Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of trash cans, in particular to a plastic trash can with an anti-tipping structure. Background Technique
[0002] In daily life and various places, plastic trash cans are common garbage collection containers. However, there are some inconveniences in the use of existing plastic trash cans. On the one hand, ordinary plastic trash cans usually lack an effective anti-tipping structure. When affected by external force collisions, wind, or uneven placement positions, they are prone to tipping, resulting in scattered garbage, which not only affects environmental hygiene but also increases the difficulty and workload of cleaning. On the other hand, most existing trash cans can only be placed fixedly. When it is necessary to move the trash can for cleaning, position transfer, etc., due to the weight of the trash can itself and the lack of a convenient moving structure, it is very laborious to move, bringing a lot of inconvenience to users. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a plastic trash can that can effectively prevent tipping and has a convenient moving function. Content of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a plastic trash can with an anti-tipping structure to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A plastic trash can with an anti-tipping structure includes a barrel body. A counterweight ring is sleeved at the bottom end of the barrel body. A lifting frame is screwed at the bottom end of the counterweight ring. A plurality of spherical wheels are embedded in the bottom surface of the lifting frame.
[0005] Preferably, an anti-slip rubber pad is fixed on the bottom surface of the barrel body, and the top surface of the anti-slip rubber pad and the bottom surface of the counterweight ring are coplanar.
[0006] Preferably, the counterweight ring is a "convex"-shaped circular ring plate. A plurality of connecting screws are screwed on the outer ring surface of the top end of the counterweight ring. After passing through the top end of the counterweight ring, the connecting screws are screwed on the outer wall of the barrel body.
[0007] Preferably, a receiving groove is opened on the bottom surface of the counterweight ring. The inner ring surface of the receiving groove is provided with an external thread. The lifting frame is an inverted "convex"-shaped circular ring plate. The inner ring surface of the lifting frame is provided with an internal thread, and the internal thread and the external thread are in fit connection.
[0008] Preferably, a retaining ring is fixed at the bottom end of the outer ring surface of the receiving groove, and the inner environment of the retaining ring is smaller than the outer ring diameter of the top surface of the lifting frame.
[0009] Preferably, an embedding groove is opened on the bottom surface of the lifting frame. The embedding groove is a spherical groove. The spherical wheels are embedded in the embedding groove. When the top surface of the lifting frame abuts against the top surface of the receiving groove, the spherical wheels are above the bottom surface of the counterweight ring.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom surface of the lifting frame is provided with multiple slots.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0012] This utility model proposes a plastic trash can with an anti-tipping structure. A counterweight ring is fitted at the bottom of the can, acting as a counterweight base, increasing the overall weight of the trash can and lowering its center of gravity, thus effectively preventing the can from tipping over. When the trash can is subjected to external force, the counterweight ring provides stable support, keeping the trash can stable. An anti-slip rubber pad is fixed to the bottom of the can, increasing the friction between the can and the ground, further improving the stability of the trash can. The top surface of the anti-slip rubber pad and the bottom surface of the counterweight ring are coplanar, allowing the trash can to better contact the ground when placed, enhancing the anti-tipping effect. A lifting frame is screwed to the bottom of the counterweight ring, and multiple spherical wheels are embedded in the bottom surface of the lifting frame. When the trash can needs to be moved, the can is inverted, and the lifting frame is rotated along the storage slot using a latch, causing the lifting frame to protrude from the storage slot. Then, the can is flipped over, at which point the spherical wheels contact the ground, facilitating the sliding of the can, greatly reducing the labor intensity of moving the trash can and improving the efficiency of movement.

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a plastic trash can with an anti-tipping structure, including a can body 1, a counterweight ring 3 fitted at the bottom end of the can body 1, and an anti-slip rubber pad 2 fixed on the bottom surface of the can body 1, the top surface of the anti-slip rubber pad 2 and the bottom surface of the counterweight ring 3 being coplanar; the counterweight ring 3 is a "convex" shaped circular plate, and multiple connecting screws 4 are screwed to the outer ring surface of the top end of the counterweight ring 3, the connecting screws 4 passing through the top end of the counterweight ring 3 and screwed to the outer wall of the can body 1; in use, after the counterweight ring 3 is fitted at the bottom end of the can body 1, the counterweight ring 3 is fixed at the bottom end of the can body 1 by the connecting screws 4, at this time the counterweight ring 3 is at the bottom end of the can body 1 as a counterweight base, preventing the can body 1 from tipping over at will.
