Abstract (en)

A tool carrier (10) includes an outer carrier (12) and an inner carrier (14). The outer carrier (12) includes a flexible material and has a main container portion (16) and a cover portion (18). The main container portion (16) and the cover portion (18) form a storage space (20). The cover portion (18) is movable between open and closed positions, and a zipper (22) enables the cover portion (18) to be releasably secured in the closed position. The outer carrier (12) includes a pair of shoulder straps (24) to facilitate carrying of the outer carrier (12). The inner tool carrier (14) is constructed and arranged to form a divider within the storage space of the outer carrier (12) and to be removed from the outer carrier (12). The inner tool carrier includes a base portion (26) and a plurality of exposed compartments (28) formed on the base portion (26), and a carrying handle (30) formed on an upper portion (32) of the inner tool carrier (14) to enable the inner tool carrier (14) to be transported separately from the outer carrier (14). The base portion (26) includes sufficient rigidity to be self supporting in an upstanding configuration when the inner tool carrier (14) is in the outer carrier (12) to enable the inner tool carrier (14) to support tools within the pockets (28) without collapsing.
