For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0037] Combine the following Figures 1 to 8 The technical solution and working principle of the utility model are described. The utility model provides a trash can 1, which may include a barrel body 10, a plurality of barrel covers 20 and at least one handle 30. The barrel body 10 has a garbage inlet 12. A plurality of barrel covers 20 are arranged at the garbage inlet 12, and each barrel cover 20 has a closed state that closes at least part of the garbage inlet 12 and a receiving state suitable for receiving garbage. Each handle 30 is connected to at least one barrel cover 20, and at least one handle 30 is configured to move under the drive of an external force, and drives the plurality of barrel covers 20 to switch between a closed state and a receiving state.
[0038] In this embodiment, the barrel body 10 may define a receiving chamber 13 for receiving garbage, and the garbage delivery port 12 is connected to the receiving chamber 13 so that the garbage can be delivered to the receiving chamber 13 from the garbage delivery port 12. The orientation of the garbage delivery port 12 may be set according to specific circumstances, for example, the garbage delivery port 12 may be opened upward, opened obliquely upward, or opened to one side. In some specific embodiments, the barrel body 10 may include a barrel body 16 and a middle frame 18, the barrel body 16 has an opening, the middle frame 18 is arranged at the opening, and the middle frame 18 defines the garbage delivery port 12.
[0039] A plurality of bucket covers 20 are arranged at the garbage inlet 12, and each bucket cover 20 has a closed state and a receiving state. When in the closed state, each bucket cover 20 can close at least part of the garbage inlet 12, and the plurality of bucket covers 20 also cooperate with each other to close the entire garbage inlet 12. When in the receiving state, each bucket cover 20 can form a tray or a part of a tray to receive garbage.
[0040] In a further embodiment, the trash can 1 further comprises a trash bag support seat 50, which is installed at the trash inlet 12 and is used to fix the bag mouth of the trash bag 70, and an escape channel 52 is provided between the trash bag support seat 50 and the side wall of the barrel body 10. When the multiple barrel covers 20 are switched from the closed state to the receiving state, they enter between the trash bag 70 and the side wall of the barrel body 10 from above the trash bag support seat 50 through the escape channel 52, and drive the part of the bag body below the bag mouth of the trash bag 70 to move to the bottom of the trash bag support seat 50, so that the multiple barrel covers 20 can not only squeeze and seal the trash bag 70 already installed in the trash can 1, but also cover the trash bag 70 on the multiple barrel covers 20, so that when the user puts the trash on the tray, he cannot directly observe the trash in the trash can 1, and avoids contaminating the tray, thereby improving the user's use experience.
[0041] In a further embodiment, the trash can 1 also includes a clamping frame 60, which is movably arranged on the garbage bag support seat 50. The clamping frame 60 has a clamping position and a release position. When the clamping frame 60 moves to the release position, the bag opening of the garbage bag 70 can be laid outward from the hollow area on the garbage bag support seat 50; the clamping frame 60 moves from the release position to the clamping position and cooperates with the garbage bag support seat 50 to clamp the bag opening of the garbage bag 70.
[0042] In some specific embodiments, the number of the handle 30 may be one, and each handle 30 may directly control the driving of one or more barrel covers 20 .
[0043] See also Figures 1 to 5For example, a handle 30 can drive a bucket cover 20 to move, and then the bucket cover 20 can drive other bucket covers 20 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state, thereby driving multiple bucket covers 20 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state.
[0044] See also Figure 6 For another example, a handle 30 can drive two bucket covers 20 to move, and then the two bucket covers 20 can respectively drive the two bucket covers 20 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state, thereby driving multiple bucket covers 20 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state.
[0045] In some other specific embodiments, there may be multiple handles 30 , and each handle 30 may also directly control the driving of one or more barrel covers 20 .
[0046] See also Figure 7 For example, there may be two handles 30, and the two handles 30 may respectively drive the two barrel covers 20 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state.
[0047] See also Figure 8 For another example, there may be two handles 30, and each handle 30 may drive two bucket covers 20 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state. In other words, the two handles 30 control the four bucket covers 20 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state.
[0048] In summary, the trash can 1 of this embodiment has multiple covers 20 arranged at the trash inlet 12, and each handle 30 can control at least one cover 20, so that the multiple covers 20 can switch between the closed position and the receiving position, and each cover 20 controls a part of the trash inlet 12 respectively, so that when the multiple covers 20 switch between the closed state and the receiving state, the trash inlet 12 can be quickly closed or a tray can be formed. Therefore, this method of using multiple covers can improve the opening and closing efficiency, facilitate users to quickly close the trash inlet 12 or form a tray for receiving trash, and improve the user experience.
