Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a combination trash collection and compaction trolley that has a main front door with a trash door that provides access to an interior of the trolley so that trash can be front-loaded into the trash door, as well as an open top portion, which allows trash to be top-loaded into the open top portion.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate generally to door locking systems for use in connection with trash compactor systems for preventing inadvertent opening of the main door during a compaction cycle.

Abstract: A single-handle faucet for mixing liquid and water and controlling the flow rate therethrough. A valve element having a generally cylindrical shut-off seal and a generally cylindrical ported seal mounted axially adjacent each other on a stem portion of the valve element. A single handle is provided to shift the valve element axially of the bore to control flow volume and to effect shut-off, or rotationally to control water temperature. The relationships are such that both peripheral squeeze and water-pressure forces are employed to provide sealing actions at the shut-off seal and ported seal. The actuating means is a handle that extends through a slot in the valve body, and indicators are provided adjacent the handle to indicate temperature range.

Abstract: The robotic assembly of a keyboard using a multiplicity of keys of a plurality of distinct types, such As key caps on a sculptured keyboard, can be substantially increased in speed by the use of a multifacted rotatable turret for picking up and installing the key caps onto the keyboard. A programmable robot, having a robotic arm is provided with a rotatable multifaceted turret. Each facet of the turret includes a key handling member which is molded to accept a distinct type of sculptured key. The types of sculptured keys are segregated in a pick-up position. The turret is manipulated by the robotic arm in the pick-up position to pick up a multiplicity of keys of one given type on each of the facets of the turret. Thus, each turret picks up one type of keys. The turret is then translated by the robotic arm to an assembly position. The turret is once again rotated and advanced to assemble the key caps on to key stem projected from the keyboard.
