发明名称 Storage case for a hand mixer
摘要 A storage case is removably attachable to a hand mixer for mixing foodstuffs. The storage case includes a bottom wall that extends generally parallel to a bottom surface of the hand mixer when the storage case is attached to the hand mixer. A pair of spaced-apart and generally opposing side walls extend generally perpendicularly from the bottom wall of the storage case. A pair of spaced-apart and generally opposing end walls each extending generally perpendicularly from the bottom wall and the side walls of the storage case. At least a portion of one of the walls of the storage case is pivotally attached by a hinge. The bottom wall, side walls and end walls in combination with the bottom wall generally define a cavity for storing at least one mixing tool therein.

主权项 1. A storage case removably attachable to a hand mixer for mixing foodstuffs, the storage case comprising: a bottom wall extending generally parallel to a bottom surface of the hand mixer when the storage case is attached to the hand mixer; a pair of spaced-apart and generally opposing side walls, each sidewall extending generally perpendicularly from the bottom wall; and a pair of spaced-apart and generally opposing end walls, each end wall extending generally perpendicularly from the bottom wall and the side walls, the bottom wall, side walls and end walls in combination with the bottom surface of the hand mixer generally defining a cavity for storing at least one mixing tool therein, a continuous free edge defined by the side walls and end walls, the free edge having a generally contoured shape that generally conforms to the bottom surface of the hand mixer, the end wall that is proximate a rear of the hand mixer when the storage case is attached to the hand mixer includes a door therein, wherein the door is pivotable about a living hinge from a closed position to enclose the cavity to an open position generally providing access to the cavity, at least one latching hook extending generally perpendicularly from an interior surface of the door, a distal end of each latching hook extending from the interior surface of the door including an enlarged rib; and at least one opening in the end wall proximate the rear of the hand mixer when the storage case is attached to the hand mixer, wherein the at least one latching hook is sized and shaped to engage the at least one opening when the door is in the closed position, and at least one pull tab extending upwardly from the free edge of the storage case.
