Container assembly

A containers assembly comprising at least one first, bottom container and at least one second, top container, detachably attachable to one another by a sliding locking mechanism;

• the sliding locking mechanism interacts between the at least one first container and the at least one second container, the at least one first container is configured at a top portion thereof with a first locking member and the at least one second container is configured at a bottom portion thereof with a second locking member;
• such that when the second container rests over the first container, the first locking member and the second locking member are aligned and are configured for lockingly interacting with one another, the sliding locking mechanism comprises a sliding unit that comprises a slider member and at least one arresting member, the sliding unit being configured at the at least one first container, and constitutes one of the first locking member and the second locking member;
• and a corresponding at least one static locking element configured at the at least one second container and constituting the other one of the first locking member and the second locking member, the slider member being reciprocally displaceable along a linear sliding path extending parallel to and along a top edge of the first container, between a locked position and an unlocked position thereof,
• wherein the slider member is slidingly displaceable below a guard lip, the guard lip comprises an opening, such that the second locking member projects into the opening upon resting the second container over the first container, and
• wherein in the locked position, the at least one arresting member projects into the opening to arrest the second locking member.
