1 claim.
My invention relates to a new and improved holder and carrier for containers, especially those used by-painters, although it may also be used for waste paper receptacles which are without handles. I
The object of my invention is to provide an easily grasped handle and one which gives easy access to the container, this not being prevented although it may be tilted.
These and other objects are accomplished by the means shown in the accompanying drawings, fully set forth in the following description, and more particularly pointed out in the claim.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a front elevation of my device as applied to a container.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same.
Fig. 3 is a section on line 3-3 of Fig. 1,v looking in the direction of the arrows, but the container being omitted.
Fig. 4 is a section on line 4-4 of Fig. 3, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Fig. 5 is a side elevation, similar to Fig. 2, of a modification. y
Fig. 6 is a view of a portion of another modiflcation.
In Fig. 1 is shown a handle I for carrying the container or hanging it upon a nail or spike, a recess I4 being provided for this purpose. To this handle are attached two similar straps 2 by means of a pair of rivets I6 at their upper ends and another pair I'I at lower points. It will be seen from vconverge immediately below .it until they come in face to face relation, this being also clearly shown by Fig. 4. It will also be seen from this last figure that these strips are arcuate in cross-section to conform more clearly to the wall of a cylindrical container. It will be seen from Figs. 1 to 4 that the bottom of each of these strips has a flange 3 inclined upwardly at an angle of about 45 degrees.
To the outer face of each strip 2 is fastened a clamp 4, the attachment being by means of a bolt 5 and wing nut 6, and also below this by a bolt 'I with its nut, this bolt being encircled by a coiled expansive spring 8. The bolts 5 and 'I pass through both plates 2 and both clamps 4, the openings through the plates 2 being in the form of longitudinal slots 9 which allow of considerable adjustment of the clamps to accommodate containers of varying size. The head of the bolt 5 is welded to its adjacent clamp 4 to facilitate assembly.
Y circular bottom and cylindrical sidewall.
2 The use of the device is obvious from Figs. 1 and 2. The holder is so applied to the container that one strap 2 bears upon the containers cylindrical surface with the upturned flange 3 engaging the usual ridge formed by the union of the The l expansive spring 8 causes the clamp 4 to stand away at-its lower end from the strap 2, so that this clamp may pass over the circumferential flange usually formed at the upper end of a container by the union of the top and the side wall. By screwing up the wing nut 6, the clamp 4 can be made to tightly gripI the circumferential container flange between it and the strap 2. The elongated slot 9 permits the necessary longitudinal adjustment. J
The provision of duplicate straps 2 and clamps 4 allows two gripped containers to be carried by one handle.
In Fig. 5 is shown a modification to adapt the carrier for use with a bucket which has its circumferential wall inclined. Here at the bottom of the strip 2a are secured a pair of duplicate brackets II by a bolt 5 and nut 6 similar to those used in the first form with gripping flanges I2 on a portion of each which is offset from its strap engaging portion to provide for the inward inclination of the bucket wall. Also in this modication I employ but one strap 2a, which for this purpose is offset at I5 to receive the handle I. The bolt 5 holding the two brackets II passes through a hole I8 in the strap 2a. In this modiiication the clamps 4 and bolts 5 and I and spring 8 at the top and the slot 9 are exactly as in the first form.
In the modication shown by Fig. 6 one strap 2b is used for one pair of cylindrical'containers such as cans instead of the buckets of Fig. 5.
Here the strap 2b has at its bottom a'pair of flanges 3a inclining at about 45 degrees in one direction and a similar ange 3a between the other two and inclining at about 45 degrees in the opposite direction. 4 1
The single strap form of either Fig. 5 or 6 is simpler than the double strap formshown by the first four figures, but is not so strong.
It is obvious that the brackets II may be applied to the double strap form of the first four figures, as holes I8 are provided for this purpose. This adapts the double strap form for use with buckets.
Having thus described my invention, I claim: A device of the character described comprising a vertically extending strap, a carrying handle affixed to the upper end of said strap, afpair of clamp plates each disposed upon an opposite face of said strap adjacent the upper end thereof, said strap having a longitudinal slot in the upper portion thereof, a pin affixed to one plate and extending slidably through said slot and the other plate, a compression spring surrounding said pin and bearing against the inner sides of said plates, a nut at the free end of said pin,a bolt affixed to one of said plates in spaced relation above said pin and extending through said slot and said 10 Number other plate, a Wing nut threaded upon the free end of said bolt, the lower end of said strap being centrally and vertically split into a pair of sec.
tions, and a pair of opposed upwardly extending hooks each formed by one of said sections.
FRANK A. HOFFMAN.
