Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of trash can technology, and more specifically, particularly to a trash can with a sign. Background Technology

[0002] Trash cans, placed in convenient locations for people to dispose of garbage, have become an essential part of daily life. Most existing trash cans are made of plastic, which can be formed by stretching into a single piece or assembled or spliced ​​from multiple surfaces. Current technology uses different colors painted all over the trash can to indicate its purpose. This method of labeling makes it impossible to interchange or substitute trash cans, forcing users to find a trash can of the same color for replacement. Users cannot change the trash can or its label, which is inconvenient for users. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this application is to address the shortcomings of the prior art and propose a trash can that facilitates the replacement of trash can labels.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application proposes a trash can with an identification sign, comprising a main body located in the middle of the trash can and a lid assembly located at the upper end of the main body. The main body includes a front panel located below the lid assembly, and a flange is provided at the upper end of the front panel. The trash can also includes an identification sign, which includes a buckle with a slot. The flange portion is accommodated in the slot, and the identification sign is engaged with the flange by the buckle.

[0005] The opening width of the slot is greater than the width of the flange.

[0006] The trash can is also equipped with a trash bag, which is located inside the main body and partially on the flange, with the flange stabilizing the trash bag.

[0007] The cover assembly includes a cover frame, the flange supports the cover frame, and the garbage bag portion is located at the connection between the flange and the cover frame.

[0008] The garbage bag portion is located within the slot, and the garbage bag portion is located at the connection between the buckle and the flange.

[0009] The buckle portion is located at the connection between the flange and the cover frame, and the buckle abuts against the cover frame.

[0010] The flange includes a fixing groove, and the garbage bag portion is placed in the fixing groove.

[0011] The fixing groove is adapted to the buckle portion, the buckle portion is accommodated in the fixing groove, and the buckle and the wall of the fixing groove together fix the garbage bag.

[0012] The buckle has two parts, and the buckles are respectively fixed to both sides of the fixing groove.

[0013] The signboard includes a raised portion, and the front panel includes a vertical groove, wherein the raised portion is wholly or partially accommodated in the vertical groove; or, the raised portion abuts against the front panel.

[0014] Beneficial effects: As can be seen from the above technical solutions, this application has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. The device uses a snap-fit ​​mechanism to engage with the flange, making it easy for users to replace the label to indicate the purpose of the trash can; 2. The opening width of the slot is smaller than the width of the flange. The elasticity of the buckle itself allows the sign to be snapped onto the flange, improving the stability of the sign's fixation. 3. The combination of the cover frame and flange makes the garbage bag more stable and reduces the possibility of the garbage bag falling into the body. 4. The buckles on the sign secure the garbage bag to the flange, improving the stability of the garbage bag; 5. The frame and buckle are engaged, which improves the stability of the sign.

[0017] The embodiments of this application will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a trash can with a sign according to this application includes a main body 2 composed of multiple panels and open at both ends, a cover assembly 1 connected to the main body 2 and used to close the upper end of the main body 2, and a base plate 3 fixed to the main body 2 and used to close the lower opening of the main body 2. The cover assembly 1 is connected to the upper end or upper part of the main body 2, and the base plate 3 is connected to the lower end or lower part of the main body 2.

[0019] The main body 2 includes a front panel 21, a right panel, a rear panel, and a left panel. One end of the front panel 21 is directly connected to one end of the right panel or indirectly connected via a support column. The other end of the right panel is directly connected to one end of the rear panel or indirectly connected via a support column. The other end of the rear panel is directly connected to one end of the left panel or indirectly connected via a support column. The other end of the left panel is directly connected to the other end of the front panel 21 or indirectly connected via a support column. The assembled front panel 21, right panel, rear panel, and left panel together form the main body 2. It is understood that the main body 2 can be integrally injection molded or stretched, that is, the front panel 21, right panel, rear panel, and left panel can be integrally molded using a mold or machine. The main body 2 and the base plate 3 can also be integrally molded. That is, the front panel 21 is located at the front end of the main body 2 and is located below the cover assembly 1.

[0020] The end of the main body 2 that is connected to the cover assembly 1 has a flange 22. The flange 22 is located on one or more of the front panel 21, right panel, rear panel and left panel. In this embodiment, the flange 22 is located on the front panel 21.

[0021] The flange 22 and the front panel 21 can be integrally formed, or they can be fixedly connected by snap-fit, screw connection, or welding. In this embodiment, the flange 22 and the front panel 21 are snap-fitted together. The flange 22 is located at the upper end of the front panel 21.

[0022] Flange 22 is used to support and secure the garbage bag. The rear panel is detachably or rotatably connected to the cover assembly 1. Specifically, the cover assembly 1 includes a cover frame 11 and a cover panel 12. The cover frame 11 is rotatably connected to the rear panel to open and close the opening located at the top of the main body 2, making it convenient for users to put garbage bags into the garbage can. The cover panel 12 is rotatably connected to the cover frame 11. When the cover panel 12 is open, users can throw garbage into the garbage can. When the cover panel 12 is closed, it reduces the entry of rainwater and other substances into the garbage can.

