Security disposal cabinet with removable internal container particularly

Abstract

A cabinet and container assembly comprising an enclosed cabinet having an upper opening and a lower opening. The upper opening is equipped with a pivotal disposal door. The lower opening has a hinged door, and is dimensioned such that a wheeled container may be positioned inside and locked within the cabinet. The pivotal door can be pulled forward to an open position presenting a horizontal tray on which waste materials may be rested, with the waste materials sliding along a top chute surface of the pivotal door when it is pivoted upwardly to a closed position, the waste materials sliding rearwardly and downwardly along the chute surface and across the rear edge of the pivotal door, thereby falling downwardly into the center of the open topped container. An curved upper partition positioned within the interior of the cabinet above the pivotal door and closely adjacent the read edge thereof prevents a person from reaching inside the cabinet and accessing the container when the door is paritally opened. The pivotal door provides an handgrip opening generally in the shape of an inverted triangle which may be comfortable gripped by persons of different heights. The container includes a hinged and lockable lid which provides handgrip openings when the lid is open or closed, and castered wheels for rolling the container. The containers may be positioned on a transport cart with the castered wheels engaging the frame members of the cart, or stacked in a column on their sides for transit.
