Abstract: A container, especially a bucket or similar, comprising an opening, which is orientated upwards and which can be closed by a cover, and a peripheral container edge, which is drawn outwards in a downward direction on the container wall, where the cover is detachably connected thereto and whereon at least one pivotal tab is connected in such a way that at least one part of the cover is raised due to a pivoting movement away from a starting position on the container wall, and engages with the container edge from behind with part of the pivotal tab which can be guided outwards by the pivoting movement to a position in front of the container wall and the part of the pivotal tab is prevented from being guided behind the container edge when the pivotal tab pivots back in the direction of the initial position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a container, especially a bucket or similar, comprising an opening, which is orientated upwards and which can be closed by a cover, and a peripheral container edge, which is drawn outwards in a downward direction on the container wall, where the cover is detachably connected thereto and whereon at least one tongue-like element is connected in such a way that at least one part of the cover is raised due to a pivoting movement away from a starting position on the container wall. According to the invention, the tongue-like element engages with the container edge from behind with part of the tongue-like element which can be guided outwards by the pivoting movement to a position in front of the container wall and the part of the tongue-like element is prevented from being guided behind the container edge when the tongue-like element pivots back in the direction of the initial position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a container (1), especially a bucket or similar, comprising an opening, which is orientated upwards and which can be closed by a cover (3), and a peripheral container edge (2), which is drawn outwards in a downward direction on the container wall (5), where the cover (3) is detachably connected thereto and whereon at least one tongue-like element (8) is connected in such a way that at least one part of the cover (3) is raised due to a pivoting movement away from a starting position on the container wall (5). According to the invention, the tongue-like element (8) engages with the container edge (2) from behind with part of said tongue-like element which can be guided outwards by the pivoting movement to a position in front of the container wall (2) and the part of said tongue-like element is prevented from being guided behind the container edge (2) when the tongue-like element (8) pivots back in the direction of the initial position.
