Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily household waste cleaning technology, specifically a folding garbage shovel. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life, people often use dustpans to clean up litter. Specifically, dustpans are used in conjunction with brooms to sweep litter into the dustpan, making it easier, more convenient, and easier to clean up trash. Because of their small size and flexibility, dustpans can be used in almost any place in life to clean up litter, making them popular with a wide range of consumers.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN211324812U discloses a garbage shovel comprising a handle (1), a first comb tooth (6), a second comb tooth (7), and a garbage bucket (8). The garbage bucket (8) has the same structure as a regular garbage shovel body (2), but is 3-5 cm higher than the existing garbage shovel body (2). The garbage shovel handle (1) is mounted on it. The first comb tooth (6) is located on the upper edge of the garbage bucket (8). The second comb tooth (7) is installed inside the garbage bucket (8). The second comb tooth (7) is located 3-5 cm below the first comb tooth (6), but 2-3 cm ahead of the first comb tooth (6), forming a space between the first comb tooth (6) and the second comb tooth (7) to accommodate garbage scraps (5). The second comb tooth (7) is inclined forward and downward at 10-20 degrees relative to the first comb tooth (6). This garbage shovel has a space to accommodate garbage scraps, reducing garbage scrap splashing, improving efficiency, and reducing secondary air pollution caused by garbage scrap drifting.

[0004] However, in the existing technology, due to the large size of the garbage bucket, the garbage bucket occupies a lot of space when the garbage shovel is not in use, which needs to be further improved.

[0005] Therefore, based on the aforementioned technical problems, it is necessary for those skilled in the art to develop a folding garbage shovel. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a folding garbage shovel to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A folding garbage shovel technical solution includes a garbage bucket and a hand grip assembly. The top surface of the garbage bucket has a limiting groove, which is semi-cylindrical in shape. A wedge block is installed at the bottom of the limiting groove, and a connecting cylinder is hinged to the wedge block. The hand grip assembly is disposed on the connecting cylinder.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the hand grip assembly includes a cylindrical tube, one end of which is fixed inside the connecting tube, and a hand grip block is installed on the top surface of the cylindrical tube.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the cylindrical tube is detachably equipped with a snap-fit ​​fastener.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, a hand grip groove is provided on one side of the hand grip block, and a through hole is provided on the hand grip block.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, the hand grip assembly includes a support column, which is installed inside the connecting cylinder, and a movable cylinder is slidably connected to the support column.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, a fixing groove is horizontally opened on one side of the support column, a spring is installed on the side wall of the fixing groove, a fixing pin is installed on one end of the spring, and multiple through holes are opened on the moving cylinder along the length direction of the moving cylinder.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the movable cylinder is equipped with an anti-slip sleeve.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: when the garbage bucket is not in use, the connecting cylinder is rotated and the connecting cylinder is detachably installed in the limiting groove through interference fit, realizing the folding between the hand grip component and the garbage bucket. When the garbage bucket is not in use, the space occupied by the garbage bucket is reduced. Moreover, it is convenient for the user to carry or move the garbage bucket. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this utility model will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will provide a further detailed description. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of this utility model by illustrating examples.

[0021] Example 1: As Figure 1-2 As shown, this utility model provides a folding garbage shovel technical solution: it includes a garbage shovel bucket 1 and a hand grip assembly. A limiting groove 2 is formed on the top surface of the garbage shovel bucket 1. The limiting groove 2 is semi-cylindrical in shape. At the same time, a wedge block 3 is installed at the bottom of the limiting groove 2. The wedge block 3 is located close to one side of the garbage shovel bucket 1. A connecting cylinder 4 is hinged to the wedge block 3. The hand grip assembly is set on the connecting cylinder 4. When the garbage shovel bucket 1 is not in use, the connecting cylinder 4 is rotated. The connecting cylinder 4 is detachably installed in the limiting groove 2 through an interference fit, realizing the folding between the hand grip assembly and the garbage shovel bucket 1. When the garbage shovel bucket 1 is not in use, the space occupied by the garbage shovel bucket 1 is reduced. Moreover, it is convenient for the user to carry or move the garbage shovel bucket 1.

[0022] In this embodiment, the hand grip assembly includes a cylindrical tube 5, one end of which is inserted and fixed inside the connecting tube 4. At the same time, a hand grip block 6 is installed on the top surface of the cylindrical tube 5. When using the garbage shovel 1, the user can move the garbage shovel by holding the hand grip block 6, which is convenient to use.

[0023] A snap-fit ​​buckle 7 is detachably installed on the cylindrical tube 5. The user can snap the broom into the snap-fit ​​buckle 7 and then move the broom and dustpan together for easy use.

[0024] In this embodiment, a grip groove 8 is provided on one side of the grip block 6. The grip groove 8 conforms to the shape of the user's hand, making it convenient to grip and increasing the friction between the hand and the grip block 6. In addition, a through hole 9 is provided on the grip block 6, and the user can set up hooks or other items in the through hole 9 and then hang the garbage shovel in a pre-set position.

[0025] Example 2: Refer to Figure 3 The difference from Embodiment 1 lies in the hand grip component. In this embodiment, the hand grip component includes a support column 10, which is installed inside the connecting cylinder 4. A movable cylinder 11 is slidably connected to the support column 10. The user can change the position of the movable cylinder 11 on the support column 10 according to different people's heights, thus saving manpower.

[0026] In this embodiment, a fixing groove 12 is horizontally provided on one side of the support column 10. A spring 13 is installed on the side wall of the fixing groove 12. A fixing pin 14 is installed on one end of the spring 13. When the fixing pin 14 is pressed, the fixing pin 14 compresses the spring 13 and moves towards the side wall of the fixing groove 12. At the same time, multiple through holes 15 are provided on the moving cylinder 11 along the length of the moving cylinder 11. The fixing pin 14 will pass through the through holes 15. After the position of the moving cylinder 11 is adjusted, the fixing pin 14 enters into the through hole 15 and fixes the moving cylinder 11 to the support column 10.

[0027] In this embodiment, an anti-slip sleeve 16 is installed on the movable cylinder 11 to increase the friction between the hand and the movable cylinder 11.
