A sack-like container, particularly intended for pourable goods, comprises a hose-like casing (10) of flexible material and a rope (15) which has one end thereof joined to a first end-part of the casing, said first end-part being gathered to form a bottom (12) of the container, and extends from the bottom through the container space (14) and slideable out through a second end-part (17) of the casing, said second end-part being gathered to form an upper part (11) of the container. The other end of the rope (15) is bound around the second end-part of the casing and a portion of the rope surrounded by the second end-part. Between the binding location and the location (16) at which the rope exits from the second end-part (17) of the casing, the rope forms a U-shaped lifting loop (19), intended for receiving a lifting hook or like device for lifting the container together with its contents. The aforementioned other end of the rope (15) forms a self-tightening knot (18) so arranged as to permanently lock the aforesaid rope portion against sliding relative to the surrounding end-part (17) of the casing when the lifting loop (19), with the container filled with the intended load and suspended from the loop, is subjected to a load which substantially exceeds, preferably by 1 - 2.5 times, the load exerted on the lifting loop (19) by the suspended, filled container in a static condition. |
