VENTILATED TRASH CAN
A trash can that includes: four sides where the four sides include two first opposing sides and two second opposing sides; a vent system at the bottom of each second opposing side; and a top opening. The vent system preferably includes a plurality of holes, wherein the holes include air fresheners.
Receptacle Venting and Freshening Device
A receptacle venting and freshening device for facilitating removal of liners from trash cans includes a tube, which has a first surface that is complementary to a face of a receptacle. A top of the tube is positioned proximate to an upper end of the receptacle and a bottom of the tube rests on a lower end of the receptacle. A plurality of fasteners is coupled to the first surface and is configured to couple the tube to the receptacle. A hanger, coupled to an interior surface of the tube proximate to the top, is configured to retain an air freshener unit. A plurality of cutouts, positioned in the tube proximate to the bottom, is configured to allow air to flow over the air freshener unit to exit from the tube through the cutouts as a liner positioned in the receptacle is withdrawn from the receptacle to freshen the receptacle.
Containers with multiple sensors
A trashcan assembly can include a body portion, a lid portion pivotably coupled with the body portion, and a sensor assembly configured to generate a signal when an object is detected within a sensing region. The sensor assembly can include a plurality of transmitters having a first subset of transmitters and a second subset of transmitters. A transmission axis of at least one transmitter in the first subset of transmitters can be different from a transmission axis of at least one of the transmitters in the second subset of transmitters. An electronic processor can generate an electronic signal to a power-operated drive mechanism for moving the lid portion from a closed position to an open position, such as in response to the sensor assembly detecting the object.
Dual sensing receptacles
A trashcan assembly can include a body portion, a lid portion pivotably coupled with the body portion, and a sensor assembly configured to generate a signal when an object is detected within a sensing region. The sensor assembly can include a plurality of transmitters having a first subset of transmitters and a second subset of transmitters. A transmission axis of least one transmitter in the first subset of transmitters can be different from a transmission axis of at least one of the transmitters in the second subset of transmitters. An electronic processor can generate an electronic signal to a power-operated drive mechanism for moving the lid portion from a closed position to an open position when the sensor assembly detects the object within the sensing region.

Adjustable stopper assembly for press brake
The present disclosure provides for a reversible and adjustable stopper assembly comprised of an upper frame, L-bracket, connector portion and stopping member. The stopper can be configured to be secured to at least two main types of press brakes. The stopping portion of the stopper is also reversible, allowing for less sheet metal to be inserted into the press brake, if desired. The stopper assembly can be slid in a horizontal manner, relative to the press brake to preserve the measurement of the sheet metal from one end of the press brake to the other.
