Embodiment Construction

[0011]FIG. 1 depicts a trash can 2 with a manual embodiment of the inventive garbage bag extractor 1 in place. The front and right side 4 of the trash can 2 have been cut away for clarity. It is understood that a garbage bag would be placed in the trash can 2 to receive waste and garbage from above in the normal fashion. As shown, the garbage bag extractor 1 has a lifting platform 7 fitted to the cross sectional shape of the trash can 2 with a top side 8 and a bottom side 9, the lifting platform 7 resting in the bottom 6 of the trash can 2. At the top 8 of the lifting platform 7 are attached the bottom ends 13 of vertical lifting arms 11 that ride in vertical slide rails 10 attached to the rear interior side 3 of the trash can 2. The top ends 12 of the lifting arms 11 are attached to a pull handle 14. Also shown is at least one venting hole 20 meant to break the natural vacuum created when the lifting platform 7 is raised. In this embodiment, air would be drawn the slide rails 10 th...
