Description

Note: Descriptions are shown in the official language in which they were submitted.


BACKGROUND
Awareness about the effects of the use of single plastic bags on the
environment has become relevant for
shoppers. The use of recycle bags is becoming popular and some grocery stores
encourage their use by
charging a fee for plastic bags. Also, a lot of technologies have been
developed to make the grocery
shopping experience time efficient for the buyers who in a lot of cases do
their own checkout through
self-checkout stations, using smart carts and scanning the products and
putting directly to the bag without
the need to see a cashier. There are multiple versions of recycle bags that
limit their use. These bags lack
of certain features that will be disclosed on this invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A rectangular bag, which could also be a heat-insulating bag, made fully of
environmentally friendly
materials not limited to non-woven and it can be use alone with two or more
members at the same time.
The bag has removable, extendable and retractable poles on top, which are
longer than the actual size of
the bag, and it allows holding the bag inside different shopping cart sizes.
The adjustable poles allow the
bag to stand while is in use on different cart sizes in different grocery
stores. The pole is made of wood
not limited to. To support the stability of the bag while is empty inside of
the cart, the bag also has two
straps stitched one by the end of the right side of the bag and one by the end
of the left side of the bag,
the top part of the straps are made not limited to Velcro which rolls into the
shopping cart structure
connecting again the bag to the shopping cart. The bag has two compartments
inside that can be used to
separate fragile items inside the bag also to hold cellphone or wallets. The
bag has two different handles
that go from the top of the bag, cross at the bottom of the bag and come up
again on the top of the bag
adding more stability to the bottom of the bag and leveling off the bag when
loaded. Both handles come
from the same base. One is long so it can be use around the shoulder and one
is short in case that the
user wants to hold the bag by hand when carrying and taking the full bag from
the shopping cart to their
car or home. In the inferior part of both handles the bag has a foam stitched
which will protect the hands
and shoulders of the buyer while carrying the bags when they are heavy. The
bag also has a clipper on top
that close the bag while is in use to avoid groceries getting out when full
and protecting the products
inside on rainy days. The bag has three straps stitched at the top part of the
bag in the internal side, which
fall inside the bag while in use, each strap has a small piece of Velcro not
limited and three velcro stripes
not limited to at the bottom of the bag on the external side of the bag. When
the bag is not in used the
three straps at the top of the bag will come out and the bottom part of the
bag will fold up in counter
clockwise direction, the straps will click with the Velcro stripes and the bag
will be fold in three times its

size or in half not limited to by itself or with two or more members making
easier to carry the bag and
bringing convenience to the user to have multiple reusable bags fold into one.
This bag can be used during
the shopping experience so buyers can organize groceries while putting it into
the shopping cart and
checkout without the need to put in and put out the groceries on the cart
specially when using smart
carts, in smart grocery stores or while doing self-checkout and self scan. The
bag can also be used after
cash-out to transport the groceries from the grocery store to their car and
finally to home. The use of this
bag is not limited to grocery stores and grocery shopping.
