Waste can lid

Stackable drawer

A cover for a waste can has three elements: a collar; a lid; and a spring link, so-named because it functions both as a linkage between the collar and the lid and a spring for biasing the lid closed. Three modes of operation are made possible by the location of a pair of parallel pivot axes, one between the lid and the spring link and the other between the spring link and the collar. The collar is friction fit on any suitably sized receptacle.

Waste can cover

A worksurface system is provided which includes a rear and front worksurface. The rear worksurface has a front edge and a rear edge. The front worksurface has a front edge adjacent a user of the system and a rear edge generally parallel and adjacent to the front edge of the rear worksurface. The rear worksurface is supported by a plurality of rear posts. A plurality of brackets, each connected to a rear post, support the front worksurface. These brackets are adapted to allow the front worksurface to be adjusted to different heights in relation to the rear worksurface.
