DESCRIPTION OF EXAMPLE EMBODIMENTS

[0039] This description provides examples not intended to limit the scope of the appended claims. The figures generally indicate the features of the examples, where it is understood and appreciated that like reference numerals are used to refer to like elements. Reference in the specification to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" or "an example embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described is included in at least one embodiment described herein and does not imply that the feature, structure, or characteristic is present in all embodiments described herein.

[0040] In an example embodiment, there is disclosed herein a modular toolbox that is designed and organized for the storage and transport of painting tools. The modular toolbox has modules that are separably stacked and designed to include storage for painting tools such as, for example, brushes, roller frames, roller covers, putty knives, lights, and an extension pole with compartments allowing for the storage and transport of personal items. In particular embodiments, the modular toolbox includes specific storage capabilities for wet tools so that they can be stored and transported to a different location for cleaning.

[0041] Referring to the figures, Figs. 1-6 illustrate various exterior views of a modular toolbox 10 in accordance with an example embodiment. The modular toolbox comprises a bottom toolbox module 12, a middle toolbox module 14, and a top toolbox module 16. The modules can be separably stacked on each other, e.g., the middle toolbox module 14 can be stacked on bottom toolbox module 12, and top toolbox module 16 can be stacked on middle toolbox module 14.

[0042] Bottom toolbox module 12 comprises wheels 20, bottom side folding handles 22 that are pivotally mounted onto the bottom toolbox module 12, and a bottom lid handle 24. Bottom toolbox module 12 also comprises a telescopically extending handle 26 that can extend above the surface of top toolbox module 16. Thus, the bottom toolbox module can be moved by a user by extending handle 26 and rolling on wheels 20. When all three modules are stacked as illustrated in Fig. 1, the entire stack can likewise be moved by a user exerting force on the extending handle 26. Bottom lid handle 24 is attached to bottom lid 28, and bottom lid 28 is secured by bottom latches 30. Bottom toolbox module 12 also comprises external extension pole holders 32. Fig.1 shows an example of extension poles 33 inserted into extension pole holders 32 (not shown in Fig. 1, see FIG. 5). Bottom toolbox module 12 can be employed for transport and storage of brushes, paint buckets, or other equipment. In an example embodiment, bottom toolbox module 12 has an external bucket hook similar to hook 36 attached to middle toolbox module 14. In an example embodiment, the wheels 20 are attached to the axle (hidden) by a threadable fastener 94, allowing for the wheels to be removably attached and replaceable.

[0043] The middle toolbox module 14 comprises middle lid 34 and external bucket hook 36. External bucket hook 36 is attached to the middle toolbox module 14 and can carry paint buckets such as a one-gallon bucket, a five-gallon bucket, or any suitably sized bucket of paint as shown in Figs. 2 and 6. Middle lid 34 can be secured by middle latches 38. Items may be attached to the exterior of middle toolbox module 14 by using rings 40, for example by using a carabiner connector inserted into hook. Rings 40 can also be used as anchor points to secure middle toolbox module 14 during transport. As will be explained in more detail herein infra, middle toolbox module 14 can be employed for transport and storage of brushes, paint buckets, or other equipment. Middle toolbox module 14 can have integrated side handles 15 for lifting.

[0044] Top toolbox module 16 comprises a top lid 44, top latches 46, top front folding handle 48, and top lid folding handle 50. Top lid folding handle 50 is attached to top lid 44, and top lid 44 is secured by top latches 46. Top toolbox module 16 can be divided by partitions 52 and can contain a plurality of bins 54. Top toolbox module 16 can also comprise a white board 57 or other writing apparatus such as a clipboard or notebook. White board 57 or other writing apparatus can be attached to top lid 44. Lights 58 can be removably mounted to the inside of top lid 44 with a magnet or other means, such as Velcro (hook and loop). Lights such as these can be advantageous for job sites with low light or no power. Top toolbox module 16 can be used for the storage of smaller items such as sandpaper, sanding blocks, documents, gloves, and the like. Top rings 56 can be used to anchor the toolbox module 16 to a vehicle, such as the bed of a truck or inside of a van, or to attach items to the outside of top toolbox module 16.

[0045] Figs. 6A-6C illustrate various views of a first brush hanging bar 60 in accordance with an example embodiment. Brush hanging bar 60 can be implemented in either or both of bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14 to hang paint brushes or other painting equipment such as putty knives or scrapers. In at least one embodiment, the brushes can be hung while still wet with paint, so they can be transported to an area away from the job site to be cleaned later. For example, the middle toolbox module could be used to hang the clean brushes, and the bottom toolbox module could be used to hang the wet brushes, or vice-versa.

[0046] Figs. 6A and 6B show a series of support ribs 62 that can be molded into a ledge 64 on the interior area of either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14. Brush hanging bar 60 can be placed into a toolbox module such that it spans the interior volume of either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14, as shown in Fig. 6A, and rests on ledge 64 in between two of the support ribs 62. The support ribs will prevent the brush hanging bar 60 from moving along the ledge 64 and will thus help provide a stable platform for hanging brushes on bar 60.

[0047] Brush hanging bar 60 can further comprise hooks 66. A paint brush (not pictured) can have a hole in the handle, and the hole can slide over the hook 66 such that it will hang the paint brush in place. As seen in Fig. 6A, there are eight hooks 66 spaced equally along the brush bar 60. The spacing can be determined for hanging of an appropriately sized brush. In other embodiments, the spacing does not need to be equal, in order to accommodate different sized paint brushes on the same brush hanging bar. A different embodiment of brush hanging bar 60 can be dimensioned length-wise to span the toolbox module in a perpendicular direction, e.g., in the direction that is perpendicular to the embodiment shown in Fig. 6A.

