Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to a refrigeration garbage can. BACKGROUND

[0002] Garbage cans are common household items. With the improvement of people's living standards, garbage disposal problems are becoming increasingly serious. The first step in garbage disposal is how to store garbage. Although garbage cans are generally provided with a lid to reduce the problem of garbage odor overflowing, due to corruption and bacterial growth, the lid can only cover the odor and cannot solve the problem of odor generated inside the garbage can.

[0003] Currently, garbage can manufacturers have improved garbage cans with built-in refrigeration function to keep the internal environment of the garbage can at a low temperature, thereby reducing bacterial growth, especially for food residue, which can delay corruption in a low-temperature environment, thereby reducing odor generation.

[0004] However, in actual application, when the garbage can is opened to throw garbage, the internal environment of the garbage can is in communication with the outside world, and the heat from the outside world easily enters the internal environment of the garbage can, causing the temperature inside the garbage can to rise, and the garbage can needs further refrigeration. When the garbage can lid needs to be opened for a long time, the refrigeration demand is high, and the additional energy consumption is high. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to reduce the additional energy consumption of the refrigeration garbage can, the present application provides a refrigeration garbage can.

[0006] The refrigeration garbage can provided by the present application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A refrigeration garbage can, comprising a can body and a refrigeration device arranged at the bottom of the can body, a top cover and a transfer cover are rotatably connected to the side wall of the can body, the top cover covers the barrel opening of the can body, the top cover is located above the transfer cover, and the transfer cover is used to store garbage when the transfer cover is in a horizontal state. A rotation synchronization assembly is connected between the top cover and the transfer cover for synchronously rotating the top cover and the transfer cover.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the transfer cover is arranged in the can body, and when the top cover is opened, the top cover drives the transfer cover to overturn through the rotation synchronization assembly, so that the transfer cover is in a horizontal state. At this time, the transfer cover separates most of the space below the barrel opening of the can body from the external environment. Even if the top cover is opened for a long time, the hot air from the outside will not continuously enter the internal environment of the can body, reducing the amount of heat from the outside entering the can body, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the garbage can for additional refrigeration. In addition, the transfer cover can be used to store garbage, so that the garbage is temporarily stored above the transfer cover. After the top cover is closed, the transfer cover is rotated and inclined downward, and the garbage falls into the bottom of the can body, realizing the garbage storage function of the garbage can.

[0009] Optionally, the bottom of the barrel is provided with a water container for containing the condensed water generated by the refrigeration device, the water container is communicated with a water pipe, the water pipe has a pipe opening facing the side of the transfer cover for containing garbage, and the water pipe is provided with a water pump.

[0010] By adopting the above technical scheme, the water container collects the condensed water, the condensed water is sprayed to the transfer cover under the action of the water pump, the garbage and dirt remaining on the transfer cover are washed, the cleanliness of the transfer cover is improved, and when the top cover is opened, the situation that the odor caused by the garbage remaining on the transfer cover is overflowed is reduced.

[0011] Optionally, the rotation synchronization assembly comprises a synchronization rod rotationally connected to the top cover and a lifting block connected to the synchronization rod, the transfer cover is provided with an avoiding opening for the synchronization rod to pass through, and the lifting block abuts against the side of the transfer cover away from the top cover.

[0012] By adopting the above technical scheme, under the cooperation of the synchronization rod and the lifting block, when the top cover is opened, the transfer cover is turned to a horizontal state and covers the lower part of the barrel, and when the top cover is closed, the transfer cover is inclined downward under the action of gravity, so that the garbage falls into the bottom of the barrel.

[0013] Optionally, a clamping piece is arranged between the barrel side wall and the transfer cover, the barrel side wall and the transfer cover are fixedly connected through the clamping piece, and the rotation synchronization assembly further comprises an unlocking piece for releasing the fixation of the barrel side wall and the transfer cover.

[0014] By adopting the above technical scheme, the clamping piece enables the transfer cover to remain in the horizontal state after the top cover is opened, and the transfer cover does not rotate immediately during the process that the top cover is closed, so that the external hot air is not easy to enter the barrel space below the transfer cover, and the energy consumption is reduced; and the unlocking piece enables the rotation of the transfer cover after the top cover is closed.

