Various embodiments of receptacle assemblies, such as trash cans, are disclosed. In some embodiments, the receptacle assembly includes a body portion with an interior space. The receptacle assembly can include a lid portion configured to move between an open position and a closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a pedal portion operably connected with the lid such that moving the pedal portion moves the lid portion between the open position and the closed position. The receptacle assembly can include a motion damper configured to dampen motion of the lid portion. The motion damper can be positioned near a front of the body portion and/or above a front portion of the pedal portion.

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 receptacle for yard waste will allow the user to quickly combine the collecting, compacting and bagging of leaves and yard waste by providing a single receptacle that a user can collect yard waste into a bag within, and then compact. The bag is quick and easy to install within the receptacle, and is removed through the front opening so that the user doesn't have to lift the compacted bag out of the top of the receptacle. The front opening also makes it possible to do away with the step of having to eliminate one or more air pockets between a traditional plastic yard waste bag and the bagging container.

A vomit receptacle that includes a nausea relief substance that may be released on demand to relieve the nausea of a user who also must be prepared to contain a vomiting event. The receptacle may be a flexible bag, and the relief substance may be contained in a sealed packet in the bag, or in a kit with the bag. The substance may be an aromatic essential oil such as peppermint oil.

Various trash can assembly embodiments are disclosed. In some embodiments, the trash can assembly includes a body and a lid assembly. The lid assembly can include a lid, and a multicomponent trim ring. The lid assembly can be rotatably connected with the body via a hinge unit. In certain embodiments, a flange of the trim ring is guided into and/or received into the hinge unit. A translating pin of the hinge unit can engage into the flange, thereby providing a rotatable connection between the trim ring and the body. In various embodiments, the translating pin is coupled with a handle to facilitate movement of the pin by a user during engagement of the trim ring and the hinge unit. A positioner can help to position the trash can against or adjacent to a wall or other structure. The movement of both the trim ring and the lid can be dampened.

A trash can that includes a frame, a liner, and a lid. The frame has a base and a casing supported on the base. The liner is removably disposed within a cavity of the casing. The lid is coupled to and rotatable relative to the frame between a closed position, in which the liner is concealed, and an open position, in which the liner is accessible. The lid is rotatably coupled to the frame by a hinge, such that the hinge and the lid do not extend rearward a rear surface of the casing in the open position.

Described herein is a lockable trash can equipped with a foot pedal, lid, and an unlock arm. This inventive concept is lockable, reusable, and durable. This inventive concept includes an upper foot pedal to control a locking system and a lower foot pedal to raise and lower the lid. An L-shaped series of connected rods is designed to allow the lockable trash can to be unlocked and opened by transferring energy applied by a user's foot to the foot pedals to the actions of the lid. In a related embodiment, a cable assembly, a latching plate and latching lever are used to simplify the unlocking of the lid by the pedal.

The trash can with rodent guard and latching lid is a container. The trash can with rodent guard and latching lid is configured for use in storing refuse. The trash can with rodent guard and latching lid forms a protected space used to contain the refuse.
