Description

TECHNICAL FIELDThe invention relates to a bag stand, in particular for waste bags.PRIOR ARTU.S. Pat. No. 6,126,183 A shows a mobile carriage for refuse bags with a U-shaped main support, the cross bar of which forms a handle and which has an axle with two wheels at the other, lower end. On the main beam, in the region of the axle, a fold-out U-shaped auxiliary frame is arranged, which forms a platform in the fold-out state. In the upper region, a second U-shaped and fold-out subframe is arranged, which, in the folded-out state, is suitable for holding a waste bag by means of flexible and rotatable clamps. This carriage for refuse bags has been found to be less stable. A corresponding collapsible and mobile cart for garbage bags is further known from the United States patent US 3 797 847 A.DE 10 2019 103 038 A1 discloses a lid attachment for a bag stand or a waste bag stand, which has an annular foot and two supports arranged thereon, which support an attachment element, which has a through-opening and a lid arranged rotatably in the through-opening. With the aid of the attachment element, a waste bag, which typically represents a waste bag consisting of plastic film, can be fastened in the bag stand and filled through the through-opening. This bag stand has proven to be very inflexible and very limited in its handling.DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIONThe object of the invention is to provide a bag stand which is improved compared with the prior art and can be used more widely and is distinguished by special handling.The object is achieved according to the invention with a device which has the features specified in claim 1.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are the subject matter of the dependent claims.The bag stand according to the invention is provided with a seat for holding a bag, with supports which are connected at their upper end to the seat, and with wheels which are arranged at the lower ends of the supports. In this case, two supports are connected to one another in such a way that they can be pivoted with respect to one another about a common axis of rotation of a rotary bearing between an open position and a closed position and together form a pair of supports.In addition, two supports of at least one pair of supports each have at least one hole between the axis of rotation of the pivot bearing and the lower end of the supports, wherein these holes each have the same distance from the end of the supports.In addition, in the case of the bag stand according to the invention, a rod-shaped carrier is provided, which can be introduced into the two holes of a pair of supports.If a plurality of pairs of supports each having two such holes are provided for a rod-shaped support, then a rod-shaped support of this type is regularly assigned to each pair of supports of this type. These rod-shaped carriers can be introduced into the associated holes of a pair of supports if necessary or can be removed again if necessary, so that the bag stand can be easily transferred from the closed, folded state into the opened, unfolded state or vice versa. If the rod-shaped carrier is inserted into the holes of the two supports of the pair of supports in the closed state, i.e. in the folded state of the pair of supports and thus of the bag stand, the pivotability of the supports of the pair of supports is restricted or even prevented, so that the closed state is maintained.By this configuration of the bag stand according to the invention, the latter can be folded together and can thus be stored or transported more easily and in a more space-saving manner. In addition, in the state in which it is inserted into the two holes of a pair of supports, which corresponds to the closed state, the rod-shaped support enables an object to be transported to be supported on the folded, closed bag stand, which can be moved forward very easily and efficiently on account of the wheels. In order to achieve this, the object to be transported is applied to the folded-together bag stand with the at least one rod-shaped carrier and moved, for example, by pulling or pushing the bag stand according to the invention. In this way, even relatively heavy objects, such as beverage boxes or full suitcases, can be transported very easily by the bag stand, even over relatively long distances. It is thus possible to improve the handling of the bag stand and to expand the variety of possible uses.In this case, the receptacle for holding a bag, such as a garbage bag, is provided for receiving and holding an empty bag. This can be filled while it is held in the bag stand, in order to subsequently be able to remove the filled bag from the receptacle again and thereby again create the possibility of loading the bag stand with a new, empty bag and feeding the filled bag to a utilization, in particular waste utilization, independently of the bag stand. This embodiment allows simple filling of the bag in the bag stand according to the invention and also creates a possibility of transporting the filled bag, in particular waste bag, in a simple and efficient manner with the aid of the closed and folded bag stand in conjunction with the at least one additional carrier.