[0049] In some embodiments, the plurality of barrel covers 20 may include an active barrel cover 210 connected to a handle 30, and a driven barrel cover 220 connected to the active barrel cover 210 through a transmission mechanism. Each handle 30 is connected to at least one active barrel cover 210, and at least one handle 30 is configured to move under the drive of an external force and drive the active barrel cover 210 to switch between a closed state and a receiving state. When the active barrel cover 210 is configured to switch between a closed state and a receiving state, the driven barrel cover 220 connected to it through a transmission mechanism is driven to switch between a closed state and a receiving state.
[0050] For example, when there is one handle 30 and two barrel covers 20, one of the barrel covers 20 is an active barrel cover 210, and the other barrel cover 20 is a passive barrel cover 220. A transmission mechanism is provided between the two barrel covers 20. The handle 30 can drive the active barrel cover 210 to switch between a closed state and a receiving state. At this time, during the movement of the active barrel cover 210, the passive barrel cover 220 is also driven by the transmission mechanism to switch between a closed state and a receiving state.
[0051] For another example, when there is one handle 30 and four barrel covers 20, the two ends of the handle 30 are respectively connected to one barrel cover 20, that is, two barrel covers 20 are active barrel covers 210, and the other two barrel covers 20 are passive barrel covers 220. Transmission mechanisms can be respectively provided between the two active barrel covers 210 and the two passive barrel covers 220. The handle 30 can drive the two active barrel covers 210 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state, and the two active barrel covers 210 drive the two passive barrel covers 220 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state through the corresponding transmission mechanisms.
[0052] For another example, when there are two handles 30 and four barrel covers 20, and only one end of each handle 30 is connected to one barrel cover 20, that is, there are two active barrel covers 210 and two driven barrel covers 220. The two handles 30 drive the two active barrel covers 210 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state respectively. At this time, during the movement of the two active barrel covers 210, the two driven barrel covers 220 are also driven to switch between the closed state and the receiving state through the transmission mechanism.
[0053] In some further embodiments, the transmission mechanism may include a gear set 40, which is respectively connected to the active bucket cover 210 and the driven bucket cover 220. When the active bucket cover 210 switches between the closed state and the receiving state, the gear set 40 is driven to operate, so that the gear set 40 drives the driven bucket cover 220 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state.
[0054] In some specific embodiments, the transmission ratio of the gear set 40 can be set to 1, that is, the active barrel cover 210 and the driven barrel cover 220 can be set to move synchronously. Of course, it can also be set to other values, which can be specifically set according to the arrangement of multiple barrel covers 20.
[0055] In some specific embodiments, the gear set 40 may be configured as a primary transmission. Specifically, the gear set 40 may include a driving gear 410 and a driven gear 420 meshing with the driving gear 410. The driving gear 410 is fixedly connected to the driving bucket cover 210, and the driven gear 420 is fixedly connected to the driven bucket cover 220. When the active bucket cover 210 switches between the closed state and the receiving state, the driving gear 410 is driven to rotate. The rotation of the driving gear 410 drives the driven gear 420 to rotate, thereby driving the driven bucket cover 220 to switch between the closed state and the receiving state.
[0056] The driving gear 410 and the driven gear 420 can be arranged on the side where the driving bucket cover 210 and the driven bucket cover 220 are close to each other for meshing. In some specific embodiments, the connection between the driving gear 410 and the driving bucket cover 210 can be a shaft-hub connection, or can be connected by fasteners, or can be directly connected in an integral manner. The connection between the driven gear 420 and the driven bucket cover 220 can be a shaft-hub connection, or can be connected by fasteners, or can be directly connected in an integral manner.
[0057] Furthermore, when the barrel cover 20 switches between the closed state and the receiving state, and the number of rotations of the driving gear 410 and the driven gear 420 does not exceed one circle, the driving gear 410 and the driven gear 420 can also be configured as incomplete gears.
[0058] In some embodiments, when the multiple bucket covers 20 are in a closed state, the multiple bucket covers 20 are closed and cover the garbage inlet 12 to close the garbage inlet 12. When the multiple bucket covers 20 are in a receiving state, the multiple bucket covers 20 are inside the barrel body 10 and closed to form a tray for receiving garbage.
