Description

  The present invention relates to a trash can.

  In recent years, many storage shelves that can store trash bins inside drawers have been released due to aesthetic problems. Such storage shelves generally return to the direction in which the drawer is automatically pushed when the force to pull out the drawer is released in consideration of convenience. However, when throwing garbage into the trash bins stored in such storage shelves, it is necessary to pull out the drawer, open the trash bin lid, and throw out the trash. This requires two operations: a drawer operation and a trash bin lid opening operation. It was. At this time, if the trash was held in one hand, it was difficult to open the trash box lid while pulling out the drawer with the other vacant hand.

  Here, a trash can whose trash can lid is opened with the movement of the trash can main body is known (see, for example, cited document 1). However, in this trash can, the trash can is installed on the revolving door, and the direction of movement of the trash can (circumferential direction with the vertical axis of the revolving door as the center of rotation) and the rotational axis of the trash can lid are not orthogonal. In addition, an excessive force is required to open and close the trash can cover, and there is a possibility that the trash can may be damaged due to an excessive torsional force generated on the rotating shaft of the trash can cover.

Utility Model Registration No. 3098120

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a trash box that can smoothly open and close the trash can cover as the trash box body moves.

According to the first device of the present application, the trash can is housed in a drawer that can reciprocate in the pull-out direction and the push-in direction, and is detachably fixed.
Here, the trash can can be rotated by a trash can main body that can be reciprocated in the pull-out direction and the push-in direction in conjunction with the movement of the drawer, and a rotation shaft that is provided at the upper edge of the trash can main body and orthogonal to the pull-out direction. And a trash can lid that is supported and covers an upper surface opening of the trash can body.
Then, when the trash can body moves in the pulling direction, the trash can lid is rotated in the opening direction by restricting movement of the trash can cover in the pulling direction by the restricting means.

Here, the restricting means is a string-like body in which one end is detachably fixed to the upper portion of the trash can lid on the pulling direction side from the rotation shaft and the other end is detachably fixed to a fixed object above the trash can lid. is there.
When the trash box body moves in the push-in direction, the trash box lid rotated in the opening direction is released from the restriction by the restricting means, and is rotated in the closing direction by its own weight to seal the upper surface opening.

As a result, the trash can cover also moves with the movement of the trash can body in the pull-out direction, but the trash can cover is restricted by the string-like body and rotates in the opening direction around the rotation shaft. At that time, since the rotation shaft is orthogonal to the pulling direction, the trash can lid rotates smoothly.
Therefore, it is possible to provide a trash can that can smoothly open and close the trash can lid as the trash can body moves.

Note that the trash can lid that has been rotated in the opening direction is unregulated when the trash can body moves in the pushing direction, and the string-like body loosens, so that it rotates in the closing direction due to its own weight and seals the top opening. To do.
Since the string-like body is detachable from the fixed object and the trash box lid, the string-like body can be removed, and the trash box can be taken out from the drawer by removing the string-like body. Furthermore, the opening degree of the trash can lid can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the string-like body.

According to the second device of the present application, the trash box is provided with a protruding portion at the upper part of the trash box lid on the side in the pushing direction from the rotation shaft as the restricting means. And the upper end part of this protrusion part contact | abuts the fixed object above a trash box lid | cover in the case of the movement to the pull-out direction of a trash box main body.
As a result, the trash can lid also moves with the movement of the trash can body in the pull-out direction. However, the trash can lid is restricted from moving by the projecting portion, and rotates in the opening direction with the rotation shaft as the center of rotation. At this time, since the rotation axis is orthogonal to the pulling direction, the trash can lid smoothly rotates as in the first device.
In addition, since the protruding portion is provided on the upper portion of the trash can lid on the push direction side from the rotation shaft, it is difficult to see from the outside and is not conspicuous, so that the aesthetic appearance of the storage shelf in which the trash can are stored is not impaired.

1 is an overall perspective view of a trash can (Example 1). FIG. (Example 1) which is a side fragmentary sectional view around a trash box. (Example 2) which is a side fragmentary sectional view around a trash box. It is a side surface fragmentary sectional view around a trash box (modification). It is a side surface fragmentary sectional view around a trash box (modification).

