Description

Technical Field

[0001] This technical solution relates to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically a type of trash can. Background Technology

[0002] Trash cans are common items used for storing garbage. Existing double-lid trash cans consist of a first lid and a second lid. The first lid is used to cover the rim of the trash bag and serves a decorative purpose, while the second lid is used to open or close the trash can.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN201410218100.1 discloses a trash can with a garbage bag fastening function, which includes a can body, a can lid, and a fastening frame. The fastening frame is equivalent to the first lid body and can play the role of fixing the garbage bag and decoration. However, it still has some shortcomings: because the fastening frame needs to be easy to rotate and open, it is usually made of plastic material, which makes it easy to wear or scratch during use, affecting the appearance. Furthermore, the scratched areas are prone to accumulating dirt and grime, resulting in poor hygiene. At the same time, the structural strength of plastic material is low, and it is easy to break when it is impacted, thus affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this technical solution is to provide a trash can that improves the problem of easy wear and scratches on the existing trash can fastening frame by setting a protective plate on the outside of the lid ring and the protective plate being made of metal material.

[0005] The purpose of this technical solution is achieved as follows:

[0006] A trash can includes:

[0007] The trash can itself;

[0008] A lid ring, the end of which is hinged to the opening of the trash can body;

[0009] The protective plate is made of metal and is installed on the outside of the bucket lid ring. The upper end of the protective plate has a connecting part that connects to the upper end of the bucket lid ring, thereby enabling the protective plate to be installed on the bucket lid ring.

[0010] Preferably, the upper edge of the lid ring has a raised edge, and the connecting part has a groove, with the raised edge inserted into the groove.

[0011] Preferably, the upper circumferential end of the bucket lid ring is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves, and the connecting part is provided with a plurality of limiting protrusions corresponding to the limiting grooves;

[0012] When the convex edge is placed in the groove, the limiting protrusion is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the limiting groove is provided with a through hole, the through hole connects the upper and lower ends of the bucket lid ring, and the end of the limiting protrusion passes through the through hole and bends toward the lower end of the bucket lid ring.

[0014] Preferably, the connecting part is bent towards the upper end of the lid ring to form a fixing part, and a plurality of fixing members are connected to the lid ring. The end of the fixing member passes through the upper end of the lid ring and is connected to the fixing part.

[0015] Preferably, the lower end of the protective plate is bent toward the lower end of the bucket lid ring to form an arc-shaped edge.

[0016] Preferably, the rear end of the lid ring has a hinge portion, which is hinged to the trash can body, and the outer side wall of the hinge portion is provided with a limiting portion, which abuts against the outer side of the protective plate to prevent the end of the protective plate from detaching from the lid ring.

[0017] The key and beneficial technical effects of this technical solution compared to existing technologies are:

[0018] 1. This technical solution features a protective plate on the outside of the bin lid ring. The protective plate is made of metal and reduces scratches and impacts during daily use, preventing damage to the bin lid ring due to friction or collision. Simultaneously, the protective plate is resistant to aging, maintaining stable performance over a long period and is not easily deteriorated by environmental factors. Furthermore, the smooth surface of the metal protective plate is easy to clean, reducing stain adhesion and providing strong stain resistance, thus helping to maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the trash can. Moreover, the inherent texture of the metal material enhances the overall aesthetics of the bin lid ring, thereby improving the user experience and practicality of the trash can.

[0019] 2. This technical solution sets a protective plate on the outside of the lid ring, forming a layered structure of the protective plate and the lid ring. When the protective plate is damaged due to long-term use or accident, there is no need to replace the entire lid ring. Only the old protective plate needs to be removed and replaced with a new one, which reduces maintenance costs and operational difficulty, making daily maintenance more convenient and efficient.

[0020] 3. This technical solution uses a limiting protrusion inserted into a corresponding limiting groove to install the protective plate onto the lid ring. The cooperation between the limiting protrusion and the limiting groove can restrict the displacement of the protective plate, preventing it from sliding or even detaching from the lid ring, thereby ensuring a stable installation between the protective plate and the lid ring and guaranteeing that the protective plate performs its protective function.

[0032] The specific implementation of this technical solution will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. See also Figures 1-8 .

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] Combination Figures 1-3 A type of trash can, comprising:

[0035] The trash can body 1 includes a can body, a can lid, and a foot pedal device;

[0036] The lid ring 2 is hinged at the end of the garbage can body 1 at the mouth of the garbage can. That is, the rear end of the lid ring 2 is hinged to the side wall of the mouth of the can body, so that the lid ring 2 can be rotated and set on the can body. That is, the lid ring 2 can cover the mouth of the can body, so as to fix the garbage bag and decorate the edge of the mouth of the can.

