Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a garbage container lid.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a kitchen sink is provided with a garbage storage container commonly called a triangular corner or the like. This garbage storage container is designed for draining garbage,
The container body is formed of a mesh or is made of a porous body, but the garbage is not completely drained. To discard the accumulated garbage, move it from the sink to a trash can. The residual water at that time becomes sewage and drips around the kitchen, which is unhygienic.

[0003] Further, since the above-mentioned garbage storage container is generally not covered with a lid, the garbage inside is exposed, so that not only the appearance is unsanitary, but also the fly and the like are easy to fly. Has disadvantages.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and an object of the present invention is to provide a lid for a garbage storage container capable of holding the surroundings of a kitchen in a sanitary manner. And

[0005]

As shown in FIG. 1, a food waste container lid is provided with a side wall portion 20 having a height lower than that of the food waste container 10 placed at a corner of a sink of a kitchen. The trash storage container 10 is covered from above, and when it is turned over, the support legs 30 provided on the upper surface of the trash storage container 10 are self-supporting to receive the sewage in the raw trash storage container 10.

[0006]

In the present invention, the lid for the garbage storage container closes the opening 11 while covering the garbage storage container 10 to prevent the flies and the like from gathering in the stored garbage 70. The raw garbage 70 stored together with the side wall portion 20 is blocked from the view and the inside of the sink is kept clean.

On the other hand, in the state in which it is detached from the garbage storage container 10 and inverted, it becomes self-supporting by the support legs 30 and serves as a tray for the garbage storage container 10. The raw garbage storage lid used as a saucer is the sewage 7 dripping from the raw garbage storage container 10.
In order to prevent the water that became 1 from flowing out to the surroundings,
The area around the kitchen is kept hygienic.

If the support leg 30 does not have a flat portion having a sufficient area to make the lid for the garbage container independent, the inverted lid for the garbage container will be inverted.
In this case, the height of the side wall portion 20 is increased as much as possible because the part 1 is tilted in contact with the holding surface 80 to substantially reduce the available volume. , The storage volume of the waste juice 71 is increased.

Providing a knob on the garbage storage container lid is an effective modification for improving operability, particularly when moving the garbage storage container 10 to a trash box with the garbage storage container 10 mounted thereon. By providing the legs 30, it is possible to make the entire structure clear.

[0010]

1 and 2 show an embodiment of the present invention. The garbage storage container 10 is formed into, for example, a substantially fan shape in plan view in consideration of fitting into a corner of a kitchen sink, and a wall surface is formed in a mesh shape or a porous shape in order to make drainage good. At the same time, legs 12 are formed on the bottom wall.

The lid for the garbage storage container is made of a desirably non-rusting material such as stainless steel or synthetic resin, and has a receiving portion 60 having the side wall portion 20 hanging down from the entire periphery of the flat plate portion 50 and a flat plate portion. Support leg 3 projecting upward from 50
It consists of 0 and. The shape and size of the flat plate portion 50 are such that they do not interfere with washing work in the sink when the flat garbage storage container 10 is covered, and can be easily covered on the raw garbage storage container 10. Although it can be appropriately determined so as to be possible, it is formed in a substantially fan shape that is one size or two sizes larger than the shape of the opening 11 of the garbage storage container 10 and has a good fit in the corner portion of the sink. Is desirable.

On the other hand, the height of the side wall portion 20 is at least smaller than the height of the raw garbage storage container 10, and when the side wall portion 20 is covered with the raw garbage storage container 10, the lower edge is in contact with the sink surface 81. It is possible to prevent the sewage 71 that has flowed out of the trash container 10 from adhering. On the other hand, the height dimension of the side wall portion 20 can secure a sufficient volume for covering the garbage 70 in the garbage storage container 10 to make it inconspicuous, and for receiving the waste 71 as described later. In order to make it possible, it is desirable that the size is as large as possible, and the condition is determined in consideration of the appearance and the like when the garbage container 10 is put on the garbage container 10.

