  • the assembly 16 comprises as a trigger mechanism a light-sensitive sensor 17, which is normally covered by the flap 13 in the front wall 1 and thus kept darkened.
  • the flap 13 which is shown in FIG. 3 in the open position, is provided with a return spring which strives to Hold flap 13 in its closed position.
  • the return spring is formed by a rubber band 18 that is attached to the flap 13 in the end region adjacent to the fold line 14, is guided through a channel 19 through the mold plate 15 to the rear of the rear wall 2 and is fixed there by means of a fastening tab 20.
  • the game device 12 ⁇ comprises a cardboard blank 21 with a card-shaped lower part 22 and a card-shaped upper part 23, which have a rectangular contour corresponding to the recess 7 and are connected to one another by a fold line 24 at one of their edges.
  • the lower part 22 and upper part 23 can be glued to one another on the other three sides.
  • the lower support part 23 is glued to the four adhesive lugs 10 of the edge flanges 9 of the recess 7 by means of the adhesive layers 11a.
  • the electronic assembly 16 ⁇ of the game device 12 ⁇ is on the inside of the Ab support lower part 22 fixed and covered by the upper support part 23 to the front wall flap 13.
  • the electronic assembly 16 of the game device 12 is triggered by opening the front-side flap 13 and thus an exposure of the sensor 17 and, for example, a Christmas carol sounds with the help of the integrated music chip in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5, the triggering of the electronic unit by actuating the front wall flap 13.
  • a pull tab 25 which for this purpose consists, for example, of an electrically non-conductive material, such as plastic, and in a manner not shown in detail Trigger contact of the electronic unit 16 ⁇ interrupts.
  • the end 26 of the pull tab 25 facing away from the assembly 16 ⁇ is fixed in a suitable manner on the container in order to produce the triggering contact of the assembly 16 ⁇ when the front wall flap 13 is opened about the pivot axis defined by the fold line 14.
  • the end 26 facing away from the structural unit 16 ⁇ is connected to the inside of the front wall flap 13 via a connecting strap 27, which is shown in FIG. 4 in the half-open position.
  • the connecting tab 27 is punched out on three sides of the lower support part 22, passed through an opening 28 in the upper support part 23 and connected, for example glued, to the inside of the flap 13.
