Tom, They technically had to be "invented & implemented" into the existing product so yes, it would qualify for a patent status.

Cizinka, It was also a book. I had the paperback of it back in the 70's.

Both inventions are still very useful today. The foot-pedal lid lift trash can is still considered one of the most sanitary ways to handle waste. The best person to improve upon a product is someone who uses it all the time.

Remember their “Beverly Hillbillies” style car they named Foolish Carriage? Big enough for the whole family. Such a cute movie and funny too.
