ABSTRACT:
What is disclosed is a tool chest which comprises a main support housing; a center member slideably mounted in the main support housing; side members pivotally mounted to the main support housing; and means for supporting tools comprising part of the center member and each of the side members. The main support housing further includes a pair of support blocks which limit the downward vertical travel of the center member creating a storage area at the bottom of the chest.
The slideable mount for the center member includes a cooperating groove and track. The track portion includes a spring biased section which is forced into the vertical path of the center member when the latter is raised above a certain height. It then provides a support ledge for holding the center member in its vertically disposed position, making the storage area accessible.
The handle for carrying the chest includes cooperating handle sections disposed on the side members. When the latter are closed, the cooperating sections can be secured together by the placement of a lock in the aligned holes.
