Portable Container and Container Assembly
A portable container and container assembly provides a durable, functional and simple carry-all solution for dry and wet provisions, goods and gear. Exemplary features of various embodiments include one or more of an overmolded pad on the bottom of the container, a removable handle incorporating a releasable retaining structure, a lid that seals within the container cavity and is flush with the outer periphery of the container sidewall and/or has a cellular internal reinforcing structure, a skirt extending around the sidewall that is integral with handle mounts for the handle and/or provides a connection point for external components, and a drop-in tray with a collapsible handle.
TOOL CONTAINER SYSTEM
A tool container system includes a first tool container and a second tool container. The first tool container has a first base, a first cover pivotably attached to the first base by a first hinge portion, a first base locking member coupled to the base, a first cover locking member coupled to the first cover, and a first latch coupled to the first base and moveable between a first unlocked position in which the first cover is movable relative to the first base between a closed position and an open position, and a first locked position in which the first latch engages the first cover locking member and the first cover is locked to the first base in the closed position. The second tool container is stackable on the first cover of the first tool container and having a second locking member. When the second tool container is stacked on the first tool container, the second tool container is lockable to the first tool container when the first latch is moved to the first locked position to engage both the first cover locking member and the second locking member.
Movable platform of a suspended storage apparatus
A storage apparatus includes a pully system, a moveable platform, X-bars, a lowering and lifting means and attachment elements. The platform includes at least one support tray and side and end platform supports. The pully system includes at least one pully, a lowering and raising mechanism and at least one rope or cable, where the rope or cable is attached to at least one pully support. The lowering and lifting means turns the lowering and raising mechanism such that the rope or cable moves over pullies in the pully system to raise and lower the platform of the storage apparatus.
FLEXIBLE MAGNETIC SOCKET HOLDER
A flexible magnetic socket holder is disclosed having a flexible elongated strip having a top wall, a bottom wall, a first side wall and a second side wall. The top wall has a plurality of posts each adapted to receive a socket and having an opening on each side of the posts for exposing a magnet. The bottom wall has a retaining member extending downwardly from the bottom wall and adapted to receive the magnet. The first side wall and the retaining member have an opening adapted to receive the magnet and retain the magnet by friction fit. The second side wall is adapted to retain the magnet in the retaining member. The magnet is inserted in the retaining member through the opening in the first side wall and the retaining member. The top wall of the flexible elongated strip is adapted to magnetically hold the sockets at each post and the bottom wall of the flexible elongated strip is adapted to magnetically attach to different shaped ferrous surfaces.
Dynamically expandable rigid waistband system
A dynamically expandable rigid waistband system includes one or more rigid belt portions coupled to an expandable and adjustable waistband portion. The ends of one or more rigid belt portions are movably coupled to form a dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring. The dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring can expand or contract as the movably coupled ends of the one or more rigid belt portions move relative to each other by greater or smaller amounts. The dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring is then coupled to the expandable and adjustable waistband portion so that when the expandable and adjustable waistband portion expands or contracts, the dynamically adjustable rigid belt ring similarly expands or contracts to provide the comfort, range of motion, and adaptability of an expandable and adjustable waistband as well as a rigid structure for attaching devices safely and securely to the waistband.
TOOL AND BINDING MACHINE
A tool includes: a main body includes an output section provided on a front end portion in a longitudinal direction and accommodating a driving unit for driving the output section therein; a gripping unit provided on a lower surface side of the main body; a first hook attachment unit located on an upper surface side of the main body and to allows a hook opened at one side attached; and a second hook attachment unit located on a side surface side of the main body and allows the hook attached. The hook is attached to the first hook attachment unit so that an opening of the hook faces the front side in the longitudinal direction of the main body. The hook is attached to the second hook attachment unit so that the opening of the hook faces the lower side in an upper-lower direction.
Ratchet, Ratchet Accessory, and Kit Including the Same
A tool kit is provided that includes a tool including a handle and a tool head and a set of tool accessories configured to be coupled to the tool head. The tool accessories each including a drive end that is configured to be coupled to the tool head and a working end opposite the drive end. The tool kit includes a container that is movable between an open position and a closed position. The container includes a first portion including a first retainer that supports the tool, a second portion and a middle portion dividing the first portion from the second portion. The middle portion including a second retainer that supports the tool accessories and the container is selectively stored in a closed position where the middle portion supports the container on a surface in an upright position.
Versatile ratchet socket organizer
A ratchet socket organizer is provided, having a base upon which rotates a circular socket holder. In the center of the socket holder is a magnetized dish fixedly attached to the base and used for collecting small parts such as nuts, bolts, and washers. The base has magnetized pads on its underside so as to stick to the side of metallic objects such as tool chests. Also, there is a handle and belt clip so that a user can carry it along hands free. The socket sizes within the socket holder are clearly identified for organization. Both short and deep well sockets are grouped together.
Utility box with angled floor
Provided is a utility box, which includes a first compartment. The first compartment includes a first angled floor and a first holding unit configured to hold an article in the first compartment. The utility box also includes a first lid that covers at least the first compartment.
Ladder caddy system
A ladder caddy system is detachable attachable to a ladder top via a ladder connector, having a magnet configured below the ladder top. In an exemplary embodiment, the ladder connector is aligned with the ladder aperture in the ladder top and the main connector is inserted through the ladder aperture and into the ladder connector to magnetically couple the main connector magnet with the ladder connector magnet. The main receptacle assembly includes a main receptacle and may have a power tool retainer attached thereto and configured to retain a power tool such as a power drill. A retainer band may further secure a power tool in the power tool retainer. Other receptacles may be detachable attachable to the main receptacle assembly, such as a ring receptacle that comprises a conduit, a ring that can be slid over the power tool retainer. A detachable receptacle may be coupled to the main receptacle via a detachable receptacle connector that has a magnet that is attracted to main receptacle connector or secondary connector of the main receptacle.
