Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of trash cans, and in particular to a pedal trash can. Background Art

[0002] A trash can, also known as a waste bin or garbage bin, refers to a container for garbage. Most of them are made of metal or plastic. Plastic bags are put into it when used. When there is too much garbage, the bags can be tied up and thrown away. Some trash cans can be opened with a foot pedal. Most household trash cans are placed in the kitchen to store kitchen waste. Some families will place one in each main room.

[0003] Chinese patent CN220282404U discloses a pedal-operated trash can, whose lid is driven by a pedal. Since the transmission structure of this trash can can only keep the lid open for a long time by continuously pressing down the pedal, the functionality is low, and this fully enclosed structure is difficult to install and disassemble, and cannot adapt to environments such as transportation and use. Therefore, for this fully enclosed connection structure, the present application hopes to invent a connection structure with a notch to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of this technical solution is to provide a pedal trash can, which can connect or disconnect the flip cover and the pedal assembly by cooperating with the transmission rod and the card slot of the flip cover, so as to realize the long-term opening of the flip cover and solve the problem that the original closed structure cannot keep the flip cover open for a long time.

[0005] The purpose of this technical solution is achieved in this way:

[0006] A pedal trash can, comprising: a barrel body assembly, the upper end of which is open and a mounting position is formed at the open end; a flap, which is hinged in the mounting position through a hinged portion arranged on the lower surface, a snap-in groove is provided below the hinged portion, and the snap-in groove has a notch; and a pedal assembly, which comprises a pedal and a transmission rod, the upper end of the transmission rod is bent to form a snap-in portion, the snap-in portion is detachably placed in the snap-in groove, and when the transmission rod is in a natural state, the snap-in portion is located in the movement path of the snap-in groove, and the pedal is used to drive the transmission rod to move upward so that the snap-in portion cooperates with the snap-in groove to open the flap; wherein, when the flap is opened, the flap is manually rotated so that the snap-in portion is disengaged from the snap-in groove to achieve long-term opening of the flap; when the flap is manually rotated to close it, the snap-in groove gradually engages with the snap-in portion to achieve re-linkage between the two.

[0007] Preferably, the barrel body assembly includes: a barrel body main body; and a barrel body connecting piece, which is detachably arranged above the barrel body main body; wherein the flip cover is hinged on the barrel body connecting piece.

[0008] Preferably, a groove is formed on the main body of the barrel, and a convex block is protruding on the barrel connecting piece; when the barrel connecting piece is installed on the barrel, the convex block is placed in the groove.

[0009] Preferably, an installation groove is formed on the inner side wall of the barrel connecting piece, and the hinged part is movably placed in the installation groove.

[0010] Preferably, the hinged part is installed on the barrel connecting piece through a hinge structure, and the hinge structure includes: an installation hole formed on the barrel connecting piece; a through hole formed on the hinged part; and a hinge rod inserted into the through hole, and both ends are placed in the installation hole.

[0011] Preferably, the foot pedal assembly further includes: a transmission plate, the middle of which is hinged to the bottom of the main body of the barrel through a hinge column, and the front end of the transmission plate has a connection hole; wherein, the pedal is arranged at the rear end of the transmission plate, the lower end of the transmission rod is movably placed in the connection hole, and the inner diameter of the connection hole is larger than the outer diameter of the lower end of the transmission rod.

[0012] Preferably, an installation cavity and a limiting cavity are formed on the outer surface of the main body of the barrel; the middle of the transmission plate is hinged in the installation cavity; a part of the transmission rod is movably placed in the limiting cavity.

[0013] The prominent and beneficial technical effects of this technical solution compared with the prior art are:

[0014] 1. The flip cover designed in this technical solution has a clamping groove with a notch, and the clamping part at the upper end of the transmission rod can be movably placed in the clamping groove and can also be disengaged from the clamping groove from the notch. When the flip cover is in the closed state, the clamping part is placed in the clamping groove. At this time, the transmission rod can be controlled to rise through the pedal, and the flip cover can be driven to open through the cooperation of the clamping part and the clamping groove. After the flip cover is opened, the transmission rod can be controlled to descend, and the flip cover can be driven to close through the cooperation of the clamping part and the clamping groove. Or after the flip cover is opened, the flip cover can be manually rotated continuously to make the clamping groove disengage from the clamping part. When the flip cover is rotated more than 90 degrees, the long-term opening of the flip cover can be realized. During this process, since the clamping part has been disengaged from the clamping groove, the transmission rod will descend and fall alone. When the flip cover needs to be closed, the flip cover can be manually rotated to close it. At this time, the clamping groove can be buckled on the clamping part, and the linkage of the clamping part and the clamping groove can be realized again, which is convenient for the flip cover to be opened again.

[0015] 2. The notch of the clamping groove designed in this technical solution can avoid the problem of difficult installation and disassembly of the closed clamping groove and the transmission rod, and provides convenience during the overall disassembly and transportation of the trash can, thereby saving transportation space.

[0016] 3. The installation cavity opened on the outer part of the main body of the barrel designed in this technical solution is used to install the transmission plate, and the limiting cavity is used to limit the transmission rod. It can also cooperate with the clamping part to prevent the transmission rod from slipping. Since the foot pedal assembly is arranged outside the main body of the barrel, the installation and disassembly are relatively convenient, and the assembly can be carried out more quickly.

