Definitions

  • the field of the disclosure is bag enclosures, more specifically, bags for waste containers such as diaper pails.
  • garbage bags are known and used in everyday life. Typically a garbage bag is made of plastic sheets. In prior art garbage bags, the mouth of the bag has cinching straps, allowing a user to cinch the bag closed when needed.
  • Another way to close the bag includes tying a knot; there is a continuing need for new ways to close a garbage bag when the bag is full.
  • One aspect of the disclosure is directed to a disposable bag assembly having necessary hardware intended for quick and easy installation into a diaper pail system.
  • the disposable bag assembly is not only for a particular diaper pail but is universally acceptable for use in garbage cans, so long as the collar structure of the disposable bag is appropriately sized and shaped to fit over the upper rim of the garbage can.
  • the disclosure is directed to a disposable bag with a foldable collar, wherein the collar can collapse onto itself and has a receiving structure which helps keeping the bag's neck in a twisted closed configuration, thereby effectively sealing the bag.
  • the receiving structure is a locking notch, which can be located on various parts of the collar.
  • the notch can be a cutout that serves as a catch to hook around a twisted neck of the bag or around another part of the bag. In operation, the user would remove the bag from the waste container, fold the collar, and then use the locking notch to keep the bag in a twisted closed configuration.
  • Fig. 1 is a side view of an embodiment of the disposable bag having the foldable collar tilted 90 degrees in order to reveal the circular mouth opening of the bag.
  • Fig. 2 is a top angled perspective view of one embodiment of the foldable collar without showing the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 3 is a top angled perspective view of another embodiment of the foldable collar without showing the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 4 is a top angled perspective view of yet another embodiment of the foldable collar without showing the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 5 is a side view of one embodiment illustrating a side view of the foldable collar and reinforced apertures on the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 6 is a top perspective view of a diaper pail showing a top for receiving the contemplated foldable collars.
  • Fig. 7 is a top perspective view of a diaper pail with one embodiment of the disposable bag installed and a twisted neck visible.
  • Fig. 8A is a perspective view of one embodiment of the disposable bag with a twisted neck.
  • Fig. 8B is a perspective view of the embodiment of 8A, where the twisted neck is received within the locking notch.
  • Fig. 9A is a perspective view of one embodiment of the disposable bag also with a twisted neck but the twisted neck is hidden behind the foldable collar. This figure illustrates a finger of the foldable collar being engaged with an aperture of the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 9B is a perspective view of another embodiment of the disposable bag also with a twisted neck but the twisted neck is hidden behind the foldable collar. This figure illustrates a finger of the foldable collar being engaged with a sleeve of the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 9C is a perspective view of yet another embodiment of the disposable bag also with a twisted neck but the twisted neck is hidden behind the foldable collar. This figure illustrates a locking notch of the foldable collar being engaged with a strip of the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 9D is a perspective view of a further embodiment of the disposable bag also with a twisted neck but the twisted neck is hidden behind the foldable collar. This figure illustrates a finger of the foldable collar being engaged with a loop of the enclosure body.
  • Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the embodiment in Fig. 9A where the foldable collar is collapsed, showing the twisted neck.
  • Fig. 11 is an illustration of a foldable collar employing six collar bodies.
  • Fig. 12 is an illustration of a foldable collar employing five collar bodies.
  • Fig. 13 is an illustration of a foldable collar employing four collar bodies.
  • Fig. 14A is an illustration of a locking notch having a cove-shaped structure.
  • Fig. 14B is an illustration of a locking notch having an L-shaped structure.
  • Fig. 14C is an illustration of a locking notch having a T-shaped structure.
  • Fig. 15 shows one particular embodiment of the disposable bag having a collar without any folding lines, and the collar is being disengaged from the waste container.
  • Fig. 16 shows a pliable collar being deformed so it may pass through the circular opening defined by the short circular wall without any need for folding lines.
