The invention catches and stores pucks and balls. The frame consists of two U-shaped members. The two U-shaped frame members are joined by a plurality of members. Members attach the top and bottom of the two U-shaped members together. Further members join the two legs of each U-shaped members. The attaching members support a floor for the device. The device is covered with a flexible mesh covering. The device also has a carrying strap attached to the top of the two U-shaped members. The device has a ramp with elevated sides and with slots at one end of the elevated sides. The ramp is attached to one of the U-shaped members by pins through the slots. When opened, the the ramp or lid descends to the surface at an angle. When the ramp or lid is closed, it is parallel to the U-shaped member to which it is attached and is locked in place.

What is claimed is: 1. A device for catching, loading, holding and storage of ice hockey pucks and other pucks and balls said device comprising: a front (1) and a rear (2) U-shaped member, wherein said front and rear U-shaped members comprising two straight portions joined by a curved portion, said front U-shaped member being greater in height than said rear U-shaped member; said U-shaped members are attached to four additional members, two members (5) and (6) attached to said straight portion of the U-shaped front member (1) and the U-shaped rear member ( 2) near the end of said U-shaped members which rest on the surface on which said device rests on the straight portion of said members and said other two members (3) and (4) attached to said front U-shaped member (1) and said rear U-shaped member (2) near the top of said straight sides of the front (1) and rear (2) U-shaped member above members (5) and (6); a floor (16) attached to said bottom portion of said two members (5) and (6) which join said front (1) and said rear (2) U-shaped member to said floor; said floor curving upwardly and attaching to a member (8) which is attached to said front U-shaped member (1) which runs between said two straight portions of U-shaped member (1) which in turn attaches to member (7) for joining said two straight portions of said rear U-shaped member (2) at the same level as members (5) and ( 6); wherein said device is covered by a mesh (17) material; wherein said device is carried by a strap or handle (11 ) connected to said top of said U-shaped front member (1) and U-shaped rear member (2); a loading ramp (12) attached to said front U-shaped members (1) by two pins (15) which are attached to said front U-shaped member (1) which said pins (15) running through a slot (14) on each of said two sides (13) of said loading ramp (12), said loading ramp (12) is locked in place when said ramp is in a closed position; and when said ramp is in an open position, said front of said ramp touches the surface on which said device rests upon, said rear of said ramp raising up to and ending just above said floor (16) allowing pucks to be guided up said ramp ( 12) and landing on said floor (16) of said device; and wherein when said pucks are fully loaded, said ramp (12 ) is moved to said closed positioned and locked in place allowing said pucks to be carried securely without falling out or being lost. 2. The device as defined in claim 1, wherein the U-shaped members (1) and (2) are replaced by two members comprising a right and left upright post member joined by a horizontal member attached to one end of said two left and right upright members. 3. The device as defined in claim 1, wherein said floor of said ramp is made from a mesh material. 4. The device as defined in claim 1, wherein said ramp ( 12) is a perforated ramp or a solid ramp. 5. The device as defined in claim 1, wherein said carrying handle (11) is a flexible member or a U-shaped rigid member. 6. The device as defined in claim 1, wherein said floor ( 16) is made of a flexible material of a stiff material. 7. The device as defined in claim 1, wherein said sides, back and top of said device is made from a stiff material or a flexible material.