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention in such a way that two supports of a pair of supports are connected in an X-shape via a pivot bearing arranged in the crossing region. This configuration makes it possible for the pair of supports and thus the bag stand to be folded together in a particularly efficient manner. In this case, the crossing region can be arranged at different points between the two ends of the supports and, as a result, different conditions in the open state can be defined for the upper region with the receptacle or for the lower region with the footprint on the floor depending on the position of the pivot bearing. In addition, the selected X-shape results in a particularly stable arrangement of a pair of supports and thus of the bag stand.Moreover, it has proven particularly advantageous to arrange the pivot bearing of a pair of supports of the bag stand according to the invention in the central region of the supports of the pair of supports. The central arrangement in particular provides a particular degree of stability and good handling, since this allows a particularly good compromise to be achieved between a large and stable footprint and at the same time a large receptacle with a large opening for filling the introduced bag, in particular a waste bag.It has proven particularly useful to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that at least one, in particular all, of the supports have a profile structure, in particular a U-profile, a rectangular profile, a Y-profile or a double-T-profile. This type of support ensures a particularly stable structure for the bag stand with a relatively low weight. This type of support also proves to be very widespread and thus very cost-effective and particularly suitable in terms of handling. It has proven particularly advantageous to use profiles or double-T profiles, since these are characterized by two spaced-apart profile surfaces which together, by providing corresponding holes for a carrier, make possible a particularly stable supporting structure for transport with the aid of the folded-together, closed bag stand.In addition, it has also proved to be useful to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that at least one, in particular all, of the supports has a hollow profile or a filled profile. The use of a hollow profile, whether as a round or oval hollow bar or as a bar with a rectangular hollow profile, in particular, forms a particularly advantageous compromise between stability and weight, which particularly facilitates the handling of the bag stand even under difficult conditions. The use of supports with a solid and thus filled profile makes it possible to create a particularly robust and load-bearing bag stand which, according to the invention, can also be used as a bag cart.A bag stand has been shown as a particularly preferred development of the bag stand according to the invention, in which one or more transverse struts are provided, which each rigidly connect two supports, in particular of different pairs of supports, to one another. By providing transverse braces, it is possible to create a very stable structure of the pairs of supports, which is distinguished in particular by a closed frame structure and is thereby particularly stiff and dimensionally stable even under heavy load. It has preferably proved to be useful to provide a cross member in the end region of the pairs of supports, in particular at the end of a support, and thereby in particular to create a rectangular frame structure without protrusions.Furthermore, a preferred development of the bag stand according to the invention has proven successful, in which at least one rod-shaped carrier fills two holes of a pair of supports completely or almost completely. By this corresponding design of the rod-shaped support with the associated holes, it is possible to achieve a particular stability of the arrangement of the support in the holes with the pair of supports. This is achieved in particular when the hole or holes have a substantial length or more than two holes are provided, which are all formed in alignment with one another in the closed state of the pair of supports, and at the same time the rod-shaped carrier fills the holes completely or almost completely. As a result, a movement of the support in the holes can be largely or completely prevented and as a result a pronounced stability of the bag stand can be achieved with at least one support, in particular a plurality of rod-shaped supports. Higher loads can thus also be transported.According to a preferred development of the bag stand according to the invention, at least one rod-shaped carrier fills two holes of a pair of supports in a form-fitting manner. It is precisely when the rod-shaped carrier is not rotationally symmetrical, but rather the cross section of the rod-shaped carrier has one or more, that is to say few preferred directions, such as a cross section in the form of a rectangle or an oval or a 5-cornered star, for example, that a particularly robust configuration of a bag stand for transport in the manner of a bag cart is achieved.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention in such a way that holes in the supports of a pair of supports are arranged in such a way that the holes are formed aligned with one another in the closed state of the pair of supports. This makes it possible, when the rod-shaped support is introduced into these holes, to make it difficult or even prevent the pair of supports from opening by increasing the angle of the pivot bearing, since each hole has a certain material thickness and thus a certain length or depth, which acts against opening and makes it difficult. By providing greater material thicknesses and thus greater lengths of the holes or by an increased number of the holes aligned with one another in the closed state, it is possible to improve this effect still further and thereby facilitate handling and make it more secure.