## Abstract

A package comprising a housing and a slide being slidably in a sliding direction accommodated in the housing from a locked position wherein the slide is locked inside the housing and at least an intermediate position wherein the slide is partly located outside a front opening of the housing. The housing comprises at least a bottom wall, a top wall and longitudinal side walls extending in the sliding direction, whereby the bottom wall and the top wall are connected to each other by means of the side walls. The slide is provided with at least one extension lockable under spring force in the locked position in a blind recess located in the top wall of the housing near a rear end of the housing. The at least one extension is movable against spring force out of the recess to allow the slide to be movable to at least the intermediate position. The slide is provided with at least one other extension lockable under spring force in the locked position in a blind recess located in the bottom wall of the housing, whereby the at least one extension as well as the at least one other extension must be moved both out of the corresponding recess to allow the slide to be movable to at least the intermediate position and/or the bottom wall, the top wall and/or the side wall of the housing is provided with at least one passage, through which a rear side of the slide is reachable for pushing the slide from the locked position towards the intermediate position.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A package comprising a housing and a slide being slidable in a sliding direction accommodated in the housing from a locked position wherein the slide is locked inside the housing and at least an intermediate position wherein the slide is partly located outside a front opening of the housing, which the housing comprises at least a bottom wall, a top wall, and longitudinal side walls extending in the sliding direction, whereby the bottom wall and the top wall are connected to each other by the longitudinal side walls, whereby the slide is provided with at least one extension lockable under spring force in the locked position in a blind recess located in the top wall of the housing near a rear end of the housing, whereby the at least one extension is movable against spring force out of the blind recess located in the top wall of the housing to allow the slide to be movable to at least the intermediate position, wherein the slide is provided with at least one other extension lockable under spring force in the locked position in a blind recess located in the bottom wall of the housing, whereby the at least one extension as well as the at least one other extension must be moved both out of the blind recess in the respective top wall and bottom wall of the housing to allow the slide to be movable to at least the intermediate position, while at least the bottom wall, the top wall and/or the side wall of the housing is provided with at least one passage, through which a rear side of the slide is reachable for pushing the slide from the locked position towards the intermediate position; and
wherein when seen in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction and parallel to the top wall and bottom wall of the housing, the at least one extension as well as the at least one other extension are off set with respect to each other.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The package of claim 1, wherein the at least one passage is located near one of the blind recesses.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The package of claim 1, wherein the top wall and the bottom wall of the housing are provided with at least one flexible lip being pivotable with respect to the respective top wall and bottom wall, which at least one flexible lip cooperates with the at least one extension as well as the at least one other extension respectively to move the at least one extension as well as the at least one other extension out of the corresponding blind recess.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The package of claim 3, wherein when seen in the direction perpendicular to the sliding direction and parallel to the top wall and bottom wall of the housing, the flexible lips are off set with respect to each other.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The package of claim 3, wherein at least a part directed to the outside of the housing is provided with the flexible lip.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The package of claim 5, wherein the part of the at least two parts directed to the inside of the housing is also provided with the at least one flexible lip, whereby the flexible lips of the parts directed to the outside and inside of the housing are connected to each other, whereby the at least one flexible lip of the part directed to the inside of the housing is larger than the flexible lip of the part directed to the outside of the housing.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The package of claim 1, wherein the top wall and/or the bottom wall of the housing are provided with flaps folded inside the housing, which flaps are located seen in the sliding direction near a front side of the housing, whereby the flaps cooperate with the at least one extension of the slide and/or the at least one other extension of the slide respectively to prevent the slide from being completely slid out of the housing.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The package of claim 1, wherein the housing and/or slide are made of a carton blank or plastic.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The package of claim 8, wherein the top wall and the bottom wall of the housing are provided with at least one flexible lip being pivotable with respect to the respective top wall and bottom wall, which at least one flexible lip cooperates with the at least one extension as well as the at least one other extension respectively to move the at least one extension as well as the at least one other extension out of the corresponding recess.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The package of claim 9, wherein the housing is made of a carton blank whereby after folding of the carton blank into the housing, the top wall and the bottom wall each comprises at least two parts of the carton blank located on top of each other, whereby the part of the at least two parts directed to the inside of the housing is provided with the recess.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The package of claim 10, wherein at least the part directed to the outside of the housing is provided with the flexible lip.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The package of claim 11, wherein the part directed to the inside of the housing is also provided with the flexible lip, whereby the flexible lips of the parts directed to the outside and inside of the housing are connected to each other, whereby the flexible lip of the part directed to the inside of the housing is larger than the flexible lip of the part directed to the outside of the housing.
