  • assembling the two ends of the blank in particular by gluing via a tab appropriate, may have been done beforehand. This assembly can be carried out at using the same type of glue or using conventional glue.
  • the first closure device comprises at least one side flap made by folding in the extension of a panel side, and a part forming a cover, to be folded down on the flap (s) side (s), the cover having on its inner surface a first zone glued, at least one side flap intended to be opposite said cover when it is in the closed position, comprising a second glued area, arranged so as to come into engagement with the first glued area when the cover is folded back in closed position.
  • the device closure may include two non-overlapping side flaps sensibly when folded over the opening, each of these flaps then comprising a glued area intended to come into engagement with a corresponding glued area of the cover.
  • bonding can take place between the "inside” surface of the cover and a corresponding surface portion of the flap which, in position closed from the box, is positioned above the other flap.
  • an additional bonding can also be provided between the "interior” surface of the top pane, and the "outside” surface of the bottom pane.
  • the closure device comprises two side flaps, each made by folding in the extension of a respective side panel, a first flap being intended, in the closed position of the box, to be positioned at least partially above a second flap, a first glued area being arranged on one face of the first flap and intended, when closing the box, coming into engagement with a second zone glued, arranged on a corresponding face of the second flap. So the opening of the cover is not prevented. However, it is not possible to access the produced due to the presence of the side flaps glued to each other.
  • the box includes a second opening in a second end of the body, opposite the first, and a second closure device associated, keeping said second closure device in the closed position being provided by mechanical means, in particular in the form of at least one tip, or other protruding portion.
