Various types of containers and latching systems exist. Containers may be used for food, beverages, and other materials or items. Latching systems exist to lock the containers in a closed configuration. However, conventional containers and latching systems are often not very durable and may not be easy to use. For instance, containers may not be strong enough to hold certain items and may not be strong enough to hold items on top of the container. Additionally, some latching systems may engage when a user does not want the system engaged and in other cases may not provide a sufficient lock between for the container. In such arrangements, these and other deficiencies may render the container and/or latching system virtually useless.

In some examples, the outer shell may be formed of a plastic material, such as polyethylene, that is molded to form both the base 4 and lid 5 portions. In some examples, the insulating portion (not shown) may be formed of an insulating material that exhibits low thermal conductivity. For instance, the insulating portion may be formed of (or filled with) a polymer foam, such as polyurethane foam. Additional or other insulating materials may be used without departing from the invention, including for example, vacuum insulated panels. In some arrangements, the outer shells of the base 4 and lid 5 portions may be formed using an injection molding or roto-molding/rotational molding processes as would be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art (not shown). However, various other types of molding or other manufacturing processes (e.g., stamping, casting, forging, and the like) may be used to form the container without departing from the invention.

The ramped surfaces 371 may angle downward from the interface surface 336 of the base 304, where the interface surface 336 may be substantially flat and extend around on at least three sides of the perimeter of the base 304. The interface surface 336 of the base 304 may contact the interface surface 335 of the lid 305 when the container 302 is in the closed position. The ramped surface 371 may angle downward from the interface surface 336 approximately 45 degrees or within a range of 30 and 60 degrees, or within a range of 20 to 80 degrees. The ramped surface 371 may prevent the latch assembly 400 from getting stuck on the base 304 when closing the container 302 and may also contact the lower portion of the latch assembly 400 as the lid 305 is closed to push the latch assembly 400 out of the way of the base when the lid 305 is closed as shown in
The base 304 may further include a plurality of engaging members 337 that extend from the interface surface 336 of the base 304. The engaging members 337 may be positioned outward of the ridge 334. The engaging members 337 may extend into recesses or cavities 339 on the lid 305. The interaction between the engaging members 337 and the recesses 339 may provide additional structural support to strengthen the joint between the lid 305 and the base 304 when the container 302 is in a closed position and when multiple containers are stacked or additional items are placed on top of the container 302. The base 304 may have any number of engaging members 337. For example, the exemplary embodiment illustrates four engaging members 337, but the base 304 may comprise two engaging members, three engaging members, five engaging members or greater. The number of recesses 339 on the lid 305 may be equal to the number of engaging members 337 and located on the lid 305 at a location that corresponds with each engaging member 337 of the base 304. The engaging members 337 in the exemplary embodiment have a substantially square cross-sectional shape, but may have any cross-sectional shape, like a circle, triangle, or other polygon. Each engaging member 337 may have a height that is less than or equal to the width of the engaging member 337. Additionally, while the engaging members 337 and the recesses 339 of the exemplary embodiment are located on the first side 308 of the container 302, the engaging members 337 and the recesses 339 may be on any side and may have embodiments where they are positioned on multiple sides.
As another feature, base 304 may have a plurality of tabs 321 positioned along the interior surfaces 306A of the sidewall structure 306 of the base 304. For example, as shown in
Each tab 321 may extend from the interior surfaces 306A of the sidewall structure 306 and include an upper support surface 323, an opening 324 extending through the upper support surface 323, and a pair of side surfaces on either end of the tab 321. The upper support surface 323 of each tab may provide an engaging surface to support various accessories within the interior of the container 302, like a tray 500 as discussed further below. The upper support surfaces 323 of the plurality of tabs 321 may be substantially coplanar with each other to allow the support surfaces 323 to hold an accessory that may extend across the base 304 and be supported by multiple tabs 321. The upper support surfaces 323 of the tabs 321 may be positioned in an upper region of the interior surfaces 306A at a height that is greater than fifty percent of the height of the interior portion of the base portion. As another option, the upper support surfaces 323 of the tabs 321 may be positioned at a height that is greater than sixty percent of the height of the interior portion of the base portion, or even greater than seventy percent of the height of the interior portion of the base portion. In order to minimize the impact to the interior space, each tab 321 may have a low profile such that each tab 321 may extend a distance of less than one inch from the interior surface, or less than 0.5 inches, or even less than 0.25 inches. Additionally, the openings 324 may have any shape, but may be preferably elongated in shape. The openings 324 may provide attachment points for straps or other attachment means to further support different accessories.
