FRUIT-GATHERING BAG.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 17, 19218.
Application filed February 26. 1918. Serial No. 219,176.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, AMANDUs VVEAvnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in F ruit-Gathering Bags, of which the follow ing is a specification.
One object of my invention is to provide a fruit-gathering bag which can be sus pended around a persons neck while gathering fruit or the like and which will be so constructed that the mouth or inlet end of the bag will always be open to enable the fruit to be freely and quickly inserted therein without necessitating the manual opening of the mouth of the bag or any part thereof.
Another object is to so construct my invention that it will not inconvenience a person While gathering fruit since the arrangement is such that it can be adjusted in various positions according to requirements.
A further object is to make my invention of a simple and durable construction so that it can be manufactured and sold at a low cost.
These objects, and other advantageous ends which will be described hereinafter, I
' attain in the following manner, reference being had to the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of my invention,
Fig. 2 is a top plan view of my invention partly broken away,
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of Fig. 2,
Fig. 4 is a transverse section on the line l-4 of Fig. 3, the suspending strap being omitted, and
Fig. 5 is a face view of a modified form of means for holding the mouth of the bag open and providing an attachment for the suspending strap.
Referring to Figs. 1 to 4, inclusive, of the drawing, 1 represents a bag which can be made of any tough textile fabric, such as canvas, duck, or the like, and is of tubular formation closed at its lower end 2, preferably by a seam of stitches 3 which pass through opposite sides thereof and form a closed bottom. A strip 4: is secured at its opposite ends to the end 2 of the bag 1 and between its ends is free of the bag, as clearly shown at 5 in Figs. 1 and 3.
A suspending strap 6, which is adapted to be passed around the neck of the wearer of the bag, has a looped end 7 provided with a link or loop 8. The link 8 surrounds the strip a and is free to slide from one end to the other for a purpose hereinafter described. The opposite end of the strap 6 is provided with a snap hook 9 which engages an eyelet 10 which projects from a ring 11. The ring 11 and eyelet 10 are formed of a single piece of wire, the eyelet being produced by twisting the wire, as at 12, to prevent the spreading of the ring 11, the ends 13 of the wire overlapping, as clearly illustrated in Figs. 1 and 4:.
The top end 14; of the bag 1 is provided with a hem or housing 15 for the ring 11 so that the ring 11 is inclosed within said hem 15 throughout its entire circumference. The ring 11 thus holds the end 1% of the bag 1 open so that the fruit can be readily inserted within the bag, as above noted. The hem 15 may be stitched, as shown at 16, to hold the ring in position and to form a neat and durable end portion for the bag.
In Fig. 5 I have shown a ring 17 which can be made of cast metal or the like and has an integral eyelet 18. If desired a ring of this character could be substituted for the ring 11 and eyelet 10, above described, in which case the ring 17 would act to hold the mouth of the bag open and the eyelet 18 would serve as attaching means for the snap hook of the suspending strap in the same capacity as the eyelet 10 serves as the connecting means for the snap hook 9 and the strap 6. I
In use, the bag while the fruit is being gathered can be suspended from a persons neck and the bag can extend at an incline, as shown in Fig. 1. 'If during the filling of the bag the bag becomes uncomfortable due to the position or shape of the fruit within the bag, the link 8 can be quickly and easily moved along the strip a to slightly change the position of the bag to suit the comfort of the wearer.
When the bag has been filled, it can be easily dumped by unhooking the snap hook 9 from its eyelet and after the contents of the be has been dumped the eyelet 10 can be quic ly caught within the hook 9 and the bag can be refilled.
While I have described my invention as taking a particular form, it will be understood that the various parts of my invention may be changed without departing from the spirit thereof, and hence I do not limit myself to the precise construction set forth but consider that I am at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly come Within the scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A bag of the character described closed at its bottom and open at its top; a strip extending across and secured at its ends to said bottom of the bag so as to permit an elongated portion of said strip between its ends to be free of the bottom of the bag; and
a shoulder strap having a portion attached tothe top of the bag and a loop encircling 15 said tree portion of the strip and capable of freely sliding from one end to the other of said latter portion, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my 20 Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents, Washington, G.
