Abstract

The bulk transport bag has an opening at the top and closed at the bottom. It has four sides which are reinforced with a rigid stiffening in the shape of a crisscross. Along the two longest sides at the top of the bag, there are sleeves which have many rows of stitching attaching them to the sides of the bag. These sleeves enable the easy access of forklift tynes to slide through and pickup the bag. The bulk transport bag also has two sleeves which are attached to the bottom of the bag. These sleeves have many rows of stitching to keep the sleeves secure. These bottom sleeves protrude from the edge of both ends of the bag. The bottom sleeves are also attached to the side of the bag with one row of stitching. The bulk trans ort ba eliminates the need or use of allets.

Description

BULK TRANSPORT BAG WITH FORKLIFT SLEEVES
For many years goods have been stacked, lifted and stored on pallets for ease of mobility.
Pallets are an environmental menace as well as being costly, hard to obtain and even harder to dispose of.
Unfortunately transporting goods without a pallet was almost an impossibility especially when the goods were very heavy and not stable.
I have designed a bag which enables this process of transporting and storing goods in a stable bag no longer requiring a pallet.
This bag will hold weights of up to 3 tonne. It remains self standing, stable and stationery when filled and can be transported by both the top and bottom sleeves.
The two sleeves enable a forklift to carry the bag
1. When filled from the top, the bag can be lifted by the top sleeves and transported to an area required and then if necessary can lift and stack the bag into shelving by the bottom sleeve if obstructed by the top of the forklift.
2. When the forklift uses the bottom sleeve it also enables the bags to be double stacked into containers for exporting if there is a problem with the top of the forklift hitting the top of the container.
These bags are made from coated or uncoated heavy duty polypropylene or any other suitable material.
If required the bags can be made pores, which enables any liquid to be disgarded.
We have included in rigid stiffening in a criss-cross effect on all four sides. This helps to stop the bag from bulging.
The bags have a rigid stiffening piece along both of the top sleeves. Specifications for the
SM Transporter Bag
(Page 2)
The bags are reusable can be made in many colours and can have branding or coding if required.
We have adjusted the size to enable all forklifts to be used without adjusted even after the slight bulging of the bags which will occur.
The new size 70cm x 105cm x 130cm (as per diagram)
The bottom sleeve is open a further 10cm under the bag to ensure if extra bulging occurs the forklift can still slide underneath and lift the bag. When doing this the middle of the bag dips down in between the fork tynes adding an extra support and stability for the bags
No stiffening is required in bottom sleeve as an extra row of stitching along the side of the bag helps to keep the sleeve slightly open making easier access for the forklift.
This product is a very cost effective form of storage and transportation of many different types of goods.