As another option a pair of tracks 326 may be positioned along at least two of the interior surfaces 306A of the sidewall structure 306. As shown in the exemplary embodiment, a pair of tracks may be positioned on each of the interior surfaces of first and second sides 308, 310. Each of the pair of tracks 326 may be centrally located such that they are aligned with the pair of tracks 326 on the opposing interior surface. Each of the tracks 326 may extend from the interior surfaces of the base 304 and have a height that extends along a majority of the height of the interior portion. In order to minimize the impact to the interior space, each track 326 may have a low profile such that each track 326 may extend a distance of less than one inch from the interior surface 306A, or less than 0.5 inches, or even less than 0.25 inches. The pairs of tracks 326 may support a removable divider wall 510, which may also serve as a cutting board, to separate the interior of the container into two portions to better organize the items being stored. Each of the tracks 326 may have a plurality of détentes or protrusions to securely hold the divider wall 510 to prevent it from moving and limit any vibration.
Similar to the example container 302 discussed above, the embodiment of
As shown in
Each handle 340 may have an opening 341 extending through the handle top surface 343 of the handle 340 where each opening 341 may align with an opening 349 of the lid 305. Thus, with the aligned openings 341 of the handle and openings 349 of the lid 305 allow locations for a strap or similar device to pass through the openings 341, 349 to anchor or tie down the container 302. Each opening 341, 349 may have an elongated shape and may all have substantially the same length and width. Thus, these openings 341, 349 may provide versatility to the user for other operations beyond just anchoring the container 302. To further assist with anchoring or securing the container 302, the lid 305 may have recesses or channels 351 that align with the openings 349 to provide guide surfaces for a strap to tie down the container 302. As another option, clips 520 may be inserted through the openings 341 to provide an additional location to use a hook and loop type connection to add further versatility of options to hold additional accessories as shown in
The lid 305 of the container 302 may further comprise a plurality of clips 315 positioned along an interior surface 309 of the lid 305. For example, as shown in
Each clip 315 may extend from interior surfaces of the lid 305 and may include an engaging member 317 and an opening 319 extending through the engaging member 317. The openings 319 may be elongated in shape or alternatively may have any shape. In addition, the openings 319 of the clips 315 may have a similar width as the openings 324 of the tabs 321. These openings 319 may provide attachment points for straps or other attachment means to further support different accessories as shown in
As discussed above with respect to lid 5, lid 305 may include a recess 332 that may seat a gasket 330 where the recess 332 extends around a perimeter of the lid 305. The recess 332 may be positioned within the interface surface 335 of the lid 305. The recess 332 may include a plurality of retaining members 333 extending from the sides of the recess 332 as shown in
In some embodiments, the bottom portion 320 may also and/or alternatively include one or more feet 322, which may support the container 302 on a surface 1 such as a table, the ground, a vehicle bed, or the like. The feet 322 may be formed separately from a non-skid material like a rubber or elastomer and attached to the base 304 after being formed. The feet 322 may have a height that is considered “low profile” that allows the container 304 to be slid along one of its edges when the container 302 is tilted at an angle greater than 15 degrees relative to the surface 1 supporting the container 302 as shown in
The locking member 430 may include a base portion 440 and a plurality of hook portions 442 extending inward from the base portion 440. The plurality of hook portions 442 may be spaced apart from each other by a gap 441. Each hook portions 442 may each include a lower surface 444 and an inward facing surface 446. As shown in
The latch body 402 may include a plurality of ribs 413 along the inner surface 408 from the upper portion of the inner surface 408 towards the locking member 430. The ribs 413 may each have a contoured height such that each rib 413 has a lower height in an upper region than in the lower region as the rib extends toward the locking member 430. The ribs 413 help to strengthen the latch body 402 while reducing the overall weight of the latch assembly 400.
