Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of odor removal of trash cans, in particular to a trash can with a fragrance box embedded in its center ring. Background Art
[0002] Trash cans are essential waste collection devices in daily life and public spaces, and their functional design directly impacts environmental cleanliness and user experience. Pedal-operated flip-top trash cans, with their "foot-operated, no-touch" design, are widely used in homes, offices, restaurants, and other settings. These cans utilize a foot-operated switch linked to a connecting rod mechanism to open and close the flip-top lid, ensuring ease of use while minimizing direct contact between hands and bacteria, improving hygiene.
[0003] The flip-top trash cans currently on the market are prone to producing a lot of odors due to microbial decomposition and fermentation of food residues during the long-term storage of garbage in the can. These odors will accumulate inside the trash can; when the flip lid is opened by a foot switch, the odor accumulated in the can will instantly spread outward with the air flow at the moment the lid is opened, causing pollution to the surrounding environment. Especially in the high temperature in summer or when the garbage is stored for a long time, the odor problem is more prominent, seriously affecting the user experience and environmental comfort. Summary of the Invention

[0030] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] See also Figures 3 to 6 , the present invention provides a technical solution:
[0033] A novel trash can with a fragrance box 603 embedded in the middle ring 6, comprising:
[0034] The base 1 has four lower sides fixedly connected with universal wheels 101 by bolts, and a foot switch 102 is provided at the front end of the base 1 for controlling the opening and closing of the flip bucket cover 4;
[0035] The housing 2 is snap-connected to the upper end surface of the base 1;
[0036] The middle ring 6 is clamped to the top inner wall of the housing 2 via a clamping block 604 fixedly connected to the outer side of the middle ring 6;
[0037] The inner barrel 5 has its bottom engaged with the upper end surface of the base 1, and its top upper end surface engages with the lower engaging groove 602 formed on the lower end surface of the middle ring 6;
[0038] A fragrance box 603 is provided at the front end of the middle ring 6 for suppressing odors, and a box cover 7 is snapped onto the fragrance box 603 .
[0039] In this embodiment, the middle ring 6 is an annular structural component connecting the top of the outer shell 2 and the top of the inner barrel 5, and serves to connect the flip barrel cover 4. The connection is achieved by the outer block 604 of the middle ring 6 being engaged with the groove on the inner wall of the top of the outer shell 2, and the lower groove 602 on the lower end face being engaged with the upper end face of the top of the inner barrel 5.
[0040] The fragrance box 603 is opened in the middle of the front end of the middle ring 6, that is, the side where the flip lid 4 is opened, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly, and improves the convenience of use. At the same time, it is located on the side of the opening, which can more directly neutralize the odor emitted when the trash can is opened, and reduce the environmental odor emitted by the trash can.
[0041] Specifically, both ends of the box cover 7 are fixedly connected with U-shaped elastic parts 702 , and the U-shaped elastic parts 702 are inserted into the U-shaped slots of the fragrance box 603 .
[0042] In this embodiment, the overall shape of the box cover 7 is adapted to the upper opening of the fragrance box 603, and can be just embedded in the fragrance box 603. When the box cover 7 is inserted into the fragrance box 603, it can effectively block the fragrance packets, perfumes and other items placed inside to prevent them from falling out of the box; at the same time, the U-shaped elastic parts at both ends of the box cover 7 undergo elastic deformation during the process of being inserted into the U-shaped slot of the fragrance box 603, and the rebound force generated by the deformation is tightly abutted against the inner wall of the U-shaped slot, so that the box cover 7 and the fragrance box 603 form a stable snap-fit fit.
[0043] Specifically, the upper end surface of the U-shaped elastic portion 702 of the box cover 7 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 703 , and the limiting block 703 is clamped with the edges on both sides of the upper end surface of the fragrance box 603 .