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that at least one support of a support pair has at least two holes in spaced walls of the support. This is made possible, for example, by the use of a support with a U-profile or double-T-beam profile or a rectangular hollow profile. This configuration of a support makes it possible to increase the number of aligned holes and thereby make the use of the bag stand more secure.Furthermore, it has proven to be particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand such that the distance between a hole in a support and the end of the support is selected to be greater than the diameter of a wheel on this support, in particular twice as great as the diameter of the wheel. This makes it possible to reliably enable the wheels to roll off and thus use the bag stand in the manner of a bag cart even in the tilted state, without the object to be transported, which is held at a distance from the wheels by the rod-shaped carrier or carriers, hindering the wheels to roll off. This ensures reliable and efficient handling of the bag stand.It has proven particularly useful in this case that the wheels of the bag stand according to the invention are designed as gas-filled wheels which are formed substantially from plastic, in particular from a thermosetting plastic. This makes it possible, on the one hand, to make possible very light wheels and thus a very light bag stand without the rolling properties of the wheels suffering. In addition, the use of gas-filled wheels made of plastic, in particular made of a thermosetting plastic, makes it possible to create a very robust bag stand even for higher loads. In this case, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester or polypropylene or also polyamide in particular have proven particularly suitable as plastics or thermosetting plastics.According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the bag stand according to the invention, at least one wheel has a width which is more than 50% of the radius of the wheel. These dimensional relationships make it possible to create very robust wheels which, for a given size, are distinguished by a relatively large contact surface on the ground and thereby prevent or at least reduce sinking into the ground, in particular in the case of soft ground, which significantly improves the handling of the bag stand.A preferred development of the bag stand according to the invention shows two wheels which are arranged on a common axle. This common axle wheel structure is particularly stable and permits a simple construction, since not every wheel individually has to be provided with its own suspension, but only the axle as such with the wheels arranged thereon requires a suspension on the supports.In addition, it has proven to be particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that the common axis is arranged in the region of a transverse strut and along the latter, and wherein the transverse struts are arranged at the lower ends of two supports. By this arrangement, the axle with the wheels and the cross braces benefit from their respective stabilizing effect and thus lead to a mutual stabilizing effect. This is achieved in particular when the axis runs within a cross member, in particular in the cavity of a cross member with a hollow structure.Furthermore, it has proven to be particularly advantageous to design the bag stand according to the invention such that the bag stand has a cover which is suitable for closing or releasing the receptacle with its opening and which is in this case designed in particular as a cover which can be pivoted with respect to the receptacle. This additional cover makes it possible to improve the handling of the bag stand, for example by holding the waste in a bag with an upper opening closed by the cover and thus, for example, odors of the waste cannot escape to the outside. The cover is pivotable in such a way that it can close or release the receptacle with its opening for the bag to be introduced or that, in the closed state of the pairs of supports, it can be pivoted in such a way that it rests on at least one support and can thereby form a support surface for an object to be transported which rests on at least one rod-shaped carrier introduced into the holes and at least one support. This leads to a larger and a defined support surface, which improves the transport safety and thereby the handling.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that the cover and / or the receptacle are designed as an advertising surface. This makes it possible to use the bag stand to provide messages, for example, with instructions for handling, in particular for separating garbage, instructions for designating the bag cart, logos or general advertising instructions, and thereby to provide the bag stand with a further functionality.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that a handle is provided which is suitable for moving the bag stand in the closed state rolling on the wheels and pulling on the handle, wherein the handle is arranged in particular on the cover, on the upper end of one or more supports or on the receptacle. This makes it possible to improve the handling of the bag stand and improve the safety for transport in order to prevent incorrect or unfavourable handling.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention in such a way that a securing means is provided which prevents an undesired opening of a pair of supports in the closed state. Such a securing means can be provided, for example, by a latch or hook or a locking clip encircling the pair of supports. Such a securing means prevents the undesired opening and ensures that both supports of a pair of supports are always held together in the closed state and thus typically in the state running parallel to one another and can thus carry together and thus very efficiently the load of an object to be transported with the aid of the rod-shaped carrier or carriers and the rod pair or pairs in the closed state. Handling is thereby facilitated and safety for transport is increased.