Abstract (en)
The invention provides a container having a base and a lid, the lid being attached to the base by two or more latches, which may also function as hinges. The user may completely remove the lid of the toolbox by releasing all of the latches. The base and lid together define an internal compartment when the lid is in a closed position. The at least two latches are both operable to releaseably latch the lid to the base, and at least one of the latches comprises a hinge fixing which allows the lid to pivot while it is latched to the base by the latch. Two or more latches may comprise a hinge fixing which allow the lid to pivot while it is latched to the base by the latch.
