Box Comprising A Hinge Device

摘要

A box comprising a box bottom part and a lid part which is pivotably supported relative thereto by means of a hinge device between an open and a closed position is particularly suited for use in the Ex area. The hinge device comprises a lower hinge part assigned to the box bottom part and an upper hinge part assigned to the lid part, which are pivotably connected to each other. To provide a permanent connection between lid part and box bottom part in a simple way and at low costs, while simultaneously said parts are pivotable relative to each other in a safe way, one hinge part is slidably supported and the other hinge part is arranged to be at least partly screw-mountable in the respectively assigned box bottom part and lid part, respectively.
