Hand-footholds for buckets, troughs, tubs, containers, redeptacles, and bins

Abstract

A portable container containing internal pairs of foot-handholds located near the bottom of sloped or un-sloped container for the purpose of container stabilization by user/s feet and for bottom of container hand-grab capacity.

1 . A portable container configured to hold material, comprising of;
 a floor upon which said container rests;   at least one wall having a lower portion attached to the circumference of said floor,   so as to establish an enclosed area for holding material above said floor, and;   at least two wall orifice footholds, cut out of said wall directly above the floor in the same z plane, spaced around a periphery of said wall at different x and y axis of said container, each configured to receive the distal ends of at least two feet of one person for full or partial weight transference from the operator, for the purpose of container stabilization and;   each said wall orifice has a corresponding concave enclosure encapsulating said orifice, projecting within said container holding material area, attached to interior side of said wall above and along sides of the said orifice and dropping vertically to said floor and attaching to said interior floor for the purpose of covering the distal end of the users foot.   
     
     
         2 . The container of  claim 1  wherein at least one wall comprises a plurality of walls. 
     
     
         3 . The container of  claim 1  wherein a plurality of orifice footholds are oppositionally placed in said wall locations for the purpose of two or more operators' feet. 
     
     
         4 . wherein the container of  claim 2  has a secondary, smaller and narrower floor orifice cut out from the floor within the container orifice enclosure for the purpose of creating a grab-through for a user hand of both orifices within the orifice enclosure, creating a foot-handhold. 
     
     
         5 . wherein the container of  claim 3  has a secondary, smaller and narrower floor orifice cut out from the floor within the container orifice enclosure for the purpose of creating a grab-through for a user hand of both orifices within the orifice enclosure, creating a foot-handhold. 
     
     
         6 . wherein container of  claim 2  has an upwards indent in said enclosures' floor for the purpose of a fingertip friction grab, creating a foot-handhold. 
     
     
         7 . wherein container of  claim 3  has an upwards indent in said orifice enclosures' floor for the purpose of a fingertip friction grab, creating a foot-handhold. 
     
     
         8 . wherein the container of  claim 2  has said foothold enclosures within the container with the removal of the exterior floor and wall material in the foothold enclosures, resulting in a cavity within each foothold enclosure with an added bar running parallel and in contact with the ground connected at the most exterior left and right floor and wall intersections, creating a foot-handhold. 
     
     
         9 . wherein the container of  claim 3  has said foothold enclosures within the container with the removal the exterior floor and wall material in the foothold enclosures, resulting in a cavity within each foothold enclosure with an added bar running parallel and in contact with the ground connected at the most exterior left and right floor and wall intersections, creating a foot-handhold. 
     
     
         10 . wherein the container of  claim 8  has grip material encapsulating said bar. 
     
     
         11 . wherein the container of  claim 9  has grip material encapsulating said bar. 
     
     
         12 . A portable container configured to hold material, comprising of;
 a floor;   at least one wall having a lower portion attached to the circumference of the said floor, so as to establish an enclosed area for holding material above said floor, wherein at least one wall extends below the floor establishing a base portion upon which the container rests, and;   at least two wall orifice footholds, cut out of said wall below the floor, in the same z plane, spaced around a periphery of said wall at different x and y axis of said container, each configured to receive the distal ends of at least two feet of one person for full or partial weight transference from the operator, for the purpose of container stabilization.   
     
     
         13 . The container of  claim 12 , wherein at least one wall comprises a plurality of walls. 
     
     
         14 . The container of  claim 12 , wherein a plurality of orifice footholds are oppositionally placed in said wall locations for the purpose of two or more operators' feet. 
     
     
         15 . The container of  claim 13 , has a corrugated floor which rises and falls around said wall orifice foot-handholds to keep said orifice below and not within content area of container. 
     
     
         16 . The container of  claim 14  has a corrugated floor which rises and falls around said wall orifice foot-handholds to keep said orifice below and not within content area of container. 
     
     
         17 . A portable mesh container configured to hold material, comprising of;
 a floor upon which container rests;   at least one wall having a lower portion attached to the circumference of said floor, so as to establish an enclosed area for holding material above said floor, and;   at least two wall orifice footholds, cut out of said wall directly above the floor, in the same z plane, spaced around a periphery of the said wall, at different x and y axis of said container, each configured to receive the distal ends of at least two feet of one person for full or partial weight transference from the operator, for the purpose of container stabilization.   
     
     
         18 . The container of  claim 17 , wherein at least one wall comprises a plurality of walls. 
     
     
         19 . The containers of  claim 17 , wherein a plurality of orifice footholds are oppositionally placed in said wall locations for the purpose of two or more operators' feet.