[0024] The following further details the specific embodiments of this technical solution with reference to the drawings.

[0025] As Figures 1-3 shown, a foot pedal trash can includes a barrel body assembly 1, a flap 3 and a foot pedal assembly 6. The flap 3 is hinged to the barrel body assembly 1, and the foot pedal assembly 6 is arranged on the barrel body assembly 1 to control the opening and closing of the flap 3.

[0026] Specifically, the barrel body assembly 1 includes a barrel body main body 8 and a barrel body connecting piece 9. A plurality of grooves 10 and protrusions 11 are respectively arranged around the circumferences of the barrel body main body 8 and the barrel body connecting piece 9. The barrel body connecting piece 9 is detachably installed on the barrel body main body 8 through the cooperation of the grooves 10 and the protrusions 11. This connection method is relatively fast for installation and disassembly, and is convenient for disassembly and transportation.

[0027] Further, the barrel body connector 9 has an open end, and an installation position 2 is provided at one end of the open end. The flip cover 3 is hinged to the installation position 2 through a hinge structure 12. The hinge structure 12 includes a hinge rod 15 that passes through both the flip cover 3 and the barrel body connector 9. There are installation holes 13 on the barrel body connector 9, and through holes 14 are provided on the flip cover 3. When the through hole 14 and the installation hole 13 are aligned, that is, when the flip cover 3 is placed within the installation position 2, the hinge rod 15 can be installed from the outside of the barrel body connector 9. That is, the hinge rod 15 passes through the installation hole 13 and the through hole 14 in sequence, and then passes through the installation hole 13 again, and is finally fixed to the barrel body connector 9.

[0028] Furthermore, the foot pedal assembly 6 includes a transmission plate 16, a pedal 19, and a transmission rod 7. The middle of the transmission plate 16 is hinged within an installation cavity 20 provided on the barrel body 8. The pedal 19 and the transmission rod 7 are respectively arranged at both ends of the transmission plate 16. Thus, by stepping on the pedal 19, one end of the transmission rod 7 can be lifted. The lower end of the transmission rod 7 is inserted into a connection hole 18 provided at the front end of the transmission plate 16. The connection hole 18 is an oval hole, which can provide a movement clearance for the lower end of the transmission rod 7 during movement. A part of the transmission rod 7 is placed within a limiting cavity 21 provided on the barrel body 8. The limiting cavity 21 is used to prevent the position of the transmission rod 7 from deviating during movement. The upper end of the transmission rod 7 is movably connected to the flip cover 3 after passing through the limiting cavity 21. The foot pedal assembly 6 is arranged on the outside of the barrel body 8, which can facilitate the installation and disassembly of the trash can and improve the assembly efficiency of the trash can.

[0029] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the side end of the flip cover 3 is hinged within the installation position 2. A hinge portion 4 is convexly provided on the lower surface of the side end of the flip cover 3. An open clamping groove 5 is provided on the hinge portion 4. The clamping groove 5 has a notch 51 with an area approximately equal to one - quarter of a circle. A clamping portion 71 formed by bending the upper end of the transmission rod 7 can enter or disengage from the clamping groove 5 through this notch 51. When the clamping portion 71 enters the clamping groove 5, it can support the flip cover 3 to open it or hook the flip cover 3 to close it. When the clamping portion 71 disengages from the clamping groove 5, the flip cover 3 can rotate freely. When a person manually controls the flip cover 3 to open more than 90 degrees, the flip cover 3 can stay above the barrel body assembly 1 to achieve long - term opening. At this time, it is convenient to set or extract garbage bags.

[0030] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, an installation groove 91 is provided on the inner side wall of the barrel body connector 9. The hinge portion 4 is movably placed within the installation groove 91. The position where the installation groove 91 is provided and the position where the hinge portion 4 is provided on the flip cover 3 can achieve an in - built installation of the flip cover 3.

[0031] As Figure 4As shown, this is the state where the flip cover 3 is closed, and it is also the natural state when the transmission rod 7 is not under force. It can be clearly seen that the clamping portion 71 at the upper end of the transmission rod 7 is placed in the clamping groove 5 and abuts against the groove wall of the clamping groove 5. At this time, if the transmission rod 7 is controlled to rise, the clamping portion 71 can support the flip cover 3 to flip upward.

[0032] As Figure 5 shown, this is the open state of the flip cover 3. As the pedal 19 is stepped on, the pedal 19 drives the transmission rod 7 to move upward, and the clamping portion 71 supports the flip cover 3 to open. At this time, the clamping portion 71 is still placed in the clamping groove 5. After opening to this state, the pedal 19 can be released to make the flip cover 3 fall automatically, or the cover plate can be manually rotated continuously to make the clamping groove 5 disengage from the clamping portion 71 to realize the continuous flipping of the flip cover 3.

[0033] As Figure 6 shown, this is the state of manually rotating the flip cover 3 continuously. At this time, the foot pedal assembly 6 has returned to the natural state, and the flip cover 3 is still open above the barrel body assembly 1. At this time, the flip cover 3 is manually flipped to make it fall back. When the flip cover 3 falls back, since the position of the clamping portion 71 is within the movement path of the clamping groove 5, the clamping groove 5 can be buckled on the clamping portion 71 again, that is, the Figure 4 initial state in, which is convenient for the next opening of the trash can.
