Abstract
This invention relates to a method for attaching a flexible cord handle on a bag comprising the steps of: forming a pair of apertures through a bag wall, providing at least one substantially planar obstruction member with at least one cord receiving passageway therethrough, passing at least one free end of a flexible cord through one of said apertures and into a respective cord receiving passageway of the obstruction member, and fixing the free end of the cord to the obstruction member by deforming at least a portion of the obstruction member surrounding the cord, and further wherein the greatest dimension of the obstruction member is larger than the aperture in the bag wall.
Claims8
A bag having a bag wall defining an aperture, said bag comprising:
- an obstruction member unconnected to the bag, said obstruction member having a cord receiving passageway therethrough wherein the obstruction member is positioned adjacent the aperture in the bag wall;
- a length of cord wherein a free end of the cord is passed through the aperture and axially of the aperture through the cord receiving passageway of the obstruction member such that the cord passes directly from the aperture to the cord receiving passageway and completely through the obstruction member, the free end of the cord is fixed to the obstruction member by deforming at least a portion of the cord receiving passageway surrounding the cord such that the deformed cord receiving passageway alone fixedly retains the cord to the obstruction member, and wherein, when the obstruction member is fixed to the cord, the greatest dimension of the obstruction member is larger than the aperture in the bag wall.
