Abstract: Various embodiments of a trash can assembly (e.g., a receptacle configured to receive refuse, recycleable materials, or otherwise), and related methods, are provided. Some embodiments of the trash can assembly include a body component and a lid configured to move between an open position and a closed position. In some variants, the lid can be moved between the open and closed positions by a power operated driving mechanism, such as a motor and/or other drivetrain components. In certain embodiments, the trash can assembly includes a clutch mechanism to facilitate manual operation of the lid while inhibiting or preventing damage to the motor and/or other drivetrain components.

Abstract: A mirror assembly can include a housing, a mirror, and a light source. In certain embodiments, the mirror includes a light pipe configured to emit a substantially constant amount of light along a periphery of the mirror. In some embodiments, the mirror assembly includes a sensor assembly. The sensor assembly can be configured to adjust the amount of emitted light based on the position of a user in relation to the mirror. Certain embodiments of the mirror include an algorithm to adjust light based on the position of a user relative to the mirror, the level of ambient light, and/or the activation of different light modes.

Abstract: A container configured for dispensing a composite fluid is provided. The container includes a cover housing and base having reservoir therein. The cover housing includes a chamber including a recess configured for receiving a pod containing concentrated fluid at least partially therein and a dispensing mechanism. The reservoir is configured to contain a diluting fluid. The diluting fluid and the concentrated fluid are mixed to form a composite fluid that is dispensed via the dispensing mechanism. The composite fluid may be a cleaner, potable beverage, medicated fluid, and/or the like.

Abstract: A dispenser comprising a cover housing, a base at least partially defining a reservoir configured for receiving and maintaining fluid therein, and a dispensing mechanism configured for selectively dispensing fluid from the reservoir is provided. The cover housing comprises a chamber comprising a recess configured for receiving a pod at least partially therein, and a retaining-ejecting mechanism. The retaining-ejecting mechanism enables the pod to be inserted into a retained position at least partially within the recess, retained in the retained position, and released from the retained position. The cover housing is configured to be coupled to the base so as to enclose the reservoir.

Abstract: A soap dispenser can be configured to dispense an amount of liquid soap, for example, upon detecting the presence of an object. Certain embodiments of the dispenser include a housing, reservoir, pump, motor, sensor, electronic processor, and nozzle. In certain embodiments, the sensor can be configured to generate a signal based on a distance between an object and the sensor. In certain embodiments, the electronic processor can be configured to receive the signal from the sensor and to determine a dispensation volume of the liquid. The dispensation volume can vary as a function of the distance between the object and the sensor. The processor can be configured to control the motor to dispense approximately the dispensation volume of the liquid.