  • Fig. 17 shows a disposable bag having a collar without any folding lines because the collar can fit through a slot opening in the top of the waste container without having to bend or fold the collar.
  • a contemplated disposable bag 100 having an enclosure body 180 with an internal space for holding trash, used diapers, and any other garbage.
  • the bag 100 can have a neck portion 189 coupled to the body portion, and the neck portion acts as a conduit between the opening 110 (i.e., a mouth) and the internal space of the body portion 180.
  • the neck portion 189 does not necessarily have to be narrower than the body portion 180.
  • the neck portion 189 simply signifies a section of the bag 100 that is generally located below the opening 110 and above the body portion 180.
  • the opening 110 is defined by an upper rim of the disposable bag 100, and the upper rim is above and coupled to the neck portion 189.
  • the upper rim of the disposable 100 is coupled to a foldable collar 120. This foldable collar can couple directly and permanently to the upper rim or couple to the bag 100 near the upper rim. In most embodiments, the bag 100 is coupled to the foldable collar 120 along the entire circumference of the upper rim.
  • the purpose of the foldable collar 120 is to act as a coupler, so that the disposable bag
  • an embodiment of foldable collar 120 is provided to have six collar bodies 123A, 123B, 123C, 123D, 123E, 123F consecutively coupled to one another in a circular fashion.

  • Figure 14A shows a locking notch having a cove-like structure 528, where the entrance (formed by opposing fingers 529) is narrower than the inside void.
  • Figure 14B shows an L-shaped locking notch 628 having a finger 629.
  • Figure 14C shows a T-shaped locking notch 728 having a finger 729.
  • the contemplated embodiments can have a receiving channel 127 disposed next to the finger 129.
  • the receiving channel 127 can have various widths and is designed to be sufficiently wide to abuttingly receive a part of the disposable bag.
  • the bag 100 has a twisted neck hidden behind the foldable collar 120.
  • the finger 129 hooks into aperture 182 which is disposed on the shoulder portion of the enclosure body 180.
  • aperture 182 wraps around finger 129, the surrounding region of aperture 182 is received into the channel 127.
  • the twisted neck is hidden behind the foldable collar 220, and the finger 229 hooks into sleeve 282 which is disposed on the shoulder portion of the enclosure body 280.
  • the width of the channel 227 need not be sufficiently narrow to fittingly receive the sleeve 282.
  • the finger 229 it is more important for the finger 229 to have a width that fittingly and correspondingly inserts through sleeve 282.
  • the width of the finger 329 is not as important as the width of the channel 327.
  • channel 327 is a narrow slit to receive and hold a strip 382 which is disposed on the shoulder portion of the enclosure body 380.
  • a user may optionally wrap strip 382 around the finger 329 repeatedly so the strip 382 can be more securely fastened to the foldable collar 320.

  • collar bodies 223 A, 223C, and 223F can be made of pliable material such as plastic or cardboard, which allows any support structure from the waste container to push through the X-shaped through-hole 222.
  • the disclosure also includes a method of waste management using a waste container and a disposable bag having a foldable collar.
  • the foldable frame acts as a rigid or semirigid coupler to securely fasten the mouth opening of the bag to the waste container.
  • This foldable collar may work with corresponding structure on the waste container to keep the mouth opening of the bag from moving.
  • the foldable collar does not need to work with corresponding structure on the waste container to keep the mouth opening of the bag from moving. For example, this is feasible by using flexible collar with similar characteristic as a rubber-band so that it would fasten on the waste container based on friction.
  • the foldable collar can have at least two collar bodies each pivotably foldable in relation to another via pre-scored folding lines. In some embodiments, there can be at least four collar bodies. In yet another embodiment, there can be at least six collar bodies 123A, 123B, 123C, 123D, 123E, 123F. Using collar bodies 123A, 123B, 123C, 123D, 123E, 123F pivotably foldable along pre-scored folding lines allows the foldable collar to collapse into a smaller profile.