[0044] The limiting blocks 703 are located outside the fragrance box 603. When the box cover 7 is fully inserted into the fragrance box 603, the limiting blocks 703 are just engaged with the edges on both sides of the upper end surface of the fragrance box 603, so that the box cover 7 is accurately limited above the fragrance box 603, avoiding excessive insertion of the box cover 7 into the box; at the same time, since the limiting blocks 703 protrude from the outside of the fragrance box 603, the user can directly squeeze the limiting blocks 703 on both sides inward, and the limiting blocks 703 drive the U-shaped elastic part to deform inward, so that the U-shaped elastic part is disengaged from the U-shaped slot, thereby easily removing the box cover 7 from the fragrance box 603, simplifying the disassembly operation and facilitating the replacement of the internal fragrance items.
[0045] Specifically, the upper end surface of the middle ring 6 is fixedly connected with an upper clamping plate 601 , and the upper clamping plate 601 is clamped and matched with the inner wall of the lower end surface of the flip barrel cover 4 .
[0046] Specifically, the upper end surface of the shell 2 is snap-fitted to the outer wall of the lower snap-fit groove 602 on the lower end surface of the middle ring 6 .
[0047] Specifically, a through hole 704 is formed on the upper end surface of the box cover 7 , and the through hole 704 passes through the box cover 7 and reaches one side of the fragrance box 603 for fragrance diffusion.
[0048] Specifically, an annular positioning groove is provided on the upper end surface of the base 1 , and the bottom outer wall of the inner barrel 5 is adapted to be engaged with the annular positioning groove to limit the horizontal displacement of the inner barrel 5 .
[0049] Example 2:
[0050] See also Figures 1 to 2 , the present invention provides a technical solution:
[0051] Specifically, a foot switch 102 is provided at the front end of the base 1 for controlling the opening and closing of the flip bucket cover 4.
[0052] Specifically, a sealing gasket is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the flip bucket cover 4. When the flip bucket cover 4 is closed, the sealing gasket fits tightly with the upper clamping plate 601 of the middle ring 6 to reduce the leakage of odor.
[0053] The flip bucket cover 4 is connected to the rotating hinge 3. The specific method of controlling the flip of the flip bucket cover 4 with the help of the foot switch 102 is common knowledge in this field and has been disclosed by the existing technology. Its core is to drive the connecting rod by stepping on the foot switch 102, so that the flip bucket cover 4 can complete the opening and closing action around the rotating hinge 3. The specific structure and transmission principle of this part will not be repeated here.
[0054] The fragrance box 603 emits fragrance through the through hole 704 above the box cover 7. When the foot switch 102 is stepped on to open the flip bucket cover 4, the air in the bucket generates an upward airflow as the bucket cover flips. The airflow will drive the fragrance in the fragrance box 603 to diffuse through the through hole 704 to the trash can opening and surrounding areas. And because the fragrance box 603 is located at the front end of the middle ring 6 and close to the opening, at the moment the flip bucket cover 4 is opened, the emitted fragrance can quickly act on the bacterial odor that may overflow when the inner bucket 5 is exposed, forming an effective inhibition, reducing the impact of the odor on the external environment, and when the flip bucket cover 4 is closed, the sealing gasket fits with the card plate 601 on the middle ring 6, and the fragrance continues to be emitted, further maintaining the freshness of the bucket and the surrounding environment.
[0055] When the present invention is in use, a fragrance bag or perfume is placed into the fragrance box 603, and the box cover 7 is embedded in the fragrance box 603. The U-shaped elastic part is connected with the U-shaped slot and the limit block 703 is used to fix it. During use, the foot switch 102 at the front end of the base 1 is stepped on to drive the flip bucket cover 4 to open around the rotating hinge 3. At this time, the upwelling airflow generated by opening the flip bucket cover 4 drives the fragrance in the fragrance box 603 to diffuse through the through hole 704 of the box cover 7, thereby suppressing odor; releasing the foot switch 102, the flip bucket cover 4 is closed, and its inner wall sealing gasket is tightly fitted with the card plate 601 on the middle ring 6, thereby reducing the leakage of odor.
[0056] If you need to replace the scented item, squeeze the limit block 703 inward to deform the U-shaped elastic part out of the slot, and then take out the box cover 7 to replace it. The overall installation and use are convenient, and can effectively keep the environment around the trash can fresh.
[0057] The remaining undescribed parts of the present invention may be the same as the prior art, or are well-known technologies, or can be implemented by using the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0058] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
