Abstract

See full text

A readily assembled covered container is disclosed. The container has a pivoting cover which snap-attaches to a tray. In the disclosed embodiment, bosses provided on the rear sidewalls of the tray are received in bores formed in the rear sidewalls of the cover to attach the cover to the tray. The bosses have a beveled surface that facilitates cover attachment, and each bore advantageously has a ramp-like channel associated with it that directs a respective boss to engagement within its bore. The tray nests within the inverted cover in a compact arrangement for improved packing, shipping and storing.
