A waste container (20) provides at least one protrusion (36) spaced below a lip (24) extending radially outwardly from an upper edge of the waste container. The at least one protrusion is spaced below the lip to permit a gripper (34) from an automatic lifter to grasp the waste container between the at least one protrusion and the upper lip. The at least one protrusion may be a plurality of triangular shaped bosses formed midway between the upper edge and lower edge of the waste container. Alternatively, the at least one protrusion may be a base portion (76) which extends radially outwardly at a lower edge of the waste container. The at least one protrusion prevents the waste container from slipping completely through the grippers while the waste container is inverted while emptying the contents into a truck.
L'invention porte sur une poubelle (20) comportant au moins une protubérance (36) disposée sous le rebord (24) saillant radialement du bord supérieur de la poubelle, une telle protubérance, distante du rebord, permettant au préhenseur (34) d'un élévateur automatique de saisir la poubelle entre la protubérance et le rebord supérieur de la poubelle. En variante la protubérance peut être une partie de la base et s'étendre radialement vers l'extérieur depuis le bord inférieur de la poubelle. Ces protubérances empêchent la poubelle de glisser complètement dans le préhenseur quand il la retourne pour la vider dans un camion de voirie.
