A side-turning pedal garbage can

Abstract

This invention discloses a side-tipping foot pedal trash can. One end of the lid is hinged to a lid seat. A foot pedal seat is located below the lid seat, and the bottom of the trash can body is hinged to the foot pedal seat. The trash can body also has a side-tipping base. A speed-increasing linkage is rotatably mounted on both sides of the lid seat, with one side of the linkage connected to the lid. A foot pedal is installed at one end of a V-shaped rod. The middle portion of the V-shaped rod is hinged to the foot pedal seat, and the other end of the V-shaped rod has two opening linkages. The two opening linkages can move vertically, with their upper ends abutting against the speed-increasing linkage. When the foot pedal is pressed down, the V-shaped rod drives the two opening linkages upward, and the upper ends of the opening linkages push the speed-increasing linkage on the lid, opening the lid. As the opening linkages continue to move upward, they drive the trash can body to tilt in the opposite direction to the lid's rotation direction. This invention achieves automatic opening of the trash can lid and simultaneous tilting of the trash can body in the opposite direction by stepping on the foot pedal, making it easier to dispose of trash.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical supplies and equipment technology, specifically to a side-tipping pedal trash can. Background Technology

[0002] Existing medical carts typically have a trash can attached to the side, but these trash cans either lack lids or require manual opening, making them inconvenient to use. Chinese patent CN105173486B discloses a foot-operated trash can for medical carts, which automatically opens the lid using a foot pedal and uses a gas spring to control the opening and closing speed, achieving stable opening and closing of the lid. The operator can open and close the lid automatically without manual operation. However, during this process, the trash can body remains stationary, and the angle between the opening and the lid is limited, requiring a specific angle to dispose of medical waste. Therefore, a side-tilting foot-operated trash can is proposed, where the trash can body can tilt in the opposite direction when the lid is opened, making it easy to operate. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the present invention provides a side-tipping trash can where the trash can body can tilt in the opposite direction when the cover is opened, and which is convenient to operate. To achieve the above objective, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0004] A side-tipping pedal trash can; comprising a trash can body and a lid, and further comprising a V-shaped rod, an outward-tipping linkage II, a lid seat and a pedal seat;

[0005] The bucket lid seat is vertically mounted on the fixed platform; the pedal seat is located below the bucket lid seat;

[0006] The bottom of the trash can body is hinged to the pedal seat, and a side-tipping seat is provided on one side wall of the trash can body; one end of the lid is hinged to the lid seat.

[0007] A pedal is installed at one end of the V-shaped rod; the middle part of the V-shaped rod is hinged to the pedal seat, and two opening links are arranged parallel to each other at the other end of the V-shaped rod; the two opening links can move in the vertical direction, and the upper end of the opening links abuts against the speed-increasing link of the bucket lid.

[0008] One end of the outward-folding connecting rod II is hinged to the side-folding bucket seat, and the other end is hinged to one end of the outward-folding connecting rod I; the other end of the outward-folding connecting rod I is hinged to the bucket lid seat, and the middle part of the outward-folding connecting rod I is provided with an arc-shaped through groove that can accommodate the sliding of the moving column; one end of the moving column is located on the opening connecting rod, and the other end is located in the arc-shaped through groove of the outward-folding connecting rod I.

[0009] When the pedal is pressed down, the V-shaped rod drives the two opening linkages to move upward. The upper end of the opening linkage moves along the speed-increasing linkage on the lid, and the lid opens. The moving column on the opening linkage moves along the arc-shaped through groove of the outward-folding linkage I, pushing the outward-folding linkage I to drive the outward-folding linkage II to rotate, thus tilting the trash can body.

[0010] Preferably, the two opening links are respectively connected to one end of the return spring and the damping gas spring, the other end of the return spring is mounted on the pedal seat; the other end of the damping gas spring is mounted on the pedal seat.

[0011] Preferably, both opening levers are connected to their respective return springs and damping gas springs via their respective transition posts.

[0012] Preferably, a reducing shaft seat is installed on the fixed platform, and a torsion spring is installed on the reducing shaft of the reducing shaft seat; one end of the torsion spring abuts against the reducing shaft seat, and the other end is pressed onto the barrel lid.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0014] 1. This invention enables the trash can lid to open automatically by stepping on a foot pedal, while simultaneously tilting the trash can body in the opposite direction to widen the angle between the lid and the body, making it easier to dispose of trash and providing convenient operation;

[0015] 2. By setting a locking component that can lock the lid and the body of the trash can at the same time, when the pedal is pressed down, the linkage is opened upward, and the locking component locks the lid and the body of the trash can. When the pedal is pressed down again, the locking component releases the lid and the body of the trash can, thus ensuring a certain amount of time to dispose of trash. It is easy to operate and has a clever design.

