Tab-free thermoplastic T-Shirt bag system

Abstract

A bag and system for dispensing thermoplastic bags or the like from a stack of bags. The preferred, exemplary embodiment of the present system teaches a configuration which minimizes the probability of stress fractures in the dispensed bag, and tearing associated therewith, while providing a system which leaves no “throw away” product on the rack after dispensing a bag stack, as the present system has no central tear-off tab, thereby providing a more environmentally attractive alternative to other, prior art systems. Further, the bag of the present invention also contemplates a non-removable central mouth support raised area, wherein there is provided a support cut configured to accept a rack central support piece, the cut configured to provide maximum ease in separation of the dispensed bag from the pack, with clean separation of the area above the support cut of the pack, thereby preventing tearing of the bag upon dispensing. Situated in spaced relationship above the medial portion of support cut is a dispense cut formed between the upper edge of the raised area formed in the bag mouth area of the bag, the dispense cut configured to facilitate removal of the bag from a bag rack support piece, dispensing an individual bag from a pack of bags, while not affecting the support strength of the support cut in its operation of retaining the stack of bags upon the bag rack.
