Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of paint tools, in particular to a foot-operated paint tray. Background Art

[0002] A paint tray is a tool used to store and mix paints. It is usually designed as a round or rectangular shallow tray with an internal space that can hold a certain amount of paint, making it convenient to mix paints of multiple colors. When painting, the paint tray is usually placed on the ground or on a placement surface of other objects. After pouring the required paint into the tray, use a paint brush or paint roller or other painting tool to roll and apply the paint to obtain the desired color tone, and make the paint more evenly distributed on tools such as paint brushes or paint rollers to ensure that it can be better applied to the target surface.

[0003] The problem with using a traditional paint tray is that the paint tray cannot be positioned relative to the placement surface. When the painting tool rolls in the paint tray to paint, the friction between the paint tray and the placement surface alone cannot effectively limit the movement of the paint tray with the painting tool, resulting in the painting tool being unable to absorb paint evenly, which has a negative impact on the painting effect.

[0004] In order to prevent the paint tray from moving relative to the paint tray when the painting tool is rolling, the paint tray disclosed in the Chinese patent with publication number CN208542494U and patent name "Portable Multifunctional Paint Tray" includes a tray body, two paint scraping plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the tray body, and a pedal is arranged on one side of the front end of the tray body. The operator fixes the paint tray body to the ground by stepping on the pedal, which can prevent the paint tray from sliding back and forth when the roller brush or paint brush is dipped in oil.

[0005] Although the paint tray of the above structure has the effect of being fixed to the placement surface when the painting tool is painted, the foot pedal is an extended structure on the side wall of the paint tray body, and the side of the foot pedal close to the paint tray body is closed by the side wall of the paint tray body on that side. The shorter foot pedal is not easy to control the positioning effect of the paint tray body. If the operator's foot is to be able to step on the foot pedal stably, the length of the entire foot pedal needs to be extended, resulting in the length of the paint tray being extended accordingly, reducing the portability of the paint tray, especially increasing the difficulty of operation when painting at high altitudes. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the above situation, in order to overcome the problem that the foot pedal for the operator to step on and position the paint tray must be relatively long in the existing paint tray in order to achieve stable stepping, which causes the length of the paint tray to be correspondingly extended, reducing the portability of the paint tray, and especially increasing the difficulty of high-altitude painting, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a foot-operated paint tray that can achieve stable stepping even when the foot pedal is relatively short, thereby reducing the overall length of the paint tray body, improving portability, and reducing the difficulty of painting accordingly.

[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is:

[0008] A foot-operated paint tray comprises a paint tray body, the top of the paint tray body is provided with a material storage groove, the bottom of the paint tray body is provided with a foot placement groove, and a foot pedal opposite to the foot placement groove is formed on one side of the paint tray body, and the foot pedal extends to contact with a placement surface, the foot pedal is frame-shaped, and its inner ring is a step opening that penetrates the foot placement groove.

[0009] Preferably, the footrest includes a support arm and a base, the support arm has two groups, the two support arms are arranged at intervals, and one end is connected to the bottom of the paint tray body, the base is connected to the other ends of the two support arms, and the two support arms and the paint tray body and the base on the upper and lower sides form a step opening, the base is U-shaped, and its two ends are folded toward the foot placement groove.

[0010] Preferably, the two support arms are located at the corners of the outer wall of the paint tray body, and the two support arms are both L-shaped.

[0011] Preferably, the top wall of the foot placement groove is an inclined surface, which slopes downward from the side close to the footrest to the other opposite side.

[0012] Preferably, a plurality of anti-slip grooves are formed on the bottom wall of the foot placement groove.

[0013] Preferably, an anti-slip step is formed on a side of the bottom wall of the storage trough close to the foot pedal.

[0014] Preferably, a plurality of paint scraping lines are formed on the bottom wall of the storage tank.

[0015] Preferably, a flange is formed on the outer edge of the opening of the material storage trough, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs are arranged between the flange and the outer wall of the paint tray body.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are:

[0017] The utility model paint tray configures the pedal on the paint tray body into a frame shape, and provides a foot placement groove on the paint tray body that is connected to the pedal opening, so that when the operator's foot steps on the pedal opening, the contact position with the pedal moves backward. Without extending the length of the pedal, the pedal and the entire paint tray body are stably positioned and controlled, thereby avoiding an increase in the length of the paint tray body, increasing portability, and significantly reducing the difficulty of the painting process.