The support leg 30 includes a leg 31 projecting upward from the flat plate 50 and a flat support 32 formed at the upper end of the leg 31. The support leg 30 can be formed on the receiving portion 60 by integrally molding the receiving portion 60 with the receiving portion 60 when the receiving portion 60 is formed of, for example, a synthetic resin material. What is necessary is just to weld what was previously formed separately. The support portion 32 has a sufficient area so that the raw garbage container 10 can be turned upside down and can be erected while the raw garbage container 10 is placed on the receiving portion 60. In the example, the shape in plan view is formed into a circle, but it may be formed into a polygonal shape or a flower pattern shape or the like in consideration of design. Also, the size and height of the leg portion 31 are appropriately determined, but when the leg portion 31 is sandwiched between two fingers, the receiving portion 60 rides on the palm and the support portion 32 lightly touches the instep side. In the case of the dimensional relationship, the operability is improved.

Therefore, in this embodiment, usually
As shown in FIG. 1A, the opening 11 of the raw garbage storage container 10 is closed by covering the raw garbage storage container 10. In this state, the opening 11 of the garbage container 10
Dispersion of odors from the sea, fly flies, etc. are prevented. further,
The side wall portion 20 having an appropriate depth is provided for the garbage storage container 10
It prevents the garbage 70 inside from coming into contact with the eyes, and improves the appearance around the sink.

When processing the garbage 70 or cleaning the inside of the sink from this state, first, the garbage storage container lid is removed and inverted, and the garbage storage container 10 is placed on the back surface of the flat plate portion 50. After the garbage is placed, as shown in FIG. 1 (b), when the garbage storage container is placed in an appropriate position, the lid for the garbage storage container is self-supported by the support legs 30 in an inverted state. In this state, the garbage storage container lid serves as a tray for the sewage 71 and the like staying in the garbage storage container 10, and does not flow out to the peripheral portion, so that the periphery can be kept clean. In this case, it is also possible to provide a handle on the side wall of the garbage container 10 so that the garbage container can be moved to the lid for the garbage container without making the hands dirty.

Making the garbage container lid self-supporting by the support legs 30 is particularly effective when the garbage container 10 is temporarily placed on the garbage container lid.
The support leg 30 can be configured only as a knob for removing or attaching the lid for the garbage storage container. In such a configuration, the shape of the support leg 30 is simplified. In the case of integrally molding with 60, the mold manufacturing becomes easy, and even when the separately formed one is fixed to the receiving portion 60, as long as the leakage from the connecting portion is taken into consideration, screws and the like can be used. It is possible to adopt a simple method. In this manner, when the knob-shaped support legs 30 are formed, the top of the support legs 30 and the upper edge 21 of the side wall 20 are held in the inverted position of the garbage storage container lid as shown in FIG. It is placed on the surface 80 and tilted down,
Is reduced, the height of the side wall portion 20 is determined such that a sufficient substantial volume for storing the waste liquid 71 is secured. Further, when the side wall portion 20 is tilted when inverted, as shown in FIG.
By providing a protrusion or a ridge 22 on the inner wall of the container, the garbage storage container 10 is displaced to the side wall portion 20 side by its own weight,
It is possible to completely prevent the waste liquid 71 from flowing out along the side wall portion 20.

In the above description, the case where the support leg 30 has a function as a grip or a handle is shown, but the support leg 30 is made to function only as a leg for independence.
It is of course possible to form the knob 40 separately, as shown in FIG.
It is also possible to form the support leg 30 in the shape of a continuous closed curve as shown in FIG. 5 or to form a plurality of linear shapes as shown in FIG. In this case, when the knob portion 40 is formed on the upper surface of the flat plate portion 50, the height of the knob portion 40 is lower than the height of the support leg 30. When the support leg 30 and the knob 40 are separately formed, the knob 40 does not need to be provided on the flat plate 50, but can be provided on the side wall 20 as shown in FIG. When such a configuration is adopted, the support leg 30 can be easily formed by expanding a part of the flat plate portion 50, and is particularly effective when the lid for the garbage storage container is formed of a stainless plate or the like. It is.

[0018]

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, it is possible to treat raw garbage without causing residual waste in the raw garbage container to flow out to the surroundings.
The kitchen can be kept hygienic.
