Abstract: A hot fat transporting vehicle consisting of a normally upright container, having an inlet port at its top end to facilitate the collection of hot fats, and a means for transporting said container safely. The container is held stable while in its upright position by the cooperative supporting action of the outwardly extending wheels and support legs connected thereto, said wheels being carried by an axle transversely mounted between a pair of axle struts. For increased stability, the wheels and support legs extend downwardly and outwardly beyond the vertical confines of the container. Further safety is provided by a baffle plate which is constructed and arranged to function as a safety shield from the hot container at all times. The baffle plate, along with various conveniently located insulated handles, and the port covering means provide for safe transportation of the hot fats upon said wheels to a main storage vat.

Abstract: A normally upright closed container having foot supports and wheels attached thereto to facilitate the transportation and storage of hot fats and greases. A perforated baffle plate having supporting channels spaced from the container and attached thereto supplies adequate support for the container when in the horizontal position and protects the operators from exposure to dangerous heat while the container is in the upright position. Further safety is provided through insulated handles and a closure member covering the off-set inlet to the container. The container is filled in the horizontal position while resting on the baffle plate and wheels. An insulated handle carried by the axle and a dumpster-engaging flange on the back side of the container are provided to facilitate the safe disposal of the container's contents into a main dumpster.
