Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of trash cans, in particular to a sealed trash can. Background Art

[0002] Trash cans are found in every corner of our lives. They are also known as waste bins or trash cans. They are containers for garbage. Most of them are made of metal or plastic. Plastic bags can be put into them when used. When there is too much garbage, the garbage bags can be tied up and discarded to prevent the trash can from being contaminated by garbage.

[0003] As materials become more and more abundant, there are more and more types of garbage. When different types of garbage are placed in the same trash can, the smells of various garbage are mixed together and easily produce a stronger odor. However, the existing trash cans are not well sealed, so the odor produced by the garbage will drift around and cause discomfort to people around.

[0004] The Chinese utility model patent with patent application number CN202020831047.3 records a highly sealed trash can, which has a sealing strip and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism can fasten the lid to the barrel body, causing the sealing strip to be compressed and deformed, fully eliminating the gap between the barrel body and the lid, thereby increasing the sealing of the trash can, preventing viruses from floating out of the trash can, and reducing air pollution. However, the above-mentioned trash can needs to fasten the lid to the barrel body through the locking mechanism to ensure the sealing of the trash can, which brings trouble to the dumping of garbage and reduces the convenience and practicality of the trash can. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a sealed trash can to solve the problem in the above-mentioned background technology that the existing trash can needs to release the locking mechanism before the lid can be opened when dumping the trash, which brings trouble to the dumping of the trash and reduces the convenience and practicality of the trash can.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a sealed trash can, comprising a body, a lid hingedly connected to the top of the body, a rim fixedly connected to the top of the body, a rectangular elastic ring fixedly sleeved on the outer circumference of the rim, a rectangular slot defined on the top of the elastic ring, four plug-ins fixedly connected to the bottom of the lid in a rectangular shape, the four plug-ins movably inserted into the slots, and a sealing assembly further provided on the body;

[0007] The sealing assembly includes two accommodating cavities symmetrically opened on the left and right sides of the barrel edge, and a top plate is movably inserted in each of the two accommodating cavities. A first elastic member is fixedly connected between the top plate and the inner side wall of the accommodating cavity. The sealing assembly also includes a pushing mechanism provided on the barrel edge, and the pushing mechanism is used to push the top plate to move in a direction away from or close to the inner wall of the elastic ring. The pushing mechanism includes a driving unit, and the driving unit is connected to the barrel cover.

[0008] Preferably, the pushing mechanism also includes two groups of through cavities symmetrically opened on the left and right inner walls of the barrel, the two groups of through cavities are respectively connected to the two accommodating cavities, and a rotating arm is rotatably connected between the inner top wall and the inner bottom wall of the through cavity through a first rotating rod and a first torsion spring. The driving unit is used to drive the two groups of rotating arms to rotate toward or away from the two top plates. The advantage of such a setting is that after the barrel lid is closed, the elastic ring and the side of the inserting plate can fit tightly to improve the sealing, thereby preventing the odor of garbage from drifting from the inside of the barrel body to the outside, thereby improving the reliability and practicality of the trash can.

[0009] Preferably, the driving unit includes two groups of first pull ropes fixedly connected to the bottom of the barrel cover, and the ends of the two groups of first pull ropes away from the barrel cover are respectively fixedly connected to the two groups of rotating arms. The advantage of this arrangement is that the first pull ropes can be used to reliably pull the rotating arms in the direction away from the top plate when the barrel cover is opened, so that the fitting force between the insert plate and the elastic ring can be reduced, thereby facilitating the opening of the barrel cover.

[0010] Preferably, the drive unit also includes two guide rods symmetrically fixedly connected between the front and rear inner walls of the barrel rim, and two slides are symmetrically movably sleeved on the two guide rods. The sides of the two slides that are away from each other are slidingly connected to the left and right inner walls of the barrel rim through sliders and slide grooves respectively. The tops of the two slides are symmetrically fixedly connected with two groups of connecting rods, and the ends of the two groups of first pull ropes away from the rotating arms are fixedly connected to the two groups of connecting rods respectively. The drive unit also includes two second pull ropes symmetrically fixedly connected to the tops of the two slides and the bottom of the barrel cover. The advantage of this arrangement is that by setting up the two slides, the length of the first pull rope can be shortened, and the first pull ropes can be avoided from being entangled and knotted, ensuring that the drive unit can work normally, thereby improving the practicality and reliability of the trash can.

[0011] Preferably, it also includes a accommodating cavity and a group of through cavities opened on the front side and the front inner wall of the barrel. The through cavity is also rotatably connected to a rotating arm through a first rotating rod and a first torsion spring. The driving unit also includes a horizontal plate fixedly connected between the front ends of the two slides. A group of push rods is fixedly connected to the front of the horizontal plate. A group of multiple push rods are respectively aligned with and can be inserted into a group of through cavities on the front inner wall of the barrel. The advantage of this arrangement is that the elastic ring and the front side insert plate can be tightly fitted by the arranged horizontal plate and a group of push rods, thereby further improving the sealing of the trash can.

[0012] In summary, the technical effects and advantages of the utility model are:

[0013] 1. In the present invention, the elastic ring, the slot and the four inserting plates are provided so that the four inserting plates can be inserted into the slots after the lid is closed, thereby improving the sealing performance of the trash can. In combination with the sealing assembly, the elastic ring and the left and right inserting plates can be tightly fitted together, which can further improve the sealing performance of the trash can, reduce the odor of garbage in the trash can from drifting around, and improve the reliability of the trash can.

[0014] 2. In the present invention, by providing two guide rods and two slides, the length of the first pull rope can be shortened, and the first pull ropes can be prevented from being entangled and knotted, ensuring that the driving unit can work normally, thereby improving the practicality and reliability of the trash can.
