Abstract

A hand-held and or operator carry-able device for retaining and holding the open end of a bag/sack in an open position comprises an annular support frame 1 with a groove/channel around the complete or partial circumference for receiving the open top and a flexible annular retainer 2 of solid or tubular cross section that fits into the groove thus trapping the bag. The frame 1 may be provided with a hand grip 6, and a loop 5 for suspending the device from a belt may also be provided. A sweep plate, see Figure 3, may be held in place by or made integral with the retainer 2. The device may be carried by an operator or hooked over a support bracket. <IMAGE>

Description

BAG RETAINER This invention relates to a portable/hand-held device for retaining and holding a bag/sack in an open position such that the bag/sack may be filled or emptied.
Both bags and sacks will hereafter be referred to as bag/s.
Bags can be difficult to fill unless the opening is supported.
According to the present invention there is provided a lightweight hand portable bag holder comprising of an annular support frame incorporating a channel, or groove/s, around its outer circumference, or part thereof, and a flexible annular bag retainer which could be of solid or tubular cross section and of such a size that when located in the support frame channel groove becomes a close fit in between the sidewalls of that channel.
The bag retainer could be a continuous flexible ring a shown in the diagrams or formed as a non-continuous clip that can be flexed open and then released to fit into the groove.
The device may be fitted with a handle/hand grip, bag strain straps/mesh, and or attachment such that it may be suspended from a waist belt/ shoulder harness. The support frame could be formed as a round/oval, D-shaped, or multi sided shape.
The bag support frame would typically be made as a plastic moulding/s or formed from plastic extrusions. The bag retainer would typically be extruded as a flexible plastic tube and joined to form a continuous ring.
A specific embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing in which: Figure 1 shows the bag holder support frame 1 formed as a "D"- shaped device of channel section and incorporating an inset hand hold tube 6. The flexible tubular bag retainer 2 has a loop 5 through which a suspension belt may be passed.
Figure 2 shows the bag holder fitted to a bag. The enlarged section shows how the prime bag grip is achieved by the tube entrapment of the bag between the flanges of the channel.
Figure 3 shows an enlarged cross section of the lower flat side of the above device assembled with a sweep plate which is held in place by or made integral with the bag retainer tube.
Figure 4 shows how the long flat side of the device may be hooked over a support bracket.
