Abstract (en)

A container (1) has a handle (2) with a container engagement portion at each end thereof. Each engagement portion has a tongue (4) tapering from a width greater than the width of an adjacent portion of the handle to a narrower portion (7) at the free end to provide a barb where the engagement portions extend from the handle. Each engagement portion has an elongate aperture (5) extending either side of the barb and the engagement portions are engagable in diametrically opposed slots (10) in an upper portion of the container (1). The slots (10) are of a length less than the width of the tongues at the barb such that, upon insertion of the tongues in respective slots, the barbs are compressed until the barbs have passed through the slots (10) and snap outwardly into holding engagement with the material of the container defining the slots. <IMAGE>
