ABSTRACT:
An improved open-faced receptacle with a removable fabric receiving face is provided. The receptacle comprises a frame, fabric which is selectively removable from around a portion of the frame creating a receiving face for the receptacle and a securing assembly which tautly holds a central portion of the fabric to a lower portion of the frame so that the receiving face assumes a concave shape. The frame has an upper geometrically shaped opening, which forms the upper rim of the open-faced receptacle, and a lower portion which supports the receptacle. The fabric is substantially configured to conform to the shape of this upper rim portion of the frame, with some slack in the fabric so that it can be pulled taunt by the securing assembly to create the taunt concave shape which acts as the receiving face of the receptacle. The securing assembly comprises a hook member which extends through an opening in a central portion of the fabric, a hold-down member and a bar member. The hold-down member works with the portion of the hook member above the opening in the fabric and acts to grab a small central portion of the fabric and pull it down to create the taunt concave receiving face, when the portion of the hook below the opening is secured to the bar member. The bar member is itself secured to the frame.
