  • Patent number: 5205433
    Abstract: A waste-collecting container for compostable waste, in which the interior consists of two spaces arranged one above the other, the lower space having the purpose of collecting a liquid from the compostable waste and the capability of discharging such liquid. This space is thereby, on the one hand, sufficiently large in order to be able to reliably receive the accumulating liquid, on the other hand, the emptying of both the liquid area and also of the waste container itself is to take place easily and without any problems associated with the waste becoming again mixed with the liquid. The lower space is for this purpose separated by a fork-like grate from the remainder of the container housing, which grate is usually arranged horizontally, however, during emptying pivots about an axle which is horizontally oriented in the container housing. A reliable separation of solid and liquid waste and their complete emptying out of the waste-collecting container is, in this manner, assured.