[0016] 3. The speed-increasing linkage has a relatively steep inclined surface. The upper end of the opening linkage abuts against the inclined surface of the speed-increasing linkage. When the opening linkage moves upward, it pushes the speed-increasing linkage, thereby causing the lid to open quickly at a large angle, ensuring that the lid and the garbage can body do not interfere with each other during the flipping motion.

[0017] 4. Automatic reset is achieved by using a reset spring to provide power for the opening linkage to move down and reset the trash can body;

[0018] 5. By using a damping gas spring to control the opening and closing speed of the lid, stable opening and closing of the lid is achieved, and automatic reset is realized. At the same time, a torsion spring installed on the shaft controls the opening speed and angle of the lid. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0029] Example 1:

[0030] Combination Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a side-tipping pedal trash can includes a trash can body 1 and a lid 2. One end of the lid 2 is hinged to a lid seat 11 via a first hinge 15. The lid seat 11 is vertically mounted on a fixed platform 13. A pedal seat 7 is provided below the lid seat 11. The bottom end of the trash can body 1 is hinged to the pedal seat 7 via a second hinge 16. Side-tipping seats 5 are provided on both sides of the trash can body 1. It also includes a speed-increasing linkage 17 and a V-shaped rod 10.

[0031] A pedal 6 is installed at one end of the V-shaped rod 10; the middle part of the V-shaped rod 10 is hinged to the pedal seat 7, and two opening links 9 are arranged parallel to each other at the other end of the V-shaped rod 10; the two opening links 9 can move in the vertical direction, and the upper end of the opening link 9 abuts against the speed-increasing link 17.

[0032] The speed-increasing connecting rod 17 is rotatably mounted on both sides of the barrel lid seat 11, and one side of the speed-increasing connecting rod 17 is connected to the barrel lid 2; for example Figures 4-5 As shown, the speed-increasing linkage 17 has a relatively steep inclined surface. The upper end of the opening linkage 9 abuts against the inclined surface of the speed-increasing linkage 17. When the opening linkage 9 moves upward, it pushes the speed-increasing linkage 17, thereby causing the lid 2 to open quickly at a large angle. This ensures that the lid 2 and the garbage can body 1 do not interfere with each other during their flipping motion.

[0033] When the pedal 6 is pressed down, the V-shaped rod 10 drives the two opening linkages 9 to move upward. The opening linkages 9 push the speed-increasing linkage 17 on the lid 2 to rotate, and the lid 2 opens. As the opening linkages 9 continue to move upward, they drive the trash can body 1 to tilt in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the lid 2.

[0034] Example 2:

[0035] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to enable the opening linkage 9 to both drive the lid 2 to open and drive the trash can body 1 to tilt in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the lid 2 during the upward movement of the opening linkage 9, the present invention also includes two sets of linkage mechanisms.

[0036] A movable column 901 is installed on the opening linkage 9;

[0037] Two sets of linkage mechanisms are respectively installed on both sides of the two opening linkages 9; each set of linkage mechanisms includes outward flip linkage I3 and outward flip linkage II4;

[0038] One end of the outward-folding connecting rod II4 is hinged to the corresponding side-folding bucket seat 5, and the other end is hinged to one end of the corresponding outward-folding connecting rod I3; the other end of the outward-folding connecting rod I3 is hinged to one end of the bucket lid seat 11, and the middle part of the outward-folding connecting rod I3 is provided with an arc-shaped through groove 301 that can accommodate the sliding of the moving column 901; the other end of the moving column 901 is located in the arc-shaped through groove 301 of the corresponding outward-folding connecting rod I3;

[0039] When the pedal 6 is pressed down, the V-shaped rod 10 drives the two opening connecting rods 9 to move upward. The upper end of the opening connecting rod 9 moves along the speed-increasing connecting rod 17 on the lid 2, and the lid 2 opens. The moving column 901 on the opening connecting rod 9 moves along the arc-shaped through groove 301 of the outward flip connecting rod I3, which pushes the outward flip connecting rod I3 to drive the outward flip connecting rod II4 to rotate, so that the garbage can body 1 tilts in the opposite direction to the rotation direction of the lid 2.

