ABSTRACT:
A hamper/sorter (15) for storing and sorting laundry which loads from the front with one or more openings is described. The hamper/sorter (15) is comprised of the main body and two moveable doors, one upper flexible door (5) that slides vertically and a lower rigid door (4) that can be stowed horizontally under the hamper/sorter (15). During operation, the doors adjust the front openings to allow for small or large laundry items to be loaded and unloaded for storing or washing. The upper and lower door edges that meet together are formed at an angle opposite of each other so that the upper door (5) overlaps the lower door (4). A stop plate (14) is installed on the upper door (5) to keep the doors in the normally closed position. This invention is versatile enough to be used as a hamper or sorter in any location that permits its mounting. One or more of these hamper/sorters (15) can also be mounted together in a horizontal row to provide a sorting system. The size of the invention is about the size of a typical floor hamper and allows for more than one washer load of laundry to be stored.
