ABSTRACT:
A trash receptacle comprising an elongate can with a horizontal bottom wall and a vertical cylindrical side wall with an upper annular rim defining an open top in the can, a disc-shaped lid with an annular skirt depending therefrom and normally overlying the open top of the can. The lid has a flange radially inward of the skirt defining an annular downwardly opening channel in which said rim is normally engaged. Said upper rim is formed to define a radially outwardly projecting annular shield normally underlying and shielding the lower edge of said skirt, a radially inwardly disposed annular stop surface spaced radially outward from said flange and a downwardly disposed annular stop shoulder above said stop surface. The receptacle next includes a plurality of elongate radially extending circumferentially spaced bolts shiftably carried by said flange for free radial movement from a normal outer locked position where they extend below said stop shoulder and engage said stop surface to an inner open position where they are disengaged from below said stop shoulders. Manually operable means is to selectively shift the bolts between their locked and open positions and includes a manually engageable rotatable handle at the top of the lid, crank means below the lid and drivingly connected with the handle and substantially radially extending rods connected with and between the crank means and the bolts.
