ABSTRACT:
A collapsible carrier for kegs and the like. The carrier is in the form of a ring-like clamp comrised of semicircular ring members piovted on opposite sides of the clamp and opening to fit around a keg or barrel. Handle bars are provided at opposite sides and when they are lifted the clamp is closed and upwardly directed tooth-like gripping members are caused to engage the keg in firm gripping engagement. The handle, ring members and gripping teeth are formed in a special angular relationship to provide an I-beam type strength to the ring members and self-clamping force through the lifting action on the handles. When not in use the carrier can be collapsed together to half its expanded size as a convenience in storage.
