Abstract
A waste disposal device has a container having an opening at a top end, the container defining an inner cavity accessible through the opening. A bag interface at the opening is adapted to hold a bag opened at the opening of the container with a closed end of the bag extending in the inner cavity. A pair of doors is pivotally connected to the container to open and close access through the opening and adapted to close off a portion of the bag passing therebetween, the doors being pivotable from a closed position in which the doors meet to close the access through the opening, to a first pivoted position in which the doors are pivoted away from the inner cavity. One or both doors is or are pivotable to a second pivoted position toward the inner cavity. An actuation mechanism biases the door(s) to the closed position.
