CARRYING CASE

Abstract

A carrying case is configured to accommodate a plunger having a plunger base mechanically coupled to a plunger handle. The carrying case includes a case mechanically coupled to a door. A divider is mechanically coupled to the case. The divider separates the case into an upper compartment and a lower compartment. The divider further stabilizes the case and makes the case resistant to torsion. A door divider is mechanically coupled to the door to make the door resistant to torsion. The divider further includes a plunger handle slot configured to accommodate the plunger handle while accommodating gloves in the upper compartment.

Description

BACKGROUND

The embodiments herein relate generally to systems useful for carrying hand tools.

Prior to embodiments of the disclosed invention, there was no casing that could effectively and discretely carry a plunger. Embodiments of the disclosed invention solve this problem.

SUMMARY

A carrying case is configured to accommodate a plunger having a plunger base mechanically coupled to a plunger handle. The carrying case includes a case mechanically coupled to a door. A divider is mechanically coupled to the case. The divider separates the case into an upper compartment and a lower compartment. The divider further stabilizes the case and makes the case resistant to torsion. A door divider is mechanically coupled to the door to make the door resistant to torsion. The divider further includes a plunger handle slot configured to accommodate the plunger handle while accommodating gloves in the upper compartment.

In some embodiments a handle can be mechanically coupled to a top case surface to facilitate transportation of the case. A leak guard can be mechanically coupled to a front case surface to form a cavity on a bottom of the case wherein the cavity is configured to accommodate the plunger base.

In some embodiments, a plurality of latch catches can be mechanically coupled to the case. A plurality of latches can be mechanically coupled to the door. Attaching the plurality of latches to the plurality of latch catches locks the case to the door.

In some embodiments, the case can be a double case. The door can be a double case door. The divider can be a double case divider configured to accommodate both the plunger and a sink plunger.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN EMBODIMENTS

By way of example, and referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, one embodiment of the carrying case comprises case 10 mechanically coupled to door 12 with a plurality of hinges 22. Case 10 is mechanically coupled to divider 14 which separates case 10 into an upper compartment and a lower compartment. Divider 14 further stabilizes case 10 and makes case 10 resistant to torsion. Likewise door 12 is mechanically coupled to door divider 16 to make door 12 resistant to torsion. A top case surface is mechanically coupled to handle 20 to enable easier transportation of case 10. A front case surface is mechanically coupled to leak guard 28 forming a cavity on the bottom of case 10.

Case 10 is mechanically coupled to a plurality of latch catches 26. Door 12 is mechanically coupled to a plurality of latches 24. A user can lock case 12 to door 12 by attaching the plurality of latches 24 to the plurality of latch catches 26.

Turning to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, divider 14 further comprises plunger handle slot 18. Plunger handle slot is arranged to accommodate plunger handle 32. Plunder handle 32 is mechanically coupled to plunger base 34. Plunger base 34 rests in the cavity such that gloves 30 can fit between plunger handle 30 and the back of case 10.

Turning to FIG. 5, the double carrying case comprises double case 36 mechanically coupled to double case door 28 with hinges 22. Double case 36 is mechanically coupled to double case divider 40 which separates double case 36 into an upper compartment and a lower compartment. Divider 40 further stabilizes double case 36 and makes double case 36 resistant to torsion. Likewise, double case door 38 is mechanically coupled to double case door divider 42 to make double case door 38 resistant to torsion. A top double case surface is mechanically coupled to double case handle 46 to enable easier transportation of double case 36. A front double case surface is mechanically coupled to double case leak guard 48 forming a cavity on the bottom of case 10.

Double case divider 40 further comprises a plurality of plunger handle slots 44. Each plunger handle slot 44 is arranged to accommodate either plunger handle 32 or sink plunger handle 50. Plunder handle 32 is mechanically coupled to plunger base 34. Plunger base 34 rests in the cavity such that gloves 30 can fit between plunger handle 30 and the back of case 10. Likewise, sink plunger handle 50 is mechanically coupled to sink plunger base 52 this forms the sink plunger.

Persons of ordinary skill in the art may appreciate that numerous design configurations may be possible to enjoy the functional benefits of the inventive systems. Thus, given the wide variety of configurations and arrangements of embodiments of the present invention the scope of the invention is reflected by the breadth of the claims below rather than narrowed by the embodiments described above.
