ABSTRACT:
A case for holding and displaying objects such as drill bits has an elongated and upwardly open box, an insert adapted to hold a plurality of the objects and pivotal in the box about an insert axis between a down position wholly contained therein and an up position projecting upward therefrom, a U-shaped link having a pair of legs pivoted on the insert and a straight bight portion extending substantially parallel to the axis, interconnecting the legs, and of a predetermined bight length between the legs, and a lid pivotal on the box between a closed position engaging over and closing the box and an open position projecting upward therefrom. The lid is formed with a pivot loop through which the bight portion passes and which has a pair of outer edges spaced axially apart substantially by the bight length. Thus the bight portion engaged through this loop cannot move axially relative to the lid. The lid is further formed with a window at the pivot link having a pair of outer edges spaced apart parallel to the axis by a distance greater than the bight length and with a strut bridging the window parallel to and between the window edges so that the bight portion engages against the strut on closing of the lid. A cover plate has respective snap tabs spaced apart axially by a distance greater than the bight length and engaged snugly against the window edges.
