A first side-panel includes a first reinforcement tunnel or reinforcement core, hollow or filled, located at or near the top edge or the top rim of the first side-panel. A second side-panel, opposite the first side-panel and generally parallel to the first side-panel, includes a second reinforcement tunnel or reinforcement core, hollow or filled, located at or near the top edge or the top rim of the second side-panel. The two reinforcement tunnels or core contribute to stability and rigidity of the device. An insertable or removable U-shaped handle complements the hollow reinforcement tunnels. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A device comprising: a bottom-side panel (110); a right-side panel (111) and a left-side panel (113), wherein the right-side panel (111) is generally perpendicular to the bottom-side panel (110), wherein the left-side panel (113) is generally perpendicular to the bottom-side panel (110), wherein a surface of the right-side panel (111) is substantially identical to a surface of the left-side panel (113); a front-side panel (112) and a rear-side panel (114), wherein the front-side panel (112) is generally perpendicular to the bottom-side panel (110), wherein the rear-side panel (114) is generally perpendicular to the bottom-side panel (110), wherein a surface of the front-side panel (112) is substantially identical to a surface of the rear-side panel (114); wherein the surface of the right-side panel (111) is greater than the surface of the front-side panel (112); wherein the right-side panel (111) comprises a first reinforcement tunnel (131) in proximity to a top rim of the right-side panel (111), wherein the first reinforcement tunnel (131) runs along a top edge of the right-side panel (111); wherein the left-side panel (113) comprises a second reinforcement tunnel (132) in proximity to a top rim of the left-side panel (113), wherein the second reinforcement tunnel (132) runs a top edge of the left-side panel (113). ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the first reinforcement tunnel (131) is filled, and wherein the second reinforcement (132) tunnel is filled. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The device of claim 2, wherein a cross-section of the first reinforcement tunnel (131) is rectangular, and wherein a cross-section of the second reinforcement tunnel (132) is rectangular. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the first reinforcement tunnel (131) is hollow, and wherein the second reinforcement (132) tunnel is hollow. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The device of claim 4, wherein a cross-section of the first reinforcement tunnel (131) is rectangular, and wherein a cross-section of the second reinforcement tunnel (132) is rectangular. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The device of claim 4, further comprising: a generally U-shaped handle (123) insertable, at least partially, into said first reinforcement tunnel (131) and said second reinforcement tunnel (132). ### Claim 7 (depends on 4) The device of claim 4, further comprising: a generally U-shaped handle (123) insertable, at least partially, into friction sleeves (141, 142) located internally within the first reinforcement tunnel (131) and the second reinforcement tunnel (132). ### Claim 8 (depends on 4) The device of claim 4, further comprising: a generally U-shaped handle (123) insertable, at least partially, into said first reinforcement tunnel (131) and said second reinforcement tunnel (132); wherein the U-shaped handle (123) is pullable and entirely removable from said device. ### Claim 9 (depends on 4) The device of claim 4, further comprising: a first tunnel-cover (151) to close one of two endings of the first reinforcement tunnel (131); a second tunnel-cover (152) to close one of two endings of the second reinforcement tunnel (132). ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising: a lid-panel (115) to close over the right-side panel (111), the left-side panel (113), the front-side panel (112), and the rear-side panel (114). ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The device of claim 10, wherein the lid-panel (115) defines a hole (127) for passing a cable therethrough. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The device of claim 10, wherein an edge of the lid-panel (115) defines a first portion of a hole (127); wherein a second portion of said hole (127) is defined by a complementing top edge of one panel out of the right-side panel (111), the left-side panel (113), the front-side panel (112), and the rear-side panel (114). ### Claim 13 (depends on 10) The device of claim 10, further comprising: A locking mechanism (125) to lock the lid-panel (115) to at least one panel out of the right-side panel (111), the left-side panel (113), the front-side panel (112), and the rear-side panel (114). ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising: at least two wheels connected to the bottom-side panel (110); wherein the device is a cart. ### Claim 15 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the device is a toolbox. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the device is a 50-gallon toolbox. ### Claim 17 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the bottom-side panel (110), the right-side panel (111), the left-side panel (113), the front-side panel (112), the rear-side panel (114), the first reinforcement tunnel (131), and the second reinforcement tunnel (132) are formed of plastic. ### Claim 18 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the bottom-side panel (110), the right-side panel (111), the left-side panel (113), the front-side panel (112), the rear-side panel (114), the first reinforcement tunnel (131), and the second reinforcement tunnel (132) are formed of injection molded plastic material. ### Claim 19 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the bottom-side panel (110), the right-side panel (111), the left-side panel (113), the front-side panel (112), the rear-side panel (114), the first reinforcement tunnel (131), and the second reinforcement tunnel (132) are formed in a single process of injection molding of plastic material. ### Claim 20 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, wherein the bottom-side panel (110), the right-side panel (111), the left-side panel (113), the front-side panel (112), the rear-side panel (114), the first reinforcement tunnel (131), and the second reinforcement tunnel (132) are non-detachable of each other and are formed in a single process of injection molding of plastic material.
