ABSTRACT:
A self-raising strap loop is described, for use with a flexible, stackable container. The strap loop includes a strap which is flexible, and resilient means associated with the strap so that when the container is subjected to stacking forces the strap loop will lie substantially flat on the container, but when the stacking forces are removed, the loop will be forced to assume an upstanding position ready to receive a lifting device such as a fork of a fork-lift truck. The resilient means may be a resilient plastics or metallic insert enveloped by the strap, either in the form of a flat strip or a plurality of wires. The resilient means may also take the form of plastics or metallic wires woven into or being the warp threads of a woven strap. The resilient means may also be an impregnating material within a woven strap to render it semi-rigid. By using the self-raising strap loop it becomes unnecessary to pre-orient a lifting strap prior to engagement with a suitable lifting device.