Similar to the latch assembly 100, the latch body 402 may also be pivotally engaged with an activating member 470. The activating member 470 may also be engaged with the locking member 430 and may be configured to move the locking member 430 from the downward position to the upward position. The activating member 470 may be pivotally engaged to the latch body 402 by a hinge 472 extending through the latch body 402 and the activating member 470. The activating member 470 may include a grip portion 474, an activating barrel 476, and one or more arms 478 connecting the grip portion 474 and the activating barrel 476 where the activating barrel 476 may include a raised portion 482. The raised portion 482 and activating barrel 476 may be joined together along a substantially flat contact surface 483. In order to adequately support the activating barrel 476, the interior surface 408 of the latch body 402 in that region may be substantially parallel to the contact surface 483 to support the contact surface 483 and thus assist in supporting the activating barrel 476 and keep the activating member 470 from rotating backward beyond the outer surface 410 of the latch body 402. As another option, the grip portion 474 may include a ridge 475 extending at least a portion of the length of the grip portion 474 to further assist a user in gripping the grip portion 474 without slipping.
As discussed above, the ramped surface 371 acts to both protect the latch assembly from getting stuck on the base 304 as well as acting to help position the latch assembly to properly engage the latch keeper 370.
As another option, as illustrated in
As shown in
To enhance the friction fit between the strap 600 and the openings 341, the elongated member 608 of strap 600 may have a width at each end portion 616 that is greater than the width of the opening 341 on the handle 340. The width, W1, of the elongated member 608 may be the distance from a first side 630 to a second side 632 of the elongated member 608, while the width, W2, of the opening 341 may be measured as the distance across the span between the smaller ends of the elongated opening 341. In some examples, the width, W1, of the base member 602 may be approximately 5 percent greater than the width, W2, of the opening 341, or may be within a range of 3 percent to 7 percent greater than the width, W2, of the opening 341. The width, W1, of the base member 602 may be a constant width, where the width, W1, may be approximately 38 mm or within a range of 35 mm to 41 mm, or alternatively, base member 602 may have a variable width where the width of the base member 602 may have a width that is less in a central region that extends through the carry handle 610 than the width of the base member 602 at the end portions 616 as shown in
As shown in
As discussed above, the carry strap 600 may include a base member 602 having a first end 604, a second end, 606 and an elongated member 608 extending between the first end 604 and the second end 606, and a carry handle 610. The carry handle 610 may be located in a substantially centered position along the overall length, L, of the carry strap 600. In addition, the strap 600 may include a pair of overlap regions 634 arranged a fixed distance from ends 614 of the carry handle 610. The overlap regions 634 may include three layers of the elongated member 608 folded upon itself and then joined together. In some examples, the overlap regions 634 may include more than three layers. The overlap regions 634 may be permanently joined using stitching 636 such as a box-x stitch that extends near the perimeter of the overlap region 634 with a diagonal stitching region extending between the corners of the stitching. The stitching 636 may have a rectangular shape such that the box-x stitch may be approximately 30 mm in length or within a range of 28 to 32 mm and may have a width of approximately 34 mm, or within a range of 32 to 38 mm.
As an alternative to the stitching 636 shown in
In some examples, the overlap regions 634 may be joined using stitching alone, or may be joined using an adhesive, or may be joined using stitching in conjunction with an adhesive. These overlap regions 634 may provide additional strength for the carry strap 600 while also keeping the carry handle 610 in a substantially centered location along the length, L, of the carry strap 600. The overall length, L, of the carry strap 600 may have a length to enable the carry strap to clear either the front side 308 or rear side 310 of the container 302 to not inhibit a second container 302 being stacked on top of a first container 302.
The carry handle 610 may be formed from a polymer wrap around the elongated member 608 forming a smooth surface along the bottom side 638 and also have a slot 640 extending an entire length of the handle 610 along the top side 642. The carry handle 610 may have a concave curvature on the bottom side 638 as shown in
Additionally, the carry strap 600 as described above may mount similar to container 202 or may in an alternative example, the carry strap 600 may include a mechanical clip or similar mechanical structure to secure the carry strap 600 to any of containers described herein 2, 202, and 302.
Each strap handle 780 may provide a flexible interface to allow a user to lift and move container 702. Each strap handle 780 may include a strap portion 781 and a carry handle 782 where each end 783 of the strap portion 781 may have an overlap region that forms an opening to receive a pin 784. To secure the strap handle 780 to the container 702, pin 784 may extend through the opening in each end 783 of the strap portion 781 and be received in a clevis portion 785 arranged on either end of the handle 740. The strap portion 781 may be similar in material to the base member 602 and the carry handle 782 may be similar to carry handle 610 of the carry strap 600 described above.
