Abstract
In a rack particularly intended for suspending refuse disposal bags and having a circumferentially discontinuous carrier of variable size designed to retaining and stretching the top or mouth portion of the bag, said carrier comprises opposite, scissorslike holders (18,19 and 20,21) capable of distending the bag mouth both in an open position, substantially in rhomboid shape, and in a closed, assembled or collapsed position, thereby saving a cover for covering the bag between the fillings. The holders are preferably mounted in a pair of brackets (2,3) having an adjustable spacing so that the rack may be used for bags and sacks of considerably varying mouth sizes.
Claims6
A suspension rack for bags and sacks, comprising:
- a base member secured to a support structure,
- a pair of brackets projecting from said base member, and
- a discontinuous frame-like collapsible bag carrier mounted on said brackets and adapted to engage and circumferentially stretch an everted portion of a bag at the open end thereof,
- said bag carrier including a pair of holders, each said holder mounted in a respective bracket, and formed by a pair of frame limbs which are movable between a closed parallel position and an open V-like position, the vertices of the holders pointing away from each other,
- at least one of said holders being displaceable in its bracket substantially parallel to said base member and being resiliently biased in a direction away from the other holder to permanently keep said everted bag portion circumferentially stretched.