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that at least one carrier is provided with a fixing element for fixing the carrier introduced into one or more holes. This fixing prevents the rod-shaped carrier or the rod-shaped carriers from unintentionally sliding out of the holes and thus provides a particular level of transport safety.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that the carrier with the fixing element has an external thread which is suitable for interacting with an internal thread in at least one of the holes assigned to the carrier. This threaded arrangement makes it possible for the rod-shaped carrier to be screwed with its external thread into the internal thread of the corresponding hole or holes and to be fixed thereby. In this case, the fixation is further reinforced if the external thread of the rod-shaped carrier protrudes beyond the at least two holes of the supports and a nut is applied to this thread, which nut serves as a counter nut and thereby further increases the fixation effect. If necessary, the counteraction can be eliminated by loosening this nut and the rod-shaped carrier can be unscrewed from the holes with the internal thread by rotating about the longitudinal axis and the rod-shaped carrier can thereby be separated from the remaining bag stand.It has proven particularly useful to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that at least one fixing element is designed as a nut, as a stop, as a latching element or as a clamping element. Depending on the size and the positioning of the holes on or in the supports of the support pairs, the respectively matching fixing element is selected, wherein a nut in a threaded arrangement between the support and supports or stops, for example by pins or splints, which can be introduced into transverse bores of the support and are suitable for enclosing the supports of the support pairs in the closed state, have proven to be particularly suitable and in particular particularly robust. The same applies to the design of the carrier or the supports with a latching element, which creates a latching connection and thus a connection that is releasable against resistance, or with a clamping element, which releasably fixes the position of the carrier in the supports in a clamping manner.It has proven particularly advantageous to further develop the bag stand according to the invention such that at least one support is provided with a support receptacle which is suitable for receiving one or more rod-shaped supports and thus making it available to a user when the user requires the rod-shaped support for insertion into the corresponding holes of the supports in the closed state of the pair of supports. This makes it possible to make the handling of the bag stand particularly user-friendly and simple and also secure.The invention is explained below by way of example with reference to preferred exemplary embodiments with reference to the figures. The invention is not limited to these preferred embodiments. FIG. 1 shows a schematic illustration in a side view of an exemplary bag stand in the open state with separate carriers, FIG. 2 shows a schematic illustration in a front view of an exemplary bag stand corresponding to FIG. 1 in the open state with separate carriers, FIG. 3 shows a schematic illustration in a side view of an exemplary bag stand corresponding to FIG. 1 in the closed state with inserted carriers, FIG. 4 ashows a schematic representation of a section of a vertical section through a pair of supports 2 aof an exemplary bag stand 1 according to FIG. 3 in the closed state with the carrier 10 introduced; and FIG. 4 bshows a schematic illustration of a section of a horizontal section through two pairs of supports 2 aof an exemplary bag stand 1 corresponding to FIG. 3 in the closed state with inserted carriers 10.FIG. 1 schematically shows a bag stand 1 in a schematic illustration in a side view in the open state with separate supports 10. The bag stand 1 is designed to receive a bag, in particular a garbage bag, by containing a receptacle 3 for holding the bag. The receptacle 3 is formed, for example, by the upper ends or by receiving elements arranged thereon for a bag, in particular a garbage bag. In addition, the bag stand shows supports 2 which are connected at their upper end to the receptacle 3. In addition, it shows wheels 5, which are arranged at the lower end of two supports 2, and a cover 6, which is arranged laterally at the upper end of two supports 2 and is rotatably mounted there in such a way that the receptacle 3 is closed or released with its opening depending on the state of pivoting of the cover 6. The bag held by the receptacle 3 can thus either be filled or protected from filling.Two supports 2 are connected to one another to form a pair of supports 2 aand are pivotable relative to one another about a common axis of rotation of a pivot bearing 4 between an open position, an open state, and a closed position, a closed state. In the open state or open position, the bag stand 1 is used with the lower ends of the supports 2 standing on the ground to receive a bag and to keep it ready for filling. In the closed state, the bag stand 1 is primarily used to be stored or to be used for transporting the empty bag stand.Two supports 2 of a pair of supports 2a between the axis of rotation and the lower end of the supports 2 each have at least one hole 9. These holes 9 in the pair of supports 2a each have the same distance