ABSTRACT:
A case having two relatively pivotable, open ended case sections that abut at the open ends when the case is in an open position to form a walled, open-positioned to form a walled, open-topped enclosure, the case having a closed position in which the floors in the two sections are disposed parallel and the walls of the case sections extend about three sides of the region between the floors of the case sections. The case further includes a closure panel having a laminar central portion which is moved into recesses in the floors of the case sections when the case is opened so as to avoid forming a blockage between the floors of the two case sections in the open position and which is moved to a position to close the fourth side of the case in the closed position. The movement of the closure panel is effected by providing the closure panel with upturned end portions, each end portion having a pair of lugs extending therefrom toward the walls of the case sections, and providing the walls of the case sections with sockets to receive the lugs, one lug at each end of the closure panel being disposed in a socket formed in the wall of one case section and the other lug being disposed in a socket formed in the wall of the other case section. The lugs and sockets are sized and positioned so that a line between centers of the lugs will parallel a line between centers of sockets in either position and the line between centers of the sockets parallels the floors of the case sections in the open position of the case and extends perpendicularly to the floors of the case sections in the closed position of the case.
