    I find it hard to see how that patent would be defend-able in court. There have been pedal bins for about 100 years and I cannot see that patenting a link between a pedal and a flat piece to hook onto a lid would be a significant difference to an all in one unit like a pedal bin which uses the bin itself as the structural rigid part between the two.