from the end of the supports 2 and are provided for a rod-shaped support 10 to be inserted into the two holes 9. If a plurality of pairs of supports 2a are present, then a plurality of rod-shaped supports 10 and corresponding holes 9 are typically also present in the supports 2.This at least one rod-shaped carrier 10 interacts with the supports 2 in such a way that, in the closed state, the bag stand 1 can be used to store an object in the space formed and defined by the at least one carrier 10 and the supports 2 and to transport it with the aid of the bag stand 1. In this case, the transport is facilitated to a particular extent precisely by the wheels 5 at the lower end of the supports 2.The supports 2 of a pair of supports 2a are connected to one another in an X-shaped manner via a rotary joint 4 arranged in the crossing region 12. The swivel joint 4 is arranged centrally between the ends of the supports 2 of a pair of supports 2 aand thus in their central region 12, which in the open state allows a large footprint as well as a large opening of the receptacle 3, which is very advantageous for handling the bag stand 1. With the aid of the swivel joint 4, the opening angle between the X-shaped connected supports 2 can be changed. Typically, the opening angle in the open state is in the range of 45°, while in the closed state it is selected in the range of approximately 10°. Accordingly, the bag stand 1 in the closed state, due to its reduced volume, can be easily transported in particular in conjunction with the wheels 5 and can be stored very efficiently until the next use as a stand for a bag, which particularly facilitates the handling of the bag stand 1 overall.As shown in FIG. 1, the rod-shaped supports 10 are not inserted into the holes 9 in the open state of the bag stand 1. They are either positioned separately as shown or positioned in a carrier receptacle, not shown here, which preferably extends along a support and is suitable for holding one or more rod-shaped carriers 10 and are thus available when required in the closed state of the bag stand 1.FIG. 2 shows a schematic front view of an exemplary bag stand 1 corresponding to FIG. 1 in the open state with separate carriers 10.The bag stand 1 shows on the right and left a pair of supports 2a each consisting of two supports 2 which are each pivotably connected to one another via a pivot bearing 4.The bag stand 1 is provided with four cross braces 8 which each rigidly connect two supports 2 of different pairs of supports 2 ato one another in that they each rigidly connect the lower ends and the upper ends of the supports 2 to one another and thereby define a rectangular frame structure which has proven to be particularly rigid. Thus, two such rectangular frame structures are produced, which are pivotably connected via the associated pivot bearings 4 and which can be transferred between an open state and a closed state.Both the supports 2 and the cross braces 8 are provided with a profile structure which here represents a U-profile with a rear wall 2 band two side walls 2 c. This U-profile makes it possible to create particularly stiff and load-bearing cross struts 8 or supports 2, which are also characterized by a relatively low weight.The supports 2 without wheels 5 are connected at their upper end to a handle 7. This handle, which is circular in cross section, extends from one support 2 to the other support 2 of the other pair of supports 2 aand connects two pairs of supports 2 ato one another corresponding to a cross strut 8. The handle 7 extends laterally beyond the upper ends of the supports 2 of the two pairs of supports 2a. By additionally extending the upper half of the supports 2 with the handle 7 relative to the upper half of the supports 2 without the handle or with the wheels 5, it is possible to configure the handling of the handle 7 particularly ergonomically precisely in the closed state, since the handle 7 is located further away from the axis of rotation of the pivot bearings 4 than the cross member 8 in the upper end region.The wheels 5 are connected via a metal rod forming a common axle 5a. The axle 5a is held and guided by two holes in the rear wall 2b of the lower ends of two supports 2 of different pairs of supports 2a. The axle 5a extends between the supports 2 in the interior of the cross strut 8, which encloses the axle 5a in a U-shape and which protects the axle from soiling or damage. This creates a very efficient mounting of the wheels 5, which is very robust, very resistant and low-weight, which benefits the handling of the bag stand 1.The wheels 5 are designed as gas-filled wheels 5, which are formed from a thermosetting plastic, in particular from polyamide, and are therefore very robust and very light. The width of the wheels 5 is preferably selected such that the width is more than 50% of the radius of the wheel 5, which benefits the handling of the bag stand 1 during rolling transport, in particular in the case of soft or moist subsoil.In the lower end region of the supports 2 of the support pairs 2a, holes 9 are arranged which, in the closed state, are aligned with one another and are suitable for completely filling or receiving a rod-shaped carrier 10 and thereby securely holding it. Tilting of the carriers 10 in the holes 9 is thus largely ruled out. This is achieved in that the rod-shaped supports 10 have a circular cross section which has the same diameter as the circular holes 9 in the supports 2.FIG. 3 schematically shows a side view of an exemplary bag stand 1 corresponding to FIG. 1 in the closed state with carriers 10 introduced.With the aid of the swivel joint 4, the opening angle of the supports 2 of a pair of supports 2a in