Devices And Methods For Cleaning Corrugated Surfaces
A device for aiding in cleaning a corrugated surface includes a container and a plurality of teeth is disclosed. The container includes a bottom portion, an upper portion, and a pair of opposing side walls defining an opening configured to receive materials therein. The bottom portion includes a plurality of slot. Each of the plurality of teeth are coupled to and extend from first ends of corresponding ones of the plurality of slots and are configured to be at least partially disposed within corresponding grooves of the corrugated surface to aid in causing materials to be received within the opening of the container.
Single-Ring Hand Mounted Secure Item Waste Receptacle
A hand mounted secure waste item receptacle is described having a hollow container with a base formed to a single ring-shaped structure sized appropriately for mounting to one or more fingers of a human hand and stabilized against rotational motion. The top surface of the container has a central opening with narrowing slots extending radially outward providing access for the waste items and tool holding such items to be positioned therein and moved outward within any of the slots allowing for a wiping action to remove the waste item from the tool with the waste item to remain within the hollow receptacle.
CONTAINER SYSTEM WITH SUPPORTABLE LINER
A waste or recycling container system is disclosed. The container system includes a container and a rigid liner for inserting into the container. The liner includes a supporting structure provided on a wall of the liner. The liner also includes bag retention structures. The liner is capable of being placed in the container in a first position and a second position. In the first position, the bag retention structures are below an opening of the container. In the second position, the supporting structure rests on a resting portion of the container walls and the liner is elevated with respect to the first position such that the bag retention structures are above the opening of the container.
RECEPTACLE ASSEMBLIES WITH MOTION DAMPERS
Various embodiments of receptacle assemblies, such as trash cans, are disclosed. In some embodiments, the receptacle assembly includes a body portion with an interior space. The receptacle assembly can include a lid portion configured to move between an open position and a closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a pedal portion operably connected with the lid such that moving the pedal portion moves the lid portion between the open position and the closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a motion damper configured to dampen motion of the lid portion. The motion damper can be positioned near a front of the body portion and/or above a front portion of the pedal portion.
Two-part garbage can with twist-on sidewall
A trash can has a separable sidewall and a base. The sidewall has an upper end and a lower end spaced from the upper end, both of which are open. A set of slots open at the lower end of the sidewall and extend upward from the lower end into the sidewall with a directional change. The base is adapted to accommodate the sidewall so as to close the lower end of the sidewall. The base has a raised perimeter wall with a set of protections along an inner face that are engageable with the slots in the sidewall. The sidewall is without a constriction in width toward its lower end. The sidewall may increase in diameter from the upper end toward the lower end.

Various embodiments of receptacle assemblies, such as trash cans, are disclosed. In some embodiments, the receptacle assembly includes a body portion with an interior space. The receptacle assembly can include a lid portion configured to move between an open position and a closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a pedal portion operably connected with the lid such that moving the pedal portion moves the lid portion between the open position and the closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a motion damper configured to dampen motion of the lid portion. The motion damper can be positioned near a front of the body portion and/or above a front portion of the pedal portion.
Receptacle
A receptacle comprising a container and a lid is disclosed. The container includes one or more walls and a plurality of gussets extending from the container. The gussets include a first gusset having a cavity facing away from a second gusset. The lid includes a plurality of hinge components, namely a first hinge component including a first pin. The lid is pivotally coupled to the container by inserting the first pin of the first hinge component into the cavity of the first gusset and using a second pin to rotationally couple the second hinge component to the second gusset. A first protrusion, extending from the first hinge component, is configured to contact the first gusset and restrict opening of the lid.
Trash containers
An accessory comprises a clamp configured for clamping onto the transport device frame and a trash container coupled to the clamp.
