Tool storage
Described herein are various coupling systems to be used with storage units that are selectively coupled and decoupled. The coupling systems may be used with storage units that are stackable and/or transportable, thus allowing the storage units to function well within a large stationary environment, such as a basement, and also for a subset of the storage units to be selected and easily moved to another location.
1. A container assembly comprising:
a first container comprising:
a first coupler extending from a first face of the first container, the first coupler comprising a body and an overhang extending from the body over the first face; and
a latch; and
a second container comprising:
a latch receptacle configured to interface with the latch;
a first coupling wall extending perpendicularly outward away from a continuous second face of a first exterior wall of the second container, the first coupling wall comprising a first rib wall that extends from the first coupling wall in a first direction above the continuous second face, the first coupling wall comprising a second rib wall that extends from the first coupling wall in a second direction opposite the first direction above the continuous second face, the first rib wall of the first coupling wall configured to engage with the first coupler.
2. The container assembly of claim 1 , the second container comprising a second coupling wall comprising a third rib wall that extends from the second coupling wall above the continuous second face towards the first coupling wall, the first rib wall of the first coupling wall and the third rib wall of the second coupling wall configured to collectively engage the first coupler.
3. The container assembly of claim 2 , the first container comprising a second coupler, the second container comprising a third coupling wall comprising a fourth rib wall that extends from the third coupling wall above the continuous second face towards the first coupling wall, the second rib wall and the fourth rib wall configured to collectively engage with the second coupler.
4. The container assembly of claim 2 ,
the first container comprising a second coupler comprising a body and an overhang extending from the body over the first face;
the second coupling wall comprising a fourth rib wall that extends above the continuous second face;
the second container comprising a third coupling wall comprising a fifth rib wall and a sixth rib that extend from the third coupling wall in opposing directions above the continuous second face, the fifth rib wall of the third coupling wall and the fourth rib wall of the second coupling wall configured to collectively engage the second coupler.
