ABSTRACT:
A tip-resistant canister for use in wet/dry vacuums is disclosed. The tip-resistant canister has recessed caster supports and a skirt for resisting tipping. The recessed caster supports lower the center of gravity of the canister thereby making the canister more difficult to tip. The skirt of the canister, on the other hand, strikes the ground whenever the canister does begin to tip thereby preventing the canister from falling completely onto its side. The impact of the canister skirt against the ground also has a tendency to cause the canister to return to an upright position.
