Abstract:
The present invention is a bag (1) composed of multiple removable bags (10) (9) (8) (7) (6) (5), forming a set (1) with bags disposed in layers (5). It is designed to be used especially in places that accumulate and/or collect grit/dirt, both in hydraulic plants and in isolated places, such as trash cans and temporary toilets. It is also appropriate for places where products are separated manually. It resolves the difficulties of the first steps of placement of bags end reduces the time spent on carrying out maintenance, bringing benefifs both due to its lower cost and the less time of exposure to an uncomfortable body position for its users. The set (1) is set in place, and the innermost bag (10) of the set is removed after being used, taking with it its contents; after that, the place is immediately ready for use. After the first bag is used and removed, the second ,0g (9) is, and so forth, until all the bags have been used.
Abstract:
A stackable refuse collection container including a body having a bottom and an open top, the body constructed to be nestingly stacked with at least one similar body through the open top. A cover is formed to engage the body and close the top. An engagement mechanism is coupled to the body and the cover, the engagement the cover onto the body to allow compaction of refuse therein, and a disengaged position permitting removal of the cover from the open top. A loading door is formed in an end of the body for receiving refuse from a compactor mechanism.
Abstract:
A waste container (20) includes a handle (40) rotatably mounted on the side wall (24). The handle includes a first grip (42) at an outer end of a short arm (66) and a second grip (72) at the outer end of a long arm (70). The handle is rotatable relative to the waste container, between a first position where the first grip extends a first distance above an upper edge (36) of the side wall of the waste container and a second position where the second grip extends a second distance above the upper edge of the side wall, with the second distance being substantially greater than the first distance. In this manner, the handle can be moved to the proper location for either pulling the waste container on its wheels (60) or for emptying the waste container into the hopper of a truck.
Abstract:
A waste receptacle (10) and method of disposing waste. The receptacle (10) includes a container portion (20) configured to receive a liner (90) therein. The container portion (20) includes a pair of liner retainer elements secured to the outside surface on opposite sides of the container portion (20). The liner retaining element includes a pair of spaced flanges (40a, 40b) protruding from the wall of the container portion (20). The liner retainer elements are configured to receive a portion of the liner (90) disposed in the container portion (20) and prevent the liner (90) from collapsing into the container portion (20) as waste is placed therein. The waste receptacle can also include a dispenser (60) for storing a plurality of liners (90).
Abstract:
A vehicle (2) is provided with a number of retractable supporting wheels (5). When this vehicle (2) is coupled to a load (3), the supporting wheels (5) can be lifted off the ground so that a very easily controllable assembly (1) is produced. Through the correct selection of the position of the centre of gravity, the wheel pressure on the drive wheels (4) is as great as possible. Due to the fact that the supporting wheels (5) can be raised independently, coupling with a load is facilitated.
Abstract:
A system and method for nesting multi-layered trash bags for trash receptacles. The bags preferably each have an elastic member providing compression to securely hold the nested trash bags in relative position until filled and removed. The elastic member is a rubber element or alternatively an elastic drawstring. A rigid member can be utilized in conjunction with the nested trash bags to facilitate the installation of the multi-layered trash bags into the trash can.
Abstract:
A bin for receiving or storing one or more items. The bin includes a wall having an upper end and a lower end, and a bottom extending along the lower end of the wall. The wall and the bottom cooperate to define a chamber for receiving or storing one or more items. The bin also includes mouth at the upper end of the wall that is in communication with the chamber. The bin further includes a rim extending around a periphery of the mouth. The bin also includes content information on at least a portion of an exterior surface of the rim that is configured to identify the one or more items the bin is intended to receive or store.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a lid assembly constructed to facilitate compartmentalisation of a wheelie bin, to allow separate opening and closure of compartments either side of a central hinge axis, to allow the securing of either lid independently in the open or closed position, and to prevent the ingress of rain or other precipitation into the internal compartments when the lids are in the closed position.
Abstract:
An accumulation/disposal bin includes a container body with an upper opening. A lid is mounted on a hinge on the forward wall of the body, to pivot about an axis proximate the upper opening. The lid pivots about the forward edge of the opening, allowing a lock to be formed on the rear edge of the lid. Edge mounted wheels may further be located proximate the rear bottom of the container, diagonally across from the hinge. The bin may further include a lifting slot on the rear wall. A handle may be formed proximate the upper opening on the rear of the bin. The lid may comprise a downwardly slopped ramp extending from an opening in a horizontal plane to beneath a portion of the lid that at least partially covers this horizontal plane. The ramp and the covering portion of the lid define first and second slots each in a generally vertical plane. The second slot provides an entrance to an interior of the container body.
