Abstract From the Canadian patent

A container includes a container body and a lid. The lid includes a pair of pins which extend into slots in the side walls of the container body. The configurations of the slots and the pins are such that the pins can slide but not rotate in the main portions of the slot but can rotate in enlarged end portions of the slots. The position of the lid can be reversed by positioning the pins in the enlarged end portions of the slots rotating the lid 180°, and sliding the lid and the pins to the other ends of the slots. The lid can then be opened or closed while the lid is in its inverted position by sliding the pins within the slots.
