  • Publication number: 20030116457
    Abstract: The modular box defines a longitudinal axis and comprises a main elongated container, at least one casing selectively releasably attached to the main container, and an elongated handle attached to the container. The handle comprises a handlebar of a length shorter than or equal to that of the container and of a cross-sectional surface being sized for allowing a person to manually grasp the handlebar, with the person's fingers and hand capable of entirely surrounding the handlebar. The handle further comprises spacer elements attaching the handlebar to the container in a spaced relationship therewith for allowing a person's fingers to extend between the handlebar and the container. The handlebar extends along a substantial portion of the length of the modular box along the longitudinal axis and allows the modular box to be carried by the handlebar approximately at the longitudinal position of the center of gravity of the modular box notwithstanding the longitudinal weight repartition within the modular box.
