Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Garbage bag storage boxes in existing technologies often suffer from lugs that crack or break, leading to instability and potential messes due to improper handling of garbage bags.
Innovation Solution
A garbage bag storage box design featuring a protruding element with a uniform width and perpendicular edges, reinforced by a plate, and an annular cover with tearable portions, ensuring stability and protection of the bag.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If lugs are provided at intervals on the storage box for hanging, then the storage box can be hung in the garbage container, but the lugs are likely to crack or break during use
Solution Approach 1:
The protruding element is divided into multiple segments (first protruding edge, second protruding edge, and reinforcing plate) that work together to form a complete hanging structure. This segmentation allows each part to perform its specific function while distributing stress, preventing any single point from failing under load.
Solution Approach 2:
The protruding element combines multiple structural components (edges and reinforcing plate) into a composite structure that leverages the strengths of each component. The reinforcing plate acts as a structural support element that complements the protruding edges, creating a more durable hanging mechanism than any single element could provide alone.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a continuous garbage bag is used in the storage box, then the length can be adapted to different amounts of garbage, but the storage box structure must be robust enough to handle the bag
Solution Approach 1:
The protruding element serves multiple functions: it provides hanging capability, structural reinforcement, and stability prevention. This multi-functionality allows the storage box to handle continuous garbage bags of varying lengths without requiring additional specialized components, thereby managing complexity while maintaining versatility.
Solution Approach 2:
The protruding element extends radially outward from the storage box in a dimension perpendicular to the main body, creating a stable hanging structure that prevents rotation and movement. This dimensional addition provides structural stability without complicating the basic storage box design, enabling it to securely hold adaptable garbage bag lengths.

AI summary
A garbage bag storage box is provided. The garbage bag storage box includes an annular container and a protruding element. A central opening is defined by the annular container. The annular container includes a storage area. The protruding element surrounds an outer peripheral surface of the annular container. The protruding element radially protrudes outward from the outer peripheral surface of the annular container and has a uniform or even width. The protruding element includes a first protruding edge surrounding the outer peripheral surface of the annular container and a second protruding edge surrounding an outer periphery of the first protruding edge. A contour of the central opening has a diameter dimension in a radial plane. The central opening is defined to be circular with the diameter dimension in the radial plane.
