A sanitary product disposal container includes a container housing having a movable housing top cover, a movable housing bottom cover, and a sensor. A cover actuating mechanism may operably engage the housing top cover to actuate the housing top cover between open and closed positions. The sensor may operably interface with the cover actuating mechanism to facilitate deployment of the housing top cover between the open and closed positions responsive to sensing the presence of a person in proximity to the container housing. 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 without having to touch the container housing in order to open the housing top cover. The housing bottom cover may be selectively opened to facilitate removal of the used feminine hygiene products from the interior space.

The present invention is an improved trash receptacle comprising a frame which houses an inner bin. The inner bin has an open bottom covered by a storage tray and a bin tray that can slide out from an opening in a front of the trash receptacle for ease of cleaning. The storage tray stores replacement trash bags that can be pulled out of an opening in a center of the bin tray. The bin tray has raised edges as well as the opening which has a raised lip encircling the opening, which prevents any spillage from a trash bag lining the inner bin to spill into the storage container. The trash receptacle also comprises a halo lid which seals a top of the trash bag lining the inner bin to prevent slipping of the liner.

A system and method for preventing leaks from rubbish containing liquids and noxious smells has an air-tight and water-tight reusable trash receptacle. The receptacle uses an inner ring and an outer ring to secure a bag. A lid contains a seal such that an air-tight and water-tight seal is formed when the lid is engaged with the outer ring. The outer ring has a seal that engages the bag such that an air-tight and water-tight seal is formed when the outer ring is engaged with the liner on the inner ring.

A car trash can includes a fitting part fitted into a gap between a front seat and a center console and provided with a recessed part on one side surface or both side surfaces. A mounting bracket protrudes a predetermined length from one side surface of the fitting part and has a plurality of holding parts. A trash storage box has an adjustable mounting height by selectively fixing a holding provided on the rear surface of the trash storage box to one of the plurality of holding parts. An article storage part may be provided on the upper portion of the fitting part. An elastic part may be installed on one or two of the recessed parts to be elastically pressed when inserting the car trash can between a seat and a center console and firmly fit the car trash can between the seat and the center console.

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.

A refuse container having an indicator assembly for informing a waste generator of contamination in a waste stream. A refuse container includes a container body comprising a receptacle portion and a lid coupled with the receptacle portion. The receptacle portion includes a plurality of walls that together define an enclosed space for containing refuse. An indicator device is coupled with the container body. The indicator device is movable relative to the container body between a first position and a second position. First indicia is provided on one of the indicator device or the container body. When the indicator device is in the first position, the first indicia are visible from the exterior of the refuse container, and when the indicator device is in the second position, the first indicia are not visible from the exterior of the refuse container.

A cart includes a body portion forming a receptacle. A lid is pivotable relative to the body portion. A lock assembly includes a hasp fixed relative to one of the lid or the body portion. A lock is fixed relative to the other of the lid or the body portion and includes a catch for engaging the hasp and an actuator in electrical communication with a controller. The actuator is configured to actuate the catch to selectively secure the hasp relative to the lock.

A lid assembly for a cart includes an outer wall defining an outer surface of a lid. An inner wall defines an inner surface of the lid. A hasp is pivotably connected to the lid and is moveable between an extended position and a retracted position. A plurality of flexible arms extend from the lid towards the hasp.

A sanitary waste disposal device for portable use includes a shell, which defines an interior space and which is substantially impermeable to water. An opening is positioned in a front of the shell proximate to a top of the shell. A cover panel is hingedly engaged to the shell proximate to the opening. The cover panel is hingable from a first position, wherein the cover panel closes the opening, to a second position, wherein waste is insertable through the opening into the shell. A mounting element is engaged to the shell proximate to the top and is used to selectively mount the shell to a substrate.

The present invention discloses a retainer mechanism, comprising a first engagement assembly that is configured to be actively moved to one of a hold or a release state of the first engagement assembly, and a second engagement assembly that is configured to be passively moved to one of a hold or a release state of the second engagement assembly.