[0025] The utility model is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or the directions or positional relationships in which the utility model product is usually placed when in use. They are only for the convenience of simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the directions are specific directions that must be possessed and specific directions, structures, and operations, and therefore should not be understood as limitations on the present utility model.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the utility model relates to a foot-operated paint tray, which includes a paint tray body 1. The top of the paint tray body 1 is provided with a storage tank 101 for containing paint and providing a place for paint brushes and other paint tools to apply paint. The bottom of the paint tray body 1 is provided with a foot placement groove 102. The paint tray body 1 is also provided with a foot pedal 2 on one side thereof. The foot pedal 2 is opposite to the foot placement groove 102 and extends to contact with a placement surface. When the paint tray of the utility model is placed on the placement surface, the bottom wall of the paint tray body 1 located on the side of the foot placement groove 102 and the foot pedal 2 are in contact with the placement surface to form support. The overall shape of the foot pedal 2 is a frame-shaped structure. The inner ring of the foot pedal 2 is a tread 201 that penetrates the foot placement groove 102. During the paint brushing operation, the operator can align his foot with the tread 201 and then automatically The tread 201 is inserted into the foot placement groove 102, and by stepping on the tread 201 tightly, the paint tray body 1 is closely fitted to the placement surface to prevent paint brushes and other painting tools from sliding when rolling in the storage tank 101 for painting, ensuring that the painting tools can absorb the paint evenly and enhance the painting effect. The paint tray of the utility model configures the foot pedal 2 into a frame shape, and provides a foot placement groove 102 connected to the tread 201 of the foot pedal 2 on the paint tray body 1, so that when the operator's foot steps on the tread 201, the contact position with the foot pedal 2 moves backward. Without extending the length of the foot pedal 2, the foot pedal 2 and the entire paint tray body 1 are stably positioned and controlled, thereby avoiding an increase in the length of the paint tray body 1, increasing portability, and significantly reducing the difficulty of the painting process.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the footrest 2 includes a support arm 202 and a base 203. The support arm 202 has two groups. The two support arms 202 are arranged at an interval, and one end of the two support arms 202 is connected to the bottom of the paint tray body 1. The base 203 is connected to the other ends of the two support arms 202, so that the two support arms 202 and the paint tray body 1 and the base 203 on the upper and lower sides form a step opening 201. The base 203 is U-shaped, so that the center of gravity of the entire footrest 2 is close to the center position and the contact area with the placement surface is increased to achieve stable placement of the paint tray body 1, and the two ends of the base 203 are folded toward the foot placement groove 102 to avoid extending the overall length of the footrest 2.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the two support arms 202 are located at the corners of the outer wall of the paint tray body 1, so that the distance between the two support arms 202 is maximized, thereby expanding the width of the step 201, ensuring that the feet of operators with larger foot sizes can also be inserted into the foot placement groove 102 through the step 201, thereby improving the applicability of the paint tray of the utility model. In addition, the shape of the two support arms 202 is L-shaped, thereby improving the stability of the foot pedal 2 and the entire paint tray.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the top wall of the foot placement groove 102 is a slope, which slopes downward from the side close to the pedal 2 to the other opposite side. Based on the above arrangement, the overall shape of the foot placement groove 102 is closer to the shape of the foot, ensuring that the operator can obtain better comfort after inserting the foot.

[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of anti-skid grooves 102a are formed on the bottom wall of the foot placement groove 102. The anti-skid grooves 102a increase the friction force after the operator's foot is inserted into the foot placement groove 102, thereby reducing the possibility of relative sliding between the foot and the paint tray body 1.

[0032] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, an anti-slip step 101a is formed on one side of the bottom wall of the material storage trough 101 close to the foot pedal 2. The setting of the anti-slip step 101a can prevent the painting tool from slipping toward the operator's feet when the painting tool rolls in the material storage trough 101 for painting, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the painting tool during painting.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of paint scraping lines 101b are formed on the bottom wall of the material storage tank 101, and the paint scraping lines 101b enable the paint to be applied more evenly to the painting tool during coating.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a flange 103 is formed on the outer edge of the opening of the storage trough 101, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs 104 are arranged between the flange 103 and the outer wall of the paint tray body 1. Based on the above arrangement, the flange 103 allows the paint tray of the utility model to be moved by buckling the hands under the flange 103 to achieve more labor-saving transportation, and the reinforcing ribs 104 can improve the overall structural strength and reduce the possibility of damage during use.

[0035] Combination Figures 1 to 5When the paint tray of the present invention is used for painting operations, the operator places the foot against the step opening 201 of the foot pedal 2 after placing the paint tray body 1 on the placement surface, then moves the foot toward the step opening 201 to insert the foot into the step opening 201 and finally into the foot placement groove 102, and steps on the base 203 of the foot pedal 2. Since the foot placement groove 102 has a certain depth, the contact position of the foot with the foot pedal 2 after insertion can be moved backward, thereby realizing stable positioning control of the foot pedal 2 and the entire paint tray body 1, so that the paint is evenly coated on the painting tool. When painting, the paint scraping pattern 101b on the bottom wall of the material storage tank 101 of the paint tray body 1 can further improve the uniformity of painting. When the painting tool rolls to paint, it can stop moving when it moves to abut against the anti-slip step 101a, so as to avoid the painting tool from being dislocated when sliding toward the foot. When carrying, the operator can use his hand to buckle under the flange 103 to realize more labor-saving carrying.

[0036] The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle and the best embodiment of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements shall fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected.
