The end of the locking pin 42 matches the pin hole 11.

[0035] In the above structure, the hinge shaft 3 adopts a nut-type structure, and a flared end for locking is provided at the end of the hinge shaft, thereby facilitating axial fixation of the hinge shaft. The surface of the slider 40 is provided with a locking indicator to indicate the two pushing directions. Simultaneously, the locking pin, through the snap-fit ​​part 41, maintains a good fixing effect in the sliding state.

[0036] In addition, the end of the locking pin 42 is rounded to facilitate insertion into the pin hole 11.

[0037] Preferably, there are two sets of hinge seats 10, with the two sets of hinge seats 10 located on both sides of the top rear end of the barrel body 1. Using two sets of hinge seats can improve the stability during hinge rotation.

[0038] Preferably, the rear end of the inner ring of the bin 2 is hinged to an inner cover 5, and the inner cover 5 seals the upper opening. This allows the bin lid to prevent odors from escaping.

[0039] Preferably, a horizontal connecting rod 6 is hinged to the bottom of the barrel 1. A pedal 60 is provided at the front end of the horizontal connecting rod 6, located on the front side of the bottom of the barrel 1. A longitudinal connecting rod 61 is hinged to the other end of the horizontal connecting rod 6. The top of the longitudinal connecting rod 61 abuts against the lower end face of the inner cover 5. When the pedal 60 is pressed down, the rear end of the horizontal connecting rod 6 moves upward, driving the longitudinal connecting rod 61 to move upward, pushing the inner cover 5 to flip upward.

[0040] In the above structure, the user can easily open the inner cover by using the principle of leverage.

[0041] Preferably, a longitudinal connecting rod groove 12 is formed on the rear side of the barrel body 1, and the top of the longitudinal connecting rod groove 12 extends upward and forms a through hole 13 between it and the rear of the barrel body 1 for the top of the longitudinal connecting rod 61 to extend out. The through hole 13 facilitates the attachment of the longitudinal connecting rod 61 and prevents the longitudinal connecting rod from tipping over during the pressing of the pedal.

[0042] Preferably, the rear end of the top of the bin body 1 is provided with a handle groove 14 with a lower opening, and the bin ring 2 covers the upper end of the handle groove 14. This makes it convenient to lift the entire trash can by hand.

[0043] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
