It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved single and/or multiple cord/wire storage device that will safely secure and store including an improved single and/or multiple cord/wire storage device by combination of: a rectangular to square or round hinged or unhinged container or various sizes and made of plastic, metal, rubber, or wood with an accessible integrated slotted spool or reel storage area for cords or wires. The container includes vent holes and strap or clip slots to accommodate either custom or user obtained clips or storages or ties. The container includes a hinged or unhinged lid including a lid with an integrated slotted spool or reel featuring a center storage cup and a cover lid that when open allows the user access to the integrated spool or reel that can be securely closed and stored safely.
The lid wall 1 may include a multitude of drain ports 4 which may be apertures which extend through the lid wall 1 to allow water to drain and air to enter to dry stored parts and which may be in the form of an oval. In addition, L-shaped arms 2 may extend inward (when closed) to provide a spool for the leader to be wrapped around. The arms 2 may be positioned to form a substantial oval.
The lid wall 1 may include a fastener 3 which may be a cylinder having a center aperture in order to cooperate with a closure post 7 which may be a cylinder which extends from the bottom wall 25.
The lid wall 1 may be connected to the sidewall 23 by a hinge 5 which may be weakened material such as plastic which may be flexible or may be a post which pivots on cylinders.
The sidewall 23 may include a pair of opposing slots 9 which may extend through the sidewall 23 so that a leader external to the sidewall 23 may extend through each of the slots 9. The bottom wall 25 may include a first pair of opposed slots 10 and a second pair of opposed slots 10 to allow a strap or clip to extend through the first pair of opposed slots 10 or the second pair of opposed slots 10 so that the housing 100 may be worn by the user.
Additionally, the bottom wall 25 may include drain ports 41 which facilitate the draining of the housing 100 and the cleaning of the interior area.
The cavity formed by the bottom wall 25, the lid wall 1 and the side wall 23 may provide a hollow area for the L-shaped arms 2.
While the invention is susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments thereof have been shown by way of example in the drawings and are herein described in detail.
