Bag Handle Attachment Structure for Load Distribution
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing handle attachment structure for bags causes the bag body and upper gore portion to stretch and the sewing thread to break over time due to rubbing, leading to reduced durability.
Innovation Solution
A hand-carrying portion structure featuring an outer side hand-carrying member and an inner side hand-carrying member with equal intervals between their attachment points, forming a non-joining region to distribute load and prevent direct sewing, which includes a sandwiching portion for added stability and attachment to the bag's surface.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If the handle is attached to the upper part of the body with the inner handle section sandwiched between the body and upper gore section, then the handle shows good initial durability, but the body and upper gore portion stretch and sewing thread breaks over time due to concentrated load and friction
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the handle attachment structure into two separate members: an inner handle section and an outer handle section. The inner handle section is attached at the upper part of the body, while the outer handle section is attached at the lower part of the body. This segmentation distributes the load across two separate attachment points, preventing concentrated stress on a single location and thereby improving long-term durability while maintaining initial strength.
2Device complexity
If the inner handle section is sandwiched between the body and upper gore section, then the handle structure is compact, but the attachment portion rubs against each other causing thread breakage
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces the outer handle section as an intermediary element that separates the inner handle section from the body surface. The outer handle section acts as a mediator that prevents direct contact and rubbing between the inner handle section and the body, thereby eliminating friction-induced thread breakage while maintaining a compact overall structure through the layered arrangement.
3Stability of the object's composition
If the handle attachment causes the body and upper gore portion to be drawn closer, then the handle is securely attached, but the body loses its shape
Solution Approach 1:
The patent moves the attachment point of the outer handle section from the upper part of the body to the lower part of the body. This dimensional change in attachment location allows the handle to be securely attached through the outer handle section while preventing the body and upper gore portion from being drawn closer, thereby preserving the body's shape while maintaining attachment stability.

AI summary
A structure of a hand-carrying portion provides a method for excellent durability to use a bag for years. According to the present invention, a hand-carrying portion (14) attached to a bag main body (12) includes an outer side hand-carrying member (50) and an inner side hand-carrying member (70) overlapped to an inner side of the outer side hand-carrying member in a hand-carrying region (A1); ends of the inner side hand-carrying member are attached to an outer surface of the bag main body; and the outer side hand-carrying member has one and another ends attached to an outer side of the bag main body with an appropriate interval between attachment portions (72, 74), which the inner side hand-carrying member attached to the bag main body, in an extended region extended in a bottom direction of the bag main body from a region overlapped with the inner side hand-carrying member.
