Patent ID: 6988630

Claim:
A storage container comprising: a) A container body comprising a tubular wall, said tubular wall having an inner wall; a bottom wall on said tubular wall; a small cylinder which has at least one locking part protruding from the inner wall which establishes a rotation limit; and a tubular shaft having an outer wall, wherein said tubular shaft has a smaller diameter than said small cylinder and which has a locking protrusion ring which protrudes inward from the lower part of the inner wall; and b) a lid which has a lid plate which closes off said tubular wall; a cylindrical pin in the lower surface of said lid plate which mates with said tubular shaft and which has a locking ring which locks with said locking protrusion ring; a torque adjusting protrusion to the outer side of said cylindrical pin with an inner wall which rubs against the outer wall of said tubular shaft in the longitudinal direction to control rotational torque; and a rotation tube which hangs down and locks around said tubular shaft and which has at least one locking tab on the outer wall which locks onto said locking part, such that the lid plate rotates horizontally with regard to the container body because of the relative rotation of said cylindrical pin to said tubular shaft and said tubular shaft to said rotation tube.
