Abstract
An openable handle generally formed as a spring-closing carbiner is provided for attachment to a manually transportable object and has elongated arms connected to the transportable object in spaced relation to each other. The handle is attached to the transportable object so as not to be separable therefrom and one end of the first arm and one end of the second arm each extend outwardly from the attached transportable object. A portion for making the handle openable is located at a site between the outwardly extending ends of the first arm and the second arm, for passage therethrough of a member from which the transportable object is to be suspended.
Claims21
The combination of a flashlight and an openable handle therefor, wherein said openable handle comprises
- an elongated first arm having first and second ends and extending therebetween and an elongated second arm having first and second opposed ends and extending therebetween, said first arm and said second arm each being connected to the flashlight in spaced relation to each other, the first end of said first arm and the first end of said second arm each being connected to the flashlight in such manner that the handle is integrally attached thereto so as not to be removable from the flashlight, the second end of said first arm and the second end of said second arm each extending away from the flashlight attached to said handle and defining therebetween a site for making said handle openable;
- and
- means for making said handle openable located at the site between the second end of said first arm and the second end of said second arm and permitting selective passage therethrough of a member from which the flashlight is to be suspended, said handle including an elongated base plate to which said first arm and said second arm are connected, said base plate being movably attached to said flashlight in such manner that movement of said handle will cause said flashlight to be turned on and off.
An openable handle for attachment to a portable object, the handle comprising;
- an elongated first arm having first and second opposed ends and extending therebetween and an elongated second arm having first and second opposed ends and extending therebetween, said first arm and said second arm each being connected to the object by the corresponding first ends thereof in spaced relation to each other and in such manner that said handle is attached to the object so as not to be separable therefrom, the second end of said first arm and the second end of said second arm each extending outwardly from the object attached to said handle and defining therebetween a site for locating means for making said handle openable;
- and
- means for making said handle openable located at the site between the second end of said first arm and the second end of said second arm and permitting selective passage therethrough of a member from which the object is to be suspended, said means for making said handle openable being automatically recloseable after opening.
The combination of a mug and an openable handle therefor, wherein said openable handle comprises
- an elongated first arm having first and second ends and extending therebetween and an elongated second arm having first and second opposed ends and extending therebetween, said first arm and said second arm each being connected to the mug in spaced relation to each other, the first end of said first arm and the first end of said second arm each being connected to the mug in such manner that the handle is integrally attached thereto so as not to be removable from the mug, the second end of said first arm and the second end said second arm each extending away from the mug attached to said handle and defining therebetween a site for making said handle openable;
- and
- means for making said handle openable located at the site between the second end of said first arm and the second end of said second arm and permitting selective passage therethrough of a member from which the mug is to be suspended, said means for making said handle openable being automatically recloseable after opening.