[0015] Optionally, the clamping piece is a clamping block fixedly connected to the barrel side wall, and the transfer cover is provided with a clamping groove for clamping the clamping block.

[0016] By adopting the above technical scheme, the clamping of the clamping block and the clamping groove realizes the temporary fixation of the transfer cover.

[0017] Optionally, the unlocking piece is a pressing rod penetrating through the top cover, the pressing rod is used for abutting against the transfer cover, and the top cover and the pressing rod are connected with a first elastic piece.

[0018] By adopting the above technical scheme, under the cooperation of the first elastic piece, the movement of the pressing rod and the abutment against the transfer cover are controlled, the transfer cover is moved and separated from the clamping piece, and the fixation of the barrel side wall and the transfer cover is released.

[0019] Optionally, the barrel side wall is provided with a stopper, and the stopper is located on the side of the clamping block facing the barrel opening of the barrel.

[0020] By adopting the above technical scheme, the stopper makes the transfer cover not flip again after being flipped to the horizontal state, thereby playing a limiting role.

[0021] Optionally, the stopper is arranged in the barrel side wall, and a second elastic member is connected between the stopper and the barrel side wall.

[0022] By adopting the above technical scheme, under the action of the second elastic member, the stopper can be separated from the clamping block, so that the stopper no longer blocks the transfer cover, and the transfer cover can be flipped upward to further open the space inside the barrel for taking out the garbage bag or sleeving the garbage bag.

[0023] Optionally, the water containing box is provided with a liquid level sensor, the barrel outer wall is provided with an induction lamp, and the liquid level sensor is electrically connected with the induction lamp.

[0024] By adopting the above technical scheme, the liquid level sensor senses the liquid level of the condensed water and judges whether the condensed water is sufficient, so that the induction lamp is turned on to remind the user that the condensed water can be used to flush the transfer cover.

[0025] Optionally, the refrigeration device is a semiconductor refrigeration device.

[0026] By adopting the above technical scheme, the semiconductor refrigeration device has small volume and does not need refrigerant, and is suitable for refrigeration of the garbage can.

[0027] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0028] 1. The barrel is provided with a transfer cover, when the top cover is flipped open, the top cover drives the transfer cover to flip through the rotating synchronous assembly, so that the transfer cover is in a horizontal state, at this time, the transfer cover separates most of the space below the barrel opening from the outside environment, even if the top cover is flipped open for a long time, the outside hot air will not continuously enter the barrel, reducing the situation that the outside heat enters the barrel, thereby reducing the energy consumption consumed by the additional refrigeration of the garbage can, and the transfer cover can be used to hold garbage, so that the garbage is temporarily stored above the transfer cover, after the top cover is closed, the transfer cover rotates and tilts downward, and the garbage falls into the bottom of the barrel, realizing the garbage storage function of the garbage can.

[0029] 2. Under the cooperation of the synchronous rod, the lifting block, the clamping piece and the unlocking piece, the transfer cover will not rotate immediately during the closing process of the top cover, reducing the situation that hot air enters the barrel during this process, reducing energy consumption, and after the top cover is closed, the transfer cover is rotated through the unlocking piece, the garbage enters the bottom of the barrel, and the rotation timing of the transfer cover is controllable, and the flexibility is higher.

[0035] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0036] This application discloses a refrigerated trash can. For example... Figure 1 As shown, a refrigerated trash can includes a bin body 1 with a square cross-section. A trash bag can be placed inside the bin body 1 to store trash. When the trash needs to be emptied, the trash bag and the trash bag are removed together from the bin body 1. A refrigeration zone 11 is provided at the bottom of the bin body 1. A cooler 4 is installed in the refrigeration zone 11. The cooler 4 is specifically a semiconductor cooler 4. The cooler 4 lowers the internal temperature of the bin body 1, thereby reducing the growth of bacteria in the trash inside the bin body 1 and reducing the generation of odors.

