Garbage disposal assembly apparatus

A garbage disposal assembly apparatus, comprising a top part, an elongated member, a handle, and a support member, wherein:

• the top part comprises an upper portion, a lower portion, and an opening, wherein:
• the upper portion is configured to extend over the top of a sink flange of a garbage disposal assembly placed in a sink drain opening as part of an installation of the garbage disposal assembly to a sink, wherein the garbage disposal assembly comprises the sink flange, a fiber gasket, a backup flange, and a mounting ring;
• the lower portion is configured to extend from the upper portion into the sink flange;
• the opening of the top part extends partially into the lower portion on the opposite end of the top part from the upper portion;
• the opening of the top part is configured to allow the elongated member to insert partially into the top part while the elongated member securely engages with the opening of the top part;
• the top part is configured to be placed on top of and partially into the sink flange of the garbage disposal assembly during the garbage disposal assembly installation;
• the top part is configured to apply pressure to the sink flange to seal the sink flange in the sink drain opening for installation;
• the top part is configured to apply pressure to the sink flange to stabilize the sink flange in the sink drain opening for installation of other garbage disposal assembly components, wherein the other garbage disposal assembly components comprise the fiber gasket, the backup flange, and the mounting ring;
• the elongated member comprises an elongated bar;
• the elongated member is configured to securely connect to the top part within the opening of the top part;
• the handle comprises an opening, wherein:
• the opening extends through the handle;
• the opening is configured to allow the elongated member to engagedly move through the handle, wherein the handle is thereby configured to allow the elongated member to move through the opening of the handle while securely and movably engaged with the opening of the handle;
• the elongated member is configured to engagedly move through the opening of the handle in an upward direction or a downward direction with respect to the opening through the handle;
• the handle is configured to be hand moved by a user of the garbage disposal assembly apparatus;
• the handle is configured to engagedly move in the upward direction or the downward direction with respect to the opening of the handle along the elongated member passing through the opening of the handle by moving the handle with respect to the elongated member passing through the opening of the handle;
• the handle is configured to press against the support member when the handle is moved in the upward direction along the elongated member passing through the opening of the handle;
• the handle is configured to engagedly move along the elongated member while the elongated member is securely connected to the top part and the elongated member passes through the sink flange, each of the other garbage disposal assembly components, and the support member;
• the support member comprises a base, a total of two legs including a first leg and a second leg, and an opening, wherein:
• the support member has a U-shape formed by the first leg and the second leg extending respectively from each end of the base;
• the opening extends through the base in a direction parallel to the first leg and the second leg extending from the base;
• and
• the opening of the support member is configured to allow the elongated member to pass through the support member;
• the elongated member is configured to pass through the opening of the support member;
• and
• the support member is configured so that the end of the first leg and the second leg respectively, the base, engages the bottom of the sink when the handle presses in the upward direction against the support member, whereby the top part is pulled in the downward direction by the elongated member thereby applying pressure on the sink flange.