The locking member 830 may include a base portion 840 and a plurality of hook portions 842 extending inward from the base portion 840. The plurality of hook portions 842 may be spaced apart from each other by a gap 841. Each hook portions 842 may each include a lower surface 844 and an inward facing surface 846. When the latch assembly 800 is in the locked position, the lower surface 844 of each hook portion 842 may engage the upper surface 772 of the latch keeper 770 and the inward facing surface 846 of each hook portion 842 may engage the inner surface of the latch keeper 770. Further, the rib 775 of the latch keeper 770 may fit within the gap 841 between each of the hook portions 842. Additionally, when the latch assembly 800 is in the locked position the upper surface of the engagement lugs 812 may engage the lower surface 776 of the latch keeper 770. Similar to base 304, base 704 may include a plurality of ramped or tapered surfaces 771 positioned on either side of the latch keeper 770. The ramped surfaces 771 may angle downward from the interface surface 736 of the base 704.
As shown in
Similar to the latch assemblies 100 and 400, the latch body 802 may also be pivotally engaged with an activating member 870. The activating member 870 may be engaged with the locking member 830 and be configured to move the locking member 830 from the downward or locked position to the upward or unlocked position. The activating member 870 may be pivotally engaged to the latch body 802 by a hinge 872 extending through the latch body 802 and the activating member 870. In some examples, the activating member 870 may be slidably engaged with the latch body 802. The activating member 870 may include a grip portion 874, an activating barrel 876, and one or more arms 878 connecting the grip portion 874. Activating barrel 876 may include a pair of raised portions 882, where each raised portion 882 may engage an engaging member 848 that extends from a bottom surface of the base 840 of the locking member 830. Each raised portion 882 may have a substantially triangular shape, or in other examples, may have a different geometric shape. Each engaging member 848 may be spaced apart from each other creating an opening 849 between the bottom surface of the base 840 and the activating barrel 876. In some examples, the distance between the engaging members 848 (distance across opening 849) may be within a range of 30 mm and 40 mm apart from each other. By spacing the engaging members 848 apart from one another, the latch 800 may be more robust and better able to stay closed during a high stress event such as a drop impact because the load path through the latch 800 may be improved. A portion of each guide member 832 may extend into opening 849 between the engaging members 848 of the locking member 830. As shown in
Because of its larger size, container 902 may include a pair of wheel assemblies 986 to assist a user in easily moving it as shown in
The base portion 904 of container 902 may include a pair of tracks 926 positioned along at least two of the interior surfaces 906A of the sidewall structure 906. As shown in the
Base 904 may also include a plurality of tabs 921 similar to tabs 321 discussed above positioned along the interior surfaces 906A of the sidewall structure 906. For example, as shown in
In some examples, the tracks 926 and corner supports 992 may be formed with the sidewall structure 906 as a unitary member. Alternatively, the tracks 926 and corner supports 992 may be formed separately and permanently attached using a polymer welding technique, such as Emabond®, or attached using an adhesive or other permanent joining technique.
Similar to the other containers disclosed herein, lid 905 may be pivotally attached to base 904. In some examples, lid 905 may also have a lid support member 1000. The lid support member 1000 may releasably or permanently attach to the interior surface 909 of the lid 905. Portions of the lid support member 1000 may contact an interior surface 909 of the lid 905 to provide additional flexural strength to lid 905 during loading, such as when heavy items are placed on top of the lid 905. In addition, the lid support member 1000 may act as a molle board to allow various accessories 550 or other items to be releasably connected to the lid support member 1000 to allow a user easy access to these items. The various accessories 550 may be secured to the lid support member 1000 using straps 1030 that extend through openings in the lid support member 1000. As shown in
As shown in
In addition, a majority of the front lateral ribs 1004 may have a lateral rib opening 1022 that extends through the rib 1004. The lateral rib opening 1022 may be located between the front surface 1002 and an outward facing surface 1024 of each connecting member 1020. In some examples, each of the front lateral ribs 1004 may have a lateral rib opening 1022. Each lateral rib opening 1022 may be elongated in shape and create a pathway to route a strap 1030 through the rib opening 1022 to secure an item to the lid support member 1000. Similarly, a majority of the front longitudinal ribs 1006 may have a longitudinal rib opening 1026 that extends through the rib 1006. The longitudinal rib opening 1026 may be located between the front surface 1002 and an outward facing surface 1024 of each connecting member 1020. In some examples, each of the front longitudinal ribs 1006 may have a longitudinal rib opening 1026. Each longitudinal rib opening 1026 may be elongated in shape and create a pathway to route a strap 1030 through the longitudinal rib opening 1026 to secure an accessory 550 to the lid support member 1000. The plurality of lateral and longitudinal rib openings 1022, 1026 create multiple pathways to receive a strap 1030 in either a longitudinal or a lateral direction to secure an accessory 550 to the lid support member 1000. To secure an accessory 550 to the lid support member 1000, a strap 1030 may be inserted into one of either the lateral or longitudinal rib openings 1022, 1026 and then the strap 1030 may be wrapped around a portion of the accessory desired to be attached and then secured to itself with a hook and loop type connector or other type of connection. Alternatively, the accessory 550 may have an integral or removable strap 1030 that may be routed through one of the rib openings 1022, 1026 to secure the accessory 550 to the lid support member 1000.

