  • Patent number: 6053459
    Abstract: A support stand for a garbage bag. A plurality of support members are attached to a bottom hoop for pivotal movement between a storage position substantially coplanar with the bottom hoop and a substantially vertical working position. An upper hoop is constrained for movement with the support members between a collapsed, storage position and an elevated working position above the lower hoop supported on said support members. The support members and the upper hoop cooperate to retain releasably the upper hoop in its working position. A garbage bag is inserted inside the upper hoop and supported by the garbage bag support stand with its open end facing upwardly. The support stand can be lifted over a filled bag, thus avoiding having to lift a filled bag to reposition the support stand.
