Carrier for sacks with strap

Abstract

A device has a cylindrical handle with two opposed ends and lifts loaded sacks and other equipment with narrow handholds. Upon both ends, the device has a slot about its circumference. Each slot receives an end of a strap fitted over the handle and into the slot. The strap then suspends below the handle, passes through the handholds of sacks, secures back to the handle, and allows many sacks to be carried. Alternatively, two straps are provided, one upon each end for carrying sacks separately.

1 . A device for carrying sacks and other containers by a user, the sacks and other having a narrow handhold, comprising:
 a handle, cylindrical and elongated, having two opposed ends and a circumference; and,   at least one elongated strap securing proximate to each of said ends, said at least one strap adapting to pass through the handholds of the sacks and other containers.   
   
   
       2 . The sack carrying device of  claim 1  further comprising:
 each of said ends having a slot therein receiving said at least one strap.   
   
   
       3 . The sack carrying device of  claim 2  further comprising:
 each of said slots locating inwardly from said end and extending around the circumference of said handle wherein said slot defines an inner diameter of said handle.   
   
   
       4 . The sack carrying device of  claim 1  further comprising:
 said handle having a plurality of spaced apart ridges, generally perpendicular to the length of said handle, and locating inwardly from said ends.   
   
   
       5 . The sack carrying device of  claim 2  further comprising:
 said at least one strap being flexible and elongated, having two opposite ends, each of said ends connecting to each of said slots.   
   
   
       6 . The sack carrying device of  claim 5  further comprising:
 each of said ends of said strap having an aperture therethrough, said aperture having a width approximately that of the inner diameter of said handle.   
   
   
       7 . The sack carrying device of  claim 6  wherein said aperture has a rounded end and an opposite pointed end. 
   
   
       8 . The sack carrying device of  claim 7  wherein said aperture is elongated thus aiding a user to emplace said aperture upon an end of said handle into said slot. 
   
   
       9 . The sack carrying device of  claim 1  wherein said handle is wood and has a length proportional to that of the palm of a user. 
   
   
       10 . The sack carrying device of  claim 1  wherein said at least one strap is leather. 
   
   
       11 . The sack carrying device of  claim 3  further comprising:
 two of said straps, each strap locating upon one of said ends of said handle;   each of said straps having two opposite ends, each of said ends having an aperture therethrough, each of said apertures being elongated and having a width approximately that of the inner diameter of said handle wherein said ends of one strap secure to one end of said handle and said ends of the other strap secure to the other end of said handle thus a user can carry at least two sacks separately.   
   
   
       12 . The sack carrying device of  claim 1  wherein said at least one strap is plastic and said handle is plastic. 
   
   
       13 . The sack carrying device of  claim 1  wherein said at least one strap has a length greater than the length of the handle. 
   
   
       14 . The sack carrying device of  claim 1  further comprising:
 said at least one strap having two opposite surfaces, at least one of said surfaces being smooth.