[0059] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 , taking two barrel covers 20 as an example, the two barrel covers 20 are arranged at the garbage delivery port 12. When the two barrel covers 20 are in a closed state, the two barrel covers 20 are closed together to form a cover body to close the garbage delivery port 12. When the two barrel covers 20 are in a receiving state, the two barrel covers 20 can move to the inside of the barrel body 10 and form a tray for receiving garbage. At the same time, when formed on the tray, the two barrel covers 20 can squeeze and seal the garbage bag 70 pre-set in the barrel body 10, so that the user cannot directly see the garbage at the bottom of the garbage bag 70 when throwing the garbage, thereby improving the user's experience. After the user finishes throwing the garbage, the user can apply external force to the handle 30 to move the two barrel covers 20 back to the closed state, so that the two barrel covers 20 also release the squeeze seal on the garbage bag 70 at the same time, and the garbage can fall to the bottom of the garbage bag 70 under the action of gravity.
[0060] It should be noted that the above-mentioned “closing” can be that the edges of the two barrel covers 20 are exactly butted, or that the two barrel covers 20 overlap and butt. However, those skilled in the art should understand that due to reasonable manufacturing errors, when the edges of the two barrel covers 20 are exactly butted, there will inevitably be a gap between the two, so as long as it does not affect the function, this situation can also be regarded as the above-mentioned “closing”.
[0061] Further, each bucket cover 20 is rotatably connected to the bucket body 10, and each bucket cover 20 is configured to flip between the closed state and the receiving state by rotation. Specifically, the two bucket covers 20 can be configured to flip along parallel rotation axes 330 lines.
[0062] When each bucket cover 20 is flipped from a closed state to a receiving state, it can be flipped outward and toward the inside of the bucket body 10, and then the edges of the two bucket covers 20 close to the inside of the bucket body 10 are gradually closed from both sides to finally form a tray and squeeze and seal the garbage bag 70.
[0063] When each barrel cover 20 is flipped from the receiving state to the closed state, it can be flipped outward and outside the barrel body 10, and then the edges of the two barrel covers 20 close to the garbage inlet 12 are gradually closed from both sides, and the formed tray is decomposed at the same time, releasing the squeeze seal on the garbage bag 70, allowing the garbage to fall to the bottom of the barrel body 10, and finally forming a cover body for closing the garbage inlet 12.
[0064] In some embodiments, each bucket cover 20 is turned over to a closed state when the bucket covers 20 are rotated away from the bucket body 10 until the bucket covers 20 are closed and cover the garbage inlet 12. Each bucket cover 20 is turned over to a receiving state when the bucket covers 20 are rotated toward the bucket body 10 until the bucket covers 20 are closed inside the bucket body 10 and form a tray.
[0065] That is, when the multiple barrel covers 20 cover the garbage inlet 12 together, each barrel cover 20 is in a closed state. When the multiple barrel covers 20 form a tray inside the barrel body 10, each barrel cover 20 is in a receiving state.
[0066] In some embodiments, each bucket cover 20 includes a peripheral wall 230 and an end wall 240 formed at the end of the peripheral wall 230. When the multiple bucket covers 20 are in a closed state, the peripheral walls 230 of the multiple bucket covers 20 are closed in front of the garbage inlet 12, and the end walls 240 of the multiple bucket covers 20 are closed on the side above the garbage inlet 12. When the multiple bucket covers 20 are in a receiving state, the peripheral walls 230 of the multiple bucket covers 20 are closed below the garbage inlet 12, and the end walls 240 of the multiple bucket covers 20 are closed on the side below the garbage inlet 12.
[0067] It should be noted that the "front" in the above description refers to the front of the opening direction of the garbage inlet 12. For example, when the garbage inlet 12 is opened upward, the "front" refers to the top of the garbage inlet 12; when the garbage inlet 12 is opened sideways, the "front" refers to the side of the garbage inlet 12; when the garbage inlet 12 is inclined upward, the "front" refers to the top of the garbage inlet 12.
[0068] When the multiple barrel covers 20 are in a closed state, the peripheral walls 230 of the multiple barrel covers 20 jointly form a front cover body arranged in front of the garbage disposal port 12, and the end walls 240 of the multiple barrel covers 20 form a side cover body arranged on the side of the garbage disposal port 12, so as to jointly form a cover body surrounding the garbage disposal port 12.
[0069] When the multiple barrel covers 20 are in the receiving state, the peripheral walls 230 of the multiple barrel covers 20 jointly form the bottom wall of the pallet, and the end walls 240 of the multiple barrel covers 20 form the side walls of the pallet, so as to jointly form a pallet.
[0070] Furthermore, a baffle 14 is provided on the side wall of the barrel body 10 extending away from the barrel body 10. A notch 242 is formed on the end wall 240 of each barrel cover 20. When the end walls 240 of the barrel covers 20 are closed at the side above the garbage inlet 12, the baffle 14 is used to cover the notch 242 of at least one barrel cover 20.
