  • Patent number: 4658720
    Abstract: This invention relates to improvements in refuse bins incorporating compacting means for domestic use, wherein the compacting plate comprises two upwardly oriented tabs which are placed in housings in the lid to be slidably associated with a control member. Catches facing opposite each other and borne by said tabs come into slides in the control member embedded in a groove in the lid. In this way, by subjecting the control member to a translation, it may, at the end of a stroke, be pivoted with respect to the catches in order to orient it vertically with a view to vertically actuating the compacting plate.

  • Patent number: 4447087
    Abstract: The invention relates to an easy chair having two positions. Its support comprises two frames connected together by spacers. The arm of each frame is provided with two notches. The longitudinal elements of the seat position each comprise a notch and a projection, while the uprights of the backrest are provided with a hook and a stop. When the notches in the longitudinal elements cooperate with a spacer located between the front legs of the support and the stops of the backrest cooperate with the rear notches in the arms, the easy chair is in low position. In high position, the projections at the front of the longitudinal elements are retained by the notches at the front of the arms of the support and the hooks behind the backrest abut around a spacer located between the rear legs at the top thereof. The invention is more particularly applicable to garden and outside furniture.
