ABSTRACT:
A mounting bracket for a container, such as a container for hospital sharps, is shown. The container includes a flanged top with front, side, and rear walls, extending from the flanged top to a bottom enclosure surface. At the juncture between the rear wall and bottom surface is a container recess having a closed aperture extending upwardly from the top wall of the recess. A mounting bracket includes an upper flange and a lower housing adapted to be received within the container recess for supporting the container. The upper flange of the container is engaged by the upper flange of the mounting bracket through a slot and flange combination. The lower housing of the mounting bracket includes a latching bar which is spring loaded for urging the latching bar into the closed aperture within the container recess. The container and mounting bracket are dimensioned so that the container completely covers and hides the mounting bracket, while the housing on the lower surface of the mounting bracket fits within the container recess for hiding the housing and for locking the container to the bracket.
