The ratchet binder rack 100 (hereinafter invention) comprises a storage case 101 and a hand truck 102. The storage case 102 is attached to the hand truck 101. The invention 100 is a storage case 101 that is designed for use with one or more ratchet binders 161. The ratchet binder 161 comprises a ratchet bar 162 and a handle 163. The invention 100 stores the one or more ratchet binders 161 in the storage case 101. The storage case 101 is mounted on a hand truck 102 such that the hand truck 102 can be used to move the storage case 101.
The storage case 101 comprises a trapezoidal block 110. The trapezoidal block 110 is a cabinet structure that is formed in the shape of a hollow trapezoidal prism. As shown most clearly in FIGS. 1 and 2, the trapezoidal block 110 further comprises with a first wing 111, a second wing 112, a base panel 113, a top panel 114, and a rear panel 115.
The base panel 113 is a first rectangular plate that forms the face of the trapezoidal block 110 that is proximal to the supporting surface 164 upon which the invention 100 is placed. The top panel 114 is a second rectangular plate that forms the face of the trapezoidal block 110 that is distal from the base panel 113. As shown most clearly in FIG. 1, the top panel 114 further comprises an access port 126. The access port 126 is a triangularly shaped first negative space that is formed in the top panel 114. The triangularly shaped first negative space of the access port 126 is formed in the edge of the top panel 114 that is distal from the hand truck 102 such that a vertex triangularly shaped first negative space of the access port 126 is positioned at the center of the second rectangular plate that forms the top panel 114. The rear panel 115 is a third rectangular plate that attaches to both: 1) the edge of the top panel 114 that is proximal to the hand truck 102; and, 2) the edge of the base panel 113 that is proximal to the hand truck 102. When the invention 100 is assembled, the rear panel 115 is placed against the frame 130 of the hand truck 102. The hand truck 102 is discussed in more detail elsewhere in this disclosure. Methods to attach the rear panel 115 to the hand truck 102 are well known and documented in the mechanical arts.
The first wing 111 is a first trapezoidal plate that attaches to a side of the trapezoidal block 110 that is bounded by the top panel 114, the rear panel 115, and the base panel 113. The first wing 111 further comprises a first plurality of ratchet slots 121. Each of the first plurality of ratchet slots 121 is a second negative space that forms a groove within the first wing 111 from the edge of the first wing 111 that is distal from the rear panel 115 into the first wing 111 towards the rear panel 115 of the trapezoidal block 110. Each ratchet slot selected from the first plurality of ratchet slots 121 is parallel to the ratchet slots remaining in the first plurality of ratchet slots 121. Each ratchet slot selected from the first plurality of ratchet slots 121 is sized such that the ratchet bar 162 of the ratchet binder 161 will fit into the selected ratchet slot.
The second wing 112 is a second trapezoidal plate that attaches to a side of the trapezoidal block 110: 1) that is bounded by the top panel 114, the rear panel 115, and the base panel 113; and 2) that is the side of the trapezoidal block 110 that is distal to the side of the trapezoidal block 110 to which the first wing 111 attaches. The second wing 112 comprises a second plurality of ratchet slots 123. Each of the second plurality of ratchet slots 123 is a third negative space that forms a groove within the second wing 112 from the edge of the second wing 112 that is distal from the rear panel 115 into the second wing 112 towards the rear panel 115 of the trapezoidal block 110. Each ratchet slot selected from the second plurality of ratchet slots 123 parallel is to the ratchet slots remaining in the second plurality of ratchet slots 123. Each ratchet slot selected from the second plurality of ratchet slots 123 is sized such that the ratchet bar 162 of the ratchet binder 161 will fit into the selected ratchet slot. For any first ratchet slot selected from the first plurality of ratchet slots 121 there exists a corresponding second slot selected from the second plurality of ratchet slots 123. When a ratchet binder 161 is stored within the storage case 101, the ratchet bar 162 is placed within any first ratchet slot selected from the first plurality of ratchet slots 121 and the corresponding second ratchet slot selected from the second plurality of ratchet slots 123. When the trapezoidal block 110 is assembled, the second ratchet slot is positioned relative to the first ratchet slot such that when a ratchet bar 162 is inserted in both the first ratchet slot and the second ratchet slot for storage the ratchet bar 162 forms a line that is parallel to the base panel 113.
The first wing 111 further comprises a first handhold 122. The first handhold 122 is a first aperture that is formed in the first wing 111.
