Abstract
Refuse bin with tiltable lid comprises a support member (1) to be secured at a fixed point spaced from the ground, and an upperly open refuse container (2) of virtually vertical longitudinal axis removably coupled to said support member on a transverse horizontal swing axis (333) such as to enable the container to automatically occupy a predetermined substantially erect non-use position in which it is closed by a respective lid, the lid being hinged to said support member on a horizontal axis (222) parallel to the preceding and being linked to the container in such a manner as to be opened and closed when said container swings about its swing axis in the direction in which it moves away from said substantially erect position, and in the opposite direction, respectively.
Claims13
A refuse bin with tiltable lid comprising a container having an upper mouth, the container being removably coupled to a support member;
- the lid being hinged to said support member and tiltable between a closed position in which it closes the container mouth and an open position in which the lid is raised away from the container mouth, wherein the lid comprises a downwardly directed appendix inserted in the container mouth in the closed position;
- the container being rotatably engaged to the support member on a fixed horizontal swing axis;
- wherein when the container is rotated about said swing axis the container mouth acts on the appendix of the lid and raises the lid to the open position.
