Definitions

  • the present invention relates to improvements made to compacting household trash cans.
  • the assembly of the lower end of the operating rod and the compacting plate requires a pusher system controlled by a handle, the assembly being complex and not very economical.
  • the improvements according to the present invention aim to remedy these drawbacks and to allow the production of a compacting bin which responds better than hitherto to the wishes of the users.
  • the trash can illustrated in fig. 1 essentially comprises a tank 1 of rectangular cross section, the upper part of which is capped by a frame 2 to which a cover 3 is articulated, while inside this bin a compacting plate 4 can be moved vertically in order to compact garbage contained in a plastic bag.
  • This is placed inside the tank and its opening is wedged between the frame 2 and the upper part of the tank 1, as illustrated in fig. 2 and following, the bag being referenced 5 and shown diagrammatically by broken lines.
  • Openings 1 and 2a are provided in correspondence in the tank and the frame respectively, so that by passing their hands through these openings, the user grasps these two elements without separating them.
  • the compacting plate 4 is intended to be associated with a control member 6 which is normally located, that is to say outside of the compaction periods, in a groove 3a of the cover 3.
  • the latter pivots with respect to to the frame 2 by means of studs 2b of the latter which engage in perforations 3b formed in the ears 3c of the cover 3.
  • groove 3a is crossed by an opening 3d located in its middle and which is intended on the one hand for the passage of the control member 6 during compaction and on the other hand to allow the permanent assembly of this member and the compacting plate 4.
  • the latter comprises a network of reinforcing ribs from a vertical central extension composed of two vertical legs 4a, 4b, the facing faces each carry a lug 4 Q , 4d having a common horizontal geometric axis. Between the two legs 4a and 4b is a hollow projection 4e whose role will be better explained below.
  • the control member 6 is produced in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped whose length corresponds to that of the cover 3 and of section identical to that of the groove 3a (FIG. 2), so that this member is embedded in lid.
  • One of the ends of the member 6 comprises a grip handle 6a projecting downward and which engages in a recess 3e made at one of the ends of the groove 3a.
  • the member 6 also has an opening 6b adjacent to the handle 6a and facilitating its gripping.
  • the two longitudinal faces of the member 6 are hollow in order to determine two slides 6c, 6d whose height is slightly greater than the diameter of the pins 4c, 4d.
  • the end of the member 6 opposite its handle 6a is provided a depression 6e of complementary section to that of the projection 4e of the compacting plate 4.
  • the bin according to the invention in partial view from above, its cover 3 being open as illustrated in broken lines in FIG. 3, that is to say that it has been pivoted around the studs 2b of the frame 2, so that its rear edge 3f bears against the corresponding face of the frame so as to constitute a maximum opening stop .
  • the control member 6 is introduced horizontally into the opening 3b of the cover, so that it occurs horizontally once its handle 6a abuts against the top of said cover.
  • the two slides 6c, 6d of the member 6 each have a notch 6f, 6g, if the compacting plate 4 is presented in a vertical position with its legs 4a, 4b facing the notches 6f, 6g it is possible to penetrate the pins 4c, 4d in the slides 6c, 6d as a result of the position of the notches 6f, 6g. Things are arranged so that in no position of the control member 6 during operation, the pins 4c, 4d never come to the notches 6f, 6g. Indeed, once said pins engaged in the slides 6c, 6d of the member 6, any axial movement of the latter takes place in the area between these notches and its end opposite to the handle 6a.
  • the member 6 cannot be moved in the opposite direction to the direction of the arrow F in FIG. 5, beyond the stop position of the handle 6a against the recess 3e.
  • the operating member is then withdrawn outwards by sliding it in the opening 3d of the cover 3 until the plate 4 comes against the underside of the cover 3.
  • the opening 3d of the cover has two lateral cutouts 3g , 3h which open into the groove 3a two housings 3i, 3j into which come the tabs 4a, 4h in the high position of the plate 4, the pins 4c4_d then being located across said groove while being engaged in the slide of the 'organ 6, as illustrated in fig. 3.
  • a hinge is formed between this member and the plate 4.
  • a user wishes to deposit garbage in the trash can, he need only open the lid, pour the garbage into the bag 5, and close the lid. If it then wishes to compact the products deposited in the bag, it extracts the operating member by making it undergo a longitudinal translation along the arrow F in FIG. 5, this translation bringing the two pins 4c, 4d in the vicinity of the end of the member 6 opposite its handle 6a. Under these conditions, it is possible to tilt the member 6 to bring it vertically along the arrows F1 and F2 of FIG. 5. The next operation consists in lowering the operating member vertically in the downward direction according to arrow F3.
  • a compacting bin was thus produced, the compacting plate of which is actuated by a control member which, in the rest position, is perfectly inserted in the general volume of the bin.
  • the article which is the subject of the present invention can be produced from any suitable material, but that its various elements are advantageously produced by pressure molding of a plastic material.
  • the handle 6a abuts against the bottom of the groove 3a if the operating member 6, placed vertically, is released by the user when the bin is empty.
