Abstract (en)
[origin: US6211637B1] Soiled and/or contaminated objects often have to be collected before they are specifically disposed of.According to the invention, in order to prevent blockages in toilets and sewers, a contactlessly operating container (1) is used which has a lid (2) which opens when a hand or an object approaches a proximity detector (50).The container (1) is suspendable from a supporting housing (12) accommodating the entire control means, the drive and the power supply.A preferred use of the device is the disposal of sanitary towels (14) which are immersed in a gel (15). The container (1) is periodically replaced by a clean container so that satisfactory hygiene conditions can also be maintained in frequently used toilet areas.
