Abstract
Abstract A servicing kit for chain saws comprising nested compartments which collectively have an external symmetry with respect to the longitudinal bisector of the structure, said compartments having interior walls, one of which projects into the interior wall of the other to an extent such that the ratio of the volumes of the compartments to each other is approximately two-to-one, a compartment included between the interior walls constituted by a diagonal depression in one of the walls which terminates short of the bottom and is open at the top and a carrying handle at the top. There are filling openings at the tops of the respective compartments located symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal bisector at opposite sides of the handle and pouring spouts pivotally mounted to the filling openings for pivotal movement from positions substantially parallel to the handle to positions extending beyond one end and said handle contains along its opposite sides recesses for receiving the pouring spouts when folded into parallel relation thereto. There are also supports for retaining the pouring spouts in their folded positions and these supports contain vent openings in communication with the respective compartments.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
232 words
A container for transporting in separate compartments of different volume different materials comprising two entirely complete receptacles, each having outer side walls of identical configuration and inner side walls comprising planar portions adapted to be juxtaposed to provide a composite structure which is symmetrical with respect to the plane of said planar portions and within the planar portions an inner recessed wall and an inner protruding wall of such configuration that when the receptacles are juxtaposed, the protruding inner wall extends into the recessed inner wall, said outer wall of the two receptacles at the top containing filling openings adjacent one end situated symmetrically with respect to the plane of the planar portions of the receptacles, spouts pivotally connected at one end to said filling openings and half-handles integrally formed to the outer walls at the top intermediate the ends of the outer walls having planar surfaces situated in the planes of the planar surfaces of the inner walls adapted to meet in the plane of the planar surfaces of the inner walls to collectively define a whole handle and means for securing the two receptacles in juxtaposed relation, said spouts being pivotally movable from positions extending laterally from the container to positions parallel to the handle and said handle containing recesses for receiving and confining the distal ends of the spouts in a stored position at opposite sides of the handle.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
41 words
A container according to claim 1 wherein at the interfaces of said inner walls there is a diagonal depression, the upper end of which emerges through the top of the composite structure and is symmetrical with respect to said planar surfaces.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
43 words
A container according to claim 1 wherein there are support surfaces on the half-handles positioned to become engaged by the ends of the spouts when the latter are folded into parallel relation to the handle to frictionally retain the spouts in said positions.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
18 words
A container according to claim 3 wherein said support surfaces contains vent openings in communcation with the receptacles.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
15 words
A container according to claim 1 wherein there is hinge means joining the two receptacles.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
14 words
A container according to claim 1 wherein said spouts are comprised of translucent material.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
36 words
A container according to claim 1 comprising means for closing the distal ends of the spouts when they are folded parallel to the handle and to open them when they are removed from said folded position.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
38 words
A container according to claim 1 wherein the spouts have ventral stops on their undersides to prevent too far penetration of the spouts into the filling openings through which the contents of the containers are to be dispensed.