[0037] The protective plate 3 is made of metal. It is bent into a ring-like structure and installed on the outside of the lid ring 2. The protective plate 3 is set around the outer periphery of the lid ring 2. The upper end of the protective plate 3 has a connecting part 31, which connects to the upper end of the lid ring 2. This allows the protective plate 3 to be installed on the lid ring 2. By wrapping the outer wall and upper edge of the lid ring 2 with the protective plate 3, the lid ring 2 is prevented from being exposed and worn, and the overall aesthetics are improved.

[0038] The metal material is stainless steel or aluminum alloy, with stainless steel being preferred.

[0039] The upper edge of the lid ring 2 has a raised edge 21, that is, the lid ring 2 has a boss 27. The raised edge 21 is provided at the edge of the boss 27 away from the middle of the lid ring 2. The upper end of the connecting part 31 is bent and a groove 32 is formed. The raised edge 21 is inserted into the groove 32, so that the protective plate 3 is installed on the lid ring 2, and the end of the connecting part 31 (that is, the groove edge of the groove 32) abuts against the upper end of the boss 27.

[0040] The lid ring 2 and the protective plate 3 are engaged by an interference fit between the protruding edge 21 and the groove 32, or, in combination with... Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The upper end of the lid ring 2 is provided with several limiting grooves 22, and the end of the connecting part 31 is provided with several limiting protrusions 33 corresponding to the limiting grooves 22, that is, the limiting protrusions 33 are provided at the opening of the groove 32.

[0041] When the protruding edge 21 is placed in the groove 32, the limiting protrusion 33 is inserted into the corresponding limiting groove 22, thereby enabling the protective plate 3 to be installed on the bucket lid ring 2 and preventing the protective plate 3 from shifting on the bucket lid ring 2, ensuring a stable connection.

[0042] To prevent the limiting protrusion 33 from dislodging from the limiting groove 22, a through hole 23 is provided at the bottom of the limiting groove 22. The through hole 23 connects the upper and lower ends of the lid ring 2. The end of the limiting protrusion 33 passes through the through hole 23 and bends toward the lower end of the lid ring 2 (the end of the limiting protrusion 33 bends toward the direction away from the groove opening 32). That is, the end of the limiting protrusion 33 passes through the through hole 23 and extends out of the bottom of the limiting groove 22. The part of the limiting protrusion 33 extending out of the limiting groove 22 bends toward the center of the lid ring 2 and abuts against the edge of the through hole 23. That is, the end of the limiting protrusion 33 bends and abuts against the lower end of the lid ring 2, thereby ensuring that the limiting protrusion 33 is securely installed in the limiting groove 22.

[0043] Combination Figures 3-5The lower end of the protective plate 3 is bent toward the lower end of the lid ring 2 to form an arc edge 35, that is, the lower end of the protective plate 3 is bent toward the inward side to prevent the lower end of the protective plate 3 from scratching the user due to its sharpness. At the same time, the arc edge 35 can improve the aesthetics of the lower end of the lid ring 2 when the lid ring 2 is opened to change the garbage bag.

[0044] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The rear end of the lid ring 2 has a hinge portion 25, which is hinged to the trash can body 1. The outer side wall of the hinge portion 25 is provided with a limiting portion 26, which is a protrusion or a protruding strip. When the protective plate 3 is installed on the lid ring 2 by deformation, both ends of the protective plate 3 are placed outside the hinge portion 25, and the limiting portion 26 abuts against the outer side of the end of the protective plate 3, thereby preventing the end of the protective plate 3 from detaching from the lid ring 2 and improving the aesthetics.

[0045] The trash can body 1 is provided with a hinge seat, which hinges the lid. The hinge pin on the hinge seat passes through the hinge protrusion of the lid and is hinged to the hinge part 25 of the lid ring 2. That is, there are two hinge protrusions of the lid between the two hinge parts 25 of the lid ring 2, and then the hinge seat is provided between the two hinge protrusions. The installation is achieved by the pin passing through the hinge seat, the hinge protrusions and the hinge part 25. The lid ring 2 is placed between the body and the lid. The foot pedal device is installed on the body and connected to the lid. The foot pedal device realizes the flipping and opening of the lid. The structure of the foot pedal device can be referred to Chinese Patent CN202420214224.1, which will not be described in detail here.

[0046] Example 2:

[0047] The design scheme of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1, except that:

[0048] like Figure 8 The connecting part 31 is bent toward the upper end of the lid ring 2 to form a fixing part 34. Several fixing parts 24 are connected to the lid ring 2. The end of the fixing part 24 passes through the upper end of the lid ring 2 and is connected to the fixing part 34. The fixing part 24 is a screw or a pin.

[0049] The fixing part 34 abuts against the upper end of the boss 27, and the end of the fixing part 34 abuts against the side end of the protrusion 21.
