A iiorney Patented Nov. 11, 1941 v UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE a Y j 2,262,339 Y HANDLE Larkin R. Shafier, Garland, Utah Application May 7, 1940, Serial No. 333,818. 3 Claims. (01.29443) i The present invention relates to new and useful improvements in handles and has for its primary object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, novel means whereby an ordinary tin can or similar container may be conveniently used as a cup or dipper.
.Another very importantobject of the invention is to provide a handle of the character describedwhich is adapted to be expeditiously and firmly attached to different sizes of cans or other containers.
Still another very important object of the invention is to provide handles of the cup and dipper types for attachment to a container, said handles comprising a novel construction and ar rangement whereby they. may be conveniently.
secured together for shipment.
Other objects of the invention areto provide a handle of the character set forth which will be comparatively simple in construction, strong,
' durable, highly efficient and reliable in use,
compact and which may be manufactured at lowcost. I
All of the foregoing and still further objects and advantages of the invention 1 will become apparent froma study of the following specification, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein like characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, and wherein:
Figure 1 is a view in side elevation of a dipper type handle constructed in accordance with the present invention, showing the device mounted on a can.
Figure 2 is a top plan view thereof.
Figure 3 is a cross sectional view, taken substantially on the line 3--3 of Figure 1.
tion and further being open at both ends.
designates a handle of suitable metal, said handle being substantially c-shaped in cross sec- At one end,the handle I is provided with an integral hook 2 constituting a bottle opener as well as providing means for hanging the device on a nail or other support. The handle I is mounted for silding adjustment on a resilient U'-member 3 the legs 4 of of a conventional tin can or other container 8.
The lower hook I is engageable selectively in openings 9 which are provided therefor in a metallic bar I0 having a substantially U-shaped,
Figure 4 is a cross sectional view, taken sub j stantially on the line 4-4 of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a view in side elevation of a cup type handle embodying the present invention, showing the device mounted on a can.,
I Figure 6 is a view in rear elevation thereof.
Figure '7 is a top plan view.
Figure 8 is a fragmentary view in vertical section, taken substantially on the line 8-4 of Figure 6. I
Figure 9 is a top plan view, showing the dipper and cup type handles secured together, as for shipment.
Figure 10 is a view in side elevation of the arrangement shown in Figure 9.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, and to Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive, thereof in particular,
lateral footl I on its lower end engageable beneath the bottom of the can or other container 8. A stop I2 is struck inwardly from the outer end portion of the handle I for preventing separation of said handle and the member 3. An opening I3 is formed in the outer end portion of the handle I. The reference numeral I4 designates a comparatively long opening or slot in the inner end portion of the handle I. adjacent walls of the openings I3 and I4 are pressed outwardly in a manner to provide what may be'considered pocketsor recesses I5 (see Fig. 4). The purpose of the openings I3 and I4 and the pockets I5 will be presently set forth.
It is thought that the manner of using the device will be readily apparent from a consider-.
a of said can. The handle I is then moved forwardly on the U member 3 in a manner to draw the legs thereof together, thus firmly clamping the can 8 between the hook 6 and the foot II. The device may be conveniently adjusted, to accommodate different sizes of I cans by engag- .,ing the hook I in the desired opening 9 in the I6 which accommodates the upper hook 6 when the device is attached to a small can. Also, the
hook I is engageable directly beneath the usual it will be seen that the reference numeral I bead on the bottom of the can when said can The is so small that the adjustable extension bar In is not required.
Referring now to Figs. 5, 6, 7 and 8 of the drawings, it will be seen that the reference numeral I1 designates a resilient, substantially U-shaped member constituting a cup-type handle adapted to be removably mounted on the can 8. On the upper end of the handle member I! is a depending, substantially U-shaped loop 18 which terminates, at one end, in a hook l9 engageable over the top of th can 8. On the lower end of the member I? is a depending hook 20 which is engageable beneath the bead on the lower end of the can 8.
In the drawings, the member I! is shown mounted on a comparatively small can. When the device is to be attached to a larger can, the adjustable extension bar If] is used. When the bar 10 is used the hook 20 is engaged in one of the openings 9 thereof and the foot II is engaged beneath the bottom of the can.
When the bar It) is not in use with the member i1, said member H constitutes means for holding said bar where it will alwaysbe conveniently available for use when needed. This is shown to advantage in Figs. 5 and 8 of the drawings. The hook I9 is engaged in the notch [6 in the upper end of the bar In and the resilient loop I8 is engaged with the upper portion of said bar. Then, the lower end of the bar In is secured 'to the can by the hook 2!] and the shank 2| of, said hook.
It may be well to here state that a bar It! is to be provided with each of the two forms of the device. Referring now to Figs. 9 and 10 of the drawings, it will be seen that the two forms of the invention ar adapted to be conveniently secured together for shipment. When this is done, the bar ill on the member 3 is reversed so that the foot H thereon projects rearwardly instead of forwardly. The bar IQ of the cup handle is reversed on the member I! and the loop I8 is inserted through the substantially U- shaped foot ll thereof. The hook is engaged in the notch l6 and the shank 2| is engaged with the adjacent end portion of the bar ID. The hook 20 is now inserted in the opening [3 and engaged in the pocket or recess I5 thereof and the hook I9 is inserted through the opening 14 and engaged in the recess or pocket I5 of said opening [4. It will thus be seen that the dipper type handle shown in Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive, of the drawings and the cup type handle, illustrated in Figs. 5 to 8, inclusive, of said drawings are firmly but detachably secured together.
It is believed that the many advantages of a handle constructed in accordance with the present invention will be readily understood and although preferred embodiments of the device are as illustrated and described, it is to be understood that further modifications and changes in the details of construction may be resorted to which will fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed is:
1. In a handle attachment for a receptacle, a handle, a bar having a plurality of openings therein, an element on said bar engageable beneath a receptacle, a hook on the handle engageable selectively in the openings for adjustably connecting said handle to said bar, and a second hook on the handle engageable with the top of the receptacle.
2. A handle for attachment to a receptacle, comprising a substantially U-shaped resilient member, arms projecting in opposite directions from the free ends of the legs of said member, a bar having a series of openings therein, a foot on one end of said bar engageable beneath the bottom of the receptacle, a hook on one of the arms engageable selectively in the openings for adjustably mounting the bar on the member, a hook on the other arm engageable with the top of th receptacle, and a handle slidable on the member for closing the legs thereof for clamping the receptacle between the foot and the second named hook.
3. A handle for attachment to a receptacle, comprising a substantially U-shaped resilient member, a hook on one end of said member engageabl over the top of the receptacle, a bar having a series of openings therein, a foot on one end of said bar engageable beneath the bottom of the receptacle, .and a hook on the other end of the member engageable selectively in the openings for adjustably connecting said member to said bar.
