ABSTRACT:
A new and improved container carrier apparatus includes a first support assembly, a second support assembly, a third support assembly which is connected between the first support assembly and the second support assembly. The third support assembly is connected to the first support assembly and the second support assembly such that the third support assembly, the first support assembly, and the second support assembly are coplanar in a support plane. Pairs of lateral retention assemblies are connected to the first and second support assemblies. The lateral retention assemblies project perpendicularly from the support plane. A hinge assembly is connected to either the first support assembly or the second support assembly. A handle assembly is connected to the hinge assembly, and four wheels are attached to respective end portions of the first and second support assemblies. The third support assembly includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion telescopically connected between the first portion and the second portion such that an effective length of the third support assembly can be adjusted. Clamping assemblies are connected to the lateral retention assemblies for clamping a container between the respective lateral retention assemblies and onto the support assemblies. Each of the clamping assemblies includes a pair of threaded apertures in the lateral retention assemblies and a complementarily threaded bolt adapted to be screwed through the threaded apertures and to extend to contact a container supported by the first, second, and third support assemblies.
