of the trash receptacle, or, as seen in Figure 7, includes
deformable scalloped projections (21) that may be deformed
interiorly of the trash receptacle, so as to capture the liner
relative to the trash can.
In Meroney, the frame structure (e.g., 38, 40, 42, 44 of
Figure 1) is made of stiffened paper or plastic (col. 3, lines
9-12) and is attached to the interior surface of the liner
sleeve (32) by adhesive or heat sealing. Figure 4 of Meroney
shows a simplified version of the receptacle liner therein
where only panels (68, 70) are provided at the mouth of the
liner sleeve. As can be seen in Figure 5, the panels (68, 70)
may carry a pressure-sensitive adhesive strip (76) protected
by a readily removable protective film (78) for allowing the
panels to be attached to the exterior of a receptacle to
assist in holding the liner sleeve about the rim of the
receptacle.
