However, the environmental pressure brought about by the surge in tourists has also emerged. The problem of garbage management in outdoor scenic areas has become increasingly serious and has received attention. Traditional garbage cans can meet basic needs in flat areas, but they have many shortcomings when used in complex terrain (such as hillsides and slopes) or special environments.

[0003] For example, traditional trash cans typically use a fixed base and a vertical structure. When placed in areas with a large slope, the trash can will tilt, and the tilt angle will continue to increase with prolonged use, which can easily lead to tipping over, causing trash to scatter, affecting the user experience for tourists and increasing the difficulty of cleaning and maintenance. At the same time, tilted trash cans are also more cumbersome to dispose of, as it is not easy to throw trash directly into the trash can. In addition, trash cans in scenic areas often suffer from problems such as long trash retention time and poor ventilation, which cause the trash inside to decompose and smell rapidly in high-temperature environments, polluting the surrounding air environment. Therefore, a device is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The top of the housing 1 has a disposal port 7, which is connected to the inside of the net bag 5 for disposing of garbage.

[0024] The back plate 2 is set at a 90-degree angle to the shell 1. After the bottom plate 3 is fixed, the angle of the back plate 2 can be adjusted to make the back plate 2 vertical, thereby ensuring that the top shell 1 is in a horizontal direction and reducing the possibility of the trash can tipping over. When taking out the net bag 5 full of trash, the placement rack 4 can be rotated out from the bottom of the shell 1, which makes it convenient for staff to replace the net bag 5. The mesh diameter of the net bag 5 is eight millimeters, which not only provides ventilation but also prevents the trash inside from falling out. The fixing hook 6 at the bottom can hook the bottom of the net bag 5. In windy weather, the net bag 5 can be fixed to prevent the net bag 5 from swaying in the wind and causing the trash to scatter.

[0025] In this embodiment, as a preferred option, the upper surface of the placement rack 4 is provided with a through hole 8 for passing garbage through, and the outer side of the upper surface of the through hole 8 is also provided with a slot 9, in which a fixing ring 10 is embedded. The bottom of the fixing ring 10 presses against the top of the net bag 5 to fix the net bag 5.

[0026] Waste thrown in through the inlet 7 passes through the through hole 8 on the placement rack 4 and enters the net bag 5. The net bag 5 collects the waste and can be replaced when it is full. The placement rack 4 is equipped with a distance sensor. When the waste inside obscures the distance sensor, the distance sensor can send a signal to the central control room to remind staff to replace it, preventing waste from overflowing. A solar panel is installed on the side of the housing 1 to power the internal distance sensor. At the same time, a battery is installed inside the housing 1 to provide power on rainy days. The fixing ring 10 is pressed on top of the net bag 5. After the fixing ring 10 is engaged with the slot 9, it can be fixed in the slot 9, thus fixing the position of the net bag 5. After the placement rack 4 is rotated back to the bottom of the housing 1, the housing 1 can press the fixing ring 10 to prevent the fixing ring 10 from coming out of the slot 9. The placement rack 4 and the housing 1 are equipped with fixing buckles at corresponding positions to prevent the placement rack 4 from accidentally rotating out.

[0027] In this embodiment, as a preferred option, the top of the housing 1 is also provided with a mesh 11, and a storage box 12 is provided on one side of the housing 1 for collecting cigarette butts. The bottom of the mesh 11 is connected to the interior of the storage box 12.

[0028] Smoking tourists can extinguish their cigarettes at the mesh 11, and the ash will fall into the storage box 12 at the bottom to prevent the cigarette butt from igniting the trash in the mesh bag 5. The bottom of the storage box 12 is provided with a guide groove, which makes it more convenient to take out and put in the trash.

[0029] In this embodiment, as a preferred option, a countersunk hole 13 is provided on the upper surface of the base plate 3 to fix the position of the base plate 3, and a recessed groove 14 is provided in the middle of the base plate 3 to accommodate dripping liquid.

[0030] After the expansion bolt passes through the countersunk hole 13, the base plate 3 can be fixed in the position where it is needed. The groove 14 is located at the bottom of the net bag 5. When there is a small amount of liquid in the net bag 5, the liquid can be collected to prevent the liquid from flowing to the outside. In actual use, a drain pipe can be connected to the bottom of the groove 14 to directly discharge the liquid and garbage in the groove 14.

[0031] In this embodiment, as a preferred option, the connecting mechanism includes a first fixing bolt 15 and a rotating seat 16. A fixing nut 17 is fixedly connected inside the back plate 2. The first fixing bolt 15 is located on one side of the back plate 2 and passes through the rotating seat 16. One end of the first fixing bolt 15 is threadedly connected to the fixing nut 17 to fix the tilt angle of the back plate 2.

[0032] The back plate 2 has a hollowed-out design in the middle. When the first fixing bolt 15 is tightened, the first fixing bolt 15 engages with the fixing nut 17 inside the back plate 2, thereby tightening the hollowed-out position in the middle of the back plate 2, so that the back plate 2 clamps the rotating seat 16 at the bottom and prevents the back plate 2 from rotating.

[0033] In this embodiment, as a preferred option, the back of the back plate 2 is also provided with an auxiliary support mechanism to prevent the back plate 2 from shaking. The auxiliary support mechanism includes a connecting rod 18, a slide rail 19 and a slider 20. The slide rail 19 is fixedly connected to the back of the back plate 2. The slider 20 is guidedly connected to the slide rail 19. The connecting rod 18 is connected to one side of the slider 20 through a rotating shaft. The other side of the connecting rod 18 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the base plate 3. The middle part of the slider 20 is threaded with a second fixing bolt 21. The surface of the slide rail 19 is provided with a guide groove 22. The second fixing bolt 21 is guidedly connected to the guide groove 22 and abuts against the inner wall of the guide groove 22.

[0034] When adjusting the support angle of the back plate 2, the slider 20 can slide up and down on the slide rail 19 to adjust the angle between the back plate 2 and the base plate 3. The second fixing bolt 21 slides in the guide groove 22. The inner wall of the guide groove 22 is also provided with a friction pad, which can increase the friction between the guide groove 22 and the second fixing bolt 21. After tightening the second fixing bolt 21, the second fixing bolt 21 abuts against the inner wall of the guide groove 22, thereby fixing the position of the slider 20 relative to the slide rail 19, and further fixing the angle between the back plate 2 and the base plate 3.

[0035] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0036] 1. Use expansion bolts to fix the base plate 3 in the required installation position, loosen the first fixing bolt 15 and the second fixing bolt 21, adjust the relative angle between the back plate 2 and the base plate 3, and adjust the back plate 2 to the vertical direction (vertical to the center of the earth) to facilitate personnel to throw garbage. After adjusting to the appropriate position, tighten the first fixing bolt 15 and the second fixing bolt 21.

[0037] 2. After the internal garbage is full, the staff goes to the garbage can, rotates the placement rack 4 off the shell 1, takes out the fixing ring 10, removes the net bag 5 full of garbage, and installs the new net bag 5 on the placement rack 4. It is then fixed with the fixing ring 10. After it is fixed, the placement rack 4 is rotated back to the bottom of the shell 1, and the bottom of the net bag 5 is hooked together with the fixing hook 6.

[0038] 3. Clean up the cigarette butts and ashes above the mesh 11. After cleaning, remove the storage box 12, clean the trash inside the storage box 12, and then put the storage box 12 back in.