  Hereinafter, the form for inventing is demonstrated based on an Example.

[Configuration of Example 1]
The structure of the trash can 1 of Example 1 is demonstrated using drawing.
The trash can 1 is, for example, stored and used in a drawer 2 that can reciprocate in the pull-out direction and the push-in direction at the bottom of the storage shelf.
The trash box 1 includes a trash box body 3 in which trash is stored, and a trash box lid 4 that covers the upper surface opening 3a of the trash box body 3 and prevents outflow of odor. Here, the trash can lid 4 is supported so as to be pivotable about a pivot shaft 5 provided at the upper edge of the trash can body 3.

  Here, the trash can 1 is detachably fixed to the bottom plate of the drawer 2 using, for example, an earthquake-resistant gel material. At this time, the trash can 1 is fixed to the drawer 2 so that the rotation shaft 5 is orthogonal to the pull-out direction of the drawer 2. For this reason, the trash can main body 3 can reciprocate in the pull-out direction and the push-in direction. The rotation shaft 5 supports the trash can lid 4 so as to be rotatable orthogonal to the pulling direction.

The trash can lid 4 is provided with a handle for opening and closing the trash can lid 4 at the upper part on the drawer direction side. And the one end part of the string-like body 6 is fixed to this handle so that attachment or detachment is possible. The other end of the string-like body 6 is detachably fixed to a support plate 8 of an upper drawer which is a fixed object 7 above the trash can lid 4.
That is, as shown in FIG. 2A, one end of the string-like body 6 is fixed to the handle on the upper portion of the trash can lid 4 on the pulling direction side from the rotating shaft 5, and the other end is fixed above the trash can lid 4. It is fixed to a support plate 8 that is an object 7.

  When the trash can body 3 is moved in the pull-out direction, the string-like body 6 is fully extended to restrict the movement of the trash can cover 4 in the pull-out direction as shown in FIG. It rotates in the opening direction with the moving shaft 5 as the center of rotation.

The trash can lid 4 rotated in the opening direction is unregulated when the trash can main body 3 moves in the push-in direction, the string-like body 6 is loosened, and is rotated in the closing direction by its own weight. The upper surface opening 3a is sealed as shown in FIG.
Therefore, the string-like body 6 functions as the restricting means 9 and governs the rotation of the trash can lid 4 in the opening direction and the closing direction in conjunction with the movement of the trash can main body 3 in the pulling direction and the pushing direction.

[Effect of Example 1]
The trash can 1 is rotatable by a trash can main body 3 fixed to a drawer 2 that can reciprocate in a pulling-out direction and a pushing-in direction, and a rotating shaft 5 that is provided at the upper edge of the trash can main body 3 and that is orthogonal to the pull-out direction. A trash can lid 4 that is supported and covers the upper surface opening 3 a of the trash can main body 3 is provided.
When the trash can body 3 is moved in the pulling direction, the trash can cover 4 is rotated in the opening direction by restricting movement of the trash can cover 4 in the pulling direction by the restricting means 9.

Here, the restricting means 9 is an upper drawer whose one end is detachably fixed to a handle on the upper part of the trash can lid 4 on the pulling direction side from the rotating shaft 5 and whose other end is a fixed object 7 above the trash can cover 4. The string-like body 6 is detachably fixed to the support plate 8 and the string-like body 6 extends to restrict the movement of the trash can lid 4 in the pull-out direction.
The trash can lid 4 rotated in the opening direction is unregulated when the trash can main body 3 moves in the push-in direction, and the string-like body 6 is loosened so that the trash can lid 4 is rotated in the closing direction by its own weight. Is sealed.

