JPH10181804A - Telescopically compressible trash can - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a convenient telescopically compressible trash can which is adapted to be telescopically compressed in a single operation so as to compress trash held therein through its reduced volume for receiving more trash as well as automatically revert to its original state. SOLUTION: A telescopically compressible trash can comprises a can body and a lid body 4. The can body is constituted of an upper body 1 mounted with a compression rod 3a, and a lower body 2 mounted with a spring holder 3 for holding therein a compression spring 3b. The upper body 1 is slidable downward on the lower body 2. The lid body 4 mounted on the upper body 1 is internally fitted with an inner lid 5 which is provided with an extension spring 6b stretched between a compression plate 6a fixed at the lower tip of a compression handle 6 inserted therethrough and the inner side thereof at the uppermost position.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a waste container capable of reducing the volume by compressing the whole waste container to reduce the volume of dust inside the container.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a waste container has a fixed volume of a container body, and every time a user tries to pack more garbage, he or she feels discomfort in his hand or the operation is unexpectedly troublesome. Yes, I couldn't wipe out the annoyance.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of such a conventional situation, and can compress the whole container by one-touch operation, reduce the volume of refuse, and put a larger amount of waste. Provides a convenient waste bin with a mechanism that automatically restores its original shape.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a spring housing 3 for storing a compression coil spring 3b in a main body upper part 1 and a main body lower part 2, and a compression rod 3a at two locations at equal intervals. The container body of the above-mentioned type, in which the inner lid 5 for connecting the compression handle 6, the tension coil spring 6 b and the compression plate 6 a is rotatably mounted inside the lid body 4 and installed on the upper part 1 of the main body. It is a compression type waste container integrated with the lid body.

[0005] In the above structure, a compression type waste container having different sizes on the outer periphery so that the upper body 1 and the lower body 2 can slide without a gap.

In each of the above constructions, the spring housing 3 has a cylindrical shape whose outer periphery is slightly larger than the compression rod 3a so as to be able to slide without any gap, and houses the cylindrical compression coil spring 3b. This is a compression type waste bin that automatically returns to its original shape by using the stability of 3b.

In each of the above constructions, the uppermost part of the compression rod 3a is fixed to the upper part 1 of the main body, and the spring housing 3 for storing the compression coil spring 3b is fixed to the lower part 2 of the main body. The upper part of the main body 1 by the stability of 3b
Is a compression waste bin that automatically returns to its original shape.

Then, in each of the above configurations, the lid body 4
The upper and lower ends of the inner lid 5 having a compression handle 6 penetrating through the upper through-hole 5a at both upper ends thereof so as to slide up and down, and a compression plate 6a fixed to the lowermost portion of the compression handle 6. Is a compression type waste container in a form in which is rotatably mounted.

Further, in each of the above structures, the uppermost inside of the inner lid 5 and the compression plate 6a are connected to the center position of the compression handle 6 by a tension coil spring 6b, so that the compression handle 6 and the compression plate 6a are connected to each other. This is a compression type waste container which automatically returns to the original shape by the restoring force of the tension coil spring 6b after the end of the compression operation.

[0010]

Operation and effect of the present invention As shown in FIG. 5, when the compression handle 6 is pressed with one hand, the upper part 1 of the main body slides downward and overlaps with the lower part 2 of the main body. Since 6a extends downward, it is possible to compress the dust inside the container and reduce the volume by one-touch operation.

After the end of the compression operation, when the user releases the hand, the upper portion 1 of the main body can be automatically slid up to the original shape by the restoring force of the compression coil spring inside the spring housing 3. Become.

At the same time, due to the restoring force of the tension coil spring 6b connected to the compression plate 6a and the inner lid 5, the compression plate 6a and the compression handle 6 slide upward to automatically return to the original shape, and the dust is removed. The whole can be returned to the original shape at the same time.

[0013]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In FIG. 1, a main body upper part 1 and a main body lower part 2 are a container main body, and the main body upper part 1 slides downward. Then, a lid main body 4 having a rotatable inner lid 5 for putting dust inside is installed on the main body upper part 1 and the compression handle 6 is pushed downward, whereby the main body upper part 1 slides downward and the volume of the entire container is increased. Is reduced, and at the same time, the volume of dust is significantly reduced by the compression of the compression plate 6a. After the compression operation is completed, the upper portion 1 of the main body, the compression handle 6 and the compression plate 6a automatically return to the original shape by the restoring force of the compression coil spring 3b and the extension coil spring 6b, and the entire waste container is simultaneously restored to the original shape. This is a compression-type waste container that can be restored to the shape of.
