BIN LINER LINER.

The invention relates to a cardboard square tube that inserts inside a plastic bin liner.

The problem with all bin liners is that they collapse in on themselves when trying to fill them with anything. The invention will therefore be useful where a plastic bin is not practicable.

The object of this invention is to prevent the immediate collapse of the bin liner when trying to fill it and to enable transportation of the bin liner from site to site.

As a result, the bin liner liner provides a stiff inner support with cut-out handles and slots to tuck in the top of the bin liner to keep it upright and in place.

Preferably, the bin liner liner will be made of some sort of recycled cardboard or else some easily manufactured plastic that can be used a few times before being thrown away.

A description of the invention will now be described as follows: FIGURE 1 shows the whole object assembled as seen as if from within a bin liner.

FIGURE 2 shows the invention as fo how it should easily be assembled.

FIGURE 3 shows the bin liner liner as seen in a flat pack before assembly.

As shown in FIGURES 1 and 3 the unit comprises of cut-out handles at the top of each side (as represented by numbers 3) for ease of transportation.

Numbers 4 represent the cross slots that the top of the bin liner are tucked into to prevent the bin liner collapsing to the floor.

Number 2 are the flaps that insert into the corresponding slots (number 1) to form the square tube and are folded back to keep the square tube in place.
