FIELD: automatic device for closing of cover, preferably for usage in containers, boxes, store counters or shelving for products, for example, in self-contained containers for sweets. ^ SUBSTANCE: apparatus has cover normally set in closed position, said cover may be rotated around substantially horizontal axis, and springy device positioned on container and adapted for operating between cover and container. Springy device is positioned so that it is in strained state when cover is opened, and begins to move cover from open position to at least position wherein cover continues to close by itself under the action of gravity. Apparatus is further equipped with damper for damping cover on at least some portion of its motion path from opened position to closed position. Such construction also allows said cover to be used in containers for pharmaceutical means and hygienic articles. ^ EFFECT: increased efficiency in protecting container contents from environment due to holding of cover in closed position, and wider range of usage. ^ 8 cl, 6 dwg |
