Abstract

A holder for plastic bags and similar items comprises a spring-clip 1 which has two legs 5a, 5b and an intermediate part 2,3 formed according to the appropriate bag opening, said legs passing into the intermediate part via sections 4a, 4b which are bent out of the intermediate part's plane and extend so that the legs lie in a plane which is situated at a distance below the plane of the intermediate part which essentially corresponds to the extent of the folded-over part of the bag opening. The free ends of the legs are bent round towards each other 6a, 6b and can either be joined to each other, or else connected to a movable part of a shaft which can also include a part which holds that part of the bag opening which is located between the connection points of the legs to the intermediate part, pushed in or fixed. <IMAGE>

Description

82013914-'7 På bif. ritning visas en som exempel angiven utföringsform av uppfinningen, varvid Fig. l utgör en perspektivvy av själva fjäderklämman under det att Fig. 2 utgör ett snitt genom övre delen av hållaren med ansluten påse, Fig. 3 utgör ett längdsnitt genom ett handtag för hållaren och Fig. Å slutligen ett planvy av skaftet och anslutande del av fjäderklämman. 82013914-'7 On bif. Fig. 1 shows an exemplary embodiment of the invention, wherein Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the spring clip itself, while Fig. 2 is a section through the upper part of the holder with the bag connected, Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through a handle for the holder and Fig. Å finally a plan view of the shaft and connecting part of the spring clamp.

Den nya hållaren, som på ritningen åskådliggörs i form av en påshållare, avsedd för upptagning av hundexkrementer, innefattar en fjäderklämma med den generella beteckningen l. Denna består av en genom bockning av ståltråd erhållen detalj, som innefattar en del 2, som i huvuddelen av sin sträckning har cirkelrund form men även uppvisar en rak del 3 för ett syfte som senare skall anges. Delen 2 övergår via ur delens 2 plan omböjda partier ka, üb i två som handtag tjänande skänklar Sa, 5b, vilka lämpligen ligger i ett med delen 2 parallellt plan och vilka divergerar i riktning från delen 2 samt har sina fria ändar omböjda i rikt- ning mot varandra 6a, 6b.The new holder, illustrated in the drawing in the form of a bag holder, intended for receiving dog excrement, comprises a spring clip with the general designation 1. This consists of a detail obtained by bending steel wire, which comprises a part 2, which in the main part of its stretch has a circular shape but also has a straight part 3 for a purpose to be stated later. The part 2 merges via portions ka, üb bent from the plane of the part 2 into two legs Sa, 5b serving as handles, which suitably lie in a plane parallel to the part 2 and which diverge in the direction from the part 2 and have their free ends bent in the direction against each other 6a, 6b.

Som framgår av fig. 2 år en påse 7 avsedd att anslutas till fjäderklämman genom att påsens mynningen omgivande parti 8 är vikt över delen 2, 3. För ernående av förbättrad fasthållning kan påsen enligt fig. 2 uppvisa en runtom gående, normalt utvändig vulst 9.As can be seen from Fig. 2, a bag 7 is intended to be connected to the spring clip by folding the portion 8, 3 surrounding the mouth of the bag over parts 2, 3. To achieve improved holding, the bag according to Fig. 2 can have a circumferential, normally external bead 9 .

Vid ett enklare, ej visat, utförande är skänkeländarna 6a, 6b förbundna med var- andra, varvid skänklarna som nämnts utgör hållarens handtag, men ett sådant enklare utförande eliminerar ej risken för skänklarnas oavsiktliga förande mot varandra och för att eliminera denna risk är skänklarna enligt fig. 3 och 4 införda i ett lämpligen av plastmaterial framställt handtag med den generella beteckningen ll.In a simpler, not shown, design, the leg ends 6a, 6b are connected to each other, the legs as mentioned constituting the handle of the holder, but such a simpler design does not eliminate the risk of the legs being accidentally moved towards each other and to eliminate this risk the legs are according to Figs. 3 and 4 inserted into a handle made of plastic material with the general designation 11.

Detta handtag innefattar vid det visade utförandet en underdel l2, vilken uppvisar _ en urtagning 13 vilken huvudsakligen följer skaftets koniska ytterform och upptar skänklarna Sa, Sb samt en djupare urtagning lä i vilken är förskjutbar en med l5 betecknad manöverdel vilken uppvisar två uppåtriktade utsprång 16, vilka utgår från en plan del 17, vilken lämpligen avslutas med en nedåtriktad gripdel 18. Som framgår av fig. 3 är skänkeländarna 6a, 6b avsedda att ingår i mellanrummet mellan utsprången 16 och det inses att skänklarna och hela fjäderklämman på detta sätt kommer att medbringas i manöverdelens förskjutningsrörelser. I underdelen är vidare upptagen en öppning 19 som tillåter manöverdelens inskjutñing i underdelen. Skaftet uppvisar även en överdel 21, vilken som framgår av fig. 3 kan ha en högre belägen främre del, vilken avslutas med en eggformad del 20, vilken kan genomtränga pås- materialet och därigenom åstadkomma en särskilt effektiv fasthâllning av påsen just 820139ë-7 i den del där fjäderklämman ej fasthåller påsen, nämligen i mellanrummet mellan skänklarna Sa, 5b. Organ eller partier för arretering av manöverdelen i verksamt resp. overksamt läge är lämpligen anordnade.In the embodiment shown, this handle comprises a lower part 12, which has a recess 13 which substantially follows the conical outer shape of the shaft and receives the legs Sa, Sb and a deeper recess 1a in which a maneuvering part designated by 15 is displaceable which has two upwardly directed projections 16, which start from a flat part 17, which suitably terminates with a downwardly directed gripping part 18. As can be seen from Fig. 3, the leg ends 6a, 6b are intended to be included in the space between the projections 16 and it will be appreciated that the legs and the entire spring clip will be carried in this way. in the displacement movements of the control part. An opening 19 is further accommodated in the lower part, which allows the operating part to be inserted into the lower part. The shaft also has an upper part 21, which as can be seen from Fig. 3 can have a higher located front part, which ends with an edge-shaped part 20, which can penetrate the bag material and thereby achieve a particularly effective holding of the bag just 820139ë-7 in the part where the spring clip does not hold the bag, namely in the space between the legs Sa, 5b. Bodies or parties for locking the operating part in the active resp. idle mode are conveniently provided.

