Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1566340A2] The box has a central base part comprising a panel (12) and a number of containers pivotally connected to the panel and arranged around this base part. The containers can be pivoted about a horizontal axis (14, 16, 18, 20) so that they are moved from a closed in position in which they are located partly above the panel into an open position pointing downwards away from the edge of the panel. A construction extending perpendicular to the panel protrudes from between the containers when they are in the closed position. The centre of gravity for the filled container is located on either side of the horizontal axis when the container is in the closed position.
