AI Technical Summary
Existing garbage collection devices are floor-based and lack a mechanism for holding a garbage collection bag, leading to issues like the bag slipping off when heavy garbage is collected, and the opening closing or shrinking during single-hand use, resulting in inefficient garbage disposal.
A mechanism comprising a covering ring and a handle ring connected at a pivot point, with a garbage bag sandwiched between them and secured by a retainer, allowing the bag to be held open and replaced easily.
The solution maintains the bag opening securely during collection, preventing it from collapsing under weight and facilitating easy bag replacement, enhancing single-hand garbage disposal efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a garbage collector having a mechanism for attaching handles to two rings of different sizes, connecting them at a fulcrum, and holding a garbage collection bag.
Background Art
[0002] Conventionally, there have been devices for putting garbage collection bags into trash cans or devices for attaching garbage collection bags to trash cans. However, all of them are of the type placed on the floor, and there is no type that can be held by hand as in the present invention, and there is nothing that can be used for garbage collection. Also, although there are patented applications for devices that can be held by hand, there is no mechanism for holding a garbage collection bag, and in the case of heavy garbage, the garbage collection bag may slip off.

Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] In garbage collection, when picking up garbage with a tong or the like while holding a garbage collection bag in one hand and putting it into the bag, the mouth of the garbage collection bag often closes or shrinks, making it difficult to put the garbage into the bag properly. To facilitate garbage collection, garbage collection may be done by two people, but one person has to open the mouth of the bag and the other has to put the garbage in, resulting in poor work efficiency.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0005] This invention was made to solve these problems. It has a structure in which a covering ring and a handle ring are connected at a pivot point and overlapped, and the garbage collection bag is sandwiched between the two rings. The two rings are fixed with a retainer to hold the garbage collection bag in place so that it does not shift or come off. The covering ring can rotate around the pivot point of the handle ring, and the garbage collection bag is placed over the handle ring, the garbage collection bag is sandwiched with the covering ring, and it is fixed with the retainer for use. The garbage collection bag can be easily removed from the ring and replaced. This garbage collection device has the above characteristics. The problem we aim to solve is that when collecting garbage while holding a garbage bag with one hand, the opening of the garbage bag can become blocked or collapse, making it difficult to put garbage in. The most important feature of this invention is that it allows the opening of the garbage bag to be maintained while holding it with one hand during garbage collection, and also makes it easy to replace the garbage bag. [Effects of the Invention]
[0006] This invention secures the garbage bag with two rings and a holder, preventing the bag from falling due to the weight of the collected garbage. The ring portion serves as the opening for collecting garbage, preventing the garbage bag from closing or collapsing when collecting garbage with one hand, making it easy to collect garbage into the bag. Furthermore, the garbage bag can be easily replaced by removing it from the rings. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 7] This is a cross-sectional view of a waste collection device according to Example 1 of the present invention. [Figure 8] This is an external view of the garbage collection device according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention with a garbage collection bag attached. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0008] This garbage collection device connects a handle ring and a cover ring so that they can be opened and closed using the handle ring as a pivot point. The garbage bag is held in place by the two rings, and a holder secures the garbage bag to prevent it from shifting, and an opening is provided for the garbage bag. [Examples]
[0009] A pivot hole 3 is provided in the handle portion 2 of the handle ring 1. A pivot hole 5 is provided in the cover ring 4. The hole 3 of the handle ring 1 and the hole 5 of the cover ring 4 are connected by a shaft 6. The cover ring 4 is structured to open and close vertically relative to the handle ring 1, with the shaft 6 as the pivot point. The opening 7 of the handle ring 1 and the opening 8 of the cover ring 3 are the same size and shape. A holder 9 is attached to the handle ring 1, and the cover ring 4 is fixed to the handle ring 1. When in use, the garbage collection bag 10 is fitted into the opening 7 of the handle ring 1, and the garbage collection bag 10 is sandwiched from above by the cover ring 4 and fixed with the holder 9 of the handle ring 1. The present invention has the above configuration. [Examples]
[0010] A hole 3 serving as a fulcrum is provided in the handle portion 2 of the handle ring 1. A hole 5 serving as a fulcrum is provided in the cover ring 4. The hole 3 of the handle ring 1 and the hole 5 of the cover ring 4 are connected by a shaft 6. The cover ring 4 is structured to be able to open and close vertically with respect to the handle ring 1 with the shaft 6 as a fulcrum. The size and shape of the outer periphery of the opening 7 of the handle ring 1 are the same as the size and shape of the inner periphery of the opening 8 of the cover ring 3. A retainer 9 is attached to the shaft 5, and the cover ring 4 is sandwiched and fixed between the handle ring 1. In use, a garbage collection bag 10 is fitted into the opening 7 of the handle ring 1, and the garbage collection bag 10 is sandwiched from the outside by the cover ring 4 and tightened and fixed by the retainer 9 of the handle ring 1. The present invention has the above-described configuration.
Industrial Applicability
[0011] It can also be applied to the use as a collector when putting objects and agricultural, forestry and fishery products into a large bag or net for collection.
