Plunger caddy assembly
A plunger caddy assembly includes a plunger and a caddy that receives the plunger. The plunger is selectively rotatable in a first direction relative to the caddy to release the plunger from the caddy. The plunger is selectively rotatable in a second direction relative to the caddy to secure the plunger within the caddy.
1. A plunger caddy assembly, comprising:
a plunger;
a caddy that receives said plunger, wherein said caddy includes a base, a tray received by said base, and a plurality of wheels mounted between said base and said tray, wherein said tray rotates on said wheels relative to said base, and said plunger is selectively rotatable in a first direction relative to said caddy to release said plunger from said caddy and is selectively rotatable in a second direction relative to said caddy to secure said plunger within said caddy; and
at least two clamshell doors pivotally connected to said caddy.
2. The assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein said tray is rotatable in said first direction relative to said base to release said plunger from said caddy and is rotatable in said second direction to secure said plunger relative to said caddy.
3. The assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein said at least two clamshell doors move between a closed position and a separated position in response to rotation of said tray relative to said caddy.
4. The assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein said first direction is a counterclockwise direction and said second direction is a clockwise direction.
5. The assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein each of said at least two clamshell doors are pivotally secured to said base with an axle.
6. The assembly as recited in claim 1 , wherein said plunger includes a handle, and said plunger is selectively rotated about a longitudinal axis of said handle in each of said first direction and said second direction relative to said caddy to release said plunger from said caddy and secure said plunger within said caddy.
7. A plunger caddy assembly, comprising:
a plunger; and
a caddy that selectively receives said plunger, said caddy having a base, a tray received by said base, and at least two clamshell doors contacting one of said base and said tray, wherein said tray is rotatable relative to said base to move each of said at least two clamshell doors between a first position and a second position, wherein said at least two clamshell doors each include at least one cantilevered arm that extends between said at least two clamshell doors and said tray, and rotation of said tray pivots said cantilevered arms to move said at least two clamshell doors between said first position and said second position.
8. The assembly as recited in claim 7 , wherein each of said at least two clamshell doors are separated from one another in said second position.
9. The assembly as recited in claim 8 , wherein said at least two clamshell doors are non-contiguous in said second position.
10. The assembly as recited in claim 7 , wherein each of said at least two clamshell doors is pivotally mounted to said base with an axle.
11. A plunger caddy assembly, comprising:
a plunger; and
a caddy that selectively receives said plunger, said caddy having a base, a tray received by said base, and at least two clamshell doors contacting one of said base and said tray, wherein said tray is rotatable relative to said base to move each of said at least two clamshell doors between a first position and a second position, wherein each of said at least two clamshell doors is pivotally mounted to said base with an axle, and said axle includes an arm having a tab that engages an indentation of said tray to pivot said at least two clamshell doors about said axle.
