Description
- This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 10/614,557, filed Jul. 7, 2003, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,077,283.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to household items, and in particular, to a trash can assembly that allows for convenient and sanitary replacement of a trash bag from an internal liner.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- A major concern for both the home and the workplace is containing and holding wastes, refuse, and trash until permanent disposal. Trash cans act as containers for holding trash and other wastes that are produced in any typical home or office. Trash and garbage cans often employ lids and covers to contain the trash and its associated odor, to hide the trash from view, and to prevent the trash from contaminating areas beyond the lid.
- Conventional trash cans have been improved over the years to make them more user-friendly, sanitary, and hygienic. For example, many trash cans are now provided with a foot pedal positioned adjacent the base of the trash can so that a user can step on the foot pedal to open the lid of the trash can, thereby freeing up the user's hands to toss trash, or to change the plastic liner or bag that is used to line the trash can. Other trash cans have even provided an internal metal or plastic liner that fits inside the trash can, and which can be removed to be washed. However, these conventional trash cans still suffer from a number of drawbacks.
- A number of these drawbacks are associated with the internal liner. In conventional trash cans, a trash bag is fitted over the internal liner, and the user typically needs to raise the liner from the interior of the trash can to remove the trash bag. When the user raises the liner from the trash can, the user may need to grip portions of the trash bag on the interior of the liner, so that the user's fingers may come into contact with dirt, germs or trash items. In addition, the user often needs to remove the entire internal liner to replace the trash bag because there is no mechanism for maintaining the liner in a raised position with respect to the trash can when the user is replacing the trash bag. Unfortunately, the removal of the internal liner is not sanitary since this might result in the spillage or spread of waste material.
- Thus, there remains a need for a trash can that facilitates the convenient and sanitary replacement of a trash bag from an internal liner.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a trash can assembly that allows the user to remove an internal liner in a sanitary manner.
- It is another object of the present invention to provide a trash can assembly that facilitates the convenient and sanitary replacement of a trash bag from an internal liner.
- In order to accomplish the objects of the present invention, there is provided a trash can assembly that has a shell, a liner fitted inside the shell, a lid fitted over the top end of the shell, a foot pedal positioned adjacent the bottom end of the shell, a link assembly coupling the foot pedal and the lid, and a support block provided adjacent the bottom end of the shell for supporting the liner in a raised position with respect to the shell.
- In use, the user can fit a trash bag inside the liner, and then seat the liner inside the shell. To replace the trash bag, the user can raise the liner with respect to the interior of the shell, and support the liner on the support block in a raised position with respect to the shell while removing the trash bag.

In certain instances, detailed descriptions of well-known devices and mechanisms are omitted so as to not obscure the description of the present invention with unnecessary detail.
-
FIGS. 1-5 illustrate one embodiment of a trash canassembly 20 according to the present invention. Theassembly 20 has ashell 22 and aninternal liner 24 that is adapted to be retained inside theshell 22. Theshell 22 can be made from either plastic or metal. Theliner 24 is essentially a container, and can also be made from either plastic or metal. Theshell 22 is an enclosing wall which can have any desired shape, including oval, triangular, rectangular, square or circular (among others). Theliner 24 can have the same shape as theshell 22. Anupper support frame 28 can be secured to the opened top of theshell 22, and can be provided in a separate material (e.g., plastic if theshell 22 is metal) from theshell 22. - A
lid 32 is hingedly connected to theupper support frame 28 using hinged connections that are well-known in the art, and will not be described in greater detail herein. As one non-limiting example, thelid 32 can be hingedly connected to theshell 22 in the manner that is described in U.S. Publication No. US-2002-0079315-A1, published on Jun. 27, 2002 and entitled “Trash Can Assembly With Toe-Kick Recess”, whose entire disclosure is incorporated by this reference as though set forth fully herein. Theshell 22 and itslid 32 can be made of a solid and stable material, such as a metal. Theshell 22 has abase 34, and afoot pedal 36 is pivotably secured to thebase 34. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , alink assembly 38 extends from thefoot pedal 36 along thebase 34 and then upwardly along theshell 22 to theupper support frame 28 and thelid 32. Thelink assembly 38 operates to translate an up-down pivot motion of thepedal 36 to an up-down pivot motion for thelid 32. The construction and operation of link assemblies are well-known in the art, and will not be described in greater detail herein. As one non-limiting example, thelink assembly 38,foot pedal 36 andlid 32 can be constructed in accordance with that which is described in U.S. Publication No. US-2002-0079315-A1, published on Jun. 27, 2002 and entitled “Trash Can Assembly With Toe-Kick Recess”. - The
base 34 of theshell 22 defines a generally annular and curved skirt orflange portion 42. In one embodiment of the present invention, theskirt 42 is formed in one plastic piece. Theshell 22 can be attached to the top of theskirt 42 of thebase 34 by a groove snap-on, glue, welding, screws, and similar attachment mechanisms. Asupport block 44 is provided on the rear part of thebase 34, adjacent thelink assembly 38. Thesupport block 44 can be embodied in the form of a plastic or metal block having a height that is, in one non-limiting embodiment, at least one inch, and through which thelink assembly 38 can extend. - The
upper support frame 28 has an annularrecessed wall 46. One or more cut-outs orgrooves 48 are spaced-apart about thewall 46. Thegrooves 48 allow the user to insert his or her fingers through thegrooves 48 under theupper lip 50 of theinternal liner 24 to lift theinternal liner 24 from the interior of theshell 24 when thelid 32 is opened. This provides a convenient way for the user to remove theinternal liner 24 from theshell 22, without requiring the user to place his or her hands inside theinternal liner 24 to grip theinternal liner 24. -
FIG. 4 illustrates the trash can assembly 20 with thelid 32 pivoted to the open position, and with theinternal liner 24 completely seated inside the interior of theshell 22. In this position, thelip 50 of theliner 24 is preferably aligned with the topannular edge 52 of theannular wall 46. As best seen inFIG. 4 , a portion of thelip 50 of theliner 24 can be accessed via any of thegrooves 48 in theannular wall 46. Thus, the user can raise theliner 24 by gripping thelip 50 via anygroove 48. - Once the
liner 24 has been raised, the user can tilt the bottom 58 of theliner 24 towards the link assembly 38 (i.e., towards the rear of the shell 22) so that the bottom 58 of theliner 24 is seated on top of thesupport block 44, as shown inFIGS. 1 and 5 . Thus, thesupport block 44 functions to maintain theliner 24 at a position where theliner 24 is slightly raised with respect to theshell 22, so as to provide sufficient clearance for the user to grip the trash bag. The user can then remove the existing trash bag, and replace it with a new trash bag, all while theliner 24 remains inside theshell 22. When the user has completed the replacement of the trash bag, the user can lift theinternal liner 24 slightly and then tilt the bottom 58 of theliner 24 away from the link assembly 38 (i.e., towards the front of the shell 22) so that the bottom 58 of theliner 24 can be fitted via gravity on the top surface of thebase 34, as shown inFIG. 4 . - The above detailed description is for the best presently contemplated modes of carrying out the invention. This description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating general principles of embodiments of the invention. The scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims. In certain instances, detailed descriptions of well-known devices, components, mechanisms and methods are omitted so as to not obscure the description of the present invention with unnecessary detail.
