  • Patent number: 4746034
    Abstract: A portable liquid container has a four-sided shell enclosed by a bottom wall and a top wall. The bottom wall is formed by four triangular portions sloping downwardly to a delivery opening. The top wall has an upwardly sloping configuration with an enlarged opening in the middle thereof. The opening is normally covered by a lid. Two lifting channels and a delivery pipe and valve are located on the underside of the bottom wall. Four legs attached to the bottom wall support the container at a height sufficient to clear the delivery pipe and lifting channels. Leg positioners are located at the upper corners of the container and are arranged to receive the legs of a second like container stacked on top of a first container.
