Lid assembly for a container

Abstract

A lid assembly for a container is provided. The lid assembly includes a top panel secured to a frame member via collapsible sides that open one end of the lid while the opposing end pivots in from a closed position. A slot extends along a front side of the lid, sized to receive a utensil with a hook on its upper side which connects to the top panel of the lid. The top panel includes a transparent window for viewing inside the lid and container. A flange along the lower perimeter edge of the frame member is adapted to engage with the upper edge of the container, wherein a latch on the front end locks the lid to the container. In some embodiments, the lid assembly for a container includes the container having a base and collapsible sidewalls that can fold inwardly toward a base to reduce storage volume.
