Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a storage bag for solid material in particular to such a bag provided with improved lifting means.
  • the lifting means comprises two or more, usually four, loops located around the periphery of the top of the bag so that a fork lift truck can lift the bag by slotting each arm of the fork through a. loop, the loops being sufficiently long to fit over a crane hook suspended over the centre of the top of the bag.
  • a process of filling a storage bag which comprises lifting means which comprise four handles having openings adapted to accommodate the forks of a fork lift truck close to the bag when the bag is carried thereby, the handles comprising extensions capable of supporting the bag from four points whilst the bag is filled and which are also capable of engaging a lifting device at a single point above the bag which comprises suspending the bag by the extensions from four points, filling the bag, engaging the handles with the arms of a fork lift truck without disengaging the extensions, and subsequently removing the bag with the fork lift truck.
  • the invention further comprises a storage bag which comprises lifting means which comprises four handles which have openings adapted to accommodate the forks of a fork lift truck close to the bag when the bag is carried thereby and have extensions which are capable of engaging a lifting device at a single point above the bag characterised in that the extensions are such that the bag may be suspended from four points during a filling operation.
  • lifting means which comprises four handles which have openings adapted to accommodate the forks of a fork lift truck close to the bag when the bag is carried thereby and have extensions which are capable of engaging a lifting device at a single point above the bag characterised in that the extensions are such that the bag may be suspended from four points during a filling operation.
  • the extensions may be for example hooks secured at one end to the handles but are preferably connections which comprise openings for engaging the said lifting means and which are secured to the handles.
  • the handles are usually disposed around the periphery of the top of the bag which may be for example of rectangular, oval or circular cross-section. There are preferably four handles which may be disposed at the corners of a rectangluar for examples square topped bag of equidistant around the periphery of one of oval or circular cross-section.
  • the handles may be in the form of straps with two or more holes punched along the length of the strap each hole being reinforced to receive and sustain the suspended weight of the bag.
  • the handles comprise two or more interconnected loops of which one is attached to or formed integral with the bag. It has been found most practical for the handles to have two loops the first of which is attached to, or formed integral with the bag and is adapted to engage the forks of the fork lift truck. The second loop is then of such a length that it extends sufficiently far to engage a crane hook suspended over the centre of the top of the bag. It is also advantageous for the first loops to be sufficiently rigid so that they stand up from the bag top so facilitating the engagement of the arms of the fork lift. The second loop on the contrary is preferably sufficiently flexible to be manipulated over the crane hook.
  • the container (1) is a woven polypropylene bag and is rectangular in cross-section, the rectangle being 0.97 m long and 0.89 m wide.
  • the length of the bag is 1.05 m.
  • the bag is provided with four integral loops (2) (effective diameter for engagement purposes 29.3 cms) located at each corner of the rectangular end. Through each loop (2) is threaded a loop (3) (diameter 24.2 cms) of stitched polyester belting (4.5 cms wide).
  • the bag has a tube (4) for filling purposes and an outlet spout 5.
  • the loops (2) are fairly rigid and stand up from the edge of the bag. They are adapted to receive the two arms of the fork of a fork lift truck, the arms usually engaging two loops each.
  • the loops (3) are relatively flexible and can be extended as shown to fit over a crane hook suspended over the centre of the end of the bag.
  • the bag may be suspended by the extensions from four points such that when full a fork lift truck can remove the bag by engaging the handles without needing to disengage the extensions. In this way the need for a pallet or other lifting aid is avoided.
  • the container according to the invention may be used to transport solid powders in bulk, in particular it is useful for the transport of terephthalic acid and fertilisers.
