ABSTRACT:
A carrier is provided which comprises a generally bucket-shaped translucent container (2) having an open top for collection of items, and which may have a handle if desired. A light cource (9) is positioned within the container adjacent the bottom wall thereof. A light deflector (15) is removably positioned above the light source and also serves as a false bottom for receiving collected items. The deflector is spaced from the container bottom wall to form a light-bouncing chamber (20) therebetween; and furthermore is slideable upwardly within the container for easy removal of the collected items. The light source provides an access handle (10) for grasping and removing the deflector and its collected contents upwardly. Furthermore, the container bottom wall (5) includes an opening (12) through which light from the light source passes downwardly to assist in lighting the way of the user. In addition, a raised rim (14) surrounding the opening serves to mount the light source. Also, the deflector is translucent and preferably of a lighter color than the container itself to maximize light reflectivity. In a further embodiment, (FIG. 5 ), the deflector is springingly held in position by the container side wall.
