Container assembly with adjustable mount structures

An apparatus for storing articles, comprising:

• a frame;
• one or more mount structures adjustably connectable to the frame so as to enable a height adjustment thereof on the frame, the one or more mount structures being provided with a recess near a rear end of the one or more mount structures where the one or more mount structures are connected to the frame;
• and
• a container releasably connectable to the one or more mount structures, thus enabling a height adjustment of the container on the frame, the container having a main body and a movable structure movable relative to the main body to permit access to contents within the container;
• wherein the container has a handle for transporting the container after it has been released from the one or more mount structures,
• wherein the main body comprises at least one elongated body surface configured to slidably engage a slide surface of the mount structure;
• wherein the one or more mount structures comprises a first mount structure having the recess,
• wherein the container has a protrusion configured to be releasably received in the recess of the first mount structure to secure the container to the first mount structure;
• and
• wherein, when the container is mounted on the frame, the container is configured to be removed from a remainder of the apparatus by first releasing the container from the mount structure and then pulling the container outwardly away from the frame as the elongated body surface of the main body slidably engages the slide surface of the mount structure.

An apparatus for storing articles, comprising:

• a frame;
• mount structures adjustably connectable to the frame so as to enable a height adjustment thereof on the frame, the mount structures each comprising a slide surface;
• at least two containers comprising a top container and a lower container;
• and
• releasable connections between respective ones of the at least two containers and the mount structures enabling a height adjustment of each of the at least two containers on the frame, each of the releasable connections between a container of the at least two containers and a mount structure of the mount structures being configured to enable the container to be releasably connected to the mount structure, the releasable connection coupling the container with the mount structure along a sidewall of the container, each sidewall of the container comprising a slide surface configured to slidably engage the slide surface of one of the mount structures,
• wherein each of the releasable connections comprises one or more protrusions, each of the one or more protrusions being constructed and arranged to have (i) a stop surface provided near a rear end thereof and (ii) a ramp surface provided on an opposite end,
• wherein each of the at least two containers has a handle for transporting the respective container after it has been released from the respective ones of the mount structures, and
• wherein, when the top container and the lower container are mounted on the frame such that the lower container is disposed below the top container, the lower container is configured to be removed from a remainder of the apparatus, while the top container remains connected with the apparatus, by first releasing the respective releasable connection and then pulling the lower container outwardly away from the frame from beneath the top container as the lower container's slide surfaces slidably engage the slide surfaces of the associated mount structures.

An apparatus for storing articles, comprising:

• a frame;
• mount structures adjustably connectable to the frame so as to enable a height adjustment thereof on the frame, the mount structures each comprising a slide surface;
• and
• at least two containers comprising a top container and a lower container,
• wherein each of the mount structures comprises a connection structure that includes a stop surface,
• wherein each of the at least two containers comprises a spring-biased latch constructed and arranged to releasably engage with the stop surface of respective ones of the mount structure enabling a height adjustment of each of the at least two containers on the frame, each of the spring-biased latch of a container of the at least two containers and the stop surface of respective ones of the mount structure being configured to enable the respective container to be releasably latched with the respective ones of the mount structures, and
• wherein each sidewall of the container comprising a slide surface configured to slidably engage the slide surface of one of the mount structures,
• wherein each of the at least two containers has a handle for transporting the respective container after it has been released from the respective ones of the mount structures, and
• wherein, when the top container and the lower container are mounted on the frame such that the lower container is disposed below the top container, the lower container is configured to be removed from a remainder of the apparatus while the top container remains latched with the apparatus, by first releasing the respective releasable connection and then pulling the lower container outwardly away from the frame from beneath the top container as the lower container's slide surfaces slidably engage the slide surfaces of the associated mount structures.

• mount structures adjustably connectable to the frame so as to enable a height adjustment thereof on the frame;
• at least two containers comprising a top container and a lower container, each container having a main body and a movable structure movable relative to the main body to permit access to contents within the container;
• and
• releasable latches between respective ones of the at least two containers and the mount structures enabling a height adjustment of each of the at least two containers on the frame, each of the releasable latches between a container of the at least two containers and a mount structure of the mount structures being configured to enable the container to be releasably latched to the mount structure, the releasable latch coupling the main body of the container with the mount structure,
• wherein the main body comprises at least one elongated body surface configured to slidably engage a slide surface of the mount structure;
• wherein each of the at least two containers has a handle for transporting the respective container after it has been released from the respective ones of the mount structures;
• and
• wherein, when the top container and the lower container are mounted on the frame such that the lower container is disposed below the top container, the lower container is configured to be removed from a remainder of the apparatus while the top container remains latched with the apparatus, by first releasing the lower container from the mount structures and then pulling the lower container outwardly away from the frame from beneath the top container as the elongated body surface of the main body slidably engages the slide surface of the mount structure.
