| 摘要 |
The invention provides a tape reinforced handle (10) of adequate strength using relatively short tape anchorage portions. The handle (10) has an end joined directly to a pack panel (12) in which the reinforcement tape (22) terminates, the handle end having edges formed by cuts (18, 20) running into the panel (12) and terminating in stress relieving apertures (38, 40). The cuts (18, 20) preferably diverge to form a widened handle end thereby allowing a substantial proportion of the handle loads to be transferred from the reinforcement tape (22) to the non-reinforced material of the handle end and panel (12). Pack sides (26) preferably overlie end edges of the handle formed by the divergent cuts (18, 20) to resist the wedging action which thereby arises. The pack sides (26) are fastened to the panel (12) by glue beads (30, 32, 34).
