LOCKABLE CONTAINER

摘要

A lockable container for an article comprises a frame (2) which has an acces s opening (4), a closure member (10) which is pivotally mounted in relation to the frame (2), and a latch member (28) which is axial ly movable within the closure member (10) between a latched position and an unlatched position. The latch member (28) and the frame (2) are each provided with one or more interengageable detents (8, 34) whereby when the closure member (10) is in a closed position and the latch member (28) is in the latched position the detents (8, 34) are engaged and prevent pivoting of the closure member (10). Movement of the latch member (28) to the unlatched position causes the detents to disengage and permit pivoting of the closure member. The closure member (10) is provided with a locking member (22) for engaging the latch member (28) to retain it against axial movement.
