Abstract
An electronics housing includes: a housing body for attachment to a mounting rail and on which a cover is arranged which is pivotable about a pivot pin, formed on a bearing point, between an open position and a closed position; and a locking device for pivotally locking the cover in at least one pivot angle position via an interlocking connection, which is configured to be released without destruction, between at least a first and a second locking member, wherein, spaced apart from the bearing point in a radial pivot pin direction, the first locking member is arranged on the housing body and the second locking member is arranged on the cover such that actuation of the cover for pivoting out of the pivot angle position produces resilient deformation of the first locking member and/or second locking member, directed radially with respect to the pivot pin, to release the interlocking connection.
