6 Claims, 2 Drawing Figures SUPPORT BRACKET FOR REFUSE CONTAINERS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention Refuse and garbage containers and especially racks and supports therefor. Supports for garbage bags and the like.
2. Description of the Prior Art The prior art includes numerous supports for garbage bags and particularly open ring-like supports which have a pivoted lid to cover the open plastic garbage bag when not in use. Some of the arrangements for assemblying the lid, the support ring arrangement and the support post for the support ring arrangement are rather involved, complicated and costly and do not lend themselves to shipping in a disassembled condition, for example, from a retail store in a box, and then simple installation and assembly by an inexperienced home owner. The problem with the prior art has resided not in the concept which is old but rather in the execution of the concept from the standpoint of reducing the cost of this particular type of refuse container, which inherently involves the purchase of non-reusable plastic bags, so that the initial investment of the homeowner is negligible and the assembly, installation and use is effective and without problems. The prior art provides many ways of attaching the open plastic bag in place and with or without various closure arrangements. The present invention is directed to the assembly of the bag support and closure through the use of a particular bracket arrangement.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a bracket arrangement for assemblying a bag support de vice such as an open ring construction to a closure lid and provide means for mounting the whole assembly on a pipe or some other surface.
One primary advantage found in the present invention resides in the arrangement of the preferred form wherein a bracket is constructed in two parts each of which may be bent from metal plate and punched with assembly holes whereby the whole assembly may be easily put together.
Another advantage resides in the arrangement set forth in the foregoing paragraph together with the strength and rigidity which is obtained whereby the completed assembly readily supports a heavy bag of trash.
One specific feature of the present support bracket arrangement is found in the oppositely extending curve channel portions of the bracket whereby upper and lower members of the bag support are attached and sprung in place easily but in such a way as to prevent accidental detachment or dislodgement.
Other and further objects and advantages of this invention will appear from a review of the drawings and specification.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a refuse bag support and closure assembly utilizing the present bracket arrangement.
FIG. 2 is a perspective, assembly view of the bracke of the present invention in FIG. 1 disassembled.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT In FIG. I a typical refuse bag support assembly 10 comprises a support ring frame arrangement 12 which is an open, peripheral ring of continuous construction made from steel wire or the like, which may be spring steel, covered with a soft plastic or rubber material and defining a front portion 14, side members 16, a top rear.
member 18 and a bottom rear member 20 which are spaced apart with the ends 22 of member 20 bending upwardly and being welded or otherwise attached beneath the the side member 16. The arrangement just described defines a frame which may be made from any appropriate material. A common plastic garbage bag made from polyethylene or any other suitable plastic, paper or other suitable material is attached with the bag opening on the frame 12 and with the top edges of the bag stretched around the frame front 14, sides 16 and rear 18 or held in place by any suitable attachment arrangement, such as a bag clamp or clips (not shown).
The frame 14 is mounted on the bracket arrangement 30 of the present invention which is to be described in detail hereafter and a plastic lid 32 having a solid top 34 and side flanges 36 is pivotally attached to the bracket 30 by means of a pivot pin 38. Bracket 30 is mounted on a pipe or pole 40 which may be set in concrete in the ground or may be attached to some other support by means of a U clamp or other attachment device (not shown).
Bracket 30, which is shown in detail and disassembled in FIG. 2, comprises two component parts a first plate 42 and a second plate 44 which are connected together during the assembly of bracket 30. First plate 42 comprises a fiat plate: 46 and a socket arrangement 48 which is formed by bending the metal from the plate 46 to create arcuate portions 50. Various bolt openings 52 are formed by punching plate 42. The second plate 44 comprises a center. section 56 which has an inturned channel 58 at the top and an outwardly turned channel 60 at the bottom receiving respectively the upper wire 18 and the lower wire 20 of the bag support frame 12 which .are compressed together by hand and allowed to spring into the channels 58, 60 on upper wire 18 inserted and then lower wire sprung into channel 60. Extending perpendicular to the center section 56 is a pair of side sections 62, 64 which are metal plates having bolt openings 66 punched therein and each of the sections 62, 64 terminate in outwardly extending flange portions 68 which have bolt openings 70 matching with openings 52 in first plate 42.
A set screw 74 threadedly engages a tapped opening 76 in the arcuate portion 50, to tighten the first plate 42 on the post orpipe40. The first plate 42 is assembled to the second plate 44 by means of bolts 80 with nuts 82 in the manner shown in FIG 2 as well as FIG. 1. The pivot pin 38 inserts through. the sides 62, 64 of the second plate 44 and through a pair of flaps 84 shipped in disassembled condition and easily assembled by the homeowner.
If desired, the post 40 may be omitted in instances where the bracket is to be attached directly to a wall surface (not shown) as for example where the bracket would be attached to a concrete wall by means of concrete nails or other common fasteners inserted through the holes 70, 52 into the wall surface or by means of lag screws which may be screwed directly into wood posts.
Accordingly, while I have shown and described a particular embodiment of this invention together with a suggested use and also in conjunction with a more or less common and conventional bag support frame and lid, this is by way of illustration only and does not constitute any sort of limitation on the scope of the invention since there are various alterations, changes, deviations, amendments, omissions, additions, revisions and departures which may be made in the embodiment shown without departing from the scope of my invention which is defined only by interpretation of the appended claims.
