Container and container lid

Abstract

A container and lid therefor in which the lid has annular or perimetral structure for mounting the lid on the container, as well as a dependent integral scoop for removal of a substance from a surface. The lid and scoop combination per se is especially intended for the removal of dog droppings, i.e. dog feces, from sidewalks, etc. in the urban environment. Thereafter, the lid-scoop member laden with dog feces may be fitted onto the open end of a used container such as a used standard steel can, e.g. a used and empty soup, vegetable or dog food can. The container lid features, in addition to the integral scoop, perimetral elements about the disc-shaped lid for securing the disc-shaped lid member to the circular top free edge of the open cylindrical container, e.g. a used standard steel can. These perimetral elements include inner and outer circular protuberances on opposite sides of an annular channel in the disc-shaped member.
