ABSTRACT:
A hand grip device that is easily attached to and removed from the carrying handle of an article such as a plastic merchandise bag, bucket, pail or the like, to provide a relatively wide support surface for improved comfort to the hand of the user, and to prevent separation of the carrying handles of a plastic merchandise bag when the bag is set down. The device comprises a flexible, normally flat body that is easily stored and carried when not in use, and which may be folded about the carrying handle of an article and adjusted along the handle for proper balance. The hand grip device has a longitudinal slit formed in each end, terminating at an enlarged opening for receiving and retaining the carrying handle, and a plurality of flexible fingers or teeth are formed along the slit to facilitate application of the device to a handle, and to securely grip the handle when the device is released, as when the article is set down. In one form of the invention, the slits extend along a zig-zag path, defining a saw tooth configuration which defines the flexible fingers or teeth. In another form of the invention, the slits extend along a straight line and a plurality of transversely extending slits intersect the longitudinal slit to form the flexible fingers or teeth.