As a result, the trash can lid 4 also moves with the movement of the trash can body 3 in the pull-out direction. However, the trash can cover 4 is restricted from moving in the pull-out direction by the string-like body 6 and opens in the opening direction with the pivot shaft 5 as the pivot center. To turn. At this time, since the rotation shaft 5 is orthogonal to the pulling direction, the trash can lid 4 rotates smoothly.
For this reason, the trash can 1 which can open and close the trash can lid | cover 4 smoothly with the movement of the trash can main body 3 can be provided.
The trash can lid 4 rotated in the opening direction is rotated in the closing direction by its own weight when the trash can main body 3 moves in the pushing direction, so that the upper surface opening 3a is sealed. .

  Since the string-like body 6 is detachable from the fixed object 7 and the trash can lid 4, the string-like body 6 can be removed, and the trash box 1 can be taken out from the drawer 2 by removing the string-like body 6. it can. Furthermore, the opening degree of the trash can lid 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the string-like body 6. Specifically, the opening degree of the trash can lid 4 can be increased by exchanging the string-like body 6 with one having a short length, and the trash disposal can be facilitated.

[Configuration of Example 2]
The structure of the footwear 1 of Example 2 is demonstrated using FIG.
In the following embodiments, the same functional components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals.
As shown in FIG. 3A, the trash can 1 is provided with a projecting portion 10 on the upper portion of the trash can lid 4 on the push-in direction side from the rotating shaft 5 as the restricting means 9.
Here, the protruding portion 10 is, for example, an L-shaped metal fitting. When one side is fixed to the upper portion of the trash can lid 4, the other side functions as the protruding portion 10.

Then, when the upper end portion of the projecting portion 10 moves in the direction in which the trash box body 3 is pulled out, as shown in FIG. 3B, a support plate for the upper drawer which is a fixed object 7 above the trash box lid 4. 8, the further movement of the trash can lid 4 is restricted, and the trash can lid 4 rotates about the rotation shaft 5.
When the trash box body 3 moves in the pushing direction, the trash box lid 4 rotated in the opening direction is released from the restriction by the restriction means 9 as in the first embodiment, and the support plate 8 and the protruding portion of the upper drawer are released. The trash can lid 4 is rotated in the closing direction by its own weight while being in contact with 10. Then, the support plate 8 and the protruding portion 10 are separated from each other, and the upper surface opening 3a is sealed as shown in FIG.

[Effect of Example 2]
As a result, the trash can lid 4 also moves with the movement of the trash can main body 3 in the pull-out direction. However, the trash can lid 4 is restricted from moving by the projecting portion 10 and rotates in the opening direction around the rotation shaft 5 as the rotation center. . At that time, since the rotation shaft 5 is orthogonal to the pull-out direction, the trash can lid 4 rotates smoothly as in the first embodiment.
Since the protruding portion 10 is provided on the upper side of the trash can lid 4 on the push-in direction side from the rotation shaft 5, it is difficult to see from the outside and is not conspicuous, so that the aesthetic appearance of the storage shelf in which the trash can 1 is stored is not impaired.

[Modification]
Various modifications can be considered for the present invention without departing from the gist thereof.
According to the embodiment, the drawer 2 can be reciprocated in the horizontal direction, but the embodiment is not limited thereto. For example, the drawer 2 may be rotated about a drawer rotation shaft provided at the lower edge of the drawer 2 as shown in FIG. In this case, the pull-out direction and the push-in direction are set to a circumferential direction around the drawer rotation axis.

  According to the embodiment, the trash box is housed in the drawer 2 and is detachably fixed to the bottom plate of the drawer 2 by using the earthquake-resistant gel material, but the embodiment is not limited to this configuration. For example, the trash can 1 may be fixed to the drawer 2 using a back plate as shown in FIG. Here, the back plate is fixed to the bottom plate of the drawer 2, and the trash can 1 is housed and fixed in a space defined by the back plate and the drawer 2. In this case, when the movement of the trash can lid 4 in the pulling direction is restricted by the restricting means 9, a rotational moment is generated with the handle as an action point with respect to the trash can 1, but the trash can 1 is rotated by the presence of the back plate. Without being fixed in the drawer 2. In addition, since the trash can 1 is only stored, the trash can 1 can be easily taken in and out of the drawer 2.
