Portable container

Abstract

A portable container includes a triangular prism shaped transparent case comprising an open bottom and three structural elements each extending downward from one of three angles of its top to an intermediate position of one of three longitudinal edges of the case; a handle secured to the top of the case; a triangular bottom member fitted onto the bottom of the case; and a shelf comprising an inclined top for dividing an internal space of the case into an upper space and a lower space, a side surface, and a continuous projecting edge extending downward from two edges of its top and extending toward one of the three longitudinal edges of the case. The shelf is secured between bottom ends of the structural elements and the bottom member.

1 . A portable container comprising:
 a transparent case shaped as a triangular prism and comprising a triangular top, a triangular open bottom, and three structural elements each extending downward from one of three angles of the top to an intermediate position of one of three longitudinal edges of the case wherein two of the three structural elements are of the same length and the remaining one of the three structural elements is shorter than the other two structural elements;   a handle secured to the top of the case;   a triangular bottom member fitted onto the bottom of the case; and   a shelf comprising a triangular inclined top for dividing an internal space of the case into an upper space and a lower space, a side surface, and a continuous projecting edge extending downward from two edges of the top thereof and extending toward one of the three longitudinal edges of the case,   wherein the bottom ends of the structural elements are urged against the three angles of the top of the shelf and the shelf is supported by the bottom member.   
   
   
       2 . The portable container of  claim 1 , wherein each of the case and the shelf is made of acrylic resin. 
   
   
       3 . The portable container of  claim 1 , wherein the top of the shelf comprises a slit for communicating both the upper and the lower spaces.
