Fluid containment apparatus

A wall support for a liquid containment apparatus comprising:

• a base;
• an inner support leg extending in a first direction, the inner support leg being supported by the base, the first support leg providing support to the wall support when the wall support is in a collapsed position, a support position, and an opened flat position;
• and
• a pivoting leg pivotally engaging the base and configured to be secured to a side wall of a liquid containment apparatus to support a portion of the side wall, the pivoting leg being positional among a collapsed position substantially parallel to the inner support leg and at about 0° as measured from the inner support leg when the wall support is in the collapsed position to an initial supporting position where the pivoting leg is at a deployed angle as measured from the inner support leg when the wall support is in the supporting position to an opened flat position substantially parallel to the inner support leg and at about 180° as measured from the inner support leg when the wall support is in the open flat position, wherein the pivoting leg when in the initial supporting position is secured within a detent defined by the base and the pivoting leg moveable out of the detent upon a sufficient amount of force being applied to the pivoting leg when the pivoting leg is moved from the initial supporting position to the collapsed position and from the initial supporting position to the opened flat position.

A fluid containment apparatus, comprising:

• a floor;
• a side wall that with the floor at least partially defines a containment area for fluid;
• and
• one or more wall supports that support the side wall, each of the one or more wall supports engaging and supporting a portion of the side wall, each wall support comprising:
• a base member;
• a first support leg extending from the base member , the first support leg providing support to the wall support when the wall support is in a collapsed position, a support position, and an opened flat position;
• and
• a pivoting leg pivotally engaging the base member and configured to be secured to the side wall to support a portion of the side wall, the pivoting leg being positional from a first position substantially parallel to the first support leg when the wall support is in the collapsed position to a second position where the pivoting leg is at a deployed angle to the first support leg when the wall support is in the supporting position, the pivoting leg when in the second position being secured within a detent defined by the base member;
• and
• the first position comprising the pivoting leg being positioned at about 0° as measured from the first support leg and the pivoting leg being positional in a third position that is substantially parallel to a first position when the wall support is in the opened flat position such that the pivoting leg is positioned at about 180° as measured from the first support leg;
• and
• the pivoting leg moveable out of the detent upon a sufficient amount of force being applied to the pivoting leg when the pivoting leg is moved from the second position to the first position and from the second position to the third position.
