Receptacle having a top inlet, side outlet, and facilitated cleaning

A receptacle, comprising:

• a top through which articles may pass and be collected within said receptacle;
• a base;
• a side wall extending between and spacing said base and said top and having an opening therein;
• a guide adjacent said side wall defining a door path circumscribing a complete circle;
• first and second doors movable through said guide between a first position of contact therebetween and blocking access to said opening and a second position of contact therebetween permitting full access to said opening;
• and
• a liner interior to, spaced and fully removable from said side wall, defining a space between said liner and said side wall substantially capturing said first and second doors when in said second position of contact.

A sanitary receptacle which is operatively assembled for receiving matter through a top, accessible through the side to remove matter accumulated within said receptacle, and disassembled to provide direct access to all surfaces for cleaning and sanitation, and which may be repeatedly assembled to receive matter and disassembled for cleaning and sanitation, comprising:

• an outer shell having a base and vertically extending from said base and defining a full circumference about an open space and having an opening formed in said outer shell circumscribing substantially one half of said full circumference;
• an inner liner having a base and vertically extending from said base within said open space, repeatedly separable from and assembled with said outer shell, and having an opening corresponding to said outer shell opening;
• at least one door operative in a first position to block said matter from passing from within said open space through said inner liner opening and said outer shell opening, and operative in a second position to permit said matter to pass from within said open space through said inner liner opening and said outer shell opening, said at least one door fully separable from said inner liner and outer shell;
• and
• a top defining an opening into said open space through which said matter may pass;
• said at least one door, said inner liner and said outer shell each separable from each other to permit cleaning of all surfaces of all components of said sanitary receptacle and reassembly thereafter for re-use.
