Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to tool containers. More particularly it relates to a tool container that is removable to the distal end of a pole.
- 2. Prior Art
- Toolboxes, containers, and carriers have provided service workers with easy and convenient ways to carry and transport tools. A tool belt, worn about the waist of a user, provides a conventional means to carry tools for on-the-go use wherein the user does not have to continually return to a stationary tool box for tools and equipment as needed. Often a tool belt is made of reinforced material such as leather and can carry a substantial amount of tools and therefore weigh quite a lot. However, such a tool-carrying device is not necessarily practical or comfortable if the working conditions do not easily permit such a device or when only few tools are required throughout the day.
- Prior art has shown many attempts in the improvement of tool carrying and holding devices such as through the employment of small, sleek, carrying containers. One example is seen in US Pub. No. 2009/0183608 A1 to Johnson et al. wherein a compact cylindrical tool body is employed to hold a plurality of tools, such as hexagonal wrenches. The cylindrical body is additionally a handle. However, these and additional prior art tool carrying devices, although compact, do not additionally provide a means for the user to conveniently carry the device that may be desired throughout a busy work day. Furthermore, they do not provide a means to engage additional existing tools a service worker may concurrently be employing.
- For a first example, pool maintenance and service workers are typically on their feet for an extended period of time when cleaning the pool or performing maintenance on equipment such as water pumps and filters. When cleaning a pool, workers almost always use the conventional telescoping utility pole wherein the distal end employs a brush, scoop, or the like for cleaning or removing debris. During use the worker is constantly bending and reaching to accommodate the variety of pool sizes and'depths. If the worker needs a tool they must put down the pole and walk out to their vehicle and search to obtain the tool they need. This of course can be quite tiring especially during a long day. Therefore, due to the widespread use, the utility pole would provide a convenient location to engage and contain tools as needed.
- Further, the conventional tool belt or other worn tool carrying device may run the risk of dropping or losing tools into the pool due to constant bending and reaching off the edge of the pool and may get in the way when bending down or maneuvering tight places around shrubbery or other obstructions. Additionally, should the worker have to enter the pool for maintenance, the conventional tool belt or other worn device must be removed, defeating the purpose of having a worn tool carrying device in the first place.
- In another example, car mechanics change tools quite often requiring them to continuously walk between workbenches and a vehicle. This task cannot only be tiring but also distracting and therefore potentially dangerous. A hydraulic floor jack is often employed at the location of the vehicle where work is being done. Therefore the jack, having a pole like handle, is already positioned in a convenient location close at hand to the worker. The jack already being in widespread use and having a pole-like handle would provide a convenient location to engage or contain tools as needed.
- As such there is a continuing and unmet need for a tool carrying device that is easily engaged to a pole such as but not limited to pool maintenance utility poles or hydraulic floor jack handles. The device should be easily engageable to the existing poles or alternatively be formed as an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) device.
- The device herein disclosed and described provides a solution to the shortcomings in prior art and achieves the above noted goals through the provision of a tool container device engaged to the end of a pole, such as but not limited to a pool maintenance utility pole or hydraulic floor jack handle. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the device can be similarly employed to any type pole and should not be limited to the descriptions and depictions set forth in the application.
- In a first preferred mode, the device is removable engaged to the pole via frictional engagement or setscrew type engagement. In,another mode the device is integrally formed with the pole such as an OEM device. Generally, the device is a cylindrical body, such as a tubular pipe or pole, and includes a container cavity for storing tools such as a screw driver or crescent wrench to name a few.
- In an additional particularly preferred means of employment, the device operatively engaged to a pool maintenance utility pole. A pool maintenance pole conventionally consists of two or more segments of, concentrically telescopically engaged tubular pole members. The pole typically made of aluminum, plastic, or other lightweight durable material includes a distal end wherein a removable engaged cleaning device such as a scrubbing brush or net is employed providing the user with an extended reach for deep and/or wide pools as needed. The proximal end typically includes a handle or gripping portion to allow the user to grip as needed for maneuvering the distal end of the pole.
- In a further preferred means of employment, the device is engaged to the proximal end of a hydraulic floor jack handle. Conventionally a hydraulic floor jack handle is engaged to a hydraulic actuator at the distal end. The user typically grips and vertically reciprocates the proximal end as needed for translating the jack platform and raising a vehicle.
