Abstract

A case for holding tools or small parts includes a basic body and a lid coupled pivotably to the basic body. The basic body has two side walls, the upper edge of which is exposed in the closed state of the lid, and therefore the lid, in the closed state, is arranged between the upper edges of the side walls of the basic body. Each side wall of the basic body forms a labyrinth seal with the respective side wall of the lid in the closed state of the case.
