Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste disposal technology, specifically to a trash can lid flipping mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional trash can lid-opening and transfer operations rely primarily on manual labor, which has significant drawbacks, especially in environments such as sewage treatment plants and waste disposal stations. Firstly, manual lid-opening is inefficient, failing to meet the demands of large-scale waste processing, and operators are exposed to unpleasant odors for extended periods, posing a threat to their physical and mental health. Secondly, uneven force or improper operation during manual lid-opening can easily damage the lid and connecting parts, increasing maintenance costs. Furthermore, manual transfer can easily lead to trash scattering and localized water accumulation, posing a risk of secondary pollution and impacting environmental safety. Although some scenarios have attempted to introduce mechanized equipment, existing technologies often suffer from unstable torque and inconsistent movements, resulting in significant impact on the lid and poor equipment adaptability, making it difficult to accommodate the operational needs of trash cans of different sizes.
