Description

  The present invention relates to a trash can, and more particularly to an improved creation of a pedal open / close trash can.

  Pedal opening / closing type that lifts the lid with a lifting / lowering member that moves up and down by the vertical movement of the pedal provided at the bottom of the trash box, while the lid is pivotally mounted with the rear end of the trash box as a pivotal support. Recycle bins are known (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

  Since the lid can be opened simply by stepping on the pedal with the tip of the foot, the trash can is convenient and widely used.

JP2003-112801A JP 2002-167001 A

  The above-mentioned pedal openable trash can is convenient for putting in large trash because the trash opening provided in the upper part of the trash can is greatly exposed by opening the lid, but even when throwing away small trash, the lid must be opened wide one by one. There was annoying trouble.

  In the above case, assuming a kitchen in which this kind of pedal-opening trash can is often used, even when a small trash is thrown away, it is thrown inside that the trash can is greatly exposed by opening the lid. Not only is the garbage exposed, it is not easy to see, but unpleasant problems such as odor emission occur.

  On the other hand, when throwing away small garbage, the degree of opening of the lid is moderated, and if the lid is opened and thrown into the gap through the gap between the lid and the trash can, the above problem can be solved. The problem was that the internal volume could not be fully utilized due to the bias toward the front of the trash can body.

  The invention of the present application was created for the purpose of providing a pedal open / close type trash can which solved the above-mentioned problems of the prior art. And a pedal opening / closing type trash box that is lifted by a lifting / lowering member that moves up and down by a vertical movement of a pedal provided below the trash box, and a second trash input port is provided in front of the cover body. A flap plate for closing the garbage inlet is provided so as to be rotatable downward in the lid, and an urging force in the closing direction is applied.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the above trash box, the flap plate that closes the second trash input port is provided with a pivotal support portion in front of the lid so that the rotating end faces the rear of the lid. It is characterized by.

  According to the trash bin of the present invention, in the pedal open / close type trash bin, the second trash input is provided in front of the lid, and therefore, when throwing away small trash, the second trash can be removed without opening the lid one by one. Since it can be thrown away from the inlet, it is easy to use, and the effect of preventing unsightlyness and odor emission is obtained.

  Further, in this case, the flap plate that closes the second dust input port is provided so as to be rotatable downward in the lid body and gives an urging force in the closing direction. It can be opened with a single touch, and the effect of being able to open the flap plate with a hand holding the garbage and throw it away is obtained.

  Further, in the case of the invention described in claim 2, the flap plate that closes the second dust input port is provided with the pivotal support portion in front of the lid so that the rotating end faces the rear of the lid. Since the front side of the trash box opens toward the center of the trash box, it is possible to prevent the thrown-in trash from being biased to the front of the trash box body, and the internal volume of the trash box can be fully utilized.

Sectional drawing of the 2nd garbage input port location of a cover body same as the above.

  Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the pedal opening and closing type of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the present invention, a lid is pivotally provided with a rear end of the waste bin as a pivotal support portion with respect to a dust inlet provided at the upper portion of the waste bin, and the lid is pushed up by a lifting member that moves up and down by a vertical movement of a pedal provided below the waste bin. It is carried out in a known pedal-opening trash can.

  In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a main body of a trash box made of a plastic material. The trash box main body 1 is a bottomed container with a rectangular cross section that is open with the trash input 6 as an upper portion, and a lid 10 is rotatably provided with respect to the trash input. The lid 10 is provided so as to be opened and closed with the pivot 11 at the end of the garbage inlet 6 and can be opened / closed directly by the user by holding the end of the lid, and the following mechanism that can be opened / closed by pedal operation is also provided. It is done.

  That is, a lifting rod 5 is arranged in the up and down direction behind the trash can main body 1 so as to freely move up and down, and after the pivoting rod 3 that pivots up and down like a seesaw with a pivot 7 provided on the bottom rear surface of the trash can main body as a fulcrum. The lower end of the lifting / lowering rod is connected to the end with the pivot portion 4, and the abutting portion 117 </ b> B at the upper end of the lifting / lowering rod is arranged to abut on the abutting portion 113 </ b> B provided near the pivot portion 11 on the back surface of the lid body 10. (See FIGS. 3 to 8). The pedal 2 that can be stepped on is projected from the lower front side of the trash box in front of the rotating rod 3, and the lid body 10 is pushed open by the lifting rod 5 that rises when the pedal is lowered ( (See FIG. 2B).

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, an engagement window 117A is provided in the contact portion 117B at the upper end of the lifting / lowering rod 5, and the engagement is performed from the center of the contact portion 113B on the back surface of the lid 10. An engaging protrusion 113A is provided to enter and engage the window 117A. Further, when the pedal 2 is raised (when the pedal 2 is not depressed), the contact portion 117B of the upper end of the lifting / lowering rod 5 is abutted against the back surface of the closed lid. It is set as the structure which leaves | separates from the contact part 113B.

  By adopting the above configuration, first, when the lid body 10 is pushed open by the elevating rod 5 that rises when the pedal is lowered, the engagement protrusion 113A of the contact portion 113B on the back surface of the lid body 10 is simultaneously raised and lowered. The lid 5 enters the engagement window 117A and is engaged, and the lid body is opened and closed following the pedal operation. Secondly, after the pedal is released and the lifting rod 5 is completely lowered, the lid is engaged. The engagement between the projection 113A and the engagement window 117A is released, and the lid body is free from pedal operation, so that the user can freely open and close it.

  Reference numeral 17 in the figure denotes a second dust input port provided in the lid body 10, which is open in the region of the front third of the lid body 10 here. The second dust input port 17 is closed by a flap plate 12 located on the back side of the lid body 10.

  The flap plate 12 is pivotally provided with a pivot portion so as to be rotatable downward in the lid. Here, the pivot portion is provided in front of the lid, and the pivot end of the flap plate faces the rear of the lid. ing. By doing so, the flap plate opens toward the center of the trash box with the front of the trash box as an axis, so that the thrown-in trash is prevented from being biased to the front of the trash box body (see FIGS. 2A and 3).

  The pivotal support portion is formed in the shaft hole of the bearing seats 13, 13 projecting the shafts 15, 15 projecting from both ends of the shaft seats 14, 14 projecting from the front end of the flap plate 12 on the front back surface of the lid body 10. It is configured by passing through a shaft (see FIGS. 10 and 12).

  Reference numerals 16 and 16 in the figure denote torsion coil springs for applying a biasing force in the closing direction of the second dust inlet to the flap plate 12. The torsion coil springs 16 and 16 have coil portions extrapolated to the shafts 15 and 15, with one end abutting against the back surface of the lid body 10 and the other end abutting against the back surface of the flap plate 12, so that the flap plate faces the lid body. Giving the urging force to rotate.