[0040] Example 3:

[0041] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to ensure a certain time for disposing of garbage, the present invention also includes a locking assembly for locking the lid 2 and the garbage bin body 1; when the pedal 6 is pressed down, the opening linkage 9 is moved up, and the locking assembly locks the lid 2 and the garbage bin body 1; when the pedal 6 is pressed down again, the locking assembly releases the lid 2 and the garbage bin body 1.

[0042] The locking assembly uses a push-touch ball 20, which includes a push-touch ball body 19 and a ball 20. The push-touch ball body 19 is installed below the fixed platform 13, and the ball 20 is installed on the opening linkage 9. When the pedal 6 is pressed, the opening linkage 9 moves upward until the ball 20 is locked by the push-touch ball body 19, keeping the opening linkage 9 stationary and keeping the trash can body 1 and lid 2 in an outward-facing state to ensure time for disposing of trash. When the pedal 6 is pressed again, the opening linkage 9 moves slightly upward until the ball 20 is unlocked. The opening linkage 9 then moves downward under the action of the return spring 12, and the lid 2 and trash can body 1 return to their closed positions. (How to use the push-touch ball 20: Push the ball 20 once, and the push-touch ball body 19 locks the ball 20. Push the ball 20 again (a few millimeters of travel), and the push-touch ball body 19 releases the ball 20. This process is repeated.)

[0043] Example 4:

[0044] Based on Embodiment 1, the present invention includes the two sets of linkage mechanisms and locking components described above. The present invention also includes a reset spring 12 and a damping gas spring 8.

[0045] Two opening linkages 9 are respectively connected to one end of the return spring 12 and the damping gas spring 8. The other end of the return spring 12 is mounted on the pedal seat 7; the other end of the damping gas spring 8 is mounted on the pedal seat 7. The damping gas spring 8 is used to slow down the opening and closing speed of the lid 2. The damping gas spring 8 makes opening relatively easy and closing with greater damping, so the lid 2 resets very slowly, reducing the noise of the trash can lid 2 closing. The return spring 12 provides power for the opening linkage 9 to move down and reset the trash can body 1.

[0046] Both opening levers are connected to their respective return springs 12 and damping gas springs 8 via their respective transition posts 14.

[0047] A hinge seat is installed on the fixed platform 13, and a torsion spring 18 is installed on the hinge shaft of the hinge seat. One end of the torsion spring 18 abuts against the hinge seat, and the other end is pressed onto the bucket lid 2. In order to prevent the bucket lid 2 from opening too quickly, the resistance of the torsion spring 18 is used to reduce the noise caused by vibration when the bucket lid 2 is opened. The torsion spring 18 helps the bucket lid 2 overcome the force of the damping gas spring 8 below to close.

[0048] like Figures 1-9 As shown, the working principle and process of this invention are as follows:

[0049] The initial closed state is as follows Figure 3 As shown, when you press down on pedal 6, as... Figure 7As shown, this causes the two opening linkages 9 to move upwards. The upper end of the opening linkage 9 pushes the speed-increasing linkage 17 on the lid 2 to rotate, thereby pushing the lid 2 to rotate rapidly counterclockwise around the first hinge 15 (see reference). Figure 8 This allows the bucket lid 2 to open. As the opening linkage 9 continues to move upward, the moving column 901 moves along the arc-shaped through groove 301 of the outward-folding linkage I3, thereby pushing the outward-folding linkage I3 to rotate counterclockwise (comparison). Figure 1 and Figure 8 and Figure 9 Then, through the outward-folding linkage II4, the trash can body 1 rotates clockwise along the second hinge 16, achieving an outward tilt of the trash can body 1 and the lid 2 in opposite directions. When the pedal 6 is pressed down to a certain extent, until the contact ball 20 is pushed and locked by the contact ball body 19, the opening linkage 9 remains stationary, and the trash can body 1 and lid 2 remain in the outward-folded state, ensuring the time for disposing of trash. Pressing the pedal 6 down again, the opening linkage 9 moves slightly upward until the contact ball 20 unlocks. Under the action of the return spring 12, the opening linkage 9 moves downward, and the moving column 901 moves in the opposite direction within the arc-shaped through groove 301, thereby causing the trash can body 1 to rotate counterclockwise around the second hinge 16. Then, the lid 2 resets and covers the trash can body 1. Due to the damping effect of the damping gas spring 8, the reset process of the lid 2 is very slow, reducing the speed of opening and closing the lid 2, and at the same time reducing the noise of the trash can lid 2 closing, thus completing the trash disposal.
