[0038] like Figures 1-9 A type of trash can, comprising:

[0039] Barrel body 1 has an open top structure;

[0040] The horizontal partition 2 is fixedly connected to and sealed at the upper opening of the barrel 1 on the lower side, and has a through hole 21.

[0041] The upper barrel 3 has a bottom opening structure and is fixedly connected to the upper side of the horizontal partition 2, and the upper barrel 3 is hinged with a barrel lid 31.

[0042] The protective structure includes a first spherical shell 4 and a second spherical shell 5, both of which are open at the top. The first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 are connected to each other to form a hemispherical shell structure that seals the circular hole 21. One end of the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 are rotatably connected to the barrel body 1.

[0043] The drive mechanism is fixedly installed on the barrel body 1, and its drive end is simultaneously connected to the other end of the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 so that the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 rotate in opposite directions.

[0044] In a static state, the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 are sealed in the circular hole 21 under the action of gravity, and their upper surfaces are flush with the horizontal partition 2. Under the combined action of the horizontal partition 2, the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5, a sealing state is formed on the upper opening structure of the bin 1, so as to improve the problem that the lid of the current trash can may be lifted during actual use, causing the odor to escape, or even the trash inside the bin to be poured out.

[0045] When it is necessary to pour garbage into the bin 1, open the bin lid 31 and pour the garbage directly into the hemispherical shell structure formed by the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5. Then, start the drive mechanism to drive the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 to rotate simultaneously, so that the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 rotate in opposite directions. The contact surfaces of the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 open, and the garbage slides into the bin 1 under the action of gravity. Afterward, the drive mechanism drives the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 to rotate in opposite directions, and the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 press against each other, thereby closing the circular hole 21 again and completing the garbage pouring.

[0046] The bin 1 includes a lower bin 11 with an upper opening and a middle bin 12 connected at its lower end and detachably connected to the upper opening of the lower bin 11. The lower side of the partition 2 is fixedly connected to and seals the upper opening of the middle bin 12. This allows for the removal of waste from the lower bin 11 by separating the lower bin 11 and the middle bin 12.

[0047] As a specific connection method, the lower bin 11 and the middle bin 12 are interlocked. In use, the garbage bag can be placed under the lower bin 11 first, and then inserted into the middle bin 12, so that the garbage is directly poured into the garbage bag.

[0048] The first spherical shell 4 is provided with a support platform 48, and the second spherical shell 5 is provided with an overlapping platform 54 that overlaps with the support platform 48. When the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 are joined together to form a hemispherical shell structure, the support platform 48 and the overlapping platform 54 overlap each other, thereby improving the structural stability.

[0049] The specific hinge method between the upper barrel body 3 and the barrel lid 31 is a technical means known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0050] like Figures 2-9 The trash can of this application also includes a first shaft 6 rotatably connected to the can body 1 at one end, a first lug 41 rotatably connected to the other end of the first shaft 6 at one end of the first spherical shell 4, and a second lug 51 rotatably connected to the other end of the first shaft 6 at one end of the second spherical shell 5.

[0051] The first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 are stably rotated and installed via the first shaft 6.

[0052] The drive mechanism includes a motor 7 fixedly mounted on the barrel 1, a second shaft 71 coaxially fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 7 at one end, a planetary carrier 8 fixedly mounted on the inner side of the barrel 1, a sun gear 81 coaxially fixedly connected to the second shaft 71, multiple planetary gears 82 rotatably connected to the planetary carrier 8 and meshing with the sun gear 81, and a gear ring 83 simultaneously meshing with each planetary gear 82; the other end of the first spherical shell 4 is fixedly connected to a third lug 42 fixedly connected to the other end of the second shaft 71, the other end of the second spherical shell 5 is fixedly connected to a fourth lug 52 rotatably connected to the other end of the second shaft 71, and the second spherical shell 5 is fixedly connected to the gear ring 83.

[0053] When the drive mechanism drives the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 to rotate simultaneously to open the hemispherical shell structure, the motor 7 is started, driving the second shaft 71 to rotate. The rotating second shaft 71 drives the first spherical shell 4 to rotate. At the same time, under the transmission of the sun gear 81, planet gear 82 and gear ring 83, the second spherical shell 5 rotates in the opposite direction relative to the first spherical shell 4, so that the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 rotate in opposite directions, thereby opening the hemispherical shell structure.

[0054] As a conventional technical means in this field, the starting, forward and reverse rotation, and shut-off actions of motor 7 can be controlled by a remote control.