[0037] The side wall of the bin 1 is rotatably connected to a top cover 2 and a transfer cover 21. The top cover 2 is located on the side wall of the opening of the bin 1, and the transfer cover 21 is located below the top cover 2. The top cover 2 can cover the opening of the bin 1 and play the role of covering the odor overflow. When the transfer cover 21 is in a horizontal state, the transfer cover 21 divides the internal space of the bin 1 into an upper space and a lower space. The garbage is stored in the lower space near the bottom of the bin 1, so the transfer cover 21 plays the role of further reducing the odor overflow.

[0038] The rotating synchronous assembly is connected between the top cover 2 and the transfer cover 21, and comprises a synchronous rod 22, a lifting block 23 and an unlocking piece. The synchronous rod 22 is rotationally connected to one side of the top cover 2 facing the transfer cover 21, and the rotating axis of the synchronous rod 22 is parallel to the rotating axis of the top cover 2. The transfer cover 21 is provided with an avoiding opening 24 extending along the radial direction of the transfer cover 21, and the synchronous rod 22 is arranged in the avoiding opening 24. The lifting block 23 is fixedly connected to one end of the synchronous rod 22 away from the top cover 2.

[0039] When the top cover 2 is closed to the barrel opening of the barrel body 1, the transfer cover 21 is inclined downward under the action of its own gravity, and the lifting block 23 abuts against the side of the transfer cover 21 away from the top cover 2, so as to realize the connection of the top cover 2 and the transfer cover 21. When the top cover 2 is opened, the transfer cover 21 is turned over with the top cover 2 under the action of the synchronous rod 22 and the lifting block 23, and can be synchronously rotated at this time.

[0040] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a clamping piece is arranged between the side wall of the barrel body 1 and the transfer cover 21. In this embodiment, the clamping piece is specifically a clamping block 3, which is located at a position of the side wall of the barrel body 1 opposite to the rotating connection position of the top cover 2. The transfer cover 21 is provided with a clamping groove 31. When the transfer cover 21 is turned over to the horizontal state with the top cover 2, the transfer cover 21 is clamped with the clamping block 3 through the clamping groove 31, so that the transfer cover 21 is fixed. At this time, the transfer cover 21 can be used to hold garbage, and covers the lower space of the barrel body 1. Not only the odor overflow is reduced, but also the external hot air is hindered from entering the lower space of the barrel body 1. Even if the top cover 2 is opened for a long time, the environment and the temperature of the garbage in the barrel body 1 can be slowed down, and the need for further refrigeration of the refrigeration device 4 is reduced, thereby reducing the additional energy consumption of the refrigeration garbage can. In addition, if the external hot and humid air enters the low-temperature environment in the barrel body 1, condensate water will be generated, which increases the humidity of the garbage in the barrel body 1 and is more likely to breed bacteria and cause odor. Therefore, the arrangement of the transfer cover 21 hinders the external water vapor from entering the barrel body 1, further reducing the odor overflow.

[0041] The unlocking piece is specifically a pressing rod 32, which is arranged in the top cover 2. One side of the top cover 2 facing the transfer cover 21 is provided with a receiving groove 33, and the pressing rod 32 is arranged in the receiving groove 33. The groove bottom of the receiving groove 33 is fixedly connected with a first elastic piece 34, which is specifically a spring. One end of the first elastic piece 34 away from the groove bottom of the receiving groove 33 is fixedly connected with the pressing rod 32.

[0042] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in the process of turning over and closing the barrel opening of the barrel body 1 after completing the action of throwing garbage, the transfer cover 21 cannot be turned due to the action of the clamping block 3, and the transfer cover 21 remains in a state of covering the lower space of the barrel body 1, so that the wind generated by the turning over of the top cover 2 cannot easily enter the barrel body 1, and the transfer cover 21 can still hinder the external hot air from entering the barrel body 1. After the top cover 2 is closed, the user can press the lower pressing rod 32 from above the top cover 2, the lower pressing rod 32 moves downward and abuts against the transfer cover 21, generating a pushing force on the transfer cover 21, so that the transfer cover 21 is separated from the clamping block 3, and then the transfer cover 21 is turned over and inclined downward under the action of gravity, and the garbage contained in the transfer cover 21 falls into the bottom of the barrel body 1, realizing the storage of the garbage in the barrel body 1.

