Title: Container with combined locking and indicating fastener
Inventor: CAMPBELL BRUCE
IPC: G09F3/00
Filed: 2008-10-22
Abstract: A container with a combined locking and indicating fastener is provided.  A slide fastener (16), such as a zipper, used to seal the container continues along a strip (14) projecting from the main body (10) of the container. The strip (14) has numerous lock engaging means (30), such as apertures, and indicia (32) associated with each lock engaging means (30). The lock engaging means (30) and the strip (14) are dimensioned so that a lock (34) secured to one of the lock engaging means (30) prevents the slider (17) of the slide fastener (16) from passing the lock (34). In this way, a lock (34) may be used to both securely close the container and also to indicate information about the container by means of the position of the lock (34) relative to the indicia (32).
