An improved gripping member for a weight bearing container. The gripping member is specifically designed to either replace an existing gripping member, or improve a two part handle for a weight bearing container by providing a larger diameter gripping surface. The improved gripping member is formed of two mating halves that can be releasably attached to form a cylindrical gripping surface with a relatively large diameter. When attached about an existing gripping member or wire handle portion of a two part handle the inventive gripping member provides a large diameter gripping surface to distribute the weight of the container about a larger portion of the user's palm.

A lifting device for removably attaching handles to an object for lifting thereof includes a first strap having a connector engaged to a first end thereof. The connector is can selectively engage the first strap proximate to a second end thereof. The first strap is can be positioned around a circumference of the object, such as a cooler. The connector is positioned to engage the first strap to removably couple the first strap to the object. A set of handles is engaged to the first strap. A respective handle can be grasped in a hand of a user. The user thus is positioned to exert an upward force upon the object, enabling the user to lift or to tilt the object.

The present invention relates to a keg chime configured to be mounted to a keg, for example a blow moulded plastic keg. The chime may include a handle that has a waveform profile when viewed in cross-section along a length of the handle. The handle may include a first set of one or more regions of inflection that provide a first surface of the handle and a second set of one or more regions of inflection that provide an opposing second surface of the handle. The chime may be configured to be connected to a sleeve for surrounding at least part of a body portion of the keg. The interface between the chime and the sleeve may be configured to permit axially outward movement of the chime with respect to the sleeve in order to accommodate axial expansion of the keg.
