A detachable carrying handle comprising a web section and a pair of parallel limb sections for carrying a portable equipment having on each side a recess and a projection which is aligned with the projection on the other side. Each limb section comprises a first part connected to the web section and a second part pivotally connected to the first part. The first part is formed with a longitudinally extending recess into which the projection is inserted by moving the handle in a direction away from the equipment and a pin which is transversely releasably received in the equipment recess. The upper edge of the second part is urged about its pivot by a spring toward the equipment and is engageable with the projection when the latter is received in the longitudinal recess so that the handle is held in an upright position. The handle can be tilted sideways with a force sufficient to disengage the pin from the equipment recess and can be detached from the equipment by pivotally rotating the second part against the spring and moving the handle in a direction toward the equipment.
