Abstract
The invention is a bag liner band to secure the exterior, overlapping edges of a bag to a container. The liner is composed of an elastic material with predetermined strength, shape, thickness, circumference and width, handles, and label descriptor.
Description
- An elastic band for securing the outer edges of a container liner bag onto the exterior surface of a trash receptacle.
- The use of container liner bags, is very common. For example, liner bags help protect the interior of a container or receptacle from being stained by trash, collecting of liquid at the bottom of the receptacle, and being exposed to harmful trace solvents. Also, liner bags help with the removal of contents in the receptacle. The elimination of residue from the interior of the container helps prevent odors and improves overall cleanliness of both the receptacle and the area around the receptacle.
- To line a container, the liner bag is inserted inside the receptacle so that the outer edges of the liner bag extend over the edge of the receptacle's opening and around the circumference. Often times, the liner bag edge will slide up the exterior surface of the receptacle and down into the interior of the receptacle when materials are loaded into it. An elastic retainer band of a sufficient strength to hold the liner bag in place would be helpful in securing the outer edges of the liner bag so that it does not slide down into the interior of the receptacle.
- There is also a need for marking trash receptacles in some way to distinguish them by the articles that can be placed in the receptacles, such as for a store in a mall location sharing a common trash disposal area with multiple, otherwise identical receptacles. No known method currently exists for securing a bag liner and designating acceptable contents. Bands can also be used as an advertisement or promotional item, and the band coloration can also be used as a decorative element.
- The bag liner bands also need to be convenient to place on and off the receptacle. As such, there is a need for a method of conveniently placing and removing the band on the receptacle.
- The invention is a circular elastic band that fits over the exterior of a container to secure a liner bag to the exterior side of the receptacle. The edge of the liner at the opening to the liner are pulled over the open top of the receptacle leading into interior of the receptacle. The band stretches to fit over the top and friction grips with sufficient strength and frictional force to secure the bag to the side of the receptacle.
- The elastic band includes a handle on the side that aids in moving and placing the liner bag on the receptacle, and in removing the band from the receptacle when the liner bag is replaced. The band is a circular band rectangular in shape with sufficient dimensions or made with appropriate materials to secure the liner bag in place. The band can be constructed of rubber, an elastic plastic or silicone-based material, and can be made in various colors.
- The band also had a functional descriptor label, which can consist of words or a design, applied to the surface. The label assists with the description of what can be deposited in the container. The word descriptor can also be used for advertising, promotion or decoration with various colors.
- The objects and features of the invention will become more readily understood from the following detailed description and appended claims when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which like numerals represent like elements and in which:
-
