ABSTRACT:
An upwardly open container, such as a bucket, includes a receptacle portion and a handle for carrying the receptacle portion in a suspended position. A receptacle of a suitable depth is formed in the receptacle portion for receiving material and is defined by an inner side wall terminating in an upward direction in a brim, and in the direction of its depth by an inner bottom surface. The receptacle is contained within an outer side surface and an outer bottom surface which define the receptacle portion. The outer side surface terminates in an upward direction in the brim and forms a cross-section area of a substantially similar configuration along the most part of the direction of depth of the receptacle in a plane perpendicular to the direction of depth of the receptacle. The cross-section area is of an oblong configuration, allowing the container to be positioned in an ergonomically favorable position for carrying and handling it, such that the direction of oblongness extends substantially parallely with the direction of operation of the container.
