Abstract (en)
A container (1) having an upwards facing opening with a surrounding edge and flange (10) means arranged in the vicinity of the container edge, said flange means adapted to cooperate with a lid (40), said lid having an edge which can engage said flange means to provide a closed container. The container comprises at least one tool arranged at the container edge and comprising a lid-engaging surface for releasing the lid when mounted on the container, said tool comprising a bracket (20) hinged to the container, the bracket being arranged such that a pivot movement outwards from the container results in the lid-engaging surface being moved outwards thereby lifting the edge of the lid outwards in the region of the tool when the lid is mounted, thus facilitating opening of the container, and a tamper-indicating means for indicating that the bracket has been pivoted outwards. The tamper-indicating means comprises an indicator member (30) arranged to cover at least a portion of the bracket in a non-engaging manner, said indicator member being attached to said container and configured to break or deform when the bracket is moved outwards. <IMAGE>