  • FIG. 6 shows a waste container 500 without the disposable bag 100 in place.
  • the waste container 500 has a top 530, corresponding structures 532 in the shape of short cylindrical columns, an interior wall of the waste container 515, a knob 534, a head of the knob 535, and a short circular wall 537. Because the disposable bag 100 is not in place, the interior wall 515 of the container is clearly visible from looking through the circular opening defined by the short circular wall 537.
  • Contemplated methods of the disclosure include the step of placing an enclosure body 180 portion of the disposable bag 100 into the waste container 500. Next, placing the foldable collar 120 over a top 530 of the waste container 500 so the enclosure body 180 and the foldable collar 120 are now on either side of the top 530 of the waste container 500.
  • the interior wall 515 of the waste container 500 is no longer visible from looking through the opening defined by the circular wall 537. Instead, one may see the interior of the enclosure body 180 by looking through the opening defined by the circular wall 537.
  • Fig. 7 shows the foldable collar 120 being folded out and secured to the top 530 of the waste container 500 thereby keeps the foldable collar 120 from rotating relative to the top 530 of the waste container 500.
  • the step of securing the foldable collar 120 to the top 530 of the waste container 500 can be accomplished by inserting the three short cylindrical columns 532 through the three through-holes 122. As shown in Fig. 7, the foldable collar 120 is secured in place and cannot easily disengage from the top 530 of the waste container 500. In Fig. 7, the short circular wall 537 is not visible because the bag now drapes over it.
  • the user may hold the knob 534 and rotate the top 530 which in turn rotates the foldable collar 120 thereby creating a twist in the neck 189 as shown in Fig. 7.
  • the bag attachment mechanism holds the enclosure body 180 by engaging with aperture 182 (or sleeves 282, strip 382, loop 482).
  • the contemplated removal method includes releasing the foldable collar 120 from the top 530 of the waste container 500. This simply means pulling the foldable collar 120 upwards so that the short cylindrical columns 532 are no longer inserted through the through-holes 122. Then, collapsing the foldable collar 120 into a smaller profile as shown in Figs. 10, 11, 12, and 13 then pass the collapsed foldable collar 120 downward through the circular opening defined by the short circular walls 537.
  • this top 530 is hinged to the waste container 500 and can pivot open so the user may have access to the bag 100. In another embodiment, this top 530 can be fully detached from the waste container 500 so that user may have access to the bag 100.
  • the bag 100 is ready to be removed from the waste container 500.
  • the neck 189 of the disposable bag 100 is already kept in a twisted configuration.
  • the neck 189 of the disposable bag 100 is not kept in a twisted configuration and the user would need to create this twisted neck configuration by rotating either the foldable collar 120 or the enclosure body 180 against each other.
  • An important step of the contemplated method includes using the locking notch 128 or finger 129 from the foldable collar 120 to abuttingly engage either the twisted neck 189, or shoulder portion of the bag as previously described so as to keep the neck 189 from untwisting.
  • a disposable bag can have a collar 820 without folding lines.
  • the collar can have through- holes 822 to engage with corresponding structures 532 on the top 530 of the waste container 500.
  • the collar 820 has been lifted off the top 530, and is ready to be inserted through the circular opening defined by the short circular wall 537
  • Fig. 16 shows the collar 820 from Fig. 15 being made of pliable material so it is configured to deform or bend and be passed down through the circular opening defined by the short circular wall 537.
  • the neck 889 is not twisted. Whether or not the neck 889 is twisted when a user removes the collar 820 from the top 530 depends on whether or not the user had twisted the neck 889 first by rotating the top 530 using knob 534.
  • Fig. 17 shows the same collar 820 without any folding lines.
  • the collar 820 may or may not be made of pliable material because it can easily be passed down through a slot opening 977 made available on the top of the waste container.
  • the top of the waste container has similarly corresponding structures 932, short circular wall 937, and a knob 934 to rotate the top.
