  • Bucket combination
    Patent number: 7318247
    Abstract: A bucket combination has a bucket and a removable inner bucket and wringer that fit within it. The inner bucket fits on one side of the larger bucket, and has three loops with tabs that extend over an upper rim on the bucket and engage a lower edge section on the rim. The inner bucket also has a bail that fits within a recess to provide a flat upper surface. The wringer rests on top of the upper surface on the inner bucket, and has a wringing section that fits within it. Flanges on the wringer fit within the loops on inner bucket and directly engage the lower edge section on the rim on the larger bucket. The flanges have an outwardly-extending arm.
