and which will nevertheless be attractiye. and
ornamental sothat it eanreadily-be-used as an ornamental addition to other furniture in a room, the construction being such as to di sguise thenat 'e of the structure.
i11"9-l10thI importantbbject is to provide a receptacle of the type stated which when-closed, will subs antially prevent the escapement ofany undesirable odors-which might otherwise-emanate from th waste.
Another important obj ect= is to provide a receptacle of the type stated that can be constructed very inexpensively while still meeting the above objects, will be unusuall durable, and will permit removal of the waste-receiving portion thereof with minimum difliculty.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists of certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts, hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claim, it being understood that changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit of the invention as claimed.
Referring to the drawing Figure 1 is a front elevational view of a waste receptacle constructed in accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is a section on line 22 of Figure 1, the dotted lines indicating positions of the waste container when open to receive waste, and when being removed entirely.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the waste container as viewed from the rear.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary perspective view showing a means for opening the container by means of foot pressure.
Referring to the drawing in detail, 5 designates a box-like cabinet, which can readily be made of attractive and ornamental appearance. The

The rear wall I3 has its upper edge in a plane lower than th plane of the upper edge of the front wall II. The rear wall I 3' projects above the downwardly inclined side walls I2.
Secured to the inner surface of the rear cabinet Wall is a stop member I6, that is extended transversely of said rear wall. The stop member I6 has a centrally disposed raised portion I1. The raised portion I1 constitutes a stop limiting downward movement of a crank arm I8 that is journaled in the side cabinet walls, and that is capable of being raised to the dotted line position shown in Figure 2 by means of a foot pedal I9.
The crank arm I 8 is normally held against the raised portion or abutment I! by a spring 20, connected at one end to the crank arm and at the other end to the stop member I6.
Referring to Figures 2 and 3, the front Wall I I of the waste receiver projects below the bottom I4 thereof, and is inwardly and upwardly beveled as at 2|. The rear wall I3 may be formed with legs 22 that also project below the bottom I4, and thus the waste receiver could itself serve as an attractive container apart from the cabinet I, if necessary or desired.
Normally, the waste receiver is seated in the cabinet 5 in the full line position shown in Figure 2, In this position, the front wall of the receiver of this type is often possible only to the detriment of an attractive appearance. By the construction illustrated and described, the structure is eflectively disguised, and represents a worthy addition to furniture in a particular room.
The lower projecting edge Zl of the front wall ll of the waste receiver is normally received in groove 9. Assuming that it is desired to deposit waste in the receiver, it is necessary only to apply a slight downward pressure on the foot pedal l9.
This gives an initial upward impetus to the waste receiver. When the receiver has been given this initial upward movement, it of its own accord continues to fall outwardly until it is in a dotted line position designated A in Figure 2, in which position it'is wholly exposed at its top to receive waste. In moving from its full line position to the dotted line position A, it pivots in the groove 9. The waste receiver is so balanced within the cabinet -that ordinarily, it may be swung to its open position merely by supplying an initial impetus through the medium of the crank arm [8. Once given this first movement, the receiverfalls to its open position by reason of its own weight, now ofi balance; The upwardly projected top edge of the rear wall l3, when this occurs, engages the front cabinet wall, and serves as a stop limiting further outward movement of the waste receiver. Assuming it is desired to remove the waste receiver entirely from its cabinet, one need only lift itslightly so that the lower edge 2| is raised clear of the groove 9. Then, one is enabled to remove the waste receiver entirely from the cabimet by moving it to a dotted line position B. The waste is then readily disposed of.
To return the waste receiver back to its closed position from its open position A, one simply swings it rearwardly part way, by means of the handle l5. Of its own accord, the waste receiver travels the rest of the way until it is again seated on the crank arm Hi.
What is claimed is:
A waste receptacle including a box-like cabinet, the cabinet having a rectangular opening formed in its front wall, outer and-inner strips secured to the cabinet and extended along the lower edge of said opening, whereby to define a groove along said edge, a waste receiver normally seated within the cabinet, the front wall of said receiver being normally flush with the front cabinet wall and having its lower edge removably and pivotally seated within the groove, said receiver including side walls having upper edges inclined downwardly from front to rear, and a rear wall having its upper edge projected above the, side walls to constitute a stop for limiting outward movement of the receiver, a stop member secured to the inner surface of the rear cabinet wall, a crank journaled in the side walls of the cabinet and normally seated on the stop memher, said crank member being normally disposed horizontally to provide a seat for: the bottom of the. receiver, and constituting means for urging thereceiver outwardly through the'cabinet open- JOB G.
