Apparatuses and systems for an automated trashcan rover for lifting and moving a trashcan. An automated trashcan rover device may include a motor coupled to a plurality of wheels, a gripping means for grasping and lifting the trashcan, and a power source for power operation of the device. A controller is coupled to the motor, gripping means, and power source and is configured to control the lifting and moving of the trashcan.

A dolly system that is constructed to removeably cooperate with bulk material can(s) or bin(s) to facilitate convenient transport thereof. The dolly system includes a base having a plurality of caster wheels. A bin facing side of the base includes a boss and one or more threads that are shaped to index a respective material bin relative to the base and restrict axial translation therebetween. A catch is defined by the base and engages the bin to resist opposite rotational translation therebetween. The dolly system can include an optional brake assembly supported by the base and selectively operable to resist translation and/or tipping of the dolly system and one or more optional connection brackets for selectively connecting a plurality of discrete dollies and respective bins relative to one another.

A content collection system and method for curbside collecting of multiple segregated recycled material streams stored in a product storage container. The product storage container can include a compartment and a door associated with the compartment. A product collection interface is associated with a product collection vehicle, and is configured to engage with any configuration of product storage container. A product transfer module is associated with the product collection interface and is configured to receive content from the product storage container. The product transfer module includes weight sensors to calculate the weight of content in the product transfer module. A release mechanism is configured to discharge the content from the product transfer module to a bulk product holding unit associated with the vehicle. Software application can be utilized to request collection and/to receive collection data. Computer systems can be utilized to control operations of the system.

An extension device for a refuse container includes a central frame section having a pair of upper frame arms, a pair of lower frame arms and a pair of articulating frame arms. The frame section includes a shape and a size that designed to be compatible with commercial grade refuse containers. An extendable handle section is connected to the pair of upper frame arms, a pair of extendable support legs are connected to the pair of lower frame members, and a pair of extendable lid securement arms are connected to the pair of articulating frame arms and secure the lid of the refuse container in the closed position. Locking tabs located along the pair of lower frame arms secure the device onto the refuse container. The device transitions between a fully extended position for engagement with the refuse container and a fully collapsed position for storage.

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.

Disclosed is a waste container, liner, and rail system. The system may include one or more waste containers or one or more basketless systems or liner receivers to direct, hold, and facilitate the sequential replacement of a waste liner. The system may comprise a pull out track system that is adaptable to cabinetry or another defined space for a waste container. The pull out track system may generally include front, rear, side, and/or base panels, as well as at least one internal panel. The at least one internal panel may define an interior space configured to receive waste liners and to dispense the waste liners automatically.

One example embodiment is adapted for use in facilitating collection and transport of memory devices, e.g., drives, motherboards, etc., e.g., for the purposes of subsequent destruction. The example embodiment has an outer bin, also called a garage or outer enclosure, within which is placed an inner bin with wheels. Once closed and locked, the outer bin has a door that can be opened so drives or other memory devices can be inserted. The drives then fall into the inner bin and, once sufficiently filled, the inner bin be easily wheeled out from the outer bin. The inner bin has its own locking lid that is secured when transporting the inner bin with the drives, e.g., to a destruction facility or area. Other features are provided as described below. Enhanced synergistic security features include use of multi-point locking latches to secure doors and lids, metal construction of the bins, and so on. The bins are sized to facilitate efficient collection and transport of potentially sensitive data center media.

A guide robot includes a lower module includes a wheel and a motor provided inside the lower module, and an upper module disposed at an upper portion of the lower module and including a trash can assembly and a display unit. The upper module includes a body part coupled to the upper portion of the lower module and a head part rotatably coupled to an upper portion of the body part. The body part includes a front case forming a front outer appearance of the body part and including the trash can assembly provided inside the front case, and a rear case forming a rear outer appearance of the body part and including the display unit. A garbage insertion part is provided at a portion of the front case corresponding to an upper portion of the trash can assembly to insert garbage into the trash can assembly.

A trash compactor and sanitation receptacle includes a housing defining an interior cavity therein; a lid; one or more wheels; a display; a camera; a compaction system having four movable members, a first set of railings, a second set of railings, a first set of vertical lift tracks, and a second set of vertical lift tracks; a fumigation system; a sanitation system; a sealing system; a controller; a power switch; and a power source.

A noise-quieting cover reduces the noise caused by rolling a container with wheels made of plastic or other hard material across a surface. The noise-quieting cover further dampens the vibrations caused by rolling the container across a surface, making transportation of the container more comfortable. The noise-quieting cover has a tread with a thickness to effectively dampen noise and vibration. The cover also has sidewalls with areas large enough to keep the cover in place over the wheel. Grip tabs may also be included which may assist the user in stretching the cover over a wheel, assist in making small adjustments to perfectly place the cover over a wheel, and assist in removing the cover from the wheel.
