Description
- The present invention relates to a bag holder. More particularly, it relates to a bag holder with which trash bags used at home or event halls or plugging bags for industrially used powder or grain can be easily held in a freely attachable/detachable manner.
- There are known conventional methods for installing, for instance, a trash bag at a specified place, examples of which might be a mechanical chucking arrangement in which the trash bag is accumulated into an outer cylinder, an inner ring is fitted to an edge portion of the trash bag opening and the inner ring is chucked as to close the bag, or a floor fixing type in which the trash bag is accumulated into a trash container and is covered by a lid thereafter.
- However, in the arrangement in which the bag is mechanically chucked, the complicated arrangement of the chuck makes the attaching/detaching of the trash bag troublesome and taking out of the trash bag after use inconvenient. Further, a drawback is presented in case the size of the trash bag is small or large, since they cannot be used because their opening size do not fit.
- On the other hand, those of the floor fixing type present a drawback that they do not look attractive and need to be moved in case the floor is to be cleaned.
- The present invention has been made in view of these circumstances, and it is an object thereof to present a bag holder which enables easy operation of attaching/detaching the bags, which can be generally used, and which external appearance is attractive.

- The bag holder of the present invention will now be explained based on the accompanying drawings.
- As shown in FIGS.1 to 3, a bag holder H1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is composed of a pair of
arm members 1 at which there are respectively formed a holding means A, a pair of crossingmembers 3 consisting of a first crossing member 3 a and a second crossing member 3 b that intersect with each other being extended fromend portions 1 a of thearm members 1 and make the pair ofarm members 1 freely open/close around afulcrum portion 2, a pair ofgrounding members 4 being extended from lower ends of the pair of crossingmembers 3 as to oppose the pair ofarm members 1, and rotating members such asrollers 5 or casters attached to thegrounding members 4. - The bag holder H1 of the present embodiment is so arranged that the bag H can be suspended with its opening portion facing upward and its bottom surface being lifted from the floor by making an opening edge portion Ha of the bag H engage at the holding means A from a lower side of the pair of
arm members 1 and held thereat. The rotating members such as therollers 5 makes it easier for the space between the pair of groundingmembers 4 to expand as contents in the bag H increase so that, consequently, the space between the pair ofarm members 1 expands to increase the holding force provided by the holding means A. When the bag holder H1 is not used, the pair ofarm members 1 can be closed so that the pair of crossingmembers 3 are overlapped to assume a stick-like appearance as shown in FIG. 4, and the accumulating space for the bag holder can be made small. It should be noted that bags of polyethylene, vinyl chloride resin, hemp, paper and the like can be appropriately used as the bag H. - The holding means A might be a pair of holding
members 6 that are provided at positions on thearm members 1 being remote from each other by a specified distance. Theholding members 6 are set as to make an angle θ between thecrossing members 3 to be approximately 20 to 50° and are directed outwardly as shown in FIG. 2. Theholding members 6 are preferably composed of abase portion 7 extending from thearm members 1 and anengaging member 8 of cylindrical shape provided at an end portion of thebase portion 7, respectively, whereby the opening edge portion Ha of the bag H cuts into uneven portions formed at a bordering portions between thebase portions 7 and theengaging members 8 so that the bag H can be easily held. - It should be noted that while the shape of the engaging members is cylindrical in this embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this shape as long as uneven portions are formed between the base portions and the engaging members, and they might, for instance, be of spherical or polygonal shape. While rubber, synthetic resin or wood can be employed as a material for the engaging members, it is preferable to employ rubber, especially silicone rubber, since they exhibit large friction coefficients and their surfaces are hard to slip. In order to further improve skid-proof effects, it is preferable to adhere rubber or the like to the surface of the
engaging members 8 or to perform any skid-proof means such as scratch-brush finishing or emboss finishing. - Further, while rollers are respectively attached to the pair of grounding members in this embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this, and the roller might also be arranged, for instance, at one grounding member of the pair of grounding members. Alternatively, in case the floor is slippery, the rollers might also be omitted.
