Trash bin

Abstract

A trash bin includes an automatic lifting upper lid and a barrel body. The barrel body includes a upper barrel and a lower barrel that are detachable. The upper barrel has an opening and a frame flange on the bottom that has one or more apertures. There is a latch member extended upwards from one lateral side of the aperture. The lower barrel has a coupling end on a upper side that has corresponding coupling members on two lateral sides and the front and rear sides. The trash bin can hold garbage as the ordinary one. The upper and lower barrels can also be separated so that the lower barrel can be held in the upper barrel with the upper lid covering the upper barrel. Thus the upper and lower barrels can be separated and stacked to facilitate packaging and transportation.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a trash bin and particularly to a trash bin that has an automatic lifting lid and a barrel body consisting of an upper barrel and a lower barrel that are stackable and detachable to facilitate packaging and transportation without taking too much space and provide more versatile utilization. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The conventional trash bins or garbage cans usually are made in an integrated manner with a fixed height. During manufacturing process, the finished barrels of different heights have to be stacked and held separately in a storage. The barrels of different heights cannot be stacked together one over another. Hence a great deal of storage space is needed. Moreover, the trash bins have to be packaged separately and moved individually on trucks for transportation or storing. It takes a lot of manpower and efforts, and is not economic justified.

Benefits of technology

[0003] Therefore the primary object of the present invention is to provide a trash bin to improve practicality and convenience. The trash bin of the invention has a barrel body and an automatic lifting lid. The barrel body includes an upper barrel and a lower barrel that can be stacked and coupled together by latching. It also can be disassembled and packaged easily.

[0004] To achieve the foregoing object, the trash bin according to the invention has a barrel body which consists of a upper barrel and a lower barrel that are detachable and may be stacked and coupled by latching. The upper barrel includes a frame flange on the bottom that has one or more apertures. There is a latch member extending upwards from a lateral side of the aperture. The lower barrel has a coupling end on an upper side with coupling members on two sides and a front side and a rear side corresponding to the latch members. By means of such a design, the trash bin not only can hold garbage like the conventional one, the upper and lower barrels can be separated, stacked and packaged easily.

[0005] By means of coupling the upper and lower barrels to form the barrel body, the barrel body can be configured in varying combinations and styles. The upper and lower barrels can be disassembled and packaged to facilitate transportation. It is more practical and versatile.
