Paint Bucket Handle Accessory

US Patent:
4823433, Apr 25, 1989
Filed:
Jan 19, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/145261
Inventors:
George C. Curtis - Springville UT
International Classification:
A47J 4507
US Classification:
16114R
Abstract:
A paint bucket handle accessory includes a generally elongate grip or handle member for grasping in the hand by a user, with the gripper handle member including a groove extending generally the length of the member along the top side thereof. The groove is dimensioned to receive the wire loop handle of a conventional paint bucket. The accessory also includes a hook member extending outwardly and generally perpendicularly from an opposite side of the gripper handle member to terminate in a hook element. The hook element is dimensioned for hooking under the inwardly and downwardly projecting lip formed in the upper edge of a conventional paint bucket. When a wire loop handle of a conventional paint bucket is fitted into the groove of the grip member, and the hook element is placed under the lip of a paint bucket, the grip member may be grasped by hand to lift and hold the paint bucket, while maintaining the wire loop handle to one side of the opening of the bucket. Thus, ready access to the interior of the bucket is allowed.
