ABSTRACT:
An improved disposable receiver, formed by foldably nesting a shaped cover element into a correspondingly shaped tray element, for securely encasing sharp disposable surgical implements features a combination of reopenable retaining and locking means for retaining the receiver in the closed, nested position. In a preferred embodiment, the disposable receiver may be formed of transparent plastic material into symmetrical tray and cover portions separated by an integrally formed flexible hinge, and a number of integrally formed pressure fit snap locks are arrayed around the periphery of the receiver to provide readily reopenable closure retaining means. Additionally, the tray and cover portions are slightly pyramidally shaped to produce a receiver of high rigidity when in the closed, nested position.
