HANDLE FOR BAG

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a handle for a bag which has sufficient strength and reduced costs, time and labor by configuring the handle for a bag by one component. SOLUTION: A holding part 1, an attaching part 2 and a handle end part 4 are integrally formed of a thermoplastic elastomer. A U-shaped gap part 5 from both end sides to the center side is formed on the inner side of the handle end part 4 to configure a tongue-like attaching part 2. The attaching part 2 is attached to the outer peripheral surface of a bag. When the holding part 1 is held in a hand and lifted, force is applied to the attaching part 2 through the handle end part 4, and the attaching part 2 is slightly deformed. In the state that the attaching part 2 is deformed, the bag is lifted. Since a gap between the holding part 1 and the outer peripheral surface of the bag is widened, it is easy to hold it with a hand. When the bag is put down and the hand is released, the deformation of the attaching part 2 is reset. During nonuse, since the holding part 1 is brought closer to the outer peripheral surface of the bag, the handle for the bag does not become obstructive. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
