DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bag holder for holding a shopping bag called a plastic bag at a cash register or the like so that products can be packed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When shopping at a supermarket or the like, a shopping bag such as a plastic bag is handed out at the checkout, but conventionally, the shopping bag is stocked in a proper place such as under a cashier table. The cashier has taken out from here as appropriate according to the purchased product.

[0003] In addition, in the processing of goods at the time of shopping, first, a cashier in charge of a commodity brought by a customer to a cash register with a shopping basket is input to each cash register, and then transferred to another shopping basket. After the customer cleared the shopping basket, the customer transported the basket together with the bag received here to a work table for packing, and packed the goods in the bag.

[0004]

In the above-described conventional cash register system, the shopping bag is not always stocked in a place where it can be easily taken out. There is a problem that the shopping bag must be removed from the place where the stock is stored, which is not only troublesome but also a physical burden.

[0005] Further, in this system, a product once taken out of the shopping basket is returned to the shopping basket again, and after returning to the shopping basket, the customer returns to the shopping cart and clears it at the cash register. The problem was that the product had to be transported to the workbench and packed in bags, so the product had to be removed from the shopping basket twice at the cash register and in the vicinity, and this work was troublesome, causing the cash register to be crowded. was there.

Further, since a work table for bagging must be installed near the cash register, a work table of an appropriate size is required, and the installation space is also required, so that the sales floor area is reduced accordingly. There were also problems.

An object of the present invention is to solve these problems described above.

[0008]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, of the present invention, the invention according to claim 1 comprises a base,
A rising portion provided on the rear side of the base portion, a pair of parallel projecting portions provided so as to project forward from both left and right sides of the rising portion, and a projecting portion provided on each projecting portion. A bag holder is constituted by the handle portion and the shopping bag is opened and held by the pair of handle portions so that the product can be packed in the bag.

A second aspect of the present invention is characterized in that, in the configuration of the first aspect of the present invention, a limitation is provided that the handle hook is inclined outward and upward.

A third aspect of the present invention is characterized in that, in the configuration of the first aspect of the present invention, the handle hanging portion is limited to a trapezoidal or stair-like shape having a wide lower portion.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in addition to the structure of the first aspect of the present invention, a configuration is provided in which a hanging member having a protrusion at the tip is provided at the rising portion. .

[0012]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on illustrated embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a bag holder according to the present invention.
FIGS. 2, 3, and 4 are plan views of the bag holder, respectively.
A side view and a rear view are shown. As shown, the bag holder 1 is formed by bending a rod made of metal or the like, and stands upright on a frame-shaped base 2 and a rear side (left side in FIG. 3) of the base 2. The rising portion 3, a pair of projecting portions 4, 4 projecting forward (to the right in FIG. 3) from the rising portion 3 in a cantilever manner, and a handle provided to project upward from the projecting portion 4. 5.

The base 2 is obtained by bending a rod into a frame shape and attaching a flat plate material 9 thereto.

The rising portion 3 is a vertical frame-shaped member connected to the rear side of the base 2, and a reinforcing rod 7 is attached to a predetermined position in a lateral direction by appropriate means such as welding. .

The overhanging portion 4 has a substantially right-angled triangular shape in a side view and is provided continuously on both left and right sides (right and left sides in FIG. 2) of the rising portion 3.
And protrudes substantially horizontally forward (to the right in FIG. 3) so as to be parallel to both sides.

The handle portion 5 is a gate-shaped one provided on each of the left and right (left and right sides in FIG. 2) overhang portions 4 so as to protrude upward from the overhang portions 4, 4, respectively. The handle hooks 5 and 5 are inclined so that the upper part thereof opens outward (in the left-right direction in FIG. 4).

Further, a hook 6 is provided at the rising portion 3 between the left and right overhanging portions 4 and 4. The hanging member 6 is an inverted L-shaped member having a retaining projection 6a at the tip, and is provided in a pair such that the tip projects forward of the rising portion 3 (to the right in FIG. 3). ing.

In FIG. 3, reference numeral 8 denotes a reinforcing stay provided between the base 2 and the rising portion 3.

The bag holder 1 of the present invention has the above-described configuration.

Next, the method of use will be described. Prior to use, as shown in FIG. 5, the shopping bag 10 made of polyethylene or the like is opened and the handles 10b, 1 on both sides are expanded.
Ob is hooked on the handle portions 5 and 5 provided on the left and right overhang portions 4 and 4, respectively, to prepare. As a result, the shopping bag 10 is held at its mouth 10 by the bag holder 1.
a is held open.

The bag holder 1 to which the shopping bag 10 is attached in this manner is placed at a cash register of a supermarket or the like and used. At this time, the processing of the goods is as follows. First, the customer puts the goods in the shopping basket and brings it to the cash register, the cashier in charge takes out the goods from the shopping basket, inputs a bar code for each product, and directly loads this product, It is put in the shopping bag 10 held by the bag holder 1. Then, when the settlement is completed, it is sufficient to hold the left and right handles 10b, 10b of the shopping bag 10 and pull up the handles 10b, 10b so that the handles 10b, 10b come off the handle hooks 5, 5 of the bag holder 1. Thus, the customer can directly receive the product put in the shopping bag 10 and take it home.

After the shopping bag 10 containing the product is removed, an empty shopping bag 10 is newly attached to the bag holder 1 in the same manner as described above to prepare for the next settlement.

Also, for a small number of purchasers, the hook 6
It is sufficient to use a small shopping bag (not shown) that is hooked on the bag. In this case, waste of the bag material is prevented. It is not always necessary to use the hanging support 6 in this way. For example, the hanging support 6 may be used to store a plurality of new shopping bags to be attached to the handle holder 5.

As described above, the bag holder 1 of the present invention
What is used.

In the illustrated embodiment, the handle-shaped portion 5 has a gate shape. However, the handle-shaped portion 5 is provided by expanding the handle 10b of the shopping bag 10 so that the shopping bag can be inserted into the mouth portion. Any shape that can hold the open state of 10a may be used, and the shape may be a trapezoidal shape or a shape in which the lower side is spread in a step-like manner. The shopping bag can be held open. Or, again, this handle part 5
It is also possible to use two protrusions projecting from the overhanging portion 4 at a predetermined interval with a predetermined interval. In this case, the structure is simplified and the production can be performed at low cost.

Although the embodiment in which a rod made of metal or the like is bent has been illustrated as an embodiment, the bag holder 1 of the present invention has the same configuration and can hold the shopping bag 10 in the same manner as described above. For example, it may be formed of an angle material, a pipe, or a combination thereof.