The openings 1114 may have an elongated shape. In some examples, the openings 1114 may have a rectangular shape with a length that may be two times or three times the width. In addition, an opening support rib 1116 may extend across each opening 1114. The opening support rib 1116 may extend behind each opening 1114 and may be spaced a predetermined distance from the rear surface 1106 creating a gap 1118 between an edge 1120 of the opening support rib 1116 and an end 1122 of the opening 1114 to route a strap from an item attached to the lid support member 1100. The gaps 1118 may be arranged near both ends 1122 of the openings 1114. In addition, the lid support member 1100 may act to allow various accessories 550 shown in
As another option, container 902 may have a lid stay rod assembly 1140 that extends between base 904 and lid 905 to prevent the lid 905 from accidentally closing when the lid 905 is in a fully open configuration (i.e. lid 905 is oriented approximately perpendicular to the base 904). The lid stay rod assembly 1140 may be a telescoping assembly that automatically locks into a rigid structure when the lid 905 is opened to the fully open configuration. The lid stay rod assembly 1140 may require a user to activate a release mechanism 1142 to allow the lid 905 to close. The lid stay rod assembly 1140 may be pivotally attached to both the lid 905 and the base 904 to allow the rod assembly 1140 to fold into a storage configuration when the lid 905 is in the closed configuration. The lid stay rod assembly 1140 may be arranged near the right side 912 of the sidewall structure 906. Alternatively, the lid stay rod assembly 1140 may be arranged on left side 914 of the sidewall structure 906. While shown in container 902, a similarly arranged lid stay rod assembly 1140 may be included in any of the containers described herein.
As discussed above, container 902 may include a plurality of latch assemblies 800 that are positioned on the lid 905 to engage latch keepers 970 positioned on the front side 908 of the sidewall structure 906 and on the sides 912, 914 of the sidewall structure 906. When the lid 905 is pivotally connected to the base 904 with a hinge, the lid 905 may open with an arc-like movement as it pivots about the hinge. To ensure that the latch assemblies 800A arranged on the sides 912, 914 do not bind and/or inhibit the opening or closing of the lid 905, sides 912, 914 of the sidewall structure may include a kick out rib 1170. Similar to bases 304 and 704, base 904 may include a plurality of ramped or tapered surfaces 971 positioned on either side of the latch keeper 970. The ramped surfaces 971 may angle downward from the interface surface 936 of the base 904. Ramped surfaces 971 may include a first ramped surface 971 adjacent a first end of the latch keeper 970A and a second ramped surface 971 adjacent a second end of the latch keeper 970A. A kick out rib 1170 may extend from sides 912, 914 of the sidewall structure 906 or may extend from either or both of the ramped surfaces 971 that are positioned on either side of the latch keeper 970A as shown in
As discussed above, each latch assembly 800 may be pivotally engaged with the lid 905 using a hinge or latch pin 806. Each latch assembly 800 may engage a latch keeper 970 when the latch assembly 800 is in the locked position. Each latch keeper 970A may be arranged on sides 912 and 914 of the sidewall structure 906 may include an upper surface 972, an inner surface, a lower surface 976. In some examples, the kick out rib 1170 may extend from the ramped surfaces 971 and may be arranged on opposite ends of the ramped surfaces 971. Ramped surfaces 971 may have the same properties as ramped surface 371 described above. As shown in the illustrated example, a kick out rib 1170 may extend from an upper portion of the ramped surface 971 or may extend from an edge of the interface surface 936 of the base 904. Each kick out rib 1170 may extend outward beyond a front surface 977 of the latch keeper 970. Each kick out rib 1170 may have an upper ramped surface 1172 that extends outward and downward in a diverging manner from the ramped surface 971 and a lower ramped surface 1174 that converges toward the upper ramped surface 1172. In some examples, the upper ramped surface 1172 may be substantially coplanar with the ramped surface 971. A rounded edge 1176 may extend between the upper ramped surface 1172 and the lower ramped surface 1174. In addition, when the lid 905 is in the closed configuration, the kick out rib 1170 may be positioned between the latch body 802 of the latch assembly 800 and the raised portion 964 of the sidewall structure 906.