the closed state is selected in the range of approximately 10°. At the upper end of a support 2, the handle 7 is arranged, which projects beyond the upper end of the other support 2 of the pair of supports 2a. At the upper end of the other support 2, the cover 6 is rotatably supported and arranged. As shown in FIG. 3, it is folded back and covers or no longer closes the opening of the receptacle 3 at the upper ends of the supports 2. instead the cover 6 rests flat against the upper half of the supports 2 of the support pairs 2 a, that is to say above the pivot bearing 4. The cover 6 thereby forms an additional contact surface and support surface for an object to be transported, which can abut on the one hand on the supports 2 with the cover 6 and on the rod-shaped supports 10 introduced in the holes 9. With the aid of the handle 7 and the wheels 5, the bag stand 1 can be transported very easily in a rolling manner by pulling with an object to be transported.In this case, the cover 6 can be used as an advertising surface in the state as shown in FIG. 3 or in FIG. 1, which, due to the different pivot conditions, makes it possible to apply differentiated advertising on both sides of the cover 6 and thereby to convey differentiated advertising on the one hand in the function of the holder for a waste bag and on the other hand in the function of a transport means for an object.The holes 9 are arranged in the lower end region above the wheels 5 in the supports 2 of a pair of supports 2 aand, as shown in FIG. 3, receive the rod-shaped supports 10. The rod-shaped supports 10 extend through the two supports 2, which are in the closed state of the pair of supports 2 a, with their holes 9 and are fixed by means of two pins 11 on both sides of the pair of supports 2 a. The two pins 11 form a fixing element in that they form a stop for the supports 2 of the pair of supports 2 aand thereby prevent undesired opening and thus a transition into the open state of the bag stand 1. As a result, the handling of the bag stand 1 as a transport aid for articles, in particular heavy articles, in particular for rolling pulling, can be designed to be particularly reliable and reliable. Such objects to be transported can be, for example, drinks boxes, full luggage cases or also felt garbage bags.FIG. 4 ashows schematically a section of a vertical section along the supports 2 through a pair of supports 2 aof an exemplary bag stand 1 corresponding to FIG. 1 in the closed state with inserted carriers 10.The two supports 2 of the pair of supports 2a show a U-profile with a rear wall 2b and two side walls 2c. The side walls 2 cof the pair of supports 2 a show a total of four holes 9, which in the closed state are aligned with one another and are suitable for being completely filled by the rod-shaped carrier 10 and thereby securely holding the carrier 10. Tilting of the carrier 10 introduced into the four holes 9 in the holes 9 is thus largely ruled out. Also, the four aligned holes 9 filled by the bracket 10 act as a sort of fuse which prevents the opening angle of the pair of supports 2a from being changed. In particular, this also prevents the pair of supports 2a from being moved into the open state, since this would entail bringing the four aligned holes 9 filled by the carrier 10 out of alignment.This U-profile makes it possible to create particularly stiff and load-bearing cross struts 8 or supports 2, which are also characterized by a relatively low weight.The rod-shaped beams 10 are fixed by means of two pins 11 on both sides of the pair of supports 2a. The two pins 11 form a fixing element in that they form a stop for the supports 2 of the pair of supports 2 aand thereby prevent undesired opening and thus a transition into the open state of the bag stand 1. As a result, the handling of the bag stand 1 as a transport aid for articles, in particular for heavy articles, in particular for rolling pulling, can be designed to be particularly reliable and reliable.FIG. 4 bschematically illustrates a section of a horizontal section along the rod-shaped beams 10 through two pairs of supports 2 aof an exemplary bag stand 1 according to FIG. 1 in the closed state with inserted beams 10.The two supports 2 of the two pairs of supports 2a each have a U-profile with a rear wall 2b and two side walls 2c. The side walls 2 cof the pair of supports 2 a show a total of four holes 9, which in the closed state are aligned with one another and are suitable for being completely filled by the rod-shaped carrier 10 and thereby securely holding the carrier 10. Tilting of the carrier 10 introduced into the four holes 9 in the holes 9 is thus largely ruled out. Also, the four aligned holes 9 filled by the bracket 10 act as a sort of fuse which prevents the opening angle of the pair of supports 2a from being changed.The rod-shaped beams 10 are fixed by means of two pins 11 on both sides of the pair of supports 2a. The two pins 11 form a fixing element in that they form a stop for the supports 2 of the pair of supports 2 aand thereby prevent undesired opening and thus a transition into the open state of the bag stand 1.As a result, the handling of the bag stand 1 as a transport aid for articles, in particular for heavy articles, in particular for rolling pulling, can be designed to be particularly reliable and reliable.List of reference characters1 Sack stand 2 Support 2a Pair of supports 2b Rear wall of a support 2c Side wall of a support 3 Receptacle 4 Pivot bearing 5 Wheel 5a Axle for the wheels 6 Cover 7 Handle 8 Cross strut 9 Hole for the rod-shaped support 10 Rod-shaped support 11 Stop, pin 12 Crossing region of a pair of supports 12a Central region of a support of a pair of supports