[0048] Fig. 7C, illustrates an example of the shape of the brush hanging bar 60 Also, Fig. 7B shows that the portion of the brush bar 60 that rests in between support ribs 62 stays a uniform width over the total span of brush bar 60. Fig. 7C also shows that hooks 66 have a slight upward angle so that the hanging brushes are less likely to slip or fall from hook 66.

[0049] Figs. 7A-7C illustrate views of a second brush hanging bar 70 in accordance with another example embodiment. Brush hanging bar 70 can be implemented in either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14 to hang brushes and can be likewise used to hang either wet or dry brushes. Brush hanging bar 70 can be placed into a toolbox module such that it spans the interior volume of either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14, as shown in Fig. 7A, and rests on ledge 64 in between two of the support ribs 62.

[0050] Brush hanging bar 70 can further comprise hooks 72 for hanging paint brushes as described above. As seen in Fig. 7A, there are seven hooks 72 spaced equally along the brush bar 70. The spacing can be determined for hanging of an appropriately sized brush. In another embodiment, the spacing does not need to be equal, in order to accommodate different sized paint brushes on the same brush hanging bar. A different embodiment of brush hanging bar 70 can also be dimensioned length-wise to span the toolbox module in a perpendicular direction, e.g., in the direction that is perpendicular to the embodiment shown in Fig. 7A.

[0051] Fig. 7C illustrates an example of the brush hanging bar 70 shape. Fig. 7B shows that a mini-tab 68 of the brush hanging bar 70 rests in between support ribs 62. Figs. 7B and 7C show that the mini-tab 68 is wider than the span of brush hanging bar 70. Hooks 72 are generally perpendicular to the brush hanging bar 70 but have a slight upward inclination at the end opposite the brush hanging bar 70 so that the hanging brushes are less likely to slip or fall from hook 72.

[0052] Figs. 8A-8C illustrate views of a third example of a brush hanging bar 76 in accordance with another example embodiment. Brush hanging bar 76 can be implemented in either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14 to hang brushes and can be likewise used to hang either wet or dry brushes. Brush hanging bar 76 can be placed into a toolbox module such that it spans the interior volume of either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14, as shown in Fig. 8A, and rests on ledge 64. However, brush hanging bar 76 has dual-tab configuration 78 such that it can occupy two spaces in between two of the support ribs 62, as seen in Fig. 8B. Figs. 8B and 8C show that the dual-tab 78 is wider than the span of brush hanging bar 76. Hooks 72 are the same type as described for brush hanging bar 70. A different embodiment of brush hanging bar 76 can also be dimensioned length-wise to span the toolbox module in a perpendicular direction, e.g., in the direction that is perpendicular to the embodiment shown in Fig. 8A.

[0053] Figs. 9 and 10 illustrate views of a fourth brush hanging bar 80 in accordance with another example embodiment. Brush hanging bar 80 can be implemented in either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14 to hang brushes and can be likewise used to hang either wet or dry brushes. Brush hanging bar 80 can be placed into a toolbox module such that it spans the interior volume of either bottom toolbox module 12 or middle toolbox module 14, as shown in Fig. 9, and rests on ledge 64 in between two of the support ribs 62. Brush hanging bar 80 can be a metal or wooden dowel rod. While providing a maximum amount of security against brushes falling off the brush hanging bar 80 and allowing for a very high density of hanging brushes, this type of hanger can prevent easy removal of a brush from the rack. Brush hanging bar 80 can be dimensioned length-wise to span the toolbox module in a perpendicular direction, e.g. in the direction that is perpendicular to the embodiment shown in Fig. 9.

[0054] Figs. 11A and 11B show a close-up of light 58 that can be removably mounted inside top lid 44 (see FIG. 4 for example). Fig. 11A shows the front side of light 58 and Fig. 11B shows the rear side of light 58. Light 58 has light emitting element 84, which can consist of, for example, an LED or a plurality of LEDs. Metal plate 18 can be imbedded or molded into top lid 44 and can provide an attractive surface for magnet 82 on the rear of light 58 to hold light 58 in place.

[0055] Figs. 12-14 illustrate embodiments of external anchor points that can be implemented on either the bottom toolbox module 12, the middle toolbox module 14, or the top toolbox module 16. Figs. 12 and 13 show examples of anchor points that are molded directly into the toolbox module. For example, one end of a bungee cord or other connecting device can be attached to the anchor point and the other end of the cord can be attached to a truck or van during transport. Thus, the anchor points can provide additional storage and load security. The anchor points can be formed into any ideal shape for mechanical integrity, for example a ribbed geometry.

[0056] Fig. 14 shows a D-Ring as an example of a type of anchor point 56 implemented on the top toolbox module 16. This type is a metallic ring that is attached to a metal anchor embedded into top toolbox module 16 and can be used to anchor the top toolbox module 16 to a vehicle, such as the bed of a truck or inside of a van, or to attach items to the outside of top toolbox module 16.

[0057] FIG. 15 illustrates an example configuration of the middle toolbox module 14 with paint supplies stored therein. In the illustrated example, paint brushes are hanging from hooks 96 mounted on brush hanging bars 98. Other paint supplies, such as rollers, are stored at the bottom of the module.
