Classification: CPC B  H | IPC B  H

Claim 4:
5. A mechanic's tool holder, comprising:
a base section;
a first upright wall extending upward from the base section, the first upright wall having an inner surface and an outer surface opposite to the inner surface;
a second upright wall is spaced from the first upright wall and extending upward from the base section, and the second upright wall having an inner surface and an upright outer surface opposite to the inner surface;
a center upright wall extending upward from the base section and located between the first upright wall and the second upright wall, the center upright wall has a first center upright wall surface and a second center upright wall surface, and the first center upright wall surface faces he first upright wall so as to cooperatively define a first mechanic's tool holding portion between the first center upright wall surface and the first upright wall, and the second center upright wall surface faces the second upright wall so as to cooperatively define a second mechanic's tool holding portion between the second center upright wall surface and the second upright wall,
a first missing mechanic's tool indicator is disposed at the base section between the first upright wall and the center upright wall, wherein the first missing mechanic's tool indicator is visibly blocked from sight by the mechanic's tool when the mechanic's tool is engaged and held by the first mechanic's tool holding portion, and the first missing mechanic's tool color indicator is visible to sight when the mechanic's tool is removed from the first mechanic's tool holding portion;
a second missing mechanic's tool indicator is disposed at the base portion of the body between the second upright wall and the center upright wall, wherein the second missing mechanic's tool indicator is visibly blocked from sight by the mechanic's tool when the mechanic's tool is engaged and held by the second mechanic's tool holding portion, and the second missing mechanic's tool indicator is visible to sight when the mechanic's tool is removed from the second mechanic's tool holding portion;
at least one elongate tongue projects outwardly away from the outer surface of the first upright wall longitudinally and extends upwardly along substantially the full height of the outer surface of the first upright wall;
at least one elongate tongue receiving locking groove recesses from the upright outer surface of the second upright wall toward the inner surface of the second upright wall, and extends upwardly along substantially the full height of the outer surface of the second upright wall; and
the at least one elongate tongue extending along the outer surface of the first upright wall is engageable in locking relationship with the at least one groove of a first adjacent holder for mechanic's tools to prevent disengagement of the holder and the first adjacent holder, and the at least one elongate tongue receiving groove extending along the outer surface of the second upright wall is engageable in locking relationship with the at least one elongate tongue of a second adjacent holder for mechanic's tools to prevent disengagement of the holder and the second adjacent holder.
