Abstract

Folding handle for metal containers, which is made of plastic material and adopts a trapezoidal ring-shaped configuration with rounded corners, in which the section defining the minor base of the trapezium is intended to be fixed on the base or top surface of the container, said fixing section determining the axis of rotation or folding of the handle itself, while the section defining the larger base of the trapezoid defines the manual grip means for handling and transport, essentially characterized because the section intended for to be fixed with respect to the container is of circular section and has three projections, two of them equal to each other and provided in proximity to the ends of such section, the base or external surface of said projections being completely flat, while the third projection is arched and it is interspersed among the previous ones and oriented in opposition to them; it being provided that said loop fastening section is housed in a metallic semi-cylindrical tubular portion secured by conventional means on the base or upper surface of the container, such that the housing defining said semi-cylindrical tubular portion together with the base or surface the upper part of the container allows the rotation of the section of the handle located in said housing and with it the consequent reduction of such a handle, with the particularity that when the handle is positioned vertically, the flat part of the two equal projections is supported on the upper surface of the container, while the arched part of the third projection is supported on the concave and internal surface of the semi-cylindrical tubular portion itself, with a static anchoring of the handle in said vertical position thereof.
