Abstract: A container for holding and transporting goods is provided. The container includes a base and a plurality of walls connected to and extending upwardly from the base to a brim to define an opening for receiving the goods. A pair of lock-lugs extend from the brim. The container also includes a handle defining a pair of lock-keys for receiving the lock-lugs and pivotally connecting the handle to the brim for pivoting between a storage position and a raised position. The lock-keys interact with the lock-lugs to establish a locked condition of the handle when the handle is in the raised position and pulled upwardly away from the base for allowing a user to pull the container across the floor with the handle and an unlocked condition where the handle is pushed downwardly when in the raised position to allow the handle to be rotated to the storage position.

Abstract: The container (20) comprises a base (22), a concave wall (24), a convex wall (26), and a pair of side walls (28) with all walls (24, 26, 28) extending upwardly from the base (22) to a rim (30) which presents an engaging area (50) having an apex (52) and midpoint (54). The apex (52) of the engaging area (50) is disposed a greater distance from the base (22) than the distance of the top (38) of the rim (30) from the base (22) along the side walls (28) and the convex wall (26), whereby the engaging area (50) presents a concave surface area for supporting the container (20) on the hip of a human body. The engaging area (50) further includes a second dimension (h2) which decreases in height along the rim (30) from the apex (52) and the midpoint (54) of the engaging area (50) toward each side wall (28). The engaging area (50) further includes a support plane (?3) which slants relative to vertical at an acute angle (?) allowing the engaging area (50) to rest comfortably on the human body.
