Abstract: A deck box kit formed from injection molded split plastic panels that interlock with an adjoining panel to form top, bottom, front and rear walls. The adjoining panels are secured in position with screw fasteners, and utilize integrally formed cross bracing, ribs and gussets for increased rigidity. In a disassembled state, the panels are substantially the same size, allowing efficiency in storage and reduced shipping costs by employing substantially square packaging. Further, the panels are stored in a nested configuration to eliminate the shipping of containers requiring fillers to address free air space.

Abstract: A support structure for securing a handle member to the blade portion of a snow shovel or snow pusher. The support structure includes an enclosed and contoured box portion having separated walls integrally formed to one another supporting the connection between the handle member and the blade portions of the shovel assembly. The box support structure provides lightweight multidirectional support while preventing build-up of snow and ice from the combined assembly. The support structure allows the blade member to be formed flat and smooth for low resistance operation for snow and ice removal.