[0043] The side wall of the barrel body 1 is provided with a blocking block 35, which is located on the side of the clamping block 3 facing the barrel opening of the barrel body 1, and the width of the blocking block 35 is greater than that of the clamping block 3. The inner side wall of the barrel body 1 is provided with a mounting groove 36, and the blocking block 35 is arranged in the mounting groove 36. The groove bottom of the mounting groove 36 is fixedly connected with a second elastic member 37, which is specifically a spring. One end of the second elastic member 37 away from the groove bottom of the mounting groove 36 is fixedly connected with the blocking block 35.

[0044] When the top cover 2 is turned open, the transfer cover 21 is blocked by the blocking block 35 after being clamped with the clamping block 3 and cannot continue to be turned over, thereby limiting the turning over of the transfer cover 21. When it is necessary to take out the garbage bag in the barrel body 1, the blocking block 35 is pulled to separate the blocking block 35 from the clamping block 3, so that the blocking block 35 no longer turns over the transfer cover 21 upward, so that the transfer cover 21 partially extends out of the barrel opening of the barrel body 1 and no longer covers the barrel body 1, further opening the space inside the barrel body 1, so as to take out the garbage bag or put in the garbage bag.

[0045] The bottom of the barrel body 1 is provided with a water containing box 41, which is located below the refrigerating device 4. The refrigerating device 4 often produces condensed water due to temperature difference and air humidity during the refrigeration process. The water containing box 41 can collect the condensed water and reduce the influence of the condensed water on the bottom of the barrel body 1. The water containing box 41 is provided with a liquid level sensor 42, and the outer wall of the barrel body 1 is provided with a sensing lamp 43, which is electrically connected with the liquid level sensor 42. When the liquid level of the water containing box 41 reaches a predetermined value, the liquid level sensor 42 controls the sensing lamp 43 to light up, so that the user can know the condensed water condition of the refrigerating device 4, and take measures such as pouring out the condensed water.

[0046] The water storage box 41 is communicated with a water passing pipe 44, one end of the water passing pipe 44 extends to the side wall of the barrel body 1 and is located between the top cover 2 and the transfer cover 21, and the pipe opening of the water passing pipe 44 is towards the side of the transfer cover 21 for storing garbage, and the water pump 45 is installed on the water passing pipe 44. After the garbage can is used for a long time, the transfer cover 21 is easy to be covered with garbage dirt, the water pump 45 is started and the collected condensed water is used to flush the transfer cover 21, so that the cleaning degree of the transfer cover 21 is improved, when the top cover 2 is turned over, the situation that the residual dirt of the transfer cover 21 causes odor overflow is reduced.

[0047] The implementation principle of the refrigeration garbage can according to the embodiment of the application is as follows:

[0048] When garbage needs to be thrown, the top cover 2 is turned over, the top cover 2 drives the transfer cover 21 to rotate, the transfer cover 21 is clamped with the clamping block 3, and the garbage is thrown to the transfer cover 21; after the garbage throwing action is completed, the top cover 2 is turned over and closed to the barrel opening of the barrel body 1, at this time, the transfer cover 21 does not rotate, then the lower pressing rod 32 is pressed, the transfer cover 21 is separated from the clamping block 3, the transfer cover 21 is downwardly rotated and inclined and the garbage is dropped into the lower space of the barrel body 1, the storage of the garbage is realized, and during the whole garbage throwing process, the external hot air is not easy to enter the lower space of the barrel body 1, the further refrigeration demand of the garbage can is small, and the extra energy consumption is low.

[0049] The specific embodiment is only an explanation of the application, and is not a limitation of the application, and those skilled in the art can make a modification of the specific embodiment without creative contribution according to the need after reading the specification, but as long as the modification is within the scope of the claims of the application, it is protected by the patent law.
