The sides (21) contain a plurality of sliding panels (8), some with locking pins (10, 12) and some being spring-mounted panels (16). Depressing and sliding these various panels in the proper sequence enables the top lid (2) to be unlocked and removed.

The puzzle box device (1) may also have just a top lid (2) with a spring-mounted panel (35) and sliding panels (34a and 34b).
