[0032] In daily life, we usually use a broom to sweep garbage into a dustpan and then pour it into a trash can. Since hair and other garbage easily get tangled in the broom, in order to avoid manually cleaning the residue on the broom, a comb is usually fixed at the mouth of the trash can to scrape the residue on the broom into the trash can. However, the existing comb is fixed at the mouth of the trash can, and when using it, the user needs to operate the cleaning tool up and down to scrape the residue on the cleaning tool, which is laborious, inefficient, and inconvenient for users.

[0033] In view of this, the present application provides a trash can, comprising a trash can body, and also comprising a scraping assembly movably disposed on the trash can body, wherein the scraping assembly is configured to scrape residues on a cleaning tool into the trash can body when the scraping assembly moves relative to the cleaning tool. For example, the scraping assembly is driven to move up and down relative to the cleaning tool to scrape residues on the cleaning tool into the trash can body, or the scraping assembly is driven to rotate relative to the cleaning tool to scrape residues on the cleaning tool into the trash can body.

[0034] The trash can of the present application has a scraping assembly movably arranged on the barrel body, which drives the scraping assembly to move relative to the cleaning tool to scrape the residue on the cleaning tool into the barrel body, thereby improving the scraping efficiency and facilitating user operation.

[0035] In some embodiments, the scraping assembly is rotatably mounted on the barrel body and is configured to scrape residue from the cleaning tool into the barrel body when rotating relative to the cleaning tool. The present application utilizes a rotational method to scrape the cleaning tool, which allows for continuous multiple scraping of the cleaning tool and also allows for scraping along the direction of the bristles of the cleaning tool to maintain the smoothness of the bristles.

[0036] In some embodiments, the scraping assembly includes a scraping member and a driving member connected to the scraping member. The scraping member is used to scrape residue from the cleaning tool into the barrel, and the driving member is driven to rotate the scraping member relative to the cleaning tool. In some examples, the scraping member is configured to have comb teeth, and the spacing between the comb teeth can be set as needed and can be the same or different.

[0037] In some embodiments, the driving member includes a first driving portion and a second driving portion, the scraping member is arranged on the first driving portion, and the second driving portion is driven to rotate the first driving portion to drive the scraping member to rotate relative to the cleaning tool. For example, the scraping member is configured to be comb-toothed, the first driving portion is configured to be rod-shaped, and the second driving portion is configured to be a hand crank connected to the rod body, the comb teeth are arranged and distributed on the rod body, and the hand crank is driven to rotate the rod body by shaking the hand crank so that the comb teeth rotate relative to the cleaning tool. For another example, the first driving portion is configured to be an L-shaped rod, comb teeth are arranged on one side of the L-shaped rod, and the second driving portion is connected to the other side of the L-shaped rod, and the second driving portion is configured to be a pedal, and the L-shaped rod is driven to rotate by stepping on the pedal so that the comb teeth rotate relative to the cleaning tool.

[0038] In one example, the second drive unit includes an operating unit disposed on the barrel and a gear set in transmission connection with the operating unit. The gear set is in transmission connection with the first drive unit, and the operating unit is driven to rotate the first drive unit. In some examples, the operating unit is configured as a crank lever, which can be located at the top or middle of the barrel for user convenience. In other examples, the operating unit is configured as a pedal, which can be located at the bottom of the barrel for user convenience.

[0039] In some embodiments, the gear set includes a gear assembly connected to the operating unit and a first driven gear in transmission connection with the gear assembly, the first driven gear being in transmission connection with the first driving portion, and the gear assembly and the first driven gear being connected via a chain transmission. During use, a user controls the gear assembly to rotate via the operating unit, the gear assembly drives the first driven gear to rotate via the chain, and the first driven gear drives the first driving portion to rotate, causing the scraper disposed on the first driving portion to rotate relative to the cleaning tool.

[0040] In other embodiments, the gear assembly includes a main gear and a second driven gear meshing with the main gear, wherein the second driven gear and the first driven gear are connected via a chain transmission. The second driven gear is configured to be the same size as the first driven gear and smaller than the main gear, so that the scraping assembly can thoroughly clean the cleaning tool.

[0041] In some embodiments, the driving member further includes a reset unit configured to reset the scraping member upon removal of the force applied to the driving member. For example, the reset unit is configured as an elastic member. In some examples, the driving member includes a pedal disposed at the bottom of the barrel and a gear set in transmission connection with the pedal, and the elastic member is configured as a spring axially connected between the pedal and the gear set. In other examples, the driving member includes a hand crank disposed at the barrel opening, and the elastic member is configured as a coil spring.