When the lid 905 moves from the open configuration to the closed configuration, a kick out rib 1170 may contact the latch assembly 800 and push the latch assembly 800 away from sidewall structure 906 to prevent the latch assembly 800 from binding or preventing the lid 905 from closing. Similarly, as the lid 905 moves from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the latch assembly 800 may contact a kick out rib 1170 to prevent the latch assembly 800 from binding or preventing the lid 905 from opening. The kick out ribs 1170 may only be present on sides 912, 914 of the sidewall structure 906.
While the lid support members 1000, 1100, lid stay rod assembly 1140, and kick out ribs 1170 are described with respect to container 902, these features may be arranged on any of the containers described herein.
The pull handle assembly 1050 may include a pull handle 1052 pivotally attached to side 914, a primary hinge plate 1054 pivotally attached to the pull handle 1052, a secondary hinge plate 1056 pivotally attached to both the primary hinge plate 1054 and to side 914. The pull handle 1052 may include a first handle end 1060 that is pivotally connected to side 914 of the sidewall structure 906 and a second handle end 1062 opposite the first handle end 1060 and a pull handle body 1064 extending between the first handle end 1060 and the second handle end 1062. The first handle end 1060 may have a pair of engaging members 1066 that are received into the clevis portions 985 on either end of the handle 940. The engaging members 1066 may be pivotally connected to the clevis portions 985 using a pin. The primary hinge plate 1054 may be pivotally connected to the pull handle body 1064 at a location nearer the first handle end 1060 of the pull handle body 1064 than the second handle end 1062. The primary hinge plate 1054 and the secondary hinge plate 1056 may nest together such that when the pull handle assembly 1050 is in the nested configuration, the primary hinge plate 1054 is positioned between the pull handle 1052 and the secondary hinge plate 1056 and the secondary hinge plate 1056 is located between the primary hinge plate 1054 and side 914. A spring and damper may be connected between the primary hinge plate 1054 and the secondary hinge plate 1056 to bias the pull handle assembly 1050 into a nested position. Additionally, when the pull handle assembly 1050 is in the nested configuration, the secondary hinge plate 1056 and the primary hinge plate 1054 are substantially parallel with pull handle 1052. As previously discussed, when container 902 is equipped with the articulating pull handle assembly 1050, side 914 may include a recess 996 that extends a majority of the height of side 914 to allow the handle assembly 1050 to nest within the recess 996.
The pull handle body 1064 may include at least one grip opening 1068 that extend through the pull handle body 1064 to allow a user to easily grasp the pull handle 1052. In some examples, the pull handle body 1064 may include multiple grip openings 1068 to allow a user flexibility in where the pull handle body 1064 may be gripped. Each opening 1068 may extend across a majority of the length of the pull handle body 1064 and may have the same width or have different widths. As shown in the illustrated examples, each opening 1068 may be located nearer the first handle end 1060 than the second handle end 1062 on the pull handle body 1064. The primary hinge plate 1054 may be attached to the pull handle body 1064 aft of the opening 1068 (nearer the second handle end 1062 than opening 1068).
In addition,
The lid support member 1000 and pull handle assembly 1050 components may be formed from polymeric materials, which may be a filled or unfilled polymer. For example, the polymeric materials may be a PC-ABS, polyethylene, or other similar material. In addition, the lid support member 1000 and pull handle assembly 1050 components can be manufactured by polymer processing techniques, such as various molding and casting techniques and/or other known techniques. Alternatively or optionally, the lid support member 1000 and pull handle assembly 1050 may be formed of a metallic material such as an aluminum alloy, magnesium alloy, or other metallic material with a density below 3 g/cc. As another option, the container components such as the lid, body, lid support member and pull handle assembly may include a structural foam with a composite polymer material with a low density foamed core and a higher density polymer skin.
