A lid retaining device adapted to secure the lid of a container. The device adapted for receipt on the container and for contact with a mechanical arm of a garbage truck, wherein a grasping force applied to the device will move the device from a closed position to an open position. The device having a lid retaining means with an adjustable height, the height adapted to allow the lid be retained at a position that is not completely closed.

A method for using a mobile waste storage device is provided. First, a self-propelled storage device with a mobile waste storage device is provided and includes a storage body having a waste receiving space and a plurality of body fastener receiving passageways and a pair of cover sections flexibly attached to the storage body and extending over each other when covering the waste receiving space, each cover section having a cover fastener receiving passageway extending through an end thereof and positioned to correspond with another cover fastener receiving passageway extending through an opposite cover section and one of the plurality of body fastener receiving passageways when the pair of cover sections overlap to cover the waste receiving space. Then, the waste receiving space is filled and the pair of cover sections are secured using a fastener extending through cover fastener receiving passageway, the another cover fastener receiving passageway, and one of the plurality of body fastener receiving passageways. The pair of cover sections to the storage body are fastened using a plurality of fasteners and positioned on the self-propelled storage device to be moved to a location for pick up.

A robot for moving trash bins and recycle bins from a storage area typically garage or driveway, to a curbside for engagement by garbage/recycle collection truck and then later the robot returns the bins back to their storage area. This works best with the commonly used two-wheel bins. The robot detects the location of the bins using a camera and artificial intelligence and lifts the bins off the ground using an arm and hook to drag the bins on their wheels to the curbside one at a time. The robot may distinguish between types of bins, the owner bins and other's bins by a barcode sticker. The robot detects its directions from driveway to curbside by either a line drawn on the ground and detected by its camera or by using a training method that keeps track of images on its way and uses artificial intelligent.

A mobile waste storage device is disclosed. The mobile waste storage device includes a storage body and a pair of cover sections. The storage body includes a waste receiving space and a plurality of body fastener receiving passageways. The pair of cover sections is flexibly attached to the storage body and is extendable over each other when covering the waste receiving space. Each cover section includes a cover fastener receiving passageway extending through an end thereof and positioned to correspond with another cover fastener receiving passageway extending through an opposite cover section and one of the plurality of body fastener receiving passageways when the pair of cover sections overlap to cover the waste receiving space.

The present invention provides a waste receptacle comprising an outer bag having a flexible construction forming an opening at a top side and at least a pair of upper straps capable a third strap for retaining peripheral items, of attaching the receptacle to a rail, a lid attached at a top of bag to close the opening. The receptacle having an inner bag having a backbone circumferentially disposed around the inner bag to help maintain the inner bag in a generally cylindrical shape, the inner bag insertable through the opening of the outer bag and a pull string to disposed at the top of the inner bag being capable to cinch the top of the inner bag closed and a buoyant float member disposed in the outer bag.

A container and a method of fabrication thereof, the container comprising side walls, a front wall and a back wall, the walls extending from a base wall to a top edge of the container, and defining an inner cavity, wherein the front wall comprises an upper part and a lower part recessed inward from the upper part, the lower part comprising facing walls extending inwardly from an external surface of the upper part to a recessed wall, the facing walls and the recessed wall extending downwardly to the base wall; each one of the two facing walls supporting an engaging element, the two engaging elements facing each other; and a grab bar is secured in rotation between the two facing walls, a first end thereof engaging with a first one of the engaging elements and a second end thereof engaging with a second one of the engaging elements.

A sanitary product disposal container includes a container housing having a movable housing top cover. A cover hinge assembly allows the top cover to pivot between open and closed positions. Accordingly, a used feminine hygiene product may be placed in the interior space of the container housing in the open position of the housing top cover while minimizing touching the container housing to open the housing top cover. The housing may be selectively opened to facilitate removal of the used feminine hygiene products from the interior space all without exposure to the used products or the escape of unpleasant odors.

A lifting/tipping device for emptying a collection container into a filling shaft of a baling press has a horizontal construction, for compaction of loose material, particularly of cardboard or similar waste/packaging material, into bales. The collection container can be pivoted from a starting position into an emptying position via a special lifting/tipping device, so that then, the waste material falls out of the collection container and through the filling shaft into an ante-chamber of a pressing chamber, in front of a pressing organ of the baling press, under the force of gravity. Thereby this ante-chamber is filled for the pressing process. The collection container is positioned on the baling press in such a manner that the functional surface required in the baling press is utilized in multivalent manner, thereby reducing the total functional surface.

The disclosure discloses a dry garbage collection system and method with compressing and packing function, the system includes a central control display, a garbage putting bin, a compression and hot-melting bin, a packing bin, a forwarding bin, an air purification bin, a garbage can and a box; the garbage put in the system is compressed to form a cake shape and then performed a packing, and the garbage bags are hot-melted to shape, and vacuumized during packing process; the weight of the garbage before and after compression is compared to determine whether there is more wet garbage in the input dry garbage, so that an alarm can be sent out when the garbage classification is not standardized. The present disclosure realizes effectively compression and packing of garbage, significantly reduces the volume of garbage, prevents the garbage bin from overfilling, reduces subsequent garbage transfer times and transportation costs.