- It should be noted that the opening edge portion Ha might be torn in case the pair of
grounding members 4 is excessively expanded. For this reason, in order to prevent expansion of the pair of groundingmembers 4 to exceed a specified range for usage so as not to exceed a range of usage of the bag provided between the pair of arm members, it is preferable to attach astopper 11 having a substantially U-shaped section at apin 10 inserted into afulcrum hole 9 formed at the pair of crossingmembers 3 at thefulcrum portion 2. This stopper 11 might, for instance, be attached by a screw portion and nut of thepin 10. By attaching such astopper 11, the pair of crossingmembers 3 contact anedge portion 11 a of thestopper 11 when the contents of the bag H become heavy whereby the opening degree of thecrossing members 3 is limited to a specified opening degree, and the expansion of the pair ofgrounding members 4 can be prevented accordingly. It should be noted that the stopper might alternatively replaced by a stopping member such as a rope or chain stretched between the pair of crossing members. - Another embodiment of the present invention will now be explained. In this embodiment,
fulcrum holes fulcrum hole 9 of the pair of crossingmembers 3 as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, so that thefulcrum portion 2 at the pair of crossingmembers 3 can be varied between three positions so as to respectively correspond to a variety of sizes of the bag, e.g. a bag of standard size, a bag having a smaller opening portion than that of the standard size, and a bag having a larger opening portion than that of the standard size. When thefulcrum portion 2 is fixed at thefulcrum hole 9, a bag H of standard size can be held. In case a bag Hs is to be held, thepin 10 is removed from thecentral fulcrum hole 9 and is inserted intoupper fulcrum hole 9 a as shown in FIG. 7, and the position of thefulcrum portion 2 is changed to an upper position. With this arrangement, the distance between thefulcrum portion 2 and the pair of groundingmembers 4 is made larger and the pair of crossingmembers 3 can be sufficiently widened. Accordingly, the bag holder can be moved while holding the small bag Hs in a stable condition. In case a large bag HL is to be held, thepin 10 is removed from thecentral fulcrum hole 9 and is inserted into alower fulcrum hole 9 b as shown in FIG. 8, and the position of thefulcrum portion 2 is changed to an lower position. With this arrangement, the pair ofarm members 1 can be lifted to a high position. Accordingly, contents can be filled up to a periphery of the bottom portion of the bag HL without the bottom portion grounding on the floor surface, and the bag holder can be moved while contents are contained therein. - Next, still another embodiment of the present invention will be explained. A bag holder H2 a according to this embodiment is provided, as shown in FIG. 9, with hanging portions 1 s so that grasping portions Hssa of a small handy bag Hss as can be obtained in supermarkets or the like can be hung thereat. Shapes of such hanging portions 1 s are not particularly limited in the present invention, and they might be formed by bending a part of the arm members into a substantially U-shaped form. The bag holder H2 a according to this embodiment is suitably used, for instance, in household wherein kitchen garbage is filled into bag Hss, and in case it is full, its opening edge portion is tied to be inserted into a larger bag. As shown in FIG. 10, the bag holder H2 a according to this embodiment can be used in a double manner wherein a bag H is held by the holding
members 6 and a small bag Hss is held by the hanging portions 1 s, so that it is possible to put kitchen garbage into the small bag Hss and other trash into the larger bag H. In case the small bag Hss is full, it can be directly thrown into the larger bag H. With this arrangement, the floor will not become dirty by the kitchen garbage and the space for the trash bags can be minimized. - Another embodiment of the present invention will now be explained. In this embodiment, portions of the
