Definitions

• the present invention relates to a bag holder handle intended to simplify the gripping, transport, handling of bags provided with carrying handle.
• this invention relates to a rigid handle that can accommodate the carrying handles of several plastic bags, especially those of large areas, in order to provide comfort and ease in the handling of said bags, also to avoid the opening of said bags when we put them on the ground.
• embarrassment factor if, after shopping, we deposit filled bags on the ground (payment for purchases, opening a car trunk or front door, taking a child in the arms )., it is very common that once released, the bags collapse in a disorderly manner, releasing their content which spreads on the ground.
• the present invention therefore provides a bag-carrying handle remarkable for the fact that it is composed of a cylindrical body, crossed perpendicularly by a wide groove, open at its top, intended to accommodate the carrying handles of the different bags.
• this bag-carrying handle is presented as a solid monobloc cylindrical body, the two ends of which are of rounded or oval shape. According to a characteristic arrangement of the invention, equidistant from these two ends, a groove passes perpendicularly through the cylindrical body.
• the groove In a functional position, or normal use position, the groove opens onto the upper part of the cylindrical body through a slot.
• This slot can be oblique according to an exemplary embodiment proposed. It serves as a passage for the carrying handles of the bags which will be placed on the flat surface forming the base of the groove. This base is parallel to the lower generatrix of the cylindrical body. The handles of the bags are therefore gathered in the middle of the handle in the groove, large enough so that the bags can be freely arranged according to their volume and content.
• the grip of the handle during use will be done as with a traditional corkscrew: the middle finger and the ring finger being placed on either side of the handles of the bags gathered in the middle of the handle.
• the hand is not tight, it breathes, the weight is harmoniously distributed on all the fingers and the entirely cylindrical aspect of the body of the handle allows a grip at the same time safe, firm and very comfortable.
• the carrying handle according to the invention therefore offers significant advantages: Minimal bulk: the bag holder handle is barely more bulky than a lipstick case.
• the grip mode of the handle, the load distribution, the concept of the solid monobloc cylindrical body ensures the carrying handle to be almost unbreakable.
• the slit and the adapted shape of the appendages forming the upper corner of the groove prevents the carrying handles from coming out unexpectedly when the bags are placed on the ground.
• the handle according to the invention can be executed either in wood or in rigid plastic to guarantee a low cost price.
• FIG. 1 is a front view of the carrying device according to the invention.
• FIG. 1 is a top view of the same device.
• FIG. 3 is a front view of the invention according to another embodiment
• FIG. 4 is a front view showing an example of use of the carrying device according to the invention, on which are placed bags provided with handles.
• This carrying device or handle comprises, in a manner known per se, an ⁇ gide 1 cylindrical body constituting the handle proper, the ends 2 of which, symmetrically shaped, are of rounded or oval shape.
• this cylindrical body 1 is crossed, perpendicularly and equidistant from the two ends 2, of a groove 3, the base of which 7 is a rectangular surface parallel to the lower generatrix of the cylindrical body 1.
• This groove 3 is also delimited by the underside of each of the two appendages 4 and 5 of the cylindrical body 1.
• this groove 3 is intended to contain the handles of the bags as illustrated in FIG. 4.
• the slot 6 is the space separating the appendix 4 from the appendix 5, which allows the placement and release of the handles of the plastic bags.
• the tip of appendix 5 is cut in a bevel so that the face 5a thus bevelled is parallel to the underside of appendix 4.
• the obliquity of the slot 6 has the advantage of preventing the carrying handles of the bags from unexpectedly leaving the groove 3 when the user deposits the bags on the ground. In the case of transporting several bags, numerous tests have shown that during the laying on the ground, the different bags are deployed by creating anti-gemstal forces conducive to maintaining the handles inside the groove 3
• the two appendages 4 and 5 are symmetrical and beveled sizes. This particular arrangement has the same function of facilitating the insertion of the handles of the bags into the groove while preventing their unexpected exit.
• the carrying device is one piece and massive. As an indication, it can be executed either in beech-style compact wood, or in any suitable plastic material such as ABS-PC and polyamide type thermoplastics or thermosets such as glass filler polyester and glass filler epoxy.
• the carrying device according to the invention can have the following dimensions:
