A metal cabinet for housing medical waste disposal containers includes a locking mechanism for controlled access into the metal cabinet and a cut-out or window integrated into the metal cabinet for visualization of a portion of the medical waste disposal container(s) housed therein.

An animal waste containment assembly includes a container that is positioned outdoors to be accessible to people walking their pets. A drawer is slidably integrated into the container and the drawer supports a garbage bag for collecting animal waste that is deposited in the container. A lid is hingedly coupled to the container and the lid covers the opening in the container when the lid is positioned in a closed position. A deodorizer dispenser is disposed on the lid to dispense a measured amount of the chemical deodorant when the lid is opened. A foot pedal is movably disposed in the container and a linkage is movably coupled between the foot pedal and the lid. The lid is urged into the open position when the foot pedal is stepped upon to facilitate the person to deposit the bagged animal waste into the container.

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 shielded enclosure receives REID-tagged packaging from consumed medical items. The enclosure includes a housing and a lid. An opening in the lid receives the packaging into an internal space. A chute surrounds the opening and extends downward into the internal space. The chute has front, left, right, and rear walls. A hood attached to the lid surrounds the opening. An aperture in the hood allows passage of the packaging into the lid opening. The hood includes rear, right, left, and top walls. RF absorbing material covers inside surfaces of the chute and hood, including a front panel on the chute front wall, a rear panel on the hood rear wall and the chute rear wall, a left side panel on the hood left side wall and the chute left side wall, a right side panel on the hood right side wall and the chute right side wall, and a top panel on the hood top.

A waste receptacle comprising a columnar body having a waste bin holding area configured to accept a waste bin, an upper body portion and a lower body portion, wherein the upper portion includes an waste opening through which waste can vertically enter the bin holding area; a front door having top and bottom portions, wherein the bottom portion is pivotally attached to the lower body portion; an opening restraint device connected to the body and the front door and configured to prevent the front door from pivoting away from the body more than about 45 degrees; and wherein the waste receptacle has a height, width and depth and has an omega value that is defined as a ratio of the depth over the height and is between 0.25 and 0.33.

A 3 in 1 reverse vending machine. A vending machine that is solar powered and accepts bottles and cans made of plastic, aluminum, and glass. The machine includes a conveyor system, barcode reader and cleaning system, this prepares the bottle and cans to be shredded and then granulated into small pieces. The machine houses a delivery system that carries the smaller pieces of processed material to its predetermined receptacle for storage. Each bottle and can has a monetary value once received by the machine that will be issued to the user once all bottles and cans are received and calculated per user per transaction.

A sanitary napkin disposal device. The sanitary napkin disposal device includes a housing. The housing is defined by a base, where a plurality of sidewalls extends upward from the base towards a top wall. This housing defines an interior volume. An opening extends through a sidewall of the housing and provides access to the interior volume of the housing. The opening feeds into a chute, such that items placed through the opening will fall into the chute. A door is placed over the opening, the door is movable between an open position and a closed position. The door is spring-biased in a closed position.
