Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for facilitate the carrying of bags with handles, or other loads such as bundles of cords, cans of paint, ski boots, etc., which can be hung said device.
  • FR-A-1.356.457 a handle for easy carrying of light packages closed by a link, consisting of a wooden tube or in cardboard through which a metal rod passes ending, at each of its ends, with a hook, so that you can hang the string around the package to be transported.
  • the document FR-A- 388.910 proposes a handle always made of heteroclyte materials, but part of which central is made of flexible material, leather.
  • the leather flexibility is limited, so that after several uses of the handle under loads important it no longer resumes its original form. In in addition, it does not allow any shock absorption caused by the wearer's walking.
  • the object of the invention is in particular to remedy the disadvantages and inadequacies of carrying handles described in the above documents.
  • this object is achieved thanks to a carrying handle, the central body of which forms the handle itself is made of a material with of an elastic deformation capacity, and in that said body comprises two superimposed parts or branches and spaced flexible, separated by an opening elongated extending between the terminal areas constituting hooks.
  • the carrying handle with the features above provides many advantages.
  • the flexibility or elasticity of the handle provides, on the one hand, exceptional comfort during transport charges, and confers, on the other hand, a very high stability to the handle when it is in charge.
  • Comfort comes from the flexibility of the part central which acts as a shock absorber, and which thus considerably reduces the shocks caused, in particular, by the oscillations of the walking of a user.
  • This characteristic thus makes it possible to eliminate times the pain caused to the hands by the handles, and the risk of inadvertent tearing of the bags.
  • Stability is acquired by the curvature of the handle which takes the form of an inverted "U" under load, which allows to shift the application points of the 3 parallel but opposite forces which are exerted on the handle, namely: 2 forces vertical downwards at the ends, and a vertical force directed upwards in the center.
  • the handle cannot snap due to the fact that in case of suspension of too heavy loads at its ends, it is the stop or one of the branches which will break in the first place, so the wearer will be alerted and will have time to put the bags on the ground before the handle is completely broken.
  • the handle can be placed comfortably on the forearm, or on the shoulder "slung", which allows at least one free hand, for example to open a door, or to hold the hand of a child, etc.
  • the handle according to the invention can be executed in any plastic material having semi-rigidity and desirable flexibility and it is very openwork, so its weight can be reduced to around twenty of grams while being very solid.
  • This carrying device or handle comprises, in known manner, an elongated central body 1 constituting the handle proper and whose terminal parts are shaped so symmetrical to constitute hooks 2 whose inputs 3 are preferably oriented upwards, in direction of the central part of said handle.
  • the central body 1 forming a handle is flexible, which means it can bend under the weight of a load suspended or attached to its parts hook-shaped terminals.
  • the carrying device is in one piece and can be executed in any material suitable semi-rigid with flexibility or elasticity required.
  • it can be molded in one piece in a plastic material or in a semi-rigid and flexible composite material such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene copolymer, polyamide, etc.
  • the central body or handle itself 1 has a curved or arcuate shape with oriented convexity upwards considering the functional position or normal use position of the device.
  • the bulge of the central body defines as follows, from its apogee 0, two opposite slopes 4 ending, respectively, at entry 3 in brackets 2. This layout greatly promotes engagement of handles bags in the hooks 2, the handles sliding in effect naturally towards entry 3 of said hooks when placed on the top surface convex 4-4 of the central body 1.
  • the central body or handle itself includes two superimposed flexible parts or branches 5 and 6 and spaced apart, separated by an elongated opening 7 extending between the terminal areas constituting the hooks 2.
  • the internal face of at least one of the branches 5, 6 is provided with a stop 8 arranged projecting from said internal face and oriented towards the face internal of the other branch.
  • a space E separates, in rest position, the free edge of the stop 8 and the internal face of said other branch.
  • this stop 8 is arranged in the portion central of the lower branch 6 and it has, preferably an elongated shape and a free edge convex 8a on which the face can rest internal concave of the upper branch.
  • a reverse arrangement that is to say a stop integral with the internal face of the upper branch 5 and having a free edge concave likely to lean on the internal face convex of the lower branch 6.
  • the stop 8 preferably has a thickness much narrower than the width of the branch 6, as shown in Figure 2, which allows a gain of weight and material savings, without harming the solidity of the handle.
  • the handle according to the invention may have a length of about 190 mm, a width of about 20 mm in its central part, a spacing of around 17 mm between its branches 5 and 6 which may have a thickness of the order of 2 to 3 mm.
  • Each terminal part of the device or hook 2 forms a loop from the end of the central body and going up above this end by delimiting a housing 9 for the handles A of bags S, or for links or other parts of the loads transported, the free end portion 10 of the hook extending over the end of said body central.
  • the end of the free terminal part 10 of hooks 2 deviates from the upper convex surface 4 of the central body 1, so as to present an entry 3 whose walls converge towards the bottom of the housing 9, which is delimited by a surface having a rounded profile.
  • the terminal part free 10 of the hooks 2 is provided, on its internal face, of a rounded boss 11 which is practically in contact with said upper surface.
  • the elasticity of material in which the device is executed allows to separate the free end portion 10 from the hooks 2 to allow the passage of the handles of bags, links or other attachment parts, when engaged in the housings 9 or when they are removed from these housing.
  • the bosses 11 oppose effectively at the unwanted exit of the bag handles, links or other attachment parts retained in the housings 9, which allows in particular to keep the bags closed and prevents their contents from spilling unfortunately, when placed on the ground or in a motor car.
  • bosses 11 could be provided on the upper surface 4 of the ends of the central body 1, facing the internal surface of the free end portion 10 of the hooks 2.
