Definitions

• the present invention relates to the field of domestic hygiene and more particularly to the field of garbage and litter collection.
• the present invention specifically has for obj and a receptacle for household trash.
• garbage cans come in various forms and in various ways. We can however distinguish two main types of garbage cans.
• the first consists of a container of generally cylindrical or parallelepiped shape open on its upper part and provided with a lid hinged on the upper rim of said container.
• the opening and closing of this cover is obtained by a mechanism actuated by means of a pedal or simply by hand.
• the bin can also include an extractable inner bucket.
• the second type of bin is simply in the form of a container of cylindrical or parallelepiped shape open on its upper part and provided with a removable cover equipped with a grip handle.
• the inside of the container or bucket is usually lined with a plastic bag, to facilitate the transfer of the rubbish deposited in the bag when it is full. This bag also keeps the inside of the bin clean.
• the object of the invention is therefore to eliminate the unit replacement of bags, in particular to eliminate the drawbacks linked to the use of the bins of the prior art.
• a bin receptacle intended in particular for a more particularly domestic use comprising a bottom, a side wall and an opening opposite the bottom, characterized in that the receptacle has a double bottom delimiting with the bottom, a compartment capable of receiving a reserve of bags, the double bottom being provided with an orifice allowing the passage of a single bag, the bags being successively connected to each other in a detachable manner, the removal of 'A bag previously positioned in the receptacle causing the extraction of another bag from the compartment until the separation of said bags and so on for the other bags.
• these bags consist of a pre-cut strip of bags, assembled so that the closed end of a bag is fixed to the opening end of the next bag.
• this strip of bags is packaged in the form of a roll.
• these strip bags can also be folded alternately in the direction of the length of the strip, this folding taking place at a given spacing, so as to obtain a package substantially of rectangular shape.
• the double bottom is pivotally fixed on the inner face of the side wall of the receptacle between an open position and a closed position.
• the double bottom is made in two parts, each part being pivotally fixed on the inner face of the side wall of the receptacle between an open position and a closed position, the two parts in the closed position defining a space making the orifice allowing the passage of the bags.
• the double bottom is removable. It is then carried out in a single part.
• the double bottom also has locking means making it possible to keep it in the closed position of use and, in particular a locking device making it possible to secure the double bottom in a particularly effective manner.
• the bottom of the receptacle is mounted on the side wall of the latter by pivoting or sliding.
• Figure 1 is a schematic view in vertical section of a bin receptacle according to the invention.
• FIG. 2 is a diagram of a strip of bags used for the implementation of the present invention.
• Figure 3 is a schematic top view of a bin receptacle according to the invention.
• FIG. 4 is a schematic view in vertical section of a bin receptacle as illustrated in Figure 1 showing the pivoting of the double bottom.
• the bin receptacle (1) comprises a bottom (2) and a side wall (3) contiguous to the bottom and having opposite the latter a flange (4) delimiting an opening (5). This opening (5) is thus located substantially opposite the bottom (2).
• the receptacle (1) has, in addition, a double bottom (6) which delimits with the bottom (2), a compartment (7) in the lower part of the receptacle whose usefulness will be explained later.
• the double bottom (6) comprises an orifice (8) preferably of oblong shape, for example rectangular as illustrated in FIG. 3.
• this orifice (8) will be located in the middle part of the double bottom (6).
• a reserve of bags is placed in the compartment (7) of the receptacle (1). According to the invention, these bags are successively connected to each other in a detachable manner.
• these bags are joined together in the form of a strip (1 1) precut so that each bag (9) is connected by its closed end (9a) at the opening end (9b) of the next bag (9 ') and so on for the other bags (9 ", 9'", ).
• this strip of bags (1 1) may advantageously be arranged in a roll (not shown) or alternately folded transversely to its length, according to a given spacing, for example the length d 'a bag (9), in order to obtain, in the end, substantially a package (not shown) substantially of parallelepiped shape.
• the double bottom (6) is pivotally mounted on the internal face (12) of the side wall (3) of the receptacle (1), for example by means of a hinge (not shown) whose pivot axis is inscribed in a plane parallel to that of the bottom (2), between a closed position (A) and an open position (B).
• This hinge will advantageously be provided with an elastic element so that the double bottom (6) returns to its closed position for normal use as shown in Figure 1.
• the double bottom has two parts (6a, 6b). Each part is pivotally mounted on the inner face (12) of the side wall in the same manner as described above for the double bottom in a part pivotally mounted.
• the double bottom (6) can be removable.
• the inner face of the side wall of the receptacle will then have a peripheral rim on which the peripheral edge of the double bottom will come to rest.
• the double bottom (6) When the double bottom (6) is mobile (in one or two parts) or removable, it will also include locking means in the closed position (A) for normal use.
• the bottom (3) can be removable.
• the bottom (3) can be sliding.
• the side wall of the receptacle will comprise, on the internal face, a slide capable of receiving the peripheral edge of the bottom (3).
• the bottom can also be pivotally attached to the side wall of the receptacle, for example by means of a hinge between a closed position and an open position. This bottom will then include locking means in the closed position of use.
• the double bottom (6) and / or the bottom (3) are mobile or removable, allows the user to easily access the interior of the compartment (7) in order to replenish the latter with non-plastic bags.
• a first bag (9) is drawn from the compartment (7) through the orifice (8) of the double bottom (6) to fill the volume. (10) of the receptacle (1) intended to receive garbage and detritus.
• the opening end (9b) of said bag (9) is folded over the outer part of the rim (4) of the side wall (3) of the receptacle (1).
• the bag (9) in which the garbage has been deposited is removed towards the outside of the bin, which has the consequence of gradually extracting, through the orifice (8), a new bag (9 ') of the compartment (7).
• the bag (9) is connected to the next one (9 ') in a sufficiently solid manner to allow it to be extracted from the compartment (7) but, however, detachably to allow a user to detach them by tearing.
• the new bag is repositioned in the same way as the previous bag (9) in the receiving volume of the receptacle (1) of trash.
• the opening of said bin receptacle can be closed, in conventional manner, using a removable cover.
• This bin receptacle can also be positioned in the container of a conventional bin.
• the receptacle for household trash as just described can be made, without limitation, of plastic, wood or metal and in multiple forms (cylindrical, parallelepiped, etc.).
• Household use means use in all areas of the house (bathroom, kitchen, bedrooms, living room, etc.) and also in the car, office, etc.
