Claim:
A pot-shaped vessel, comprising; a bucket body including an edge having an outwardly projecting circumferential flange formed thereon and a lid having a circumferential rim formed thereon, said rim including a free end edge, said lid latchingly connected to said outwardly projecting circumferential flange such that in a latching position said free end edge of the circumferential lid rim is covered by a region of said bucket body circumferential flange, and a tab having a pivot axis, an inner longitudinal edge and an edge remote from said pivot axis, said tab which serves for unlatching lifting of said lid in a partial circumferential region of said bucket body circumferential flange and interrupts said flange is pivotable relative thereto such that said edge remote from said pivot axis moves away from said bucket body out of a locking and lid latching position in which said tab is aligned with said bucket body circumferential flange into a lid lift-off position, characterised in that said tab is connected pivotably about said pivot axis which is approximately perpendicular to or inclined at an acute angle to the horizontal plane of the lid, to said circumferential end edge of the bucket body circumferential flange or to said bucket body and that said tab is provided at an inner longitudinal edge which is at least partially covered by said circumferential lid rim with a cam track which comes into operative relationship with said free end edge of said circumferential lid rim upon pivotal movement of said tab.
