Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1992746A2] The invention relates to a waster trap assembly (6) of the type which can be used in a drainhole (4) of, for example, a sink (2) or bath. The assembly includes sealing means (32) such that the assembly can be moved axially between a sealing position and an open, drainage position. In the drainage position, debris is collected in a waste collecting means (18) of the assembly rather than passing into the drainhole. The waste collecting means (18) is provided to be manipulated between a waste collecting configuration in which the same is typically held when in the drainhole and a waste discarding configuration to which the same can be moved when it is desired to discard collected waste from the assembly.
