TOOL-BOX TRAY AND PARTITION THEREFOR.
Application filed March 4, 1926. Serial No. 92,320.
This invention relates to tool boxes and more particularly to trays therefor.
The invention has for one of its objects to provide a tool box tray involving a construction adapted to permit partitions to be readily' arranged therein when dividing it up into tool receiving compartments of the de- 4 sired number and size, the invention comprehending a tray provided in its bottom with longitudinally and transversely extending intersecting grooves for the reception of the lower edges of the partitions.
A further object of the invention is to provide partitions that may be readily placed in the grooves and secured to the tray, the invention comprehending in this con-. nection sheet metal partitions of hollow formation and rovided with laterally directed lower e ge portions adapted to be positioned in the grooves and secured to the bottom of the tray.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists of the novel construction hereinafter fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure 1 is a top plan view of a tool box tray embodying my invention,
Figure 2 is a detail sectional view taken on the plane indicated by the line 22 of Figure 1,
Figure 3 is a similar view taken on the plane indicated by the line 3 -3 of Figure 1,
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on a plane extending vertically and centrally through a tool box equipped with trays constructed in accordance with my invention, and
Figure 5 is a detail perspective view of one of the tray partitions.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description, and designated in the several views of the accompanying drawing, by similar reference characters.
In the drawing, 1 designates the body and 2 the lid of a sheet metal tool box. A handle 3 is pivoted as at 4 to the lid 2, and the bottom portion of the body 1 is d vided up 1 to compartments 6 and 7 by partitions 8 an 9. A bottom tray 10 and top tray 11 are removably arranged within the body 1, the former being supported by the partitions 8 and 9 and the latter by flanges 12 resting upon the upper edges of certain sides of the body.
In accordance with the present invention each of the trays 10 and 11 is provided in its bottom with transversely extending grooves 13 and a longitudinally extending groove14. The grooves 13 and 14 intersect each other and the latter is arranged at the longitudinal center of the tray. The tray is made of sheet metal, and the grooves 13 and 14 are provided by downwardly offsetting portions of the bottom thereof. The partitions 15 are also made of sheet metal and are of hollow formation with the lower edge portions thereof deflected outwardly to provideflanges 16. The flanges 16 fit in the grooves 13 and 14 and their outer edges contact with the side walls of the grooves. The partitions 15 may be secured in lace by spot welding or in any other suitable manner, and one of them, preferably the one extending longitudinally of the tray, is provided with a grip 17 through the medium of which the tray may be lifted from or placed in the box. The grip 17 is of subpartments the tray is to be divided up into.
The tray 10 is shown as being provided with three compartments, and to provide these compartments one longitudinal partition and one transverse partition are employed. The tray 11 is shown as provided with eight compartments, and to provide these compartments six transverse partitions and one longitudinal partition are employed. In each tray the grip 17 is located at the center so as to prevent the tilting of the tray during its removal from or replacement in the box. The trays, partitions and grips may be readily stamped up from light sheet metal, and the provision of the bottoms of the trays with the grooves not only facilitate the arrangement of the partitions but also strengthens and reenforces the trays.
It should be understood that the. drawing is merely illustrative and does not pretend to give exact proportions. said drawing is illustrative of a preferred construction, it being my expectation that Furthermore, the
various changes and modifications may be the grooves and secured to the bottom of the 10 made without departing from the spirit and tray. 1 sco e of my invention. 2; A. metal tray having the bottom'thereof at is claimed is: provided with a groove, and a metal parti- 5 1. A sheet metal tray having the bottom tion having a. laterally enlarged lower porthereof provided with grooves, and hollow tion fitting in the groove and secured to the 15 I sheet metal partitions having their lower bottom of the tray. edge portions laterally deflected to provide In testimony whereof I afix my signature. flanges, said flanges being positioned within STANLEY WALTER YABDER.
