Eli VandenBrand -Grand Haven High School, Grand Haven MI, Instructor- Jeremy Case Imagine a world where parents don't have to worry about their children choking on or swallowing small objects. This is a parents fantasy, and it's now a reality. With the childproof bin, parents can stick small, choke hazard objects inside and not have to worry about the kids getting into it. The threads create a easy to unlock system for adults, but not kids. The bin thread technology is that like a medicine bottle, simply align the arrows and pull up, making easy access for adults, but an impossible challenge for kids. Made out of poly-carbonate, the childproof bin is rugged and sturdy making it nearly impossible for a child to crack it open. Using FDM printing will utilize the poly carbonate, and allow the part to be made accurately. The overall shape adds to the child proof aspect, with a rounded pattern, and no rough edges, letting parents know the bin is safe even in the case of a child handling the bin. The easy to open handle on the cap provides an effortless way to get the objects in or out. Now, parents now don’t have to worry about what their child is shoving in their mouth, because they know, all the choking hazard objects are safely secured in their childproof bin.
