Abstract
A folding box with a blister pack held therein is produced from a one-piece blank, having a first tab which starts integrally from a narrow side wall and in the use position inside the folding box rises obliquely inwards from this edge toward the opposite wall and is supported resiliently against the latter. A second tab is bent back from the support point of the first tab and in the use position comes to lie between the first wall and the first tab or the second wall, and in turn carries at its edge a locking tab which in the use position engages in a hinged fashion between two blister cavities or cavity rows arranged one behind the other in the insertion direction, and thereby secures the blister pack in locking fashion without the need for beads or other deformations that affect the surface on the folding box.
