  • Patent number: 12168548
    Abstract: A wire handle accessory for use with a wire handle has a body having a first end portion, a second end portion, an upper portion, and a bottom portion, the upper portion including a channel that extends from the first end portion to the second end portion, the channel having an open top that forms a recess into the upper portion, wherein the recess is sized, shaped, and adapted to receive a portion of the wire handle that supports an object. A retention mechanism allows the wire handle accessory to be removably retained on the wire handle when the wire handle is received in the recess of the body. The bottom portion of the body includes a grasping surface that is graspable by a user when carrying the object, the bottom portion surface having a width that is larger than the width of the wire handle that is receivable in the recess so that the weight of the object can be distributed across a wider surface than when the wire handle alone is used to carry the object.
