Patent ID: 7661635

Claim:
A combination for use near a vertical surface, the combination comprising: a t-shirt bag that includes a bag opening, a first bag handle and a second bag handle; and a bag holder including (i) a holder frame having a bag support region that supports the t-shirt type bag near the bag opening, a first handle restraint that selectively engages and retains the first bag handle, a second handle restraint that selectively engages and retains the second bag handle, and a backbone region that extends away from the bag support region; and (ii) a holder handle that is secured to the holder frame, the holder handle being movable relative to the holder frame between a carrying position in which the holder handle is used for carrying the holder frame, and an attachment position in which that holder handle is adapted to retain the holder frame near the vertical surface; wherein the holder handle pivots relative to the holder frame in a first rotational direction during movement of the holder handle from the attachment position to the carrying position, and wherein the holder handle includes an engagement region that engages the backbone region of the holder frame to inhibit rotation of the holder handle past the carrying position in the first rotational direction while simultaneously allowing the holder handle to freely rotate between the attachment position and the carrying position.