[0042] In order to improve the stability between the scraping assembly and the barrel body, in some embodiments, a connecting portion is provided on the barrel body, and the scraping assembly is movably connected to the connecting portion so as to be detachably arranged on the barrel body.

In another example, the first driving portion is provided as a connecting rod, the fixing unit includes a through hole, and the first driving portion is mounted on the barrel body through the through hole. In yet another example, the scraping member is provided as scraping teeth surrounding the connecting rod and forming an angle with the bottom of the barrel body.

[0043] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of a scraping assembly of a trash can provided in an embodiment of the present application under one embodiment. Figure 2 for Figure 1 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the trash can from another perspective. As shown in the figure, a scraping assembly 2 is movably provided on the trash can 1. The scraping assembly 2 includes a scraping member 21 and a driving member 22. The driving member 22 includes a first driving portion 221 and a second driving portion 222. In this example, the first driving portion 221 is configured as a rod-shaped structure, the second driving portion 222 is configured as a hand crank, and the scraping member 21 is configured as a plurality of comb teeth surrounding the rod 221. The trash can 1 is also provided with two fixing units 13, each of which is provided with a through hole 131, and the rod 221 is inserted through the through hole 131. When in use, the hand crank 222 is driven to rotate, and the hand crank 222 drives the first driving portion 221, i.e., the rod 221, to rotate, and the plurality of comb teeth 21 provided on the rod 221 rotate to scrape off residues on the cleaning tool. In addition, an avoidance space is provided on the wall of the trash can to reduce the space occupied by the scraping assembly. Alternatively, a gap corresponding to the scraping teeth is provided on the wall of the trash can, so that when the scraping teeth pass through the wall, the wall cleans the scraping teeth.

[0044] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the scraping assembly of the trash can provided in the embodiment of the present application under another embodiment. Figure 4 for Figure 3 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the trash can from another perspective. As shown in the figure, the trash can 1 is movably provided with a scraper assembly 2, which includes a scraper 21 and a drive member 22. The drive member 22 includes a first drive part 221 and a second drive part 222. The second drive part 222 includes an operating unit 2221 and a gear set 2222 arranged at the lower portion of the barrel. The gear set 2222 includes a main gear 31, a second driven gear 33 meshing with the main gear 31, and a first driven gear 32 connected to the first drive part 221. The second driven gear 33 and the first driven gear 32 are connected by a chain 34. A reset unit 223 is axially connected between the main gear 31 and the operating unit 2221. In this example, the operating unit 2221 is configured as a pedal, the reset unit 223 is configured as a spring, the first drive part 221 is configured as a rod-shaped structure, and the scraper 21 is configured as a plurality of comb teeth surrounding the rod 221. The trash can 1 is also equipped with two fixing units 13, each with a through-hole 131 through which a rod 221 is inserted. During use, the pedal 2221 is stepped on, twisting the spring 223. The pedal 2221 rotates the main gear 31, which in turn rotates the second driven gear 33 meshing with it. The second driven gear 33 then drives the first driven gear 32 via a chain 34. The first driven gear 32 then rotates the first drive unit 221 connected thereto, i.e., the rod 221. This rotates the multiple sets of comb teeth 21 mounted on the rod 221 to scrape away residue from the cleaning tool. When the force applied to the pedal 2221 is removed, the spring 223 releases its restoring force, which in turn causes the pedal to return to its original position. The pedal then reverses the gear train, resetting the scraper.

[0045] In addition, a clearance space is provided on the wall of the trash can to reduce the space occupied by the scraping assembly. Alternatively, a gap corresponding to the scraping teeth is provided on the wall of the trash can so that the scraping teeth are cleaned by the wall when the scraping teeth pass through the wall.

[0046] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the trash can 1 further includes a ring 12, which is detachably mounted on the upper portion of the trash can body, and a scraping assembly 2 is mounted on the ring 12. In some examples, the ring 12 is detachably mounted on the upper portion of the trash can body via a buckle 121, and the scraping assembly 2 is mounted on the ring 12. On the one hand, the ring can be removed to facilitate cleaning of the scraping assembly. On the other hand, the trash bag is fixed between the ring and the trash can body, so that the scraping assembly does not affect the removal of the trash bag.

[0047] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
