Abstract

A lunch box incorporates a radio which is positioned on a side surface and held in position by means of a flexible bracket. A side surface has a plurality of apertures for transmitting sound propagating from the radio. The front surface intermediate with the side surface has an aperture to enable a user to access control knobs positioned on the side surface of the receiver. A further aperture is covered by a clear plastic to enable a user to view the station to which the radio is tuned. The radio is retained within the lunch box by means of the above noted bracket which is lined with an insulating foam to protect the radio from the items which may be carried within the lunch box.
