Claims18
A snus container, comprising:
- a base and a lid, said base and lid overlapping to define a first compartment for storing fresh snus, a second compartment formed in one of the lid and the base for storing used snus, the second compartment including a bottom wall, two long side walls and a short side wall, the side walls each having a lower side wall portion extending from an edge of the bottom wall, a step extending outwardly therefrom, and an upper side wall portion parallel to the lower side wall portion;
- and
- a cover received in the second compartment and configured to slide between an open position and a closed position and allow access to the second compartment when the cover is in the open position, the cover including opposing cover side walls depending therefrom, each cover side wall dimensioned to substantially conform with a depth of a corresponding upper side wall portion, the container configured such that a top wall of the cover lies planar with or below an upper wall of the lid, the cover being slidable to overlap the side wall steps and abut the upper side wall portions when the cover is in the closed position.
A snus container, comprising:
- a base comprising a circular bottom wall and a side wall attached to the circular bottom wall and upstanding from the periphery of the circular bottom wall;
- a lid comprising a circular upper wall and a peripheral wall attached to the circular upper wall, said lid having an inner diameter substantially corresponding to an outer diameter of an upper portion of the circular bottom wall;
- a first compartment for snus defined in the base;
- and
- a second compartment for used snus formed in the lid, the second compartment including a slidable cover received therein, a second compartment bottom wall, and two long side walls each having a lower side wall portion extending from an edge of the second compartment bottom wall, an outwardly extending step, and an upper side wall portion parallel to the lower side wall portion, the slidable cover being slidable to allow access to the second compartment when the cover is open, the slidable cover including two long side walls dimensioned to substantially conform with a depth of a corresponding upper side wall portion, and at least one arcuate short side wall such that the at least one arcuate short side wall lies proximate to a section of the peripheral wall of the lid when the cover is closed;
- the container configured such that a top wall of the cover lies planar with or below the circular upper wall of the lid.
