Abstract (en)

A box formed from a single piece of punched and crease-lined cardboard sheet, to contain loose tablets and enable these tablets to be released from the box one at a time. The box is defined by lateral walls (1-4) and by two end walls (22,41), in one of which an aperture (31) is provided, to correspond with a hole (32) provided in a movable panel (42) which can be manually moved, this latter being slidably positioned below said end panel: both said aperture and hole have greater dimensions than said tablets. The movable panel can be moved with the finger of one hand between a closure position where said aperture with said hole do not register, so preventing the release of tablets from the box, and an opening position where the aperture and the hole are superposed.
