Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to daily necessities, in particular to a cover opening structure of a garbage can. Background Art
[0002] Trash cans are commonly used daily necessities and are very commonly used in homes, hotels or public areas. For the sake of hygiene, most trash cans are currently equipped with flaps, which need to be opened when throwing garbage. There are also a variety of ways to open the flaps, including pedals, induction, pressing the flap or pure manual operation. The induction opening method occupies the vast majority of household trash cans because it is convenient and hygienic. At present, the induction opening structure generally sets a pivot on one side of the flap, and the opening drive mechanism drives the pivot to rotate through a speed reduction mechanism to open and close the lid. Since the pivot is set on one side of the flap, the flap will flip up when opening the lid and will block one side of the delivery port. Considering the opening speed of the flap, the flap area should not be too large. Therefore, the current induction flap trash can has the problems of slow lid opening speed, small garbage delivery port, much higher than the barrel body after the flap is opened, and blocking the garbage delivery port on one side.

A driving groove 361 is set in the middle of the driving rod 36, and the output end of the driving cam or the driving crank 43 is accommodated in the driving groove 361; the reciprocating motion of the driving rod 36 leads the left and right flaps 3 to rotate in opposite directions through the rotating part.
[0062] During operation, the driving motor 41 drives the driving rod 36 to move up and down through the driving cam or the driving crank 43, and the driving rod 36 drives the flap to flip through the crank or cam 32, thereby realizing the opening and closing actions of the cover. This structure has good versatility and can be used in conjunction with driving devices of different structures.
[0063] like Figure 9-21 As shown, in addition to the above-mentioned driving method by the driving motor, the present invention can also be driven by a manual button:
[0064] The driving device is a button driving device, which includes a button 6 and a driving block 7. The driving block 7 is arranged on the base 2 through a guide mechanism.

[0066] A buffer rod device 11 is also provided between the button 6 and the driving block 7; the guiding mechanism comprises a longitudinally arranged guiding rod 35, a guiding hole is provided on the driving block 7, and the driving block 7 is arranged on the guiding rod 35 through the guiding hole sleeve.
[0067] When opening the lid, the finger presses the driving block 7, and the driving block moves downward to drive the rotating arm 38 to rotate. The flip cover flips over with the rotating arm and opens the barrel cover. When the driving block 7 moves from the initial position to the locked position, the latch 82 on the elastic locking block 81 is engaged with the locking groove 71 under the action of the spring 83 to lock the driving block 7, ensuring that the flip cover remains in the open state; when closing the lid, press the unlocking button 61, and the unlocking button 61 pushes the elastic locking block 81 to the outside through the inclined structure 62, and the latch 84 disengages from the locking groove 7. The driving block 7 rises under the action of the spring, and at the same time drives the flip cover to reset and close the barrel cover through the rotating arm 38. The present invention is also provided with a buffer rod device 11 between the button 6 and the driving block 7. During the resetting process, the buffer rod device 11 plays a buffering role, and the driving block 7 slowly rises, so that the flip cover slowly closes.

[0069] The above structure adopts a single button structure, and the present invention also adopts a driving structure of double buttons and double drive blocks, the button 6 includes a cover opening button 63 and a cover closing button 64, the drive block 7 includes a cover opening drive block 73 and a cover closing drive block 74, the cover opening button 63 cooperates with the cover opening drive block 73, and the cover closing button 64 cooperates with the cover closing drive block 74, the cover opening drive block 73 and the cover closing drive block 74 are both arranged on the base 2 through a guide mechanism, the rotating arm 38 has two input ends, namely, a cover opening input end 381 and a cover closing input end 382, the cover opening input end 381 and the cover closing input end 382 are respectively movably connected with the output ends of the cover opening drive block 73 and the cover closing drive block 74; the cover opening input end 381 and the cover closing input end 382 are symmetrically distributed; a movable groove is provided on the output end of the cover opening drive block 73 or the cover opening input end 381, and a driving pin is provided at the cover opening input end 381 or the output end of the cover opening drive block 73, and the driving pin is accommodated in the movable groove.
[0070] Since the cover opening input end 381 and the cover closing input end 382 at both ends of the rotating arm 38 are symmetrically distributed, the two groups of buttons and drive blocks are linked when in use. When the cover opening button 63 and the cover opening drive block 73 are pressed down, the cover closing button 64 and the cover closing drive block 74 automatically rise. This structure can eliminate the need for a return spring.
[0071] like Figure 22-27 As shown, the driving device of the present invention can also adopt a foot-operated driving device, and the driving device is a foot-operated driving device, and the foot-operated driving device includes a foot pedal 91, a driving push rod 92 and a driving block 7. The foot pedal 91 is hinged at the bottom of the barrel body 1, and the driving block 7 is arranged on the seat body 2 through a guide mechanism. The driving block 7 is connected to the output end of the foot pedal through the driving push rod 92, and the output end of the driving block 7 is connected to the free end of the rotating connection part through a transmission mechanism.
[0072] The free end of the rotating connection part 31 is fixedly connected with a rotating arm 38. Two input ends are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the driving block. The input end of the rotating arm is movably connected to the output end of the driving block.

[0074] The driving method of the foot-operated driving device is similar to that of the button-operated device, except that it lacks a locking mechanism. Its operation process is as follows: when opening the cover, step on the foot pedal 91 with your foot, and the output end of the foot pedal 91 will tilt upward to push the driving push rod 92 upward. The driving push rod 92 will push the driving block 7 upward and compress the reset spring. When the driving block 7 moves upward, the flap 3 is opened synchronously through the rotating arms 38 at both ends; when the foot on the foot pedal 91 is removed, the driving block 7 moves downward under the action of the reset spring, and the buffer push rod 11 will be compressed during the downward movement. The buffer push rod 11 causes the driving block 7 to move downward slowly, thereby causing the flap to close slowly, thereby achieving a buffering effect.
[0075] The driving rod or driving block of the present invention drives the rotating part or the rotating arm to rotate, and then the opening and closing of the barrel cover are realized by the rotation of the rotating part or the rotating arm.

Since the free end is far away from the flap body, the flap will sink into the garbage delivery port when it is opened to both sides, and the barrel cover will not hit the hands when the garbage is delivered. It has the characteristics of novel structure, reliability and good versatility.
