Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a garbage container.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When a container having an opening at the top is used mainly for the purpose of collecting dust, when the dust is put directly into the container, and when a dust bag made of synthetic resin (a dedicated bag for dust) is used in the container. Not only that, but it also contains a bag for carrying shopping items, etc.) and puts dust into this garbage bag, but the point that the inside of the garbage container is not contaminated by dust and the dust Recently, it is often used with the garbage bag pre-stored in the container because it does not need to be replaced with another container such as a garbage bag when it is taken out from the container and discarded, and it becomes easier to collect dust. Is coming.

However, when the garbage bag is stored in the garbage container and used, unless the open end of the garbage bag is fixed to the garbage bag, the garbage bag is used as a container when dust is thrown into the garbage bag. There is a problem that it falls into the inside and the dust in the garbage bag leaks into the garbage container. There is also a problem that it is difficult to put waste into the waste bag. Therefore, the applicant of the present invention provides an engaging hole in the peripheral wall of the opening of the container,
A garbage container provided with bag holding means which is adapted to enter the inside of the opening and engage the engaging projection provided on the outer wall surface with the engaging hole (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-219501).
Is proposed first.

That is, in this waste container, the periphery of the opening of the waste bag is sandwiched between the bag holding means that has entered the inside of the opening and the peripheral wall of the opening, and a part of the waste bag is engaged by the engaging projections. The opening of the dust bag is held in the open state and fixed by facing the inside of the engaging hole together with the protrusion.

[0005]

However, the waste container with the bag holding means is capable of holding the opening portion of the waste bag housed in the container as described above, and can hold the waste bag in the open state. It is an excellent garbage container that can solve
There were the following problems. That is, in this dust container, since the bag holding means must be separately provided in the dust container, the number of parts increases, and the manufacturing cost and productivity are poor. Further, since the engaging hole must be provided in the peripheral wall of the opening of the waste container, the engaging hole portion must have a structure called an undercut when the injection container is intended to be obtained by injection molding. Therefore, the die structure becomes complicated, maintenance is complicated, and the die manufacturing cost becomes high.

In view of such circumstances, the present invention is capable of holding the opening of the dust bag accommodated in the dust container in an open state, has a small number of parts, and is excellent in productivity. Both of them aim to provide a garbage container having a simple mold structure and capable of manufacturing the mold at low cost.

[0007]

In order to achieve such an object, the waste container according to the present invention is a synthetic resin waste container having an opening at the top, and the waste bag is housed in the waste container. A plurality of slits having a width that allows a part of the periphery of the opening to be inserted are provided from the edge of the opening of the waste container toward the bottom.

In the above structure, not only the dedicated bag for collecting the garbage but also a bag with a handle for putting shopping items can be used as the garbage bag. Further, in the case of a bag with a carrying handle, the peripheral edge of the opening includes not only the peripheral edge of the opening but also the part of the carrying hand.

[0009]

According to the above construction, the dust bag is accommodated in the container, and a part of the periphery of the opening of the dust bag is exposed in the slit. As a result, the periphery of the opening of the dust bag is supported by the portion between the slits, and the dust bag is held in the open state. In molding, a protrusion corresponding to the slit may be provided on the mold surface of the movable mold or the fixed mold.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings showing the embodiments thereof. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a waste container according to the present invention. FIG.
As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 2, this garbage container 1 has an opening 11 at the top and has a truncated pyramid shape whose cross section gradually decreases toward the bottom 12, and the periphery of the opening 11 is outward. It is folded back so that it has a substantially U-shaped cross section.

Further, among the four side walls, slits 2 and 2 are provided in the folded-back portion 14 extending from the pair of side walls 13 and 13 facing each other. The slit 2 is shown in FIG.
As shown in, the side wall surfaces 21 and 21 that are provided from the edge of the opening 11 toward the bottom 12 are parallel to the central axis of the waste container 1.

As shown in FIG. 1, the trash container 1 includes, as a trash bag, a sack 3 made of synthetic resin, for example, which is used as a trash bag and is used for storing shopping items having the carrying hands 31, 31 around the opening 32. Can be housed in That is, when this bag 3 is used as a garbage bag, a part of the carrying hand 31 is inserted into the slits 2 and 2, and the slit 2 of each side wall 13 is inserted.
By locking the carrying hand 31 to the portion 22 sandwiched between the slits 2, the bag 3 can be held and fixed with the opening 32 opened. Therefore, the garbage container 1
Even if dust is thrown into the bag 3 stored in the
It will not fall inside.

Moreover, unlike the previously proposed waste container, this waste container 1 does not require additional bag holding means and the number of parts is reduced. Therefore, the assembly cost and the manufacturing cost can be reduced. Also, the opening 1
Since only the slit 2 is provided from the end edge of 1 toward the bottom 12 direction, the waste container 1 can be molded only by providing the projection corresponding to the slit 2 on the mold surface of the movable mold or the fixed mold.

That is, it is not necessary to provide a complicated structure such as an undercut to the mold, the manufacturing cost of the mold can be reduced, and the maintenance can be simplified. FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the waste container according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, this waste container 4
Is the same as the above-mentioned waste container 1 except that the folded portion is not provided and the peripheral edge of the opening 41 has a so-called bead shape whose thickness is thicker than other portions.

The waste container according to the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the above embodiment, the container has a truncated pyramid shape, but it may have a truncated cone shape. Further, in the above embodiment, the both side wall surfaces 21 of the slit 2 are parallel to the central axis, but at least one side wall surface 2
1 may be inclined with respect to the central axis.

Further, in the above embodiment, the folded-back portions 14 and 14 extending from the pair of side wall surfaces 13 and 13 facing each other.
Although two slits 2 and 2 are provided in the above, three or more slits may be provided.

[0017]

Since the waste container according to the present invention is configured as described above, it is of course possible to hold and fix the opening of the waste bag accommodated in the waste container in the open state, and also to separately use the bag. Since it is not necessary to attach a component having a holding means, the number of components is small and the assembly cost can be suppressed. Moreover, since the mold structure can be simplified,
It is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost of the mold and also the manufacturing cost of the waste container itself.

Further, since the structure of the mold is simple, the mold can be easily maintained.
