[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the pressure ring 6 is made of metal, and the upper frame 5 is provided with a magnetic suction member 10. The magnetic suction member 10 is magnetically connected to the pressure ring 6 to fix the position of the pressure ring 6.

[0053] Specifically, in some other embodiments, the bin body is folded by itself, for example, by using a corrugated tube or other deformable structure, so as to adjust the height of the trash can as needed, saving storage space and improving adaptability.

[0054] Specifically, in combination Figure 5-8 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper outer side of the inner tub 2 is provided with an annular groove, and the lower inner side of the outer tub 1 is provided with a locking part 12. When the locking part 12 is engaged in the annular groove, the outer tub 1 and the inner tub 2 are locked vertically. The upper outer side of the inner tub 2 is provided with a first limiting edge 21 and a second limiting edge 22. The first limiting edge 21 and the second limiting edge 22 are arranged in a staggered manner along the circumference of the inner tub 2 and together define the annular groove. The first limiting edge 21 is located below the second limiting edge 22, and the first limiting edge 21 is provided with a guide surface 23. The guide surface 23 is used to guide the locking part 12 to engage in the annular groove.

[0055] Furthermore, in some other embodiments, the lower inner side of the outer tub 1 is provided with an annular groove, and the upper outer side of the inner tub 2 is provided with a locking part 12. When the locking part 12 is engaged in the annular groove, the outer tub 1 and the inner tub 2 are locked vertically. The lower inner side of the outer tub 1 is provided with a first limiting edge 21 and a second limiting edge 22. The first limiting edge 21 and the second limiting edge 22 are arranged in a staggered manner along the circumference of the inner tub 2 and together define the annular groove. The first limiting edge 21 is located above the second limiting edge 22, and the first limiting edge 21 is provided with a guide surface 23. The guide surface 23 is used to guide the locking part 12 to engage in the annular groove.

[0056] Specifically, in combination Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the outer barrel 1 has a first groove 11 on its back, and the inner barrel 2 has a second groove 24 on its back. The first groove 11 and the second groove 24 slide together. To enable the first groove 11 and the second groove 24 to slide together, both the first groove 11 and the second groove 24 adopt a wedge-shaped groove structure, that is, the cross-sections of the first groove 11 and the second groove 24 gradually increase from top to bottom. The groove space inside the first groove 11 is larger than the groove space inside the second groove 24. The telescopic rod 7 is located within the groove jointly defined by the first groove 11 and the second groove 24.

[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a damper 8 is provided at the opening of the upper frame 5, and the upper end of the damper 8 abuts against the flip cover 4. In other embodiments, the damper 8 is located at the upper opening of the barrel body, specifically at the upper opening of the outer barrel 1. The damper 8 is used to buffer the closing speed of the flip cover 4 and reduce noise. The damper 8 adopts a conventional structure and will not be described in detail.

[0058] Furthermore, combined Figure 10-12 As shown, in this embodiment, the telescopic rod 7 includes an inner rod 71, an outer rod 72, and a spring plate 73. The inner rod 71 can slide along the inner wall of the outer rod 72 to achieve telescopic adjustment. To ensure the stability and controllability of the telescopic rod 7 at different lengths, a spring plate 73 structure is provided.

[0059] A spring plate 73 is disposed inside the inner rod 71, and its deformable portion extends to a region near the outer surface of the inner rod 71, and is provided with a button 73a structure. The button 73a passes through the side wall of the inner rod 71 and protrudes to the surface of the inner rod 71. The outer rod 72 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 72a at corresponding positions, each positioning hole 72a being used to define the fixed state of the telescopic rod 7 at different extension lengths.

[0060] When the inner rod 71 slides along the inner wall of the outer rod 72 to the predetermined position, the telescopic rod 7 reaches a specific elongation state. At this time, due to the elastic action of the spring plate 73, the button 73a automatically springs into the positioning hole 72a of the outer rod 72, so that the inner rod 71 and the outer rod 72 are axially fixed, thereby ensuring that the telescopic rod 7 can be stably maintained at the predetermined length for a long time.

[0061] When the length of the telescopic rod 7 needs to be adjusted, the user can press button 73a, causing button 73a to retract into the inner rod 71, thereby disengaging from the positioning hole 72a of the outer rod 72. At this time, the inner rod 71 can slide freely inside the outer rod 72, allowing the telescopic rod 7 to shorten or further extend until a new predetermined length is reached. After releasing button 73a, the spring plate 73 returns to its initial state, and button 73a springs back into the new positioning hole 72a, completing the new length positioning of the telescopic rod 7.
