Claims17
A storage container securing system, comprising:
- a storage container;
- a base having a first set of protrusions and a second set of protrusions extending from a first surface thereof, the first set of protrusions being spaced apart from the second set of protrusions;
- a first L-shaped bracket having a first surface and a second surface, the first surface having a plurality of keyholes therein and configured to matingly engage the first set of protrusions;
- a second L-shaped bracket having a first surface and a second surface, the first surface having a plurality of keyholes therein and configured to matingly engage the second set of protrusions;
- first and second coupling members configured to secure the storage container when placed between the first and second L-shaped brackets, wherein the storage container has a right wall, an oppositely disposed left wall, and a pivotable lid therebetween;
- wherein the first and second coupling members are affixed to the first and second L-shaped brackets respectively and operative to secure the storage container therebetween by engaging an upper edge of the right and left walls of the storage container;
- wherein the upper edges of the right and left walls of the storage container are disposed below the lid of the storage container such that the lid may be opened and closed when the first and second coupling members engage the upper edges of the right and left walls.

A storage container securing system, comprising:
- a storage container;
- a base;
- first and second L-shaped brackets having first and second surfaces, the first surface of the first and second L-shaped brackets configured to be mounted to opposite ends of the base and the second surface of the first and second L-shaped brackets being configured to abut opposite ends of the storage container when placed therebetween, each of the opposite ends of the storage container containing a recess on a lower portion thereof and the second surface of the first and second L-shaped brackets being configured to slidably fit within the recess;
- first and second latches secured to the first and second L-shaped brackets for securing the storage container by engaging an upper portion of each end of the storage container, wherein the storage container includes a pivotable lid and wherein the upper portion of each end of the storage container is disposed below the pivotable lid such that the lid may be pivoted between an opened position and a closed position while the first and second latches engage the upper portion;
- and
- wherein the base has a plurality of protrusions on an upper surface thereof and the first surface of the first and second L-shaped brackets has a plurality of keyholes therein configured to matingly engage a portion of the protrusions.

A storage container securing system, comprising:
- a storage container having a right side, a left side opposite the right side, and a pivotable lid therebetween, the right side having a top end, a bottom end, and a recess in an outer surface thereof and the left side having a top end, a bottom end, and a recess in an outer surface thereof;
- a base having first and second brackets mounted thereon and extending upwardly therefrom, wherein the upwardly extending portions of the first and second brackets are configured to abut the right and left sides of the storage container when placed therebetween, the first bracket configured to fit within the recess on the right side of the storage container and the second bracket configured to fit within the recess on the left side of the storage container;
- first and second latches affixed to the first and second brackets for securing the storage container by engaging the top ends of the right and left sides of the storage container, wherein the lid may be pivoted between an open position and a closed position while the first and second latches engage the top ends;
- and
- wherein the base has a plurality of protrusions on an upper surface thereof and the first and second brackets have a plurality of keyholes therein configured to matingly engage the protrusions.