- The device generally includes a cylindrical body member having an axial passage formed within further defining a cylindrical sidewall of the body. The device is preferably made of aluminum or other material suited for the intended purpose of the device as will become apparent shortly. The body further employs an end wall recessed a substantial distance into a second of two ends of the body member such as that of a portion of the cylindrical sidewall extends along the length of the device past the end wall.
- In use the extending portion of the cylindrical sidewall at the second end is circumferentially engaged over the proximal end of the pole such that the proximal end of the pole abuts the recessed end wall of the device. The axial passage of the body member may be formed slightly larger than the exterior circumference of the pole such that the device may be frictionally engaged to the pole upon circumferential engagement. However, the device may additionally employ a setscrew or other means for biased removable engagement.
- A first interior cavity or container is defined by the interior of the sidewall of the device from the end wall to a first end of the body, opposite the previously mentioned second end. The cavity provides a storage space to contain one or a plurality of tools such as, but not limited to, screw driver, crescent wrench, hexagonal wrenches, to name a few. The first end may additionally include a cap to enclose the interior cavity. Further, the interior cavity may employ a means to securely engage the tool such as a screwdriver within the cavity. Even further, the exterior surface of the body member may be formed as a grip and employ additional apertures for holding additional tools as needed.
- Since the utility pole and hydraulic jack are widely used in their respective industry, great advantage is found in that the tool container of the present invention is maintained in engagement to the pole for easy access. Tools are now readily available to the user due to the engagement of the device on the pole.
- In another mode, the device may be unitarily formed with the pole such as an OEM product. Furthermore, it is within the intended scope of the present invention to be adapted for engagement to any elongated pole-like member such as a rod, shaft, or the like. Further, the device may employ additional cavities for containing additional tools.
- With respect to the above description, before explaining at least one preferred embodiment of the herein disclosed invention in detail; it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangement of the components in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention herein described is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways that will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
- As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception upon which this disclosure is based may readily be utilized as a basis for designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present disclosed device. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent construction and methodology insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
- It is an object of the invention to provide a tool container engaged to the end of a pole such as a pool maintenance utility pole or hydraulic floor jack handle, providing quick and easy access to tools contained within.
- It is a further object of the invention to provide a tool container that is removable from an existing pole.

FIGS. 1-12 , wherein similar components are identified by like reference numerals, there is seen inFIG. 1 an isometric view of thetool container device 10 operatively engaged to a poolmaintenance utility pole 100. Although the following depictions show thedevice 10 engaged to apool utility pole 100, it must be understood that thepole 100 can any type pole, rod, or pipe as would be obvious to a person skilled in the art. As such the following description is meant to merely provide the simplest description to set forth the intended scope and purpose of thedevice 10 and should therefore not be considered limiting by the figures. - A
typical pole 100 includes adistal end 102 and grippingproximal end 104 of concentrically telescopically engaged segments allowing a user to extend and retract thedistal end 102 as needed for reaching areas of a pool. In use thedevice 10 in the as-used position, engaged to theproximal end 104 of thepole 100 where the user conventionally grips thepole 100. - As such the operative employment of the
device 10 at thegripping end 104 of thepole 100 allows the user to access tools enclosed within thedevice 10 while concurrently holding thepole 100. A great amount of utility is found in that a substantial amount of time and effort is saved allowing the user to more effectively clean the pool. Furthermore, if the user must enter the pool for any reason, thedevice 10 is simply placed on the ground or stored with thepole 100. - Still further utility is found through the employment of the
device 10 with a hydraulic floor jack handle (not shown). Vehicle service often requires many tools as well as requires the user to elevate the vehicle such as with a hydraulic floor jack. Often the location of the part to be serviced will dictate the location of the floor jack, therefore already positioning the jack in a convenient location to house or contain tools. - As shown in the side view of
