Abstract

A product holder for mounting on a bucket is disclosed having a support member, a pocket member, and a sheet product dispenser. The support member is conformable to an exterior surface of the bucket and includes fasteners at opposing ends thereof to securely hold the support member to the bucket. The pocket member is securely attached to the support member to form a pocket therewith for receiving and supporting a tool therein. The sheet product dispenser is securely attached to the support member for receiving and dispensing a sheet product, and includes a container body and a container lid openable and closeable with respect to the container body.

1 . A product holder for mounting on a bucket, comprising:
 a support member conformable to an exterior surface of the bucket, the support member having fasteners at opposing ends thereof to securely hold the support member to the bucket;   a pocket member securely attached to the support member to form a pocket therewith for receiving and supporting a tool therein; and   a sheet product dispenser securely attached to the support member for receiving and dispensing a sheet product, the sheet product dispenser having a container body and a container lid openable and closeable with respect to the container body.   
   
   
       2 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the support member is so dimensioned as to be attachable to the exterior surface of a five gallon bucket. 
   
   
       3 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet product dispenser is made from a material impermeable to liquids. 
   
   
       4 . The product holder of  claim 3 , wherein the impermeable material is a plastic material. 
   
   
       5 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the container lid is attached to the container body via a hinge disposed on an outer face of the sheet product dispenser such that the lid pivots away from the bucket upon opening the sheet product dispenser. 
   
   
       6 . The product holder of  claim 5 , wherein the container lid is attached to the container body via a living hinge. 
   
   
       7 . The product holder of  claim 1 , further comprising a friction band disposed on an interior surface of the support member such that the friction band is compressed against the exterior surface of the bucket when the product holder is mounted and secured thereto. 
   
   
       8 . The product holder of  claim 7 , wherein the friction band is made from an elastomeric material. 
   
   
       9 . The product holder of  claim 8 , wherein the elastomeric material is a rubber material. 
   
   
       10 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the pocket member is one of a plurality of pocket members. 
   
   
       11 . The product holder of  claim 1 , further comprising a sleeve member securely attached to the support member to provide a sleeve having two open ends for receiving and supporting the tool that can be inserted into one of the open ends and can extend beyond the second open end. 
   
   
       12 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the latches are attached to the opposing ends of the support member via a semi-stretchable material such that the support member is securable to the bucket under tension. 
   
   
       13 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet product dispenser has the exterior surface proximate the support member with a contour that mirrors the contour of the outer surface of the bucket. 
   
   
       14 . The product holder of  claim 13 , wherein the sheet product dispenser is made from a material that is more rigid than the conformable support member. 
   
   
       15 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the sheet product dispenser is so dimensioned as to not extend beyond the bottom of the bucket when the support member and sheet product dispenser are securely attached to the bucket. 
   
   
       16 . The product holder of  claim 1 , wherein the fasteners are engageable latches. 
   
   
       17 . The product holder of  claim 1 , further comprising a sheet product retainer disposed within the container body so as to retain a next-sheet-product-to-be-dispensed from falling back into the container body.
