Patent ID: 7628113

Claim:
A safe comprising: top and bottom elements pivotally coupled with one another and defining an interior compartment when in a closed position, each of the top and bottom elements including an interface surface; and a liner insert coupled with one of said top and bottom elements, said liner insert including: a liner insert body including a peripheral edge that conforms in shape to said interface surfaces on said top and bottom elements, said liner insert body including at least one flexible attachment arm defined in said liner insert body, said at least one flexible attachment arm having a retaining tooth extending therefrom; and a resilient gasket conforming in shape to said peripheral edge of said liner insert body, said gasket being coupled with said peripheral edge of said liner insert body, wherein said one of said top and bottom elements includes an undercut, wherein said undercut includes: a top surface; first and second side surfaces connected to the top surface, wherein the first and second side surfaces are substantially parallel with one another; a first end surface connected to the top surface and first and second side surfaces, wherein the first end surface is positioned at an obtuse angle relative to the top surface; and a second end surface connected to the top surface and first and second side surfaces, wherein said second end surface includes a tip portion and a concave arc portion, wherein said tip portion is flat and extends from said top surface at an acute angle, and wherein said concave arc portion extends from said tip portion and underlies said top surface thereby forming a hook-shaped fastener for attaching said retaining tooth to said undercut wherein said retaining tooth engages said undercut to couple said liner insert body to said one of said top and bottom elements, and wherein said gasket is configured to be in sealable contact with said interface surfaces of said top and bottom elements when the safe is in the closed position to substantially prevent water from entering said interior compartment of the safe.
