Abstract
A child-resistant container for holding at least one item includes a housing having upper and lower walls and a first tray pivotally mounted to the housing on a pivot axis. The first tray is pivotable between a retracted position in which the first tray is positioned in the housing and an exposed position in which the first tray extends from the housing. A second tray is pivotally mounted to the housing for movement between a retracted position in which the second tray is positioned in the housing and an exposed position in which the second tray extends from the housing. The first and second trays are adapted for holding the at least item. A common locking mechanism engages the first and second trays to releasably lock the first and second trays in the retracted position.
