Abstract

See full text

An in-field configurable hood and guard plate assembly for waste receptacle. The waste receptable is provided with a lid having a cutout opening through which waste can be deposited into the waste receptacle. A plurality of mounting holes are provided in the lid and arranged in a standard bolt pattern around a periphery of the cutout opening. One or more customizable attachments including in-field installable hoods and guard plates of varying configurations are attached to the lid to meet the user's requirements for both precipitation protection and modifiable openings for waste discrimination. The attachments have mounting holes positioned and designed to correspond to the standard bolt pattern on the waste receptacle lid, which enables the receptacle owner to reconfigure the hood and guard plate assembly in a variety of ways in-field using pre-fabricated parts that do not require modification of the waste receptacle lid itself, allowing the user using standard handheld tools and fasteners to add or remove a rain hood; change the opening in the lid or hood, or add or omit, features without purchasing a new lid, or waste receptacle, saving both time and cost.
