[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a container cover for covering the periphery of a container such as a trash can, which has a substantially box-like shape and is capable of accommodating the container in and out.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a trash can, which is an example of a container, there is a pail or the like, which is used at a gas station, for example, and is usually used in an exposed state.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 By the way, since such a trash can easily gets dirty, it was hoped that it could be used cleanly for a long time. In addition, when used in an environment where the wind blows through, the wind could cause the product to fall and roll around the premises of gas stations, causing the contents to be scattered. The present invention solves such a problem.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a container cover according to the present invention comprises an upper cover and a lower cover which are separable in the vertical direction, and these upper and lower covers are fitted to each other to form one substantially box-shaped body. In addition to forming the container, a charging port is formed at the top of the upper cover, and a container support for supporting the container is provided above the bottom inside the lower cover, and the weight is provided in the space on the bottom side of the container support. Is filled.

[0005]

[Action]

 A weight is put in advance on the bottom side in the lower cover, and a container is further put in the lower cover to be supported on the container support. Then, cover the lower cover with the upper cover, and fit the lower cover and the upper cover so that they overlap.

Thus, the upper cover and the lower cover form one substantially box-shaped body, and articles such as dust can be put into the container through the input port formed at the top of the upper cover. The container can be removed from the lower cover by removing the upper cover.

Further, even when used in an environment where the wind blows through, the weight is filled in the lower cover, so that the container cover does not easily fall over even if the wind blows, and the upper cover fits with the lower cover. Is hard to come off.

【Example】

 An embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 1 is an exploded view of the component parts according to the embodiment, FIG. 2 shows the external shape of the product in use, and FIG. 3 shows its sectional structure.

As shown in FIG. 2, the container cover 1 of the present embodiment is used by being placed around a weighing machine S or the like in a place where wind blows through, such as a gas station, and can be separated in the vertical direction. It is composed of an upper cover 2 and a lower cover 3 that are configured and can accommodate a waste can 4 inside.

Each of the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 3 can be manufactured by using a resin having a good fire resistance such as a phenol resin. Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the dust can 4 is a pail can that opens upward, which is one specific example of the container of the present invention, and is provided with a handle 5 at the top.

The upper cover 2 is a box-shaped body that opens downward, has a top portion 6 and side surfaces 7, and a charging port 8 is formed at the center of the top portion 6. The opening edge of the charging port 8 forms an inwardly inclined wall 9 so as to face the opening of the dust can 4 (see FIG. 3).

The lower cover 3 is a box-shaped body that opens upward, and the upper opening 10 has a frontage that allows the dust can 4 to be put in and taken out, and has a size that can be fitted into the downward opening of the upper cover 2.

The lower cover 3 has a side surface 11 and a bottom portion 12, and inside thereof, a container support portion 13 is provided apart from the bottom portion 12 and upward. The container support portion 13 is a shelf plate-shaped member on which the dust can 4 is placed, and a weight loading / unloading hole 14 for loading / unloading the weight is formed in the center, and the periphery is supported by the upper end of the rib 11a.

As is apparent from FIG. 3, the rib 11 a is formed integrally with the lower cover 3 and extends along the inner surface of the side surface 11 upward from the bottom portion 12 to a height at which the container support portion 13 is provided.

A space between the container support portion 13 and the bottom portion 12 forms a weight chamber 15, and a weight such as a fluid such as water and a granular material such as sand or pebbles is passed through the weight inlet / outlet hole 14 into the weight chamber 15. 16 can be moved in or out or the filling amount thereof can be adjusted.

The bottom portion 12 has a curved surface curved so that the central portion is recessed upward, and when the weight 16 is put into the weight chamber 15 and the lower cover 3 is placed on the ground or the like, the lower cover 3 is more stable. It is configured so that it does not easily fall.

The container support 13 supports the bottom of the waste can 4 when it is stored, and when the lower cover 3 is covered with the upper cover 2 in this state, the container support 13 extends from the top 6 to the top 6. The height H is almost the same as the height of the trash can 4.

In a usage state in which the upper cover 2 is covered on the upper portion of the lower cover 3 accommodating the trash can 4 and the openings of both are fitted together, the container cover 1 as a whole covers the periphery of the trash can 4. It has a box shape.

In this usage state, the lower portion of the side surface 7 of the upper cover and the upper portion of the side surface 11 of the lower cover fit each other, so that the overlapping portion having the height dimension h occurs in the fitted portion. .

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described. First, in FIG. 1, an appropriate weight 16 is filled into the weight chamber 15 through the weight loading / unloading hole 14 of the container support portion 13 previously put in the lower cover 3, and then the waste can 4 is placed in the lower cover 3. And place it on the container support 13.

When the upper cover 2 is further covered from above the lower cover 3, as shown in FIG. 3, the upper cover 2 covers the upper portion of the lower cover 3, and the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 3 are fitted around the opening. Together, they overlap with each other in the height dimension h, and the inclined wall 9 faces the opening of the dust can 4.

In this state, even if the lower cover 3 is placed in a place where the wind blows through, such as a gas station, the lower cover 3 is stabilized by the weight 16 filled on the side of the curved bottom portion 12, so that the lower cover 3 does not easily fall. Therefore, there is less risk that the contents will be scattered.

Moreover, since the upper cover 2 overlaps the upper portion of the lower cover 3 in the height direction dimension h, it is difficult for the upper cover 2 to easily come off due to wind or the like. Therefore, even if the trash can 4 is used in such an environment as shown in FIG. 2, the trash can 4 can be used in a state in which it is difficult to be seen, and therefore, the trash can 4 can be used for a long period of time without being concerned about dirt.

To discard the contents of the trash can 4, as shown in FIG. 3, the upper cover 2 can be easily removed by placing the hand 17 on the inclined wall 9 and lifting the upper cover 2. After that, the trash can 4 can be taken out from the lower cover 3 by holding the handle 5.

As described above, the slanted wall 9 serves as a grip when the upper cover 2 is attached to and detached from the lower cover 3, and when the dust can 4 is put in the upper cover 3 to be used, a throw-in object such as dust is thrown in. It is also very convenient because it also serves as a guide surface for reliably guiding the inside of the trash can 4.

It should be noted that the present application is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modes are possible. First, the shape of the container cover 1 is not limited to the rectangular tube shape, but various shapes such as a cylindrical shape, a triangular tube shape, and a heart-shaped tube shape are possible.

The material of the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 3 is not limited to resin, and various materials can be used, and the outer surface can be appropriately coated or printed. In addition, the upper cover 2 can be fitted inside the lower cover 3.

Further, the container support portion 13 is not limited to a separate member having a shelf plate shape, and may be, for example, a boss-shaped portion itself rising from the center side of the bottom portion 12. Alternatively, the rib 11a may be omitted and the side surface 11 of the lower cover 3 may be bonded.

[0029]

[Effect of device]

 In the container cover of the present invention, the upper cover and the lower cover can be separated into upper and lower parts, and both of them are fitted around each opening and overlap each other with a predetermined size, and the container support is integrally provided in the lower cover. The weight was filled in the space on the bottom side of the container support.

Therefore, even when it is used in a place where the wind blows through, it is hard to fall, the contents are less likely to be scattered, and the upper cover is less likely to come off. In addition, since the container can be used with almost no appearance, it can be used for a long time without being affected by the degree of contamination of the container itself.
