Vehicle tow device for wheeled containers
A vehicle tow device for wheeled containers preferably includes a hitch insert, an upright member, at least one support member and at least two retention members. The hitch insert preferably includes a U-shaped cross. The upright member preferably includes a U-shaped cross section and a horizontal flange extending from a top thereof. The hitch insert is attached to the upright member. Each support member includes a top flange and a side flange. Each support member is pivotally engaged with the horizontal flange. Each retention member includes a first retention flange and a second retention flange. Preferably, a bottom of the second retention flange is bent upward, substantially perpendicular to itself to form a non-pivot flange. A top of the second retention flange is bent to an acute angle to form a retention flange. The second retention flange is attached to a side flange of the support member.
Grease container and lid for the same
The invention is generally applicable to a container. More specifically, the invention is applicable to a container for the collection, storage and transport of waste and refuse material, such as food grease generated by restaurants, schools, hospitals, grocery stores, hotels and other institutions that generate waste food grease.
ANIMAL WASTE REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL TOOL
The present disclosure provides for a waste clean-up and disposal device for scooping-up, bagging, and disposing of pet waste in a sanitary manner. The device includes a scooper body for removably housing and protecting a flexible tubing dispensing cassette. The scooper body defines a passageway between a waste entrance opening and a waste exit opening. The cassette dispenses flexible tubing from the waste exit opening for receiving waste materials such as pet waste droppings.
Bottom-Handled Bag Having Integral Ergonomic Handle Formed From Deflected Weld Line
A handle body is formed in a lower end of a bag between a transverse bottom seal and an intermediate handle seal. The handle body has a deflected weld line having a midpoint and end points, and is nearest to the transverse bottom seal at the midpoint. The deflected weld line is arranged so that a line tangent to the deflected weld line at either end point defines an angle greater than or less than 90 degrees with respect to a second line running transversely through the midpoint. Between the midpoint and the end points, the deflected weld line can include different combinations of perforated, nonperforated, welded, and nonwelded line segments.
Assemblies removable without tools
A hub or wheel assembly includes a retaining element, biasing element, and hand-maneuverable release mechanism. The housing includes an axle bore configured to receive an axle and a pin sleeve including a first end in fluid communication with the axle bore, a second end, and a conduit between the first end and the second end. The retaining element is within the conduit and is configured to operatively engage a groove in an axle. The biasing element is within the conduit and is configured to bias the retaining element towards the axle bore. The hand-maneuverable release mechanism is configured to displace the retaining element away from the axle bore.
COMMERCIAL GRADE WHEELED REFUSE RECEPTACLE WITH LID
A refuse receptacle is disclosed, having a body with an upper and a lower portion, the upper portion having a top rim forming a gusset with a vertical wall and a horizontal wall, the lower portion having a bottom side with a base rim. On the back side of the upper portion is a handle attached to the body of the receptacle. The handle is attached to the upper portion by at least one projecting sidewall. A lid is included, having a convex upper surface and two sets of opposing sidewalls. The opposing sidewalls correspond with the top rim of the body. The lid includes at least one projection to attach to the handle with a securing plate and fastener. The lower portion includes a drainage plug so that liquids within the body can be easily drained. A pair of wheels are connected by an axle and housed within wheel recesses.
Basket for temporarily storing organic such as kitchen waste
The basket has a bottom (1) and an upstanding side wall (2) provided with ventilation openings (3). It is composed of two identical halves (4, 5) which are arranged to be mounted onto one another to form the basket. Each of the basket halves (4, 5) comprises a bottom portion, forming one half of the bottom (1) of the basket, and a side wall portion, forming one half of the side wall (2) of the basket. The bottom (1) of the basket is a closed bottom but a seam (10) is present between the two bottom portions. Liquid is prevented from leaking out of the basket through this seam (10) due to the fact that the bottom portions drain from said seam (10) towards the side wall (2) of the basket.
Smart waste device and waste tracking system
An electronic waste tracking device, process, and system to track waste from one location to another location.
Easy open container
A container is provided. The container comprises a cover, a base, and a body, which includes one or more spine structures and one or more door panels which may open and allow substantially lateral access to the interior of the container. The one or more door panels may be secured in a closed position by a latch mechanism. In a first mode, the latch mechanism is not released. In a second mode, the latch mechanism is released. The first mode and the second mode may operate concurrently and can be accessed separately via different mechanisms. A switch mechanism may alternate between the first mode and the second mode. Alternatively, a pedal includes a first pedal mechanism corresponding to the first mode and a second pedal mechanism corresponding to the second mode.
Anti-splash vomit receptacle
Disclosed is a bucket for receiving oral wastes of a user. The bucket includes a container and an Anti-splash back apparatus. The container receives the oral wastes of the user. The container incorporates a base and a container wall extending upward from the base, said container wall having an inner surface and an outer surface. The container incorporates an open top for receiving the oral wastes of the user. The Anti-splash back apparatus during intended usage is intended to maintain the oral wastes within the container. The Anti-splash back apparatus includes a first blade and a second base, both configured within the inner surface of the container sidewall. The first blade extends across the voluminous void of the container at an acute angle from the base meeting the inner surface of the container sidewall. The second blade extends across the voluminous void of the container at an obtuse angle from the base within the container sidewall. The first blade and the second blade are configured to extend along a path substantially parallel to the base. The first blade and the second blade intersect to form an Anti-splash back apparatus. Further, the bucket includes plurality of handles attached to outer surface of the container wall, which during intended usage allows the user to easily hold the container.