FIG. 2 thedevice 10 includes a cylindricaltubular body portion 12 having afirst end 14 and asecond end 16. Thebody portion 12 can be a pipe, tube, or the like extruded or generally formed of a plastic, rubber, aluminum or the like. There is also included acap member 18 of similar material for threaded removable engagement to thefirst end 14. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that thecap 18 may be removed from thefirst end 14 by any means known in the art such as snap fit, bayonet, twist, twist-and-lock, or frictional engagement to name a few. Further, the sidewall of thebody 12 having anexterior surface 22 may includethreads 20 at thefirst end 14 if threaded engagement is employed. - Additionally the exterior 22 may be formed, shaped, or otherwise adapted to provide a gripping
means 54 by conforming to the grip of a user, shown and described in more detail later inFIG. 12 . Briefly, this will allow the user to grip thedevice 10 as they normally would the end of apole 100 during use. -
FIG. 3 shows a cross section of thedevice 10 ofFIG. 2 along cut 3-3. The sidewall of thebody 12 has aninterior surface 23 that defines an axial passage that extends in between thefirst end 14 andsecond end 16. Anend wall 28 is engaged within the axial passage, such as by frictional engagement with, theinterior surface 23, located preferably at or near thesecond end 16 of thebody 12. Those skilled in the art will appreciate various means for engagement of theend wall 28 within the axial passage such as press fit; adhesive, welding, or the like. As such, theend wall 28 may be formed of any material suitable for such engagement such as plastic, metal, ceramic, or other material one skilled in the art would recognize as suitable for the intended purpose. - A
first cavity 30 of the axial passage is formed by theinterior wall 23 between thefirst end 14 andend wall 28 and is preferably the majority of the axial passage to accommodate a tool as will be shown shortly inFIG. 7 . In addition, thefirst cavity 30 may be sealed water tight upon employment of theend wall 28 andcap 18 on thefirst end 14. - Again, the
end wall 28 can be plastic or other material inserted, press fitted, or otherwise formed into the interior 23 of thedevice 10. Thesecond cavity 32 is formed by theinterior wall 23 between thesecond end 16 and theend wall 28 and provides a means for engagement of thedevice 10 to thedistal end 104 of thepole 100 as will also become apparent upon further disclosure ofFIG. 7 below. - Although the
first cavity 30 can readily house any tool or tools without asupport 24, it is preferred that thedevice 10 additionally include anintermediate support 24 located substantially midway between thefirst end 14 andend wall 28. Thesupport 24 may similarly be a plastic or other material inserted, press-fitted, or other wise formed into the interior 23 of thedevice 10. - In the preferred mode of the
device 10, thesupport 24 includes anaperture 26 communicating there through along the direction of the length of thedevice 10. In a preferred mode, thedevice 10 is intended to receive ascrewdriver 200 into thefirst cavity 30 of thebody 12 as is shown in more detail shortly inFIG. 7 . Briefly, theaperture 26 provides a means to secure the screwdriver or tool from movement when housed in thecavity 30 and prevents rattling within the provided secured engagement. Front and rear views of thedevice 10 can be seen inFIG. 4 andFIG. 5 respectively. It must be noted that theaperture 26 can be formed of any shape as need to receive any sized or shaped tool handle for secured engagement as will become obviously to a person skilled in the art upon further disclosure. - For example, in another mode of the
device 10, thesupport 24 can include a plurality ofapertures 27 communicating there through providing a means to secure a plurality of screwdrivers or other tool employing elongated shafts. A front view of this mode of thesupport 24 is shown inFIG. 6 . - In still yet another mode of the
device 10, thesupport 24 may employ a substantiallyrectangular aperture 27′ communicating there through providing a means to secure a crescent wrench or other tool having a substantially rectangular handle of shaft portion. A front view of this mode of thesupport 24 is shown inFIG. 6 a. -
FIG. 7 shows again a side cross sectional view of thedevice 10 ofFIG. 2 showing the as-used mode wherein ascrewdriver 200 is engaged within (cap element 18 has been omitted for clarity). Also shown is thedevice 10 operatively engaged to theproximal end 104 of apool utility pole 100. In use, thesecond end 16 of thedevice 10 is intended to be removable from theproximal end 104 of thepole 100 such as via frictional engagement. As such the interior diameter of thesecond cavity 32 may be operatively sized slightly larger than the exterior diameter of theconventional pole 100 as to permit secured frictional engagement. - However, the
device 10 may alternatively or in combination employ asetscrew 34 extending from the exterior of thesidewall 22 through to the interior 23 to biasly engaged thepole 100 as shown. Additionally, those skilled in the art will appreciate various other means for biasly engaging thepole 100 into thesecond cavity 32 of thedevice 10 and are anticipated in this disclosure. - As can be seen in the figure, the
