Abstract

A trash can shoe comprising a substantially nonlinear body having an upper and lower surface with a thickness therebetween, a proximal and distal end; and a means for reuseably and removably attaching the body to a trash can.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A trash can shoe comprising: 
 a substantially nonlinear body having an upper and lower surface with a thickness therebetween, a proximal and distal end; and    a means for reuseably and removably attaching said body to a trash can.    
   
   
       2 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 1 , wherein said body is made from a material having characteristics selected from the group consisting of lightweight, oxidation resistant, and oxidation proof.  
   
   
       3 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 1 , wherein said body is made from a material having a non-low hardness factor.  
   
   
       4 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 1 , wherein said body is made from a material having a non-high brittleness factor.  
   
   
       5 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 1 , wherein said body is made from polyvinyl chloride.  
   
   
       6 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 1 , wherein said means is selected from the group consisting of a threaded fastener, an adhesive, a rivet, and interlocking features.  
   
   
       7 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 1 , wherein said upper surface is configured and dimensioned to mate with a trash can.  
   
   
       8 . A trash can shoe system comprising: 
 a plurality of substantially nonlinear bodies, each body having an upper and lower surface with a thickness therebetween, a proximal and distal end;    a means for reuseably and removably attaching said body to a trash can; wherein said plurality is attached substantially equidistant about the bottommost portion of a trash can.    
   
   
       9 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said body is made from a material having characteristics selected from the group consisting of lightweight, oxidation resistant, and oxidation proof.  
   
   
       10 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said body is made from a material having a non-low hardness factor.  
   
   
       11 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said body is made from a material having a non-high brittleness factor.  
   
   
       12 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said body is made from polyvinyl chloride.  
   
   
       13 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said means is selected from the group consisting of a threaded fastener, an adhesive, a rivet, and interlocking features.  
   
   
       14 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said upper surface is configured and dimensioned to mate with a trash can.  
   
   
       15 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said plurality is externally attached about the bottommost portion of a trash can.  
   
   
       16 . A trash can shoe system as in  claim 8 , wherein said plurality is internally attached about the bottommost portion of a trash can.  
   
   
       17 . A trash can shoe comprising: 
 a substantially nonlinear body having an upper and lower surface with a thickness therebetween, a center with an outer periphery; and    a means for reuseably and removably attaching said body to a trash can.    
   
   
       18 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 17 , wherein said body is made from a material having characteristics selected from the group consisting of lightweight, oxidation resistant, and oxidation proof.  
   
   
       19 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 17 , wherein said body is made from a material having a non-low hardness factor.  
   
   
       20 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 17 , wherein said body is made from a material having a non-high brittleness factor.  
   
   
       21 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 17 , wherein said body is made from polyvinyl chloride.  
   
   
       22 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 17 , wherein said means is selected from the group consisting of a threaded fastener, an adhesive, a rivet, and interlocking features.  
   
   
       23 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 17 , wherein said upper surface is configured and dimensioned to mate with a trash can.  
   
   
       24 . A trash can shoe as in  claim 17 , wherein said body is made from a material comprising metal.