Det inses att påsen anbringas vid fjäderklämman då dennas skänklar är förda mot varandra, antingen genom att de manuellt pressas mot varandra vid det enklare ut- förandet utan särskilt skaft eller genom att manöverdelen skjutits åt vänster i fig. 3 tills skänklarna förts mot varandra så mycket att påsen kan införas och dess mynningsparti vikas över delen 2, 3. Då så skett friges skänklarna Sa, Sb vid det enklare utförandet helt enkelt genom att de får fjädra tillbaka och vid utförandet enligt fig. 3 genom att manöverdelen 18 skjuts åt höger under medbringande av skänklarna Sa, Sb, vilka även i detta fall återgår på grund av fjäderklämmans elasticitet. Vid slutet av denna återgående rörelse genomtränger eggen eller egg- arna såväl den omvikta som den icke omvikta delen av påsens mynningsparti och åstad- kommer den ovan berörda säkra flxeringen. Det är givetvis ej nödvändigt att organen 20 utgörs av eggar utan de kan endast tjäna som antryckningsorgan i de fail då man ej önskar några hål i påsen.It will be appreciated that the bag is attached to the spring clip when its legs are brought against each other, either by manually pressing against each other in the simpler embodiment without a special shaft or by sliding the operating part to the left in Fig. 3 until the legs are moved towards each other so much that the bag can be inserted and its mouth portion folded over the part 2, 3. When this has happened, the legs Sa, Sb are released in the simpler embodiment simply by allowing them to spring back and in the embodiment according to Fig. 3 by pushing the operating part 18 to the right while carrying of the legs Sa, Sb, which also in this case return due to the elasticity of the spring clamp. At the end of this reciprocating movement, the edge or edges penetrate both the folded and the unfolded part of the mouth portion of the bag and achieve the above-mentioned safe flow. It is of course not necessary that the means 20 consist of edges, but they can only serve as pressing means in the failures when no holes in the bag are desired.

Det visade utförandet är som nämnts i första hand avsett att tjänstgöra som upp- samlingsanordning för hundexkrementer och för detta syfte uppvisar delen 2 ett rakt parti 3, varigenom uppskrapning av exkrement kan ske. Hâllaren ägnar sig även för andra ändamål såsom bärplockning, vattenhämtning etc. och den kan även tillverkas i ett större utförande för förvaring av sopor och liknande. Det är givetvis í sådana fall möjligt och lämpligt att ordna väggfästen, i vilka skaftet t.ex. kan ínhakas.The embodiment shown is, as mentioned, primarily intended to serve as a collecting device for dog excrement and for this purpose the part 2 has a straight portion 3, whereby scraping of excrement can take place. The holder is also suitable for other purposes such as berry picking, water collection, etc. and it can also be manufactured in a larger version for storing rubbish and the like. It is of course in such cases possible and suitable to arrange wall brackets, in which the shaft e.g. can be hooked.

Som framgår av fig. 5 och Fig. 6 kan skaftet ll' vara utformat relativt kort och de omböjda skänkelpartierna 6a,6b kan vara införda i en hylsa 22, vilken helt enkelt kan bestå av en relativt styv slangbit. Skaftet ll' kan därvid vara utformat med en ej visad greppdel så att man genom att hålla skaftet i denna dei och föra hylsan mot resp. från skaftet kan åstadkomma fjäderklämmans hoptryckande resp. expandering.As can be seen from Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, the shaft 11 'can be formed relatively short and the bent leg portions 6a, 6b can be inserted into a sleeve 22, which can simply consist of a relatively rigid piece of hose. The shaft 11 'can then be designed with a gripping part (not shown) so that by holding the shaft in this die and moving the sleeve towards resp. from the shaft can cause the spring clip to compress or expansion.

Det är givetvis även möjligt att ordna iåsanordningar för att säkra fjäderklämmans skänklar i förhållande till skaftet i verksamt resp. overksamt läge.It is of course also possible to arrange locking devices to secure the legs of the spring clamp in relation to the shaft in operative resp. idle mode.