shaft 204 of thescrewdriver 200 passes through theaperture 26 of thesupport 24 insofar as thehandle 202 abuts thestopper 24 to maintain thehandle 202 substantially near thefirst end 14 for easy retrieval from thefirst cavity 30. In the other mode of thedevice 10 employing thesupport 24 ofFIG. 6 , a plurality ofscrewdrivers 200 or other tools can me secured within thecavity 30 of thedevice 10. - In yet an additional preferred means of employment of the
device 10 thesecond end 16 is cooperatively engaged into thehollow cavity 106 of thepole 100, should the pole be hollow, as is seen inFIG. 7 a. As such, theexterior surface 22 engages in biased frictional engagement with the interior of thecavity 106 of thepole 100. This mode may be particularly preferred if thepole 100 is substantially large as to easily receive thesecond end 16 of thedevice 10 in biased frictional engagement. In this mode theend wall 28 may alternatively be positioned at thesecond end 16 insofar as thesecond cavity 32 is no longer necessary for engagement to thepole 100. As such in this mode thefirst cavity 30 would be defined as the axial passage communicating from thefirst end 14 to the end wall, and substantially the entire length of thebody 12 of thedevice 10. - Furthermore, it is within the intended scope of the present invention that the
support 24 of thedevice 10 may be formed to secure a variety of other tools possible not having elongated shafts or similar components and is anticipated within the disclosure. However, since tools come in many shapes, sizes, and forms, it is not within the present application to disclose each and every possible means for securing other tools as intended with thedevice 10. With that it must be noted that the descriptions and depictions set forth should not be considered limiting: In addition, thestopper 24 may be completely removed as needed. - Yet another particularly preferred mode of the
device 10 is shown in a side view ofFIG. 8 wherein theexterior surface 22 of thebody 12 is shaped, extruded, or generally formed to include anadditional cavity 40 adjacent the first andsecond cavities FIG. 9 . - The
cavity 40 extends from afirst end 41 to asecond end 42 that is preferably capped or closed by anend Wall 43. Thedevice 10 may include a plurality of suchadditional cavities 40 formed in an array about theexterior 22 of thebody 12 as needed and should not be considered limiting by the depiction. Further,additional cavities 40 may include a removable cap (not shown) at thefirst end 41 that can provide waterproof sealed engagement of thecavity 40 as needed for keeping contents within dry. -
FIG. 10 shows a perspective view of still yet another particularly preferred mode of thedevice 10 wherein theexterior surface 22 of thebody 12 is shaped, extruded, or generally formed to include aprotrusion 52 having aflat writing surface 52. Thesurface 52 is preferable a dry erase surface, such as those found in classroom whiteboards, employable with erasable dry erase markers. However thesurface 52 can be any surface to receive writing from a conventional writing implement and should not be considered limiting. For example the surface may be paper stationery with a strip of adhesive on the back. - This mode provides the user with a means to impart writing on the
device 10 as needed to keep notes or write reminders. Often during a days work there are many tasks to be accomplished and this provides a convenient means to keep track of the daily tasks or remember client information for example. - It must be noted that this mode may be employable with any and all other modes of the
device 10 previously disclosed. It may be additionally advantageous to employ the current mode of thedevice 10 with that ofFIG. 9 as theadditional cavity 40 provide can provide a storage means for a marker or other writing implement. -
FIG. 12 shows a still yet additional preferred mode of thedevice 10 wherein theexterior surface 22 of the body of thedevice 10 is formed, shaped, or otherwise adapted to include a grippingmeans 54. Such gripping means 54 may be any means known in the art providing a means to conform to the grip of a user. Those skilled in the art will immediately recognize that the grippingmeans 54 may be easily modified to conform to one or a combination of a large grip, small grip, and left hand or right hand oriented grip. Further those skilled will appreciate the various modifications necessary to provide a grippingmeans 54 accommodating any of the former grip types and as such the gripping means 54 should not be considered limiting by the depiction. - Further noting that the provision of a gripping
means 54 may be employed separately or in combination with any of the other preferred modes of thedevice 10 previously disclosed. One skilled in the art would immediately recognize means to combine any or possibly all preferred modes of thedevice 10 and as such should not be considered limiting to any one such mode. - While all of the fundamental characteristics and features of the invention have been shown and described herein, with reference to particular embodiments thereof, a latitude of modification, various changes and substitutions are intended in the foregoing disclosure and it will be apparent that in some instances, some features of the invention may be employed without a corresponding use of other features without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth. It should also be understood that various substitutions, modifications, and variations may be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Consequently, all such variations are included within the scope of the invention as defined by the following claims.
