ABSTRACT:
A releasable catch for holding together they body of a bag and a flap of the bag includes a plug member attached to the flap and having a resiliently deformable locking tongue, and a socket member attached at its one end to the bag body and having a gate-shaped locked portion disposed adjacent the one end of the socket member for slidably receiving and thereafter locking the resiliently deformable locking tongue to couple the plug member and the socket member. The locking tongue is tilted toward a backward side of the plug member at a predetermined angle relative to a plane of an attachment portion. When the locking tongue of the plug member is locked into the socket member, the bent plug member tends to turn the socket member about the fixed one end toward the bag body, so that the other or loose end of the socket member is always held in contact with a front surface of the bag body regardless of the content of the bag. The releasable catch thus constructed is sightly in appearance, can be manipulated reliably with utmost ease, and damages neither itself nor another article upon impingement with the latter.
