[0002] Maintenance trolleys primarily provide convenience for maintenance personnel when inspecting, repairing, and maintaining equipment. They can be used to transport various items needed for maintenance, such as tools, spare parts, and testing equipment, allowing maintenance personnel to easily move and retrieve items within the work area, thus improving maintenance efficiency. For example, in the maintenance of large production line equipment in a factory, maintenance trolleys can be used to hold tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers, as well as new parts such as bearings and belts. When maintenance personnel are working along the production line to repair different equipment nodes, they can easily obtain the necessary items by pushing the trolley.
[0003] Maintenance trolleys are indispensable for the inspection and maintenance of power plant equipment. Currently used maintenance trolleys can store maintenance tools and serve as mobile maintenance platforms. However, they lack specific space for storing discarded components. When performing maintenance work next to the trolley, there is a problem of nowhere to place these components, hindering real-time maintenance operations. Therefore, a recycling bin is placed on the trolley to collect discarded components. However, this recycling bin cannot be fixed to the trolley, is prone to tipping over, and occupies a large space, making it inconvenient to carry and use in narrow and complex working environments.
[0004] To address this issue, we propose a foldable, suspended waste component recycling bin suitable for maintenance trolleys. Summary of the Invention

[0027] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0029] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.
[0030] Example 1, referring to Figure 1 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a foldable hanging waste component recycling bin suitable for maintenance trolleys. The foldable hanging waste component recycling bin suitable for maintenance trolleys includes a receiving mechanism 100, including a front panel assembly 101, a side panel 103 disposed on the front panel assembly 101, a back panel assembly 102 disposed on the side panel 103, a rotating assembly 104 disposed on the side panel 103, and a bottom bag 105 disposed on the front panel assembly 101.
[0031] The connecting mechanism 200 includes a limiting component 201 disposed on the back panel assembly 102 and a suspension component 202 disposed on the limiting component 201;
[0032] The rotating assembly 104 allows the side plate 103 to fold inward, the limiting assembly 201 mounts the suspension assembly 202 onto the back plate assembly 102, and the suspension assembly 202 mounts the receiving mechanism 100 onto the maintenance trolley.
[0033] Specifically, the front panel assembly 101, side panel 103, and back panel assembly 102 form a box structure that can store discarded components. This makes it easy for staff to place disassembled discarded components or debris into the box structure, effectively improving work efficiency and environmental cleanliness, and reducing the loss of discarded components. The top surface of the box structure is not closed, and discarded components can enter the recycling bin through the top surface of the box. The suspension assembly 202 can be used to suspend the device on one side of the maintenance trolley, improving the convenience of the device.
[0034] Example 2, refer to Figure 2This is the second embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the bottom bag 105 is disposed on the front panel assembly 101, the side panel 103 and the back panel assembly 102.
[0035] Furthermore, the bottom bag 105 is made of a wear-resistant, tough, dense, and flexible material. The bottom bag 105 made of flexible material will not affect the folding and storage of the device, and can absorb the impact of discarded components falling.
[0036] The front panel assembly 101 includes a front side panel 101a, an operation panel 101b disposed on the front side panel 101a, and a friction section 101c disposed on the operation panel 101b.
[0037] Furthermore, the operating plate 101b has an elliptical structure, with its upper half extending beyond the front side plate 101a, and the friction section 101c is located on the upper front wall of the operating plate 101b.
[0038] Specifically, the control panel 101b makes it easier for the operator to pull the front panel 101a outward, improving the practicality of the device, and the friction section 101c can increase the friction force and prevent the device from slipping out of the hand during operation.
[0039] Reference Figure 3 The rotating assembly 104 includes a central shaft 104a disposed on the side plate 103, a first hinge 104b disposed on the central shaft 104a, and a second hinge 104c disposed on the central shaft 104a and corresponding to the position of the first hinge 104b.
