Abstract

A removable container assembly comprised of a container portion and a support portion for supporting the container portion from a support structure. The support portion includes a latch mechanism which comprises a latch portion and a release portion. The container assembly is an integral unitary member. The latch portion is normally in latched engagement with an abutment extending from the support structure which prevents the support portion from being removed from the support structure. The release portion manually rotates the latch portion about an integral connector from the latched engagement for removal of the container assembly from the support structure.
