Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a filth container used in a toilet, and more particularly to a filth container that can be used hygienically and that can eliminate odors generated from the filth. .

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a filth container attached to the inside of a toilet is a box-shaped container with a lid, and the lid is generally opened and closed by hand. In such a container, put a waste bag such as a vinyl bag in the container with the lid open, fold the opening edge of this bag from the opening edge of the container and attach it, and put the waste in this storage bag. I was told.

[0003]

As described above, the conventional filth container is not only unsanitary because the hand must come into contact with the lid when the filth is thrown in or the storage bag is exchanged, but also unpleasant odor is caused. It was what caused it. The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems of the prior art, and can be used to sanitarily insert and clean filth, and further can eliminate the bad odor generated in the toilet. The purpose is to provide a waste container.

[0004]

Therefore, according to the present invention, a waste container main body having a lid for opening and closing the waste container by operating the open / close pedal, and a waste container which is detachably accommodated in the waste container main body. And a deodorizing section for dissipating the deodorant provided in the waste container body.
The second feature is that the deodorizing portion is a deodorizing mechanism in which the deodorant diffused from the deodorant membrane impregnated with the deodorant is diffused by a diffusion fan. A third feature is that an odor-causing garbage bag containing an odorant such as peppermint oil (main component: menthol), camphor oil (main component: camphor), and methyl salicylate is attached to the waste container. To do.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the examples shown in the drawings. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a waste container according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the internal structure of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a partial sectional side view of FIG. 2, and FIGS. It is a perspective view which shows the other Example of the waste container which concerns on invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In FIGS. 1 to 3, reference numeral 1 designates a box-shaped sewage container whose upper surface is opened, and a storage space 4 is provided in the upper portion of the main body 1. A rectangular box-shaped waste container 2 having an open top is detachably accommodated. A handle 2a for suspending is attached to the upper end of the sewage storage container 2 approximately in the center so that it can be laid down, and the container 2 can be taken in and out of the waste container body 1 by grasping the handle 2a. ing. A waste storage bag 3 is attached to the waste storage container 2 with its opening edge folded back from the opening edge of the waste storage container 2, and the waste is put into the waste storage bag 3. . Here, the sewage storage bag 3 is an odorless garbage bag made of polyethylene and containing an odorant such as peppermint oil (main component: menthol), camphor oil (main component: camphor), and methyl salicylate. I'm using it. The disgusting trash bag is usually used for discarding general trash, but it suppresses the odor of putrefaction such as raw garbage and filth, and exerts an effect of repelling birds and beasts in a garbage yard or the like. Moreover, the components of the odorant are natural products and are highly safe.

An openable / closable lid 6 is attached to the sewage container main body 1, and this lid 6 depresses a foot pedal (open / close pedal) 5 provided at the lower end of the front surface of the sewage container main body 1 with a foot. It is designed to be opened and closed when the foot is removed, so that the user does not have to open and close the lid with his or her hands. That is, as shown in FIG.
When opening the V pedal, the foot pedal 5 is depressed by the foot, and one end side (rear end side: the foot pedal 5 side) of the V-shaped balance bar 14 having the fixed joint 17 at substantially the center thereof is lowered, whereby the V-shaped The other end side of the balance bar 14 (the tip side)
Moves upward, the tension rod 15 connected to the V-shaped balance rod 14 via the ignition joint portion 18 is pushed up, and the joint rod 16 connected to the tension rod 15 lifts and opens the lid 6. When the foot is separated from the foot pedal 5, the lid 6 is closed by its own weight.

A deodorizing mechanism (deodorizing section) S for deodorizing a bad odor generated from the waste is provided on the lower portion of the waste container main body 1.
Is provided. This deodorizing mechanism S is composed of the waste container body 1
The inner portion of the lower part of the deodorant membrane 12 is partitioned by two partition walls 11a and 11b in a hermetically sealed state, a diffusion fan 13 is attached to the upper partition wall 11a, and the lower partition wall 11b is impregnated with plant essential oil (phytoncide). It is supposed to be placed. The diffusion fan 13 is connected to a commercial power source by a power cord 7, is driven by turning on a switch 8, and removes the deodorant diffused from the deodorant membrane 12 into a plurality of diffusion slits 9 provided on the side surface of the waste container body 1. From outside to outside (toilet).

Further, the storage space 4 for the waste container 2
A plurality of deodorant ejection holes 10 are also formed at the upper end of the peripheral edge of the deodorant so that the deodorant diffused by the diffusion fan 13 can be ejected through the inner space around the storage space 4 of the waste container body 1. There is. Then, when the lid 6 is opened, the deodorant is vigorously ejected from the deodorant ejection hole 10 to deodorize so as to surround the bad odor generated from the dirt. Further, when the lid is closed, convection occurs along the inner wall surface of the lid 6 in the waste container 2, but most of the convection is discharged from the diffusion slit 9 to the outside to deodorize the toilet.
In addition, an insect screen (not shown) for preventing invasion of harmful insects such as cockroaches and mosquitoes into the diffusion slit 9 and the deodorant ejection hole 10
Has been applied.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various application modifications are possible. For example, a small type without a diffusion fan that can be used in the toilet of a general household,
It goes without saying that the size and shape can be freely designed according to the installation location, such as a large type used at a station or an airport. It can also be used as a diaper case for nursing care and as a garbage container for use in the kitchen of homes and restaurants. As the deodorant, various commercially available deodorants may be used instead of the plant essential oil. In addition, the filth storage bag can be appropriately substituted with various commercially available trash bags. Further, by mounting a human detection sensor and a timer linked thereto, the switch operation may be made unnecessary.

The waste container of the above embodiment is of a type that is set on the floor of the toilet, but there are various types of toilets, which are roughly classified into Japanese and Western styles, and the installation space may be limited. is there. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, the toilet paper holder 20 is integrally provided in the waste container so as to be placed in a gap (space) between the flush tank and the wall behind the toilet seat, and is fixed to the wall surface inside the toilet with metal fittings. Alternatively, it may be attached so that it can slide beside the toilet seat, or as shown in FIG. 5, it may be attached so as to cover the existing toilet paper holder 20. In this case, it is more preferable to separately provide the waste inlet 21 and the pull-out type waste container 22. The foot pedal may be a manual pedal depending on the mounting position (mainly the height). If the concept is further developed, if the waste container is designed as a toilet bowl, it can be practically used as a mobile simple toilet for care.

[0012]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has an excellent effect that it is possible to hygienically insert and clean filth and to eliminate the bad odor generated in the toilet. is there.
