Claims (40)

1. An arrangement comprising:

a storage tray for a runged stepladder, the storage tray comprising:

at least one compartment into which objects can be placed; and

a plurality of receivers for hooks that are attachable to the storage tray; and

a hook having an insert section insertable into one of the receivers,

wherein at least a section of each of the receivers has a non-circular first cross-sectional area, and

wherein the insert section of the hook in at least one location or in a section has a non-circular cross-sectional area that corresponds to the non-circular first cross-sectional area of the receivers.

2. The arrangement of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the receivers has a receiving direction oriented in parallel with an upper side of the storage tray.

3. The arrangement of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the receivers has a receiving direction oriented vertically to an upper side of the storage tray.

4. The arrangement of claim 1 , wherein the hook has an interim section angled at approximately 90° to the insert section, and has a hook section angled at approximately 90° to the interim section, wherein the interim section connects the insert section and the hook section to each other.

5. A storage tray for a runged stepladder, comprising:

at least one compartment into which objects can be placed; and

a first receiver for a first element of a buckle closure that is attachable to the storage tray,

wherein the first receiver is a through hole in which at least one catch is arranged for the first element of the buckle closure,

wherein the first element of the buckle closure is guidable into the first receiver from a first side of the storage tray, and

wherein a second element of the buckle closure is insertable into the first receiver from a second side of the storage tray.

6. A storage tray for a runged stepladder, comprising:

at least one compartment into which objects can be placed; and

a first receiver for a first element of a buckle closure that is attachable to the storage tray,

wherein the first receiver is a through hole in which at least one catch is arranged for the first element of the buckle closure, and

wherein the storage tray has at least a first hole transverse to the first receiver, through which a locking device is guidable into the first receiver to secure the first element of the buckle closure.

7. An arrangement comprising:

a storage tray for a runged stepladder;

a belt; and

a locking device;

wherein the storage tray comprises:

at least one compartment into which objects can be placed,

a first receiver for a first element of a buckle closure that is attachable to the storage tray, wherein the first receiver is a through hole in which at least one catch is arranged for the first element of the buckle closure, and

at least one first hole transverse to the first receiver,

wherein the buckle closure includes the first element attached on a first end of the belt, the first element of the buckle closure being guidable into the first receiver of the storage tray from a first side of the storage tray and being attached in the first receiver with the catch in contact with the first receiver, and

wherein the locking device is guidable through the at least one first hole into the storage tray into a pocket in the first element of the buckle closure in order to secure the first element of the buckle closure against being pulled out from the first receiver.

8. An arrangement comprising:

a storage tray for a runged stepladder; and

a belt,

wherein the storage tray comprises:

at least one compartment into which objects can be placed, and

a first receiver for a first element of a buckle closure that is attachable to the storage tray, wherein the first receiver is a through hole in which at least one catch is arranged for the first element of the buckle closure,

wherein the buckle closure includes:

the first element attached on a first end of the belt, the first element of the buckle closure being guidable into the first receiver of the storage tray from a first side of the storage tray and being attached in the first receiver with the catch in contact with the first receiver, and

a second element attached on a second end of the belt.