arm members 1 between the pair of holdingmembers 6 are respectively arranged by anarm base member 12, an armfront end member 13 being cylindrical and telescopic with respect to thearm base member 12, and a fixing means for positioning the armfront end member 13, as shown in FIG. 11. The fixing means might, for instance, be boltedknobs 14 for fixing the armfront end members 13 by screwing into screw holes formed at the armfront end portions 13. A bag holder H3 according to this embodiment is arranged such that the space between the pair of holdingmembers 6 can be adjusted by untying theknobs 14 and moving the armfront end members 13 as to suit the size of the opening of the bag, so that it can hold from a small bag to a large bag. Further, since the opening of the bag is held in a substantially rectangular manner, plugging into the bag is made easy. While the arm front end members are arranged to be telescopic in this embodiment, the present embodiment is not limited to this, and it is also possible to arrange the arm front end member to be telescopic by forming the arm base members extending from the crossing members in a cylindrical shape and by inserting the arm front end members into the arm base members. In such a case, screw holes are formed at the arm base members so that the knobs are screwed thereat. - Next, still another embodiment of the present invention will be explained. In this embodiment, the pair of crossing members is made to be telescopic so that bags of various sizes can be held. That is, as shown in FIG. 12, the pair of crossing
members 3 of the bag holder H4 are respectively composed of acrossing base member 15, a crossinglower end member 16 being cylindrical and telescopic with respect to thecrossing base member 15, and a fixing means for positioning the crossinglower end member 16. The fixing means can, for instance, be boltedknobs 14, similarly to the preceding embodiment. It should be noted that while the crossing lower end members are cylindrical in this embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this, and the crossing base members might alternatively be arranged cylindrical so that the crossing lower end members can be inserted therein. - Another embodiment of the present invention will now be explained. In a bag holder H5 according to this embodiment, the engaging members of the holding
members 17 are made to be rotatingrolls 18 rotatable around thebase portions 7 as shown in FIG. 13. These rotating rolls 18 make it possible to rotate the bag H while it is remained in an attached condition after the bag H has been held by the holdingmembers 17 so that the position or deformation of the bag H after attaching can be corrected. Further, the rotating rolls 18 might, for instance, be manufactured of silicone rubber, similarly to the preceding embodiment, in order to increase the coefficient of friction. Alternatively, rubber might be adhered to the surface, or skid-proof treatment such as scratch-brush finishing might be performed. - Next, still another embodiment of the present invention will be explained. In a bag holder H6 according to this embodiment, the holding
members 19 are respectively arranged of abase portion 20 extending from thearm member 1 and a linear engagingportion 21 arranged to be in a substantially horizontal direction of thebase portion 20, as shown in FIG. 14. Both ends of the engagingmembers 21 are bend so as not to damage the bag. The engagingmembers 21 might, for instance, be manufactured of silicone rubber, similarly to the preceding embodiment, in order to increase the coefficient of friction. Alternatively, rubber might be adhered to the surface, or skid-proof treatment such as scratch-brush finishing might be performed. - Another embodiment of the present invention will now be explained. In the preceding embodiments, in case the pair of grounding members do not have any rotating members such as rollers, the grounding members are hard to expand when the floor is not slippery, and the bearable weight of contents of the bag that is provided by the friction of the engaging members for holding the bag is small. Therefore, in a bag holder H7 according to the present embodiment, the
end portions 1 a of thearm members 1 are supported at upper ends of thecrossing members 3 in a freely rotatable manner, and there are respectively provided alever 22 fixed at the tip of theend portion 1 aof thearm member 1 and aspring 23 that is engaged against atip 22 a of thelever 22 and an upper portion of the crossingmember 3. Outwardly directed force is applied to the engagingmembers 8 in directions shown by arrows K via thearm members 1 by thesesprings 23, whereby the holding force of the bag can be improved. It should be noted that 24 and 25 denote spring engaging holes. - Next, still another embodiment of the present invention will be explained. In a bag holder H8 according to this embodiment, when the grounding members do not have rotating members similarly to the embodiment as shown in FIG. 15, a
