Description

1 TARIFF PEDAL GRIP DEPENDING ON THE BAG SECURING RING POSITION. TRASH CAN Technical Area The invention relates to the transmission of movement between a waste bag securing ring and a pedal-lid mechanism. It is related to the area of ​​mechanical trash cans to which it is attached. State of the Art In pedal-operated trash cans, the foot pedal connects the lid via a mechanical rod. can be removed. The garbage bag, however, is often attached via a removable strap at the mouth of the torso. It is held in place by a ring or frame. If the ring is not properly fitted, the edge of the bag will crack. It can detach from its place and the bag may slide towards the bucket during use. it could be. In known solutions, the bag holder loop and the pedal-lid transmission system are different from each other. It can operate independently. The invention relates to the correct placement of the bag holding loop on the pedal. a mechanical clutch that makes it possible to transmit movement to the cover connection15 It is related to the system. Providing the user with an indicator is not enough; it is the same The technical aspect is that movement should also enable comprehension. Purpose of the Invention The purpose of the invention is to ensure the bag securing ring is positioned correctly in its housing. Unless it arrives, it does not transmit the movement of the foot pedal to the opening of the lid and ring20 When seated, it automatically connects the mechanical link between the pedal and the lid. to establish. For this purpose, the pressure protrusions on either side of the ring form two separate sensing arms. moving; each of these arms releases a bridge block latch. The bridge slide, which is allowed to move when released, slides the clutch bushing on the pedal25 It positions the bridge in a way that transmits movement between the top cover connection. The status indicator slider attached to the slide shows whether the clutch is active or inactive. It shows that it is within a window. Explanation of the Figures Figure 1: General cross-section of the trash can with bag ring, pedal and lid connections.30 diagram.

The foot pedal (4) located on the bottom of the lid (2) and body (1) is shown. The lower push rod (5) is attached to the foot pedal (4). To the area near the cover joint (3). The motion-transmitting top cover bar (7) rises along the trash can body (1).25 The force transmission between the lower push rod (5) and the upper cover rod (7) is via a bushing guide. through the sliding clutch bushing (6) that moves on the rail (13). It is installed. The sliding clutch bushing (6) is on the clutch bearing (16), lower pusher. can grip the contact ends of the bar (5) and the top cover bar (7) simultaneously or they are positioned in such a way that they can be separated from each other.30 inside the bag fixing ring (8) on the top opening of the trash can body (1) The bag has a secured ring (18) where it sits. (8) Two pressure projections (9) of the ring are located in two opposite regions. Instead of the ring (8) When seated, the pressure protrusions (9) position sensing on either side of the body (1) 3 It touches their arms (10). Two position sensing arms (10) are attached to the two ends of the common bridge slide (11). Bridge At both ends of the slide (11), it is released separately by two sensing arms (10). Bridge obstacle latches (19) are left behind. Bridge obstacle latches (19), When at least one of these remains in place, the sled (11) grips in the direction of 5 It stops its progress. The ring (8) detects both through two pressure projections (9). When you press the lever (10), the two locking latches (19) are released; the bridge slide (11), slide clutch bushing (6) along the bushing guide rail (13) to the clutch position It carries. The bridge return spring (12) is released if one of the two arms (10) is released. Push the bridge slide (11) toward the released position of the grip.10 With the clutch bushing (6) in the released position, the movement of the foot pedal (4) is lower pusher the rod (5) can move; however, the end of the lower push rod (5) is the upper cover It does not grip in the direction that will transmit force to the rod (7). The gripping bushing (6) is effective. When in this position, the lower push rod (5) and the upper cover rod (7) are opposite each other in the bushing. It is held in place and the movement of the pedal (4) is transmitted to the upper cover bar (7) and it is opened15 You can lift the cover (2). Status indicator slider (14) attached to one end of the bridge slide (11), trash can The status indicator window (15) located on the body (1) slides behind it. The two separate positions of the indicator slider (14) are marked with appropriate markings or have different patterns. They can be distinguished from each other by windows. In this way, the user can see the pedal movement.20 He can see whether the signal will reach the lid without trying the lid. The pedal return spring (17) returns the foot pedal (4) to its original position when the user pulls their foot away. It returns to its position. The ring housing (18) and the pressure projections (9) its geometry requires that both sides of the ring (8) fit into place. is arranged. This situation is due to the fact that the ring is compressed from only one side.25 It makes it difficult to activate comprehension. The clutch bearing (16), bushing guide rail (13) and bridge slide (11) are inside the housing. It can be manufactured in the form of a fixed, removable mechanical module. However Friction, contamination and the mutual placement of the ring (8) and the sensing arms (10) Manufacturing tolerances must be verified on the prototype. Protection30 The issue is not the method of attaching the bag, but the ring position and the pedal-lid engagement. It is a mechanical product that connects two things. How the invention can be applied to industry. The product is used in the manufacture of pedal-operated trash cans for schools, offices, and common areas. applicable. The parts of the module that connect to the body are injection molded or 35 It can be produced by sheet metal forming. Removable ring and mechanical connections. Cleaning, durability, and safe use tests must be performed.
