Embodiment Construction

[0054] Typically, a tool container 10 is provided, an example of which is figure 1 shown. The tool container 10 is arranged to receive tools, such as may be used by construction workers or the like. The tools may be received by respective compartments and / or respective tool racks, such as tool frogs. The tool receptacle is configured to releasably engage a rail, such as that of an elevated work platform (EWP).

[0055] The tool container 10 offers several advantages by virtue of its arrangement whereby the tool container 10 releasably engages a railing. For example, where the tool container 10 releasably engages the railing of an elevated work platform, the tool container 10 can be mounted on the floor of the elevated work platform so that workers do not have to bend down to pick up or change tools. or other work equipment or personal items. This setup offers benefits with regard to occupational health and safety.

[0056] The tool container can be advantageously applied ...

Abstract

A tool container (10,100) has a body portion (12,102) and a hinged lid (14,104). The lid can include an integral or moulded handle (108). The body portion can include an internal supporting frame (120) attached within and to the inside of the body. The frame can be made of metal and the body of a moulded plastic. External carrying / lifting points (114,118) are provided. Double action hooks (116) can be used to attach the container to an EWP or other raised platform. The container can also be lifted by crane for safe, inaccessible storage off the ground. The rear face (110) of the container can be curved for comfortable transport on a person's back.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a tool container for, for example, craftsman's tools or medical equipment. Background technique [0002] Working on elevated platforms can be challenging. The floor area provided by the platform is usually small and the tools are usually stored in box-like containers which occupy at least a portion of the inherently limited floor area. [0003] Further, workers using elevated platforms often have to bend down to pick up or put back tools when needed, resulting in associated occupational health and safety risks. [0004] William Carl Talbot in patent US 2010 / 0108684 discloses an object holding device for raising a working platform. The object holding device has two compartments with a channel between the two compartments. Support members extend between the horizontal bars of the work platform to support and hold the object holding device to the upper bars. Such devices require support members in order to connect the ...
