FIG. 9 is a perspective representation of a detail of the box according to the invention in the almost final position of assembly, seeing one of the bolts (20) of the cover placed to enter the claws in a substantially hollow prismatic manner.

The box represented has a rectangular bottom and a conjugate cover.

For a better understanding of the description, the numerical references of the invention are indicated below:

1 - Box

2 - Body

3 - Background

4 - Side (s)

10 - Cover

11 - Coverage

12 - Side (s)

20 - Bolt

25 - Down

30 - Claw substantially hollow prismatic

35 - Inner end / stop

36 - Stop

40 - Cover opening

45 - Body opening

The recesses 25 between the bottom 3 and each side 4, either between the cover 11 and each side 12, are preferably used in half a square, so that when the sides are connected they are perpendicular to each other.

The bolt 20 slips into the hollow interiors of the four substantially prismatic hollow claws 30 of two adjacent sides 4 or of two adjacent sides 12.

Each bolt 20 is designed to have a wedge thickening below the head, so that part of that area between the pressure on the claws is substantially hollow prismatic 30, showing the thickest and closest part of the head of the bolt, so that it is easy to remove it in case you want to disassemble the box 1.

On the other hand, in a preferred embodiment, while the substantially hollow prismatic claws 30 of the sides 4 are arranged at the inner end 35 of each side 4, not being visible from the outside when the body 2 is mounted, the claws of the substantially hollow prismatic shape 30 of the sides 12 are arranged in the stops 36 of the sides 12, being visible from the outer side when the cover 10 is mounted.

This conception, which allows the realization of the body 2 of the box 1 without any occupation of outer space and also allows the realization of the lid 10 without any occupation of interior space, enables the perfect dimensional adjustment between body and lid.

The possibility is provided that the box is provided with one or more openings 40 and 45 for content ventilation.

The lid 10 can have two openings 40, opposite and conjugated with the openings of the body 45, which not only serve that purpose as they serve to remove the lid from the box in a very practical way.

In addition, when the boxes according to the present invention are stacked, it is easy to remove from that stack one that is in a lower position, being sufficient to put the fingers in the openings 40 and / or 45 and pull the box in question.

Each planned body 2 occupies, in height, its thickness plus the thickness of a claw.

Each planned cover 10 occupies only its thickness in height.

It is possible, for space saving in stacking and transport, to offset the substantially hollow prismatic claws of bodies 2 stacked adjacently, so that the peripheral contour of multiple stacked bodies 2 can be equal to the contour of a single body 2.

As for the cover 10, both in relation to the two contiguous bodies 2 of claws of substantially hollow prismatic shape 30 offset from each other, the height occupied, when stacked, is as previously referred to.

In an alternative embodiment, the body 2 can be constructed in the same manner as the cover 10, that is, the substantially hollow prismatic claws 30 of the sides 4 are arranged in the stops 35 of the sides 4, being visible from the outer side when the box 10 is mounted. In this alternative concretion, as is evident, the dimensions of the cover must be such that it can be fitted in the body 2.

In this alternative concretization, each planned body 2 and each planned cover 10 occupy only its thickness in height.

In addition, any box according to the invention, when not used as a storage box, can be planned and stored taking up a minimum of space.

The box according to the present invention is simple to make, it is simple to assemble and disassemble, it is not necessary to resort to any tool, and it is versatile in terms of its use, either as an display box, or as a storage box.

In addition, one or several sides and also one or even all sides can have color that facilitates the identification of the ordered objects, without ceasing to be visible from the outside.

It is possible to proceed to the labeling in the mold, IML, and it also confers a great advantage in the processes of storage and sale in the case of products such as footwear.

The box according to the invention can be produced, for example, in transparent "PP RONDOM".
