  • Convertible recycling and refuse container
    Patent number: 6505751
    Abstract: A slatted recycling and refuse receptacle is provided with detents at the top for the mounting of a demountable top on the receptacle. Various tops can be mounted with various decorative treatments. Having the decoration on the top itself enables such decoration to be removed with the top so it doesn't interfere with removal of trash and recyclables from the receptacle through the top.

  • Lid and structural arrangement for recycling and refuse receptacles
    Patent number: 5503287
    Abstract: A cast aluminum structural ring into which is seated a cast aluminum top normally locked to the structural ring and secured by threaded-type fastenings to the upper portions of a slatted-type slanted top receptacle for recycled materials or refuse materials. The outside portion of the structural ring is provided with an angle which varies from portion to portion of the outside surface of the structural ring to conform it to the angle with which it meets the inside of the slats of the slatted receptacle when the structural ring is inserted into the receptacle at approximately the same angle as the slanted top of the receptacle. Preferably the outside of the structural ring and a further reinforcing ring are slightly inclined inwardly with respect to the vertical axis of the receptacle to provide a pleasing bow to the outward surface of the receptacle.