[0040] Furthermore, the side panel 103 is divided into two sections, and the rotating assembly 104 is installed between the two sections. One end of hinge 104b and hinge 2104c are fixedly installed on the sections, and the other end is rotatably connected to the central shaft 104a, so that the sections can be folded outward around the central shaft 104a, effectively reducing the space occupied. Here, hinge 104b and hinge 2104c can only be folded inward to prevent the folding direction of the two sections from being confused, which would affect folding and storage.
[0041] Furthermore, both ends of the side plate 103 are connected to the front side plate 101a and the back side plate 102a via outward folding rotary bearings, allowing the plates to be folded inward relative to the front side plate 101a and the back side plate 102a, reducing the space occupied by the device and making it easier to store.
[0042] Reference Figure 5 When in use, the operator can pull the control panel 101b outward, which will move the front side panel 101a outward, thereby pulling the side panel 103 to unfold outward synchronously under the action of the rotating component 104 and the inner folding shaft, forming a recycling box for collecting waste gas components.
[0043] When the recycling bin is not needed during certain periods, the side panel 103 can be folded inwards, allowing the front side panel 101a and the back side panel 102a to fit tightly together. This significantly reduces the space occupied by the device. In confined maintenance areas or work sites where various equipment needs to be moved frequently, this flexible folding and storage feature makes unfolding and storing the recycling bin exceptionally easy and convenient, greatly improving the device's practicality in different work scenarios.
[0044] Example 3, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 4 This is the third embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is that the back panel assembly 102 includes a back side panel 102a and a notch 102b disposed on the back side panel 102a.
[0045] The limiting component 201 includes a fixing plate 201a disposed on the notch 102b.
[0046] Furthermore, the fixing plate 201a is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the notch groove 102b. The fixing plate 201a is made of rigid material, which improves the strength and integrity of the recycling bin.
[0047] The limiting component 201 also includes a threaded hole 201b disposed on the fixing plate 201a, and a bolt 201c disposed inside the threaded hole 201b.
[0048] The suspension assembly 202 includes a main bracket 202a mounted on a bolt 201c and a side bracket 202b mounted on the main bracket 202a.
[0049] Furthermore, bolt 201c is threaded into the threaded hole 201b, and one end of bolt 201c passes through the threaded hole 201b and is threaded to the main support 202a. The purpose of this is to improve the stable connection to the main support 202a and reduce the shaking of the main support 202a.
[0050] Furthermore, the thickness of the main support 202a is twice that of the side support 202b, and the length of the side support 202b is 1.5 times that of the main support 202a. The narrower side support 202b allows the suspension assembly 202 to be inserted into narrower gaps, making it suitable for different maintenance trolleys and improving the practicality of the device. The thicker main support 202a can improve the structural strength of the suspension assembly 202, and the longer side support 202b can increase the insertion depth, thereby improving the stability of the installation.
[0051] The suspension assembly 202 also includes an anti-slip layer 202c disposed on the side bracket 202b, and an installation groove 202d is provided between the main bracket 202a and the side bracket 202b.
[0052] The anti-slip layer 202c is made of rubber material and has multiple textures.
[0053] Specifically, the anti-slip layer 202c made of rubber material has good anti-slip performance and high shock absorption capacity. The multiple textures can further increase the friction of the anti-slip layer 202c and improve the stability of the suspension assembly 202.
[0054] In actual maintenance scenarios, workers can use the suspension assembly 202 to securely suspend the device on one side of the maintenance trolley. Workers can then easily place replaced, discarded components into the recycling bin, ensuring proper temporary storage. After the maintenance work is completed, workers can then systematically organize and process the accumulated discarded components in the recycling bin. This centralized processing method effectively prevents discarded components from being scattered and left in hidden corners of the control panel or other areas on-site, thus preventing potential safety issues caused by these overlooked components and building a strong safety barrier for the entire work environment.
[0055] Furthermore, the recycling bin's modular design is particularly ingenious. This design allows staff to easily and quickly remove the bin when needed to dispose of collected waste, effortlessly completing the waste cleanup and ensuring a consistently clean and orderly working environment. This creates favorable conditions for carrying out various tasks efficiently and safely.
