Garbage Bag Holder With Pressing Mechanism for One-Handed Tearing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing pet garbage bag boxes require both hands to tear open roll-shaped garbage bags, making it cumbersome and inconvenient for users.
Innovation Solution
A garbage bag storage device with a side opening and a first pressing portion that allows one-handed operation to pull out and compress the bag, facilitating easy tearing with one hand while holding the device with the other.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If both hands are used to grasp the garbage bag for tearing open, then the tearing operation can be performed, but the user cannot hold the storage device body steady and requires additional actions to stabilize the device
Solution Approach 1:
The storage device body provides self-service by automatically stabilizing itself through the user's gripping action. When the user holds the storage device body with one hand, the device's structure naturally remains stable without requiring the other hand or additional stabilization actions, enabling the user to freely operate the garbage bag tearing with the other hand.
2Ease of operation
If the storage device body is placed on the floor or another surface to free both hands, then both hands can grasp the garbage bag, but the device requires additional space and setup actions
Solution Approach 1:
The storage device body performs self-service by maintaining its own stability through the user's one-handed grip. This eliminates the need to place the device on the floor or other surfaces, allowing immediate operation without additional setup actions and maintaining operational efficiency.
3Ease of operation
If the first pressing portion compresses the garbage bag, then the garbage bag volume is reduced and easier to handle, but the storage device structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The storage device body is segmented into functional regions: the storage cavity for holding the garbage bag, the side opening for extraction, and the first pressing portion for compression. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently, achieving garbage bag compression without requiring a completely redesigned complex structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The storage device body serves multiple functions: it stores the garbage bag in the storage cavity, allows extraction through the side opening, and compresses the garbage bag using the first pressing portion. This multi-functionality is achieved within a unified structural framework, avoiding the need for separate dedicated devices for each function.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enables convenient and efficient one-handed tearing of garbage bags, improving user experience by eliminating the need to stabilize the device with both hands during opening.
Implementation Method 1
a first pressing portion is further arranged on the side portion of the storage device body, and when the first pressing portion is pressed, it is capable of moving toward the side portion of the storage device body to compress the garbage bag

AI summary
Disclosed is a garbage bag storage device that facilitates tearing open a garbage bag, which includes a storage device body; a storage cavity is arranged in the storage device body for storing a garbage bag, and a side opening is arranged on a side portion of the storage device body for extracting the garbage bag; and a first pressing portion is further arranged on the side portion of the storage device body, and when the first pressing portion is pressed, it is capable of moving toward the side portion of the storage device body to compress the garbage bag. After pulling out the full length of the garbage bag, use one hand to press the first pressing portion toward the side portion of the storage device body, thereby compressing the garbage bag. At this point, the other hand can grasp the garbage bag and easily and quickly tear it open.
