CONTAINER FOR LIVE BAIT AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME (VERSIONS) Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC A01K97/00 

FIELD: manufacturing technology.

SUBSTANCE: container includes housing and hinged cover and is made in the form of triangular prism. Swivel flap between the cover and housing is made using two flexible elements fixed on the corresponding external and internal surfaces of the cover and housing to make the axis of rotation along fold line of flexible elements. In another version, hinged cover plate is made of two sections, and they are also connected to each other by flexible elements similarly. Method of producing container envisages gluing outer flexible element on the outer surface of the container and closed cover. Open cover is aligned with the housing tightly, thus providing coupler lateral surface of the cover to lateral face of the housing. Then inner flexible element is glued on inner vertical surface of the housing and the plane formed by inner surface of cover and upper end surface of housing wall. Flexible elements at folding line form an axis of cover rotation relative to the housing. In another version, container is made similarly but cover is made of two sections to form a rotation axis of sections relative to each other along folding line of flexible elements.

EFFECT: simplified design and technology of container manufacture.
