  • Patent number: 7340917
    Abstract: A hinge and arm adapted to attach to one end face of a rectangular ice chest, to maintain the one end face of the chest in an elevated position for draining comprising: a hinge having one side attached to the one end face so that its other side swings in a vertical plane; and a swinging arm wherein a lower portion of the arm extends beneath the ice chest to maintain the one end face in an elevated position for draining. In a preferred aspect, the invention further comprises an ice chest and the arm comprises two parallel arms each having one end portion pivoted to the hinge and a handle portion interconnecting the other opposite ends. When the hinge/lift handle is centrally mounted on the one end face and a pivot end portion of the arms is elongated to extend down from the central mounting to the beneath the bottom portion of the box then the hinge additionally functions as a lift handle.
