Rack for suspending and sealing bags

Abstract

It is often inconvenient to store bags of spices, potato chips, etc., particularly once the bags have been opened. Accordingly, there is disclosed herein a rack for suspending and sealing bags. The rack includes a plurality of horizontal clamps adapted to suspend and to seal bags, and support means adapted to support the clamps above a ground surface. One embodiment of the invention includes a plurality of radially oriented horizontal clamps adapted to suspend and to seal bags, each of the clamps having both a generally uniform cross-section with a discontinuity adapted to receive a bag, and a first end which is angled downwardly and inwardly. The rack also includes a support means adapted rotatably to support the clamps above a ground surface, and further adapted to be suspended from a generally horizontal surface, such as the underside of a shelf.
