Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of trash can technology, specifically a new type of environmental protection trash can. Background Technology

[0002] A trash can is a container specifically designed for holding trash, suitable for shopping malls, office buildings, and commercial buildings. This product is widely used in commercial areas, office buildings, medical institutions, educational institutions, exhibitions, communities, public facilities, and various venues. Trash cans help keep our lives clean and tidy; they are indispensable partners, often getting themselves dirty while cleaning up others.

[0003] Existing trash can technology still has the following drawbacks. In summer, in order to prevent the overflow of garbage odors, a hinged lid is often installed on the top of the trash can. When people throw away garbage, they need to manually open the lid. After repeated use, the surface of the lid is easily covered with foreign objects, which makes people less willing to open the lid. At the same time, if people throw away a lot of garbage, there is not enough space to open the lid, which causes great inconvenience to people. If there is no hinged lid, the odor will easily spread, which will have a great impact on the surrounding air environment. If an electric opening and closing mechanism is used, the cost is high and frequent maintenance is required later. Utility Model Content
