Method of lifting a load using a bag coupled to a lifting sling
A method of lifting a loaded bag with a coupled lifting sling. The bag has a top portion, a closed sidewall, a closed bottom portion, and an opening on the top portion. The method uses a lifting sling coupled to the bag, where the lifting sling is a series of straps that holds the bag. The bag has a series of strap retention devices attached near the bags top edge. The straps are movable vertically in the retention devices. The method includes the steps of loading the bag with a load to a load level, then lifting the lifting straps using a lifting device. The bag's surface above the load line slides down the coupled straps, as the straps are coupled but not attached to the bags above the load line.

A flexitank including a bladder and a series of straps positioned across the top of the bladder. The straps may be directly attached to the side or bottom of the flexitank, or may be encircling straps.
A non-self supporting containment bag used in conjunction with a dumpster container. The bag and liner each have a zipper, where the zippers are centered on the bag top, and in use, the bag top is usually inverted to access the interior of the bag.
The inventor herein has found that constructing the flexitank 1 from an inner layer of suitable plastic elastomeric materials (polypropylenes (PP), polyethylene or other suitable polymeric materials) preferably linear low-density polyethylene, and adding an external shell of non-woven material, preferably where the non-woven material has an outer non-absorbent face 6 to deter moisture wicking through the non-woven polymeric material, increases the structural strength of the flexitank. Further, the addition of supporting straps across the top portion of the flexitank, greatly reduces internal wave action, and the resulting stress on the bladder.

Containment bag system for use in a commercial disposal container
The invention consists of a non-self supporting containment bag used in conjunction with a dumpster container. The bag has a zipper or other sealable means, and a series of pick-up or attachment loops or handles may also be attached to the outer bag material.

A remotely releasable lifting frame having a plurality of rigid structural members connected to form a rigid lifting frame, where the rigid lifting frame has an upper side and a lower side. Positioned on the lower side of the rigid frame are a plurality of hooks. Each hook has a movable portion, movable between a hook open condition and a hook closed position. Each hook, when closed, is locked in the hook closed condition to resist movement to a hook open condition in response to a release signal when a downward load is applied in excess of a predetermined load. The release frame additionally has a control circuit with a controller and a transmitter, where the transmitter is remote from the rigid lifting frame. The controller is in communication with the hooks so that upon receipt of a release signal from the transmitter, the controller signals to a subset of the hooks to unlatch or unlock the hooks, whereby allowing those hooks to move to a hook open configuration.
