11 Claims, 4 Drawing Figures SHEET PATENTEI] JUN 1 0 I975 1 GARBAGE BAG SUPPORT AND STORAGE DEVICE BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to support and storage stands for disposable trash and garbage bags such as those commonly used as household disposable bags. These bags are commonly made of a plastic material which must be fastened at the top while waiting for dis posal to prevent the garbage from falling out of the plastic bag.
Briefly what is provided in the preferred embodiment of the present invention is a portable structure made of elongated tubular support members fastened together by standard nuts and bolts. The lower portion of the garbage bag stand is comprised of for example two concentric tubular members which prmide support for the garbage bags when mounted on the garbage bag stand. As a means of maintaining the garbage bags in closed position while awaiting disposal. two similar. hinged circular tubular members are prmided at the uppermost portion of the garbage bag stand. Sets of screws. for example. projecting up through the lowermost circular tubular member working in conjunction with holes in the upper circular tubular member act to grasp and lock the top of the garbage bag in position. A hinge and a trunk type latch is provided so that the upper circular member can be raised and lowered as desired and locked in its closed position.
A basic object of the instant invention is to provide a portable means to support several garbage bags at one time on a movable structure which can be stored for example in a garage and then easily rolled out into the area where the garbage is picked up when desired.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a light weight. inexpensive garbage bag support and storage stand which is capable of holding several garbage bags at one time in a closed position convenient for disposal.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS For a further understanding of the nature and objects of the present invention. reference should be had to the following detailed description. taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. in which like parts are given like reference numerals and wherein:
FIG. I is a side view of the preferred embodiment of the garbage bag support and storage device of the present invention. partially cut away with some of the inner elements shown in phantom lines. while FIG. 2 is a top. plan view. partially cut away and with some of the inner elements shown in phantom lines. of the embodiment of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the embodiment of FIG. 1 showing the garbage bag stand having four garbage bags mounted thereto with the top in its open position; \vhile FIG. -I is a perspective view. similar to that of FIG. 3. but with the top in its closed. locked position.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. the preferred embodiment of the garbage bag support and storage device I of the present invention is comprised of four elongated. identical. generally -shaped tubular support members l5. I6. 32 and 33 fastened together in vertical array by sets of bolts and nuts [8 and 2I. The set of nuts and bolts 18 and 21 act to hold the C"-shapcd members I5. 16, 32 and 33 in a rigid position with respect to each other in a generally vertical array to serve as the basic vertical support element of the stand I. Internal spacers I9 and are provided to position and keep members 15. I6. 32 and 33 in a fixed position relative to each other.
Concentric tubular. horizontally disposed. support rings 22 and 23 are bolted to C"-shaped members I6. 32. I5 and 33 by bolts and nuts 27. 28. 29 and 30 on the lower portion or leg of their -shape. The tubular rings act as further support for the shapcd members as well as forming a support platform upon which the garbage or trash bags are placed.
On the upper portion or leg ofthe C"-shapc. a first. movable circular member Ill fastened to a second. substantially identical. horizontally disposed ring II by means of hinge member I7. the two upper. ring members III. II forming means for closing off and holding the upper ends of the garbage bags. The inner support ring 22 lies directly in line under said upper members 10. I] and is substantially identical thereto. Nuts and bolts secure the lower ring tubular member I l to shaped members l5. I6. 32 and 33. Hinge I7 is at tached to ring tubular members Ill and II to allow them to move relative to each other. while trunk type latch I2 serves to hold the ring tubular members Ill and II in a fixed. locked positionv A set of nuts and bolts I4 are projected into the holes directly above them in ring tubular member Ill. Several sets (four illustrated) of these bolts I4 are positioned around the ring tubular member II. each providing a means of grasping the garbage bags in a closed position while they await disposal. It is noted that the center one of each three bolt-set also is used to bolt the bottom upper ring 11 to the vertical support. C-shaped members. It is further noted that the upper face of each nut associated with each bolt I4 being screwed down thereon against the upper surface of ring I] serves as a shock absorbing surface or cutting board as the bolts 14 pierce the garbage bag and the top upper ring 10 forces the top of the garbage bag down against the nuts.
As a typical operation in using the garbage bag stand I. a user would roll the garbage bag tree I into his garage or kitchen where the garbage bags 2 are to be loaded on. The user then releases trunk latch 12 so as to be able to open ring tubular member 10 relative to ring tubular member I I by means of hinge 17. The bag or bags 2 are then placed in position as shown in FIG. 3 of the drawings whereby the upper ends of the bags are clasped over the set of screws 14. Ring tuhular memher it) is then firmly secured downwardly. causing the screvis H to pierce the top oi the garhage bag. to a position whereby trunk latch l2 retains ring tubular member 10 in locked position relative to ring tuhular member ll. Trash bags 2 are then secured lirmly in place relative to the garbage bag stand 1. and the garhage hag stand I is ready to he poi'tahly pushed to a lace where the garbage will be stored or piclted up.
As with most mechanical duices. the preferred cm hodiiiient ofthe present invention is capable otalmost unlimited variation. For example. rather than four ver tical support meinhcrs. two. three 01' more could be used. or even one il it had a multiplicity of horizontal extensions. Additionally. rather than the bolts 14. screws could be u ed or other fastening means could he used such as wire clamps. alligator clamps. slip loclt rings. slip loop chain. hoolts or ties. etc. and at least some of these elements could he used with only one upper ring rather than the hingedly attached two rings. Moreover. rather than a circular array for the hOliYUfltally disposed members. another shape could he used as triangular. square. rectangular. or other polygonal or curved configuration. The material for making the tubes is al o a matter of choice, typical examples being plastic or chrome plated metal. "the preferred cmbodi. ment illustrated was designed to accommodate lour lull garhage bags sized around two feet. six inches by three feet. one inch which [its twenty to thirty gallon cans. although these particulars are merely a matter ofdesign choice.