[0023] The bottom end of the counterweight ring 3 is screwed with a lifting frame 7. The bottom surface of the counterweight ring 3 has a storage groove 5. The inner ring surface of the storage groove 5 has an external thread. The lifting frame 7 is an inverted "convex" shaped circular plate. The inner ring surface of the lifting frame 7 has an internal thread. The internal thread and the external thread are connected. The bottom end of the outer ring surface of the storage groove 5 is fixed with a retaining ring 6. The inner diameter of the retaining ring 6 is smaller than the outer ring diameter of the top surface of the lifting frame 7. The bottom surface of the lifting frame 7 is fitted with multiple spherical wheels 9. The bottom surface of the lifting frame 7 has an embedding groove 8. The embedding groove 8 is a spherical groove. The spherical wheels 9 are embedded in the embedding groove 8. When the top surface of the lifting frame 7 abuts against the top surface of the storage groove 5, the spherical wheels 9 are on the bottom surface of the counterweight ring 3. The bottom surface of the lifting frame 7 has multiple picking grooves 10. When the bin 1 needs to be placed stably, the lifting frame 7 is retracted into the storage slot 5. At this time, the spherical wheel 9 is suspended in the air, and the anti-slip rubber pad 2 contacts the ground, increasing the friction between the bin 1 and the ground. In conjunction with the counterweight ring 3, the bin 1 is placed stably. When the bin 1 needs to be used as a mobile trash can, the bin 1 is inverted on the ground, and the fingers are placed in the retrieval slot 10. The lifting frame 7 is rotated along the storage slot 5, and after the lifting frame 7 protrudes from the storage slot 5, the bin 1 is flipped over again and placed on the ground. At this time, the spherical wheel 9 contacts the ground, making it easy for the bin 1 to be pushed and slid.
[0024] The usage procedure for the anti-tipping plastic trash can is as follows: Place the counterweight ring 3 onto the bottom of the can body 1, ensuring that the top surface of the anti-slip rubber pad 2 is completely coplanar with the bottom surface of the counterweight ring 3. Screw the connecting screw 4 into the outer ring surface of the top of the counterweight ring 3, passing through the counterweight ring and then screwing it to the outer wall of the can body 1 to fix the counterweight ring (it is recommended to tighten the screw diagonally to ensure even force distribution). Check that the contact surface between the anti-slip rubber pad 2 and the ground is flat and free of foreign objects, and confirm that the counterweight ring 3 is stable and does not wobble. Confirm that the lifting frame 7 is completely retracted into the storage slot 5 of the counterweight ring 3 (the top surface of the lifting frame abuts against the top surface of the storage slot). At this time, the spherical wheel 9 is suspended in the air, the anti-slip rubber pad 2 is in direct contact with the ground, and the counterweight ring 3 lowers its center of gravity through its own weight, forming an anti-tipping structure. When switching to mobile mode, slowly invert the can body 1 (mouth facing down) so that the bottom surface of the counterweight ring 3 faces upwards. Note: When inverting, hold the can body with both hands to avoid collision damage. Hold the retrieval slot 10 with your fingers (at least two symmetrical positions) and rotate the lifting frame 7 clockwise or counterclockwise. The lifting frame 7 gradually spirals downwards through its internal thread engaging with the external thread of the storage slot 5. Observe the position of the retaining ring 6; stop rotating when the bottom surface of the lifting frame 7 approaches the retaining ring 6. Return the bucket 1 to its upright position; at this point, the spherical wheel 9 of the lifting frame 7 is fully in contact with the ground. Gently shake the bucket to confirm that the anti-slip rubber pad 2 is off the ground and only the spherical wheel 9 is under force. Hold the upper part of the bucket with both hands and gently push or pull forward, using the omnidirectional sliding property of the spherical wheel 9 to move it. Note: Avoid rapid sliding or sudden stops to prevent the bucket from tipping over. When switching from the moving mode back to the stable mode, invert the bucket again, turning bucket 1 upside down, and repeat the inversion operation in step two. Hold the retrieval slot 10 with your fingers and rotate the lifting frame 7 in the opposite direction, causing it to retract into the storage slot 5 along the thread. Stop when the top surface of the lifting frame 7 touches the top surface of the storage slot 5; at this point, the spherical wheel 9 is completely suspended in the air. Stand the bucket upright and check that the anti-slip rubber pad 2 is in full contact with the ground. Gently press the top of the bucket to confirm there is no wobbling (the counterweight ring 3 and the anti-slip pad work together). Check the connecting screw 4 for looseness monthly and clean any foreign objects from the storage slot 5. Observe the wear of the spherical wheel 9 and replace any damaged parts promptly.
