Movable and arrestable apparatus for holding bags

摘要

The invention relates to a movable and arrestable apparatus for holding bags, having a pivoted lever which is mounted in the lower section of the apparatus and has a foot part for arresting the apparatus and for opening the apparatus lid or an elastically deformable supporting part which holds the upper edge of the bag. With the aid of the pedal, first the apparatus is to be arrested and then the lid or the bag-holding part is to be fully opened. To this end, provision is made for the foot part (21) of the pivoted lever (2) to be connected to a rigid extension (28), the free end of which is seated on a resiliently flexible or pivotable strip (23, 36) or the like which supports a braking and arresting bracket (24) which rests on the floor (B), the said free end sliding in the longitudinal direction of said strip (23, 36). <IMAGE>