[0071] In this embodiment, the two baffles 14 are respectively arranged on both sides of the barrel body 10 along the extension direction of the rotation axis 330 of the barrel cover 20, so that the two baffles 14 can facilitate the installation of multiple barrel covers 20 on the barrel body 10.
[0072] When the end walls 240 of the plurality of barrel covers 20 are closed on the side above the garbage inlet 12, the end wall 240 of each barrel cover 20 is opposite to the baffle 14. Therefore, a notch 242 is opened on the end wall 240 of the barrel cover 20 to cooperate with the baffle 14 to close the side above the garbage inlet 12, and this can also save material at the notch 242.
[0073] Further, each barrel cover 20 is rotatably connected to the barrel body 10 through the end wall 240. Specifically, when connected, the two end walls 240 of the barrel cover 20 extend into the inner side of the baffle 14 respectively, and then the baffle 14 and the barrel cover 20 are rotatably connected through the rotating shaft 330 fixed to the end wall 240 of the barrel cover 20.
[0074] Furthermore, since the handle 30 is also connected to the active barrel cover 210 among the multiple barrel covers 20, the handle 30 can be set on the outside of the baffle 14, and the handle 30 is fixedly connected to the above-mentioned rotating shaft 330 to enable the handle 30 to drive the active barrel cover 210.
[0075] In some embodiments, there are two barrel covers 20 and one handle 30. The two barrel covers 20 include an active barrel cover 210 connected to the handle 30, and another driven barrel cover 220 connected to the active barrel cover 210 through a transmission mechanism. The handle 30 is configured to move under the drive of an external force, and drive the multiple active barrel covers 210 to switch between a closed state and a receiving state, so that the active barrel cover 210 drives the driven barrel cover 220 to switch between a closed state and a receiving state through the transmission mechanism.
[0076] Further, both ends of the handle 30 are provided with a rotation shaft 330, and are rotatably connected to the barrel body 10 through the rotation shaft 330. Both ends of the active barrel cover 210 are fixedly connected to both ends of the handle 30, and both ends of the active barrel cover 210 are rotatably connected to the barrel body 10 through the rotation shafts 330 at both ends of the handle 30.
[0077] In some specific embodiments, the handle 30 may further include a first section 310 and two second sections 320 , wherein the first ends of the two second sections 320 are respectively formed at two ends of the first section 310 and extend to the outside of the barrel body 10 in a direction away from the first section 310 .
[0078] The second ends of the two second sections 320 are connected to the two sides of a barrel cover 20. Specifically, a rotating shaft 330 is provided at the second ends of the two second sections 320, a rotating hole 142 is respectively opened on both sides of the barrel body 10, the rotating shaft 330 is rotatably connected to the rotating hole 142, and the two rotating shafts 330 are fixedly connected to the two sides of a barrel cover 20 after passing through the rotating hole 142.
[0079] In some specific embodiments, the transmission mechanism may be a group, and the transmission mechanism is located at one end where the active barrel cover 210 is fixedly connected to the handle 30 .
[0080] In some other specific embodiments, there are two sets of transmission mechanisms, which are respectively located at the two ends of the active bucket cover 210 and the handle 30. Compared with the solution of using one set of transmission mechanisms, using two sets of transmission mechanisms is conducive to the active bucket cover 210 transmitting the driving force to the driven bucket cover 220 more smoothly.
[0081] In some embodiments, there are four barrel covers 20 and one handle 30. The second ends of the two second sections 320 of the handle 30 are both provided with a rotating shaft 330, and the second ends of the two second sections 320 are respectively connected to the two barrel covers 20, that is, two active barrel covers 210 and two driven barrel covers 220.
[0082] In some embodiments, the trash can 1 is further configured as follows: the handle 30 is used to drive the multiple bucket covers 20 to switch to a closed state when it is rotated in a direction away from the bucket body 10 to above the garbage inlet 12; and to drive the multiple bucket covers 20 to switch to a receiving state when it is rotated in a direction close to the bucket body 10 to the side of the bucket body 10.
[0083] That is to say, when the multiple covers 20 are switched to the closed state, the handle 30 rotates to the top of the garbage inlet 12. At this time, the multiple covers 20 close the garbage inlet 12, and the handle 30 can be used to lift the trash can 1. When the multiple covers 20 are switched to the receiving state, the handle 30 rotates to the side of the barrel body 10, so that the handle 30 can avoid the garbage inlet 12 and avoid affecting the garbage delivery.
