Applicationfiled October 12, 1927. .Serial No. 225',629 l This invention relates g- .ierally to a portceptacle which is particularly adapted for use incarrying large amounts of 1naterial.
in certain occupations, as for example that of janitor or the like, it is frequently neces-' sary to'transport large masses'of material,
such as waste paper, garbage and rubbish, from certain parts or the building where the material accumulates to a central station from which it is removed from building.
It is an object of the invention to provide anew and improved portable receptacle ese pecially adapted for the convenient trans portation of material of this character, which rece'ptableis also arranged to facilitate the removal of such material'theretrom.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent from the following description and in the accompanyingdrawings, in which: Figure I is a side elevation of a preferred form of the invention showing the manner in which the receptacle is carried. Fig. 2 is a somewhat similar view showing the manner in which the receptacle facilitates the removal or"- the contents therefrom.
Figs. 3 and l aredetailed sectional'views of parts ot-tlie invention. I
In attaining the objects of the invention a relatively large receptacle 5 is provided,
which, in general, may have any preferred shape. In the present embodiment the receptacle is formed of galvanized sheet metal of substantially tubular shape and is provided with a bottom 6 secured to the sides in any suitable manner as by means of the rivets 7. If desired a reinforcing strip 8 may be secured about the periphery of the bottom. In order to facilitate the carrying of the receptacle from place to place the receptacle is provided with a concave portion 9 extending longitudinally or" the receptacle and of such dimensions that the concaved side will rest snugly upon the body of a person carrying the receptacle.
' Since the receptacle may be quite cumber-'v some means is provided which facilitates the raising of the receptacle into its proper position upon the back of a person and for carrying and retaining the receptacle in that position which, in the present instance, comprises a strap 10 suitably secured to the receptacle. Preferably the strap 10 is in the form of a relatively loose loop which'may be adjusted for the convenience of the operator in any well known manner, as by means of the adjustable buckle 11. The means by which the strap is attached to the receptacle preferably cornprises means which permits the strap to slid-e or move relative thereto for a purpose to be hereinafter set forth. Tothis' end the strap 10 is attached near the upper portionand' at one side of the concave portion of the recep v tacle by means of arela-tivelywid e substantially U shaped member 12, which is 'secured permanently through bothleg-s of the to the receptacle in any suitable manner, as by the rivets 13. In this manner an eye-is provided through which the strap passes to-be secured to the receptacle. Ifdesired, a reinforcing strip 14 may be secured across the iii-f ner surface of the receptacle at this point. The strap 10 is also secured near the bottom and onthe opposite side of the concaveportion from the Ushaped member 12 by means of a similar U shaped-member15secured thereto by meansofthe rivets 16; Preferably a handle 18 is provided for steadying the receptacle on a persons ba'ek'and' to this end the U shaped member. lo-'is'extended at one end outwardly beyond the edge of the con-- inwardly and secured tothe side of the receptacle as bymeans-of the rivet '17. In use the operator may fill the receptacle with refuse material and then by grasping the strap 10 may easily swing the receptacle into position may be most easily carried from place to place. When the operator has reached a place where'it is desired to remove or dump the material from the receptacle he may graspthe handle 18 in one hand and the strap 10 in the other and permit the receptacle to swing from its carrying position.- As the receptacle swings downwardly, the-manner in which the operator grasps the handle and the strap, causes the receptacle to swing into the position shown in Fig. 2, wherein the material may readily be ejected therefrom. During the of the upperand lower U shaped members 12 and 15 maybe changed from one side of the concave portion of the receptacle to the other cave portion ofthe receptacle and is then bent upon his back in which position the receptacle to provide that the strap may pass over the right or left shoulder of the operator as desired. I
It will be apparent from the foregoing that a portable receptacle has been provided which is simple and inexpensive in construction and Which is adapted-to facilitate the movement of material from place to place.
While the invention is'susceptible of various modifications and alternative constructions, we have shown in the drawings and have herein described in detail the preferred embodiment, but it is to be understood that we do not thereby intend to limit the invention to the specific form disclosed, but intend to cover all modifications and alternative appended claims.
We claim as our invention:
1. A portable receptacle comprising, in combination, a bottom, a side wall secured thereto, said side wall having a longitudinal portion thereof concave to fit about the back of a person, and means for supporting said receptacle upon the back of said person comprising a U shaped member secured to the receptacle near thetop and at one side of the concave portion thereof, a second U shaped member secured to the receptacle near the bottom and at the opposite side of the concave portion from the first mentioned ii shaped member, and a carrying strap passing a through both of said U shaped members, said lower one of saidU shaped members being, extended in the form of a loop to provide a handle for said receptacle.
2. In a portable receptacle having a longi the other side of said concave portion, and a handle mounted on the side and near the bottom of the receptacle and adjacent to the concave portion.
3. In a portable receptacle of the character described, means secured to said receptacle for supporting the receptacle upon the back of an operator while the receptacleis being ca'ried from place to place and for maintaining said receptacle in a tilted position when the receptacle is being emptied of its contents, said meanscomprising a supporting strap slidably mounted on the receptacle at one point near the upper portion and adj acent one side of the concave portion there of, and being further slidably attached to said receptacle at another point near, the bottom and adjacent the other side of said concave portion, and a handle secured on'theside of thereceptacle and adjacent to the lower point of attachment of the strap.
In testimony whereof We .have hereunto.
ailixed our signatures.v
