PAPER BAG Filed Sept. 5, 1930 Uil.
jf @E x e Q`1,986,s'981" e 1 PAPER BAGv .e
f i 3 Claims.
l The present `invention relates to improvements i in carrier bags and more particularly to a light paper bag of the open top type which is provided with a cord or the like which provides a pair of ilexible handles at the top of the bag to facilitate the carrying of the bag, find which by passing under the bottomof the bag serves to support e the weight of the contentsof the bag. and thereby the handles Will have their vertical parts spaced more closely with the result that they will yform comfortable handles and will not tend to tear or mar the bag. This I accomplish generally by disposing the two strands of the cord that lie against each side wall of the bag in Such a manner rthat they converge toward the `top of the bag. By this arrangement the loaded bag is supported by the cords passing under `the bottom of the bag so that the two parallel strands are spaced from each other on the bottom of the bag much more than the parts that form each handle. l,
More particularly I prefer to slant the strands lyngagainst the sides of the bag so that when the bag is loaded the distance between the strands u under the bottom will equal approximately onehaif the width of the bag in its distended condition. t By` this arrangement of the cord on the bag the load, which consists largely of smallitems' or parcels,A will be properly supported by the cord.
. The invention will be more clearly understood by reference to the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a side view of the folded bag. e Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional View of the folded bag. e t
i Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the bag when distended.
. In thev drawing 10 represents the bag having sidewalls 11I and 12 and bottom 13. While as shown the bottom 13, when folded, forms a gusset, it will be understood that the present invention may be applied to other types of bags.
'Each side wall of the bag is providedwith a pair of perforations 14 near its top and with a pair of perforations 15 near its bottom. The endf Harold* smithwicascar'saaia N. EY., `assigner `to i n -Continentaljlaper-"dt"Bag Corperation,` New "ppliatioisepteinter 3, 11930seriarivb-.4vafis (oiizzsL-sn that the portions 17 form a pair of `substantially parallel strands under the bottom 13 when the bag is distended and loaded. The cord also forms the carrying handles 18 at the top of the bag.
'I'he perforations 14 are so spaced that the handlesconform to the hand and do not tend to tear the bag. The distance between the perforations 15 is greater than that between the perfora-` tions 14 so that the strands 17 lying under the bottom ofthe bag are so spaced that they will eiectively` support the load.l More specifically, I prefer to space the perforations 15 so that the strands 17 will each lie on the bottom of the bag along a line removed fromfthe corresponding edge e of the bag approximately one quarter the width of the bag. By this means each half of thecord supports half the contents of the bag at ap-` proximately its` midpoint.
In order to clearly illustrate the principle of the invention the strands `19 which lie slanted against the side Walls of the bag `are shown with the slant somewhat exaggerated.` It will be understood, however, that'the main feature of the invention resides in disposing the strands 17 so that they are spread over the `bottom of` the bag to a greater extent than is obtained in construction where the strands 19 are parallel.
While the present invention may be applied to any` type of bag, the invention as shown is preferably applied to the type of bag shown for the reason that it affords ready access to the interior of the bag both during loading and unloading and for the further reason that the gusset `sliaped infolded bottom permits the bag and its bottom to open readily as it is loaded andobviates the necessity, common in other types of carrier bags, of spreading open the bottom of the bag before it is loaded.
What is claimed is:-
1. In combination, a collapsible paper bag having side walls adapted to fall against each other and a square bottom foldable inward between the side Walls along a line that extends substantially centrally of the bottom, each of said side walls having a pair of horizontally spaced perforations near the top thereof and a pair of `horizontally. spaced perforations near the bottom thereof, the distance between said last mentioned pair of perforations being substantially greater than the distance between the first mentioned pair ofperforations, and an endless cord strungV through said perforations and extending around the bottom of the bag, said cord forming handles at the top of the bag, having parts lying flat against tom of the bag, said cord forming handles at the top of the bag, having parts lying at against the v the walls of the bag along lines convergent to- Wards thetop of the bag, and having parts eX- tending across the bottom of the bag in Widely spaced, substantially parallel relation.
2, In combinationa collapsible paper bag having side walls adapted lto fall against each other and a square bottomlfoldable inward between the side Walls along aline that extends substantially centrally of thebottom, each of said side walls having a pair of horizontally spaced perforations near the top thereof and a pair of horizontally spaced perforations near the bottom thereof, the distance between said last mentioned pair of perforations being substantially greater than the distance between the rst mentioned pair of perforations, and an endless cord strung through said perforations and extending around the bot- Wall of the bag along lines convergent towards the top of the bag, and having parts extending across the bottom of the bag in Widely spaced, substantially parallel relation.
3. In combination, a collapsible bag having side Walls adapted to fall against each other and an infolded square bottom, said side Walls having perforations `and an endless cord strung through said perfo-rations, said cord having parts lying at against the Walls of the bag along lines convergent towards the top of the bag and parts extending freely around the bottom of the bag along lines spaced from the corresponding edges of the Abag and substantially parallel to one another, and'said cord forming hand conforming handles at the top of the bag whereby the bag is readily distended during loading.
