Security container with a key

In combination, a security container and key means for unlocking said container, said container including:

• a base and a cover hingedly connected to one another for movement between open and closed positions;
• a slide latch having a main wall and a pair of side walls forming a generally U-shaped cross-sectional configuration, said latch being slidably mounted in grooves formed in the cover and base for movement along the grooves between locked and unlocked positions;
• a plurality of flexible tabs formed on and spaced along one of the base and slide latch;
• along one of the base and slide latch;
• a plurality of locking projections formed on the other of the base and slide latch, said locking projections being engageable with the flexible tabs to secure the slide latch in locked position to prevent movement of the cover from closed position toward the open position;
• and
• a plurality of key-receiving openings formed in the main wall of the slide latch for insertably receiving the key means therein for engagement with the flexible tabs when the slide latch is in locked position, for disengaging said flexible tabs from the projections, to enable the slide latch to be moved from locked position to unlocked position.