[0023] After the garbage bag is placed, it partially or completely covers the flange 22, meaning the flange 22 supports and secures the garbage bag. When the lid frame 11 is fully closed, the lid frame 11 abuts against the flange 22 covering the garbage bag, further securing the garbage bag between the flange 22 and the lid frame 11. This improves the stability of the garbage bag and reduces the possibility of it falling into the garbage bin when the user disposes of the garbage.

[0024] The flange 22 is provided with a fixing groove 221, which is located at the top of the flange 22. Each flange 22 has at least one fixing groove 221, which is located in the middle of the flange 22. The opening of the fixing groove 221 faces upward. The garbage bag located on the flange 22 can be partially accommodated in the fixing groove 221 to improve the stability of the garbage bag.

[0025] The trash can also include a label 4, which is detachably connected to the trash can for easy replacement and maintenance. Users can change the purpose of the trash can simply by replacing the label 4. For example, when the recyclable waste label 4 is attached to the trash can, it becomes a recyclable waste bin; if the label 4 is replaced with a hazardous waste label, the trash can becomes a hazardous waste bin. This simplifies the process of changing trash cans, improving efficiency. Furthermore, only one type of trash can needs to be produced; simply attaching different labels 4 transforms it into a trash can for different purposes, eliminating the need for painting or color changes. This simplifies the manufacturing process and increases production efficiency.

[0026] The sign 4 includes a clip 41, which is bent to form a groove 42. The sign 4 is detachably connected to the trash can via the clip 41 structure. Specifically, the clip 41 snaps onto the flange 22 of the front panel 21, such that part of the flange 22 is located within the groove 42. The sign 4 is fixed to the front panel 21 by the clip 41 and the flange 22 structure. It can be understood that the sign 4 can be fixed to the left panel, right panel, rear panel, and cover assembly 1 using the same fixing method; or the sign 4 can be located on one or more of these panels simultaneously, facilitating the display of the trash can type to the user from different angles.

[0027] The garbage bag portion is located at the connection between the buckle 41 and the flange 22, that is, the garbage bag portion is located within the slot 42, which allows the buckle 41 to further secure the garbage bag to the flange 22, improving the stability of the garbage bag. Furthermore, the buckle 41 and the flange 22 are fixed together at the fixing groove 221, which improves the stability of the garbage bag at the fixing groove 221, thereby improving the stability of the garbage bag.

[0028] The cover frame 11 abuts against the buckle 41, or the buckle 41 is located at the connection between the cover frame 11 and the flange 22. The buckle 41 abuts against or is fixed to the cover frame 11, giving the sign 4 better stability.

[0029] Each sign 4 has one, two, or more buckles 41. The specific number of buckles 41 on each sign 4 can be selected by those skilled in the art based on actual needs. If the sign 4 has one buckle 41, the buckle 41 is fixed to the flange 22 at the fixing groove 221, which improves the stability of the garbage bag. If the sign 4 has two buckles 41, the two buckles 41 are fixed to both sides of the fixing groove 221, that is, the two buckles 41 are fixedly connected to the flange 22 on both sides of the fixing groove 221, which improves the stability of the sign 4 and the garbage bag. If the sign 4 has three buckles 41, the middle buckle 41 is located at the fixing groove 221, and the two buckles 41 on both sides are fixed to both sides of the fixing groove 221, which improves the stability of the sign 4 and the garbage bag.

[0030] The thickness of flange 22 is slightly greater than the width of the opening of slot 42. During installation, due to the elasticity of buckle 41, the opening of slot 42 opens, allowing flange 22 to enter slot 42. After the sign 4 is installed, flange 22 is partially accommodated in slot 42. Due to the elasticity of buckle 41, there is pressure between buckle 41 and flange 22, which improves the stability of the connection between sign 4 and flange 22.

[0031] The front panel 21 has a vertical groove 211 on its exterior. The groove 211 serves two purposes: drainage and reinforcement, increasing the strength of the front panel 21. Simultaneously, the groove 211 reduces the weight of the front panel 21, saving material costs. The sign 4 has a protrusion 43. When installed onto the flange 22, the protrusion 43 is partially or completely contained within the vertical groove 211, improving the stability of the sign 4. It is understood that the right panel, rear panel, left panel, and cover assembly 1 all have a vertical groove 211 structure to stabilize the sign 4. It is also understood that the protrusion 43 can be placed outside the vertical groove 211, directly abutting against the front panel 21.

[0032] The structure of the buckle 41 is adapted to the groove of the fixing groove 221, which increases the contact area between the buckle 41 and the flange 22, that is, increases the contact area between the buckle 41 and the garbage bag, thereby improving the stability of the garbage bag and reducing the possibility of the garbage bag being torn.
