Detachable handle having a pivotal part

Claim 1

A detachable carrying handle comprising a web section and a pair of parallel limb sections extending in a longitudinal direction for carrying a portable equipment, said portable equipment having on each side thereof facing each of said limb sections a recess and a projection, the projection on one side is aligned along an axis with the projection on the other side, each of said limb sections including a first part connected at one end to said web section and a separate second part pivotally connected to the other end of said first part, said first part including a pin for transversely releasably engaging into said recess of said equipment and a longitudinally extending recess, said projection being inserted into the longitudinal recess and then slidably moved in the longitudinal direction in the longitudinal recess when said handle is moved in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction to thereby maintain said handle in an upright position conjointly with said pin while allowing said handle to pivotally rotate about the axis when said pin is disengaged from said equipment recess, and means for urging the portion of said second part adjacent to said first part toward said equipment, said second part being engageable with said projection after said projection is inserted and slidably moved in the longitudinal direction in said longitudinal recess to prevent said handle from detaching from said equipment recess if said handle is moved in a direction opposite to the longitudinal direction and disengageable from said projection when pviotally rotated about a pivot against said urging means to allow said handle to be detached from said equipment by being moved in a direction opposite to the longitudinal direction.