spring 26 is engaged between the pair of crossingmembers 3 at a lateral position P1 of thefulcrum portion 2, as shown in FIG. 16. By thisspring 26, outwardly directed force is applied to the engagingmembers 8 in directions shown by arrows K. It should be noted that 27 and 28 denote a pair of upper and lower spring engaging holes. While thespring 26 is engaged only at thecrossing members 3 at the lateral position P1 of thefulcrum portion 2, the present invention is not limited to this, and a spring might alternatively be engaged also at thecrossing members 3 at a lateral position P2 on the other side of thefulcrum portion 2. By engaging springs on both sides of the fulcrum portion, the outwardly directed force of the engaging members can be further increased. It should be noted that in case springs according to this embodiment are to be provided at bag holders as shown, for instance, in FIG. 5 and FIGS. 9 to 12, the pair of upper and lower engaging holes for engaging the springs are provided at three positions. - Next, the bag holder according to a second aspect of the present invention will be explained. As shown in FIG. 17, the supporting mechanism of the pair of crossing
members 3 of the bag holder according to this embodiment is different from those of the bag holders of the preceding embodiments. That is, a bag holder H9 is composed of a pair ofarm members 1, a pair of crossingmembers 3, an erectingmember 29 of substantially U-shaped section used for supporting afulcrum member 2 and concurrently serving as a stopper for preventing expansion of the pair of crossing members to exceed a specified range for usage, a groundingmember 30 fixedly attached at a lower end of the erectingmember 29 and a pair ofsprings 31 that are engaged to thecrossing members 3 and erectingmember 29 at both lateral positions P1, P2 of thefulcrum portion 2. It should be noted that 32 denote spring engaging holes formed at thecrossing members member 29. - The bag holder according to a third aspect of the present invention will now be explained. As shown in FIG. 18, the arrangement of the crossing
members 35 of the bag holder according to this embodiment differ from those of the bag holders of the preceding embodiments. That is, a bag holder H10 is composed of a pair ofarm members 1, two pairs of crossingmembers 35 that intersect with each other extending downward from bothend portions 1 a of the pair ofarm members 1 and enable free opening/closing of the pair ofarm members 1 around a pair offulcrum portions 34, and rotating members such asrollers 5 attached to lower ends of the two pairs of crossingmembers 35. Since crossingmembers 35 are respectively formed at bothend portions 1 a of the pair ofarm members 1 in this embodiment, the pair ofarm members 1 are supported at both sides, whereby the rigidity of thearm members 1 is improved and the bag can be held in a stable manner. - The bag holder according a fourth aspect of the present invention will now be explained. The bag holder according to this embodiment corresponds to the bag holder as shown in FIG. 17 improved as to be of desk type. That is, as shown in FIG. 19, a bag holder H11 comprises a pair of
arm members 1, a pair of crossingmembers 3, an erectingmember 36 of substantially U-shaped section used for supporting afulcrum member 2 and concurrently serving as a stopper for preventing expansion of the pair of crossing members to exceed a specified range for usage, an attachingmember 37 of substantially U-shaped section fixedly attached at a lower end of the erectingmember 36 in a horizontal direction, a pinching member that is screwed to the attachingmember 37, and a pair ofsprings 31 that are engaged to thecrossing members 3 and erectingmember 36 at both lateral positions P1, P2 of thefulcrum portion 2. The pinching member might be a rotatingmember 40 composed, for instance, of abolt 38 that is screwed into a screw hole of the attachingmember 37 and aknob pin 39 for rotating thebolt 38 in both lateral directions. In this embodiment, an openingportion 37 a of the attachingmember 37 is inserted for fixing into an edge portion of a projecting portion of a piece of furniture such as a table or of a wall. When theknob pin 39 is rotated to the right direction, thebolt 38 is raised and thebag holder 11 can be fixed to the edge portion. - As explained so far, the present invention is capable to provide bag holders of favorable convenience since bags can be attached thereto regardless of the size thereof. Alternatively, attaching/detaching of the bag can be easily performed since the bag might simply be hung against or detached from a pair of holding means. Further, since bags can be held in a suspend manner, the external appearance thereof can be made attractive and cleaning of the floor can be easily performed.
