ABSTRACT:
A portable container for storing and removing elongated elements, such as an electric extension cord, is disclosed. The portable container includes an open upper end, an inner shaft within the container about which an elongated element is wrapped, and a lid covering the open upper end of the container and having at least one opening which cooperates with the inner shaft to enable an elongated element to be inserted into the container and wrapped around the inner shaft or removed from the container while being unwound from the inner shaft. The inner shaft may be hollow for accommodating and storing various products therein, with a separate inner shaft cover for overlying an open upper end of the inner shaft so as to capture the various products stored therein. The lid may have a second opening through which one end of an elongated element extends with the other end of the elongated element extending through the overlying opening in the lid. The lid may be provided with cord holding clips for releasably holding opposite ends of the elongated element to the lid. A second lid may be provided to extend over the first lid including opposite ends of the elongated element, the openings in the first lid as well as the cord holding clips, with the second lid being releasably secured to the first lid. Suitable handles associated with the first lid or the container or both may be provided for lifting and carrying the portable container.