[0055] Based on the above embodiment, the second shaft 71 and the first shaft 6 are coaxial.

[0056] The drive mechanism also includes a limiting plate 9 fixedly connected to the second spherical shell 5. The limiting plate 9 has a limiting groove 91 for inserting the gear ring 83, and the gear ring 83 is fixedly connected to two clamping plates 831 that are respectively clamped on the upper and lower sides of the limiting plate 9.

[0057] With the planet carrier 8, sun gear 81 and planet gear 82 connected, the gear ring 83 is stably installed. At the same time, through the clamping of two clamping plates 831 and the connection of the limiting plate 9, the second spherical shell 5 and the gear ring 83 maintain a stable connection relationship. When the gear ring 83 rotates, the second spherical shell 5 rotates synchronously under the connection of the clamping plates 831 and the limiting plate 9.

[0058] The limiting plate 9 has an insertion hole 92, into which a rod 93 is inserted, and the gear ring 83 has a limiting hole 832 that communicates with the insertion hole 92, and the rod 93 is inserted into the limiting hole 832 at the same time.

[0059] By inserting the rod 93 into both the limiting hole 832 and the insertion hole 92 simultaneously, it is further ensured that the gear ring 83 and the second spherical shell 5 can rotate synchronously.

[0060] The partition plate 2 is fixedly connected to the cover 22, and a rotation space is formed between the cover 22 and the inner wall of the upper barrel 3. The planet carrier 8, the sun gear 81, the planet gear 82 and the gear ring 83 are all located in the rotation space.

[0061] The protective cover 22 forms a protective layer for the planet carrier 8, sun gear 81, planet gear 82 and gear ring 83, preventing waste from being dumped onto the planet carrier 8, sun gear 81, planet gear 82 and gear ring 83.

[0062] like Figures 7-9 The first spherical shell 4 is fixedly connected to the edge end of a first water tank 43. The side wall of the first water tank 43 is provided with a plurality of first water leakage holes 431 opening towards the inside of the first spherical shell 4. The side wall of the first water tank 43 is also connected to a first water inlet pipe 432. The second spherical shell 5 is fixedly connected to the edge end of a second water tank 53. The side wall of the second water tank 53 is provided with a plurality of second water leakage holes 531 opening towards the inside of the second spherical shell 5. The side wall of the second water tank 53 is also connected to a second water inlet pipe 532. The volume of the first spherical shell 4 is larger than the volume of the second spherical shell 5. The bottom end of the first spherical shell 4 is provided with a plurality of water collection holes 44. The outside is connected to a water collection pipe 45 that connects to each water collection hole 44.

[0063] After long-term use, the first water inlet pipe 432 and the second water inlet pipe 532 can be connected to a water source, and water can be added to the first water tank 43 and the second water tank 53. The water will leak down from the first water leakage hole 431 and the second water leakage hole 531 and rinse the inside of the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5. The rinsed water will leak into the tank body 1 from the water collection hole 44 and the water collection pipe 45 for subsequent unified treatment.

[0064] Meanwhile, during use, when wet waste is poured into the hemispherical shell structure formed by the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5, the sewage and waste can be separated to a certain extent through the water collection hole 44 and the water collection pipe 45. After separation, the waste and sewage can be manually treated separately.

[0065] Based on the above embodiment, an avoidance hole is provided through the side wall of the middle barrel 12 to avoid the installation of the first water inlet pipe 432 and the second water inlet pipe 532.

[0066] like Figures 7-9 The first spherical shell 4 is provided with an air cavity 46 that connects the water collection pipe 45 and each water collection hole 44, and the first spherical shell 4 is fixedly connected to an air inlet pipe 47 with one end connected to the ventilation cavity 46.

[0067] During cleaning, the other end of the air inlet pipe 47 can be connected to a ventilator to blow air into the air chamber 46, so that the air can clean the water collection pipe 45 and each water collection hole 44, reducing blockage. Moreover, when the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 rotate in opposite directions, the contact surfaces of the first spherical shell 4 and the second spherical shell 5 open. At this time, the water collection pipe 45 is facing the direction of the water collection pipe 45, which can be blocked. Then, warm air is blown in by the heater, and the warm air blows from each water collection hole 44 toward the bottom of the barrel 1 to dry the garbage.

[0068] Based on the above embodiment, the air inlet pipe 47 is installed in the clearance hole.

[0069] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
