Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a pedal-operated container used to store dust and the like.

Containers that have a lid attached to the top of the container housing the inner container, and which can be opened by pressing down on a pedal provided at the front of the bottom of the container, allowing dust to be poured into the inner container and the inner container to be taken out. It is widely used as an indoor dust storage pot.

Closing the top opening in a container as described above is
This is achieved by the overlapping surfaces of the lid and upper frame in the closed position, but if the lid and upper frame overlap in only one place, it is not possible to obtain a sufficient sealing function, and the odor prevention of stored dust is prevented. The problem is that it is difficult.

This idea was made to solve the above problems, and the purpose was to provide a pedal-operated container with excellent deodorizing properties by closing the opening at the top of the container body in two stages. be.

The structure of this invention is that the upper frame of the container body and the lid have overlapping surfaces, and an annular rib is provided around the inner surface of the lid.
The upper frame or the inner container is provided with a rising portion that fits into the rib, and odor control is performed in two stages.

This invention will be explained below based on the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

As shown in the figure, a container body 2 that houses a bucket-shaped inner container 1 is formed into a vertically elongated rectangular shape.
An annular upper frame 3 is fitted onto its upper end.

The upper frame 3 has a cross-sectional shape that includes a surface 5 that supports the lid 4 and a surface 6 that supports the inner container 1 at a part lower than this surface 5 on the inner periphery. A flange 7 that rests on the surface 6 is provided around the outer periphery of the flange 7 .

Hinges 8 are provided on both rear sides of the upper surface of the upper frame 3, and a circular shaft portion 9 supported by the hinges 8 is provided at the rear edge of the lid 4 placed on the upper frame 3. It can be freely raised and lowered around this circular shaft portion 9.

When the lid 4 is in the closed horizontal position,
A surface 11 where the lower surface of the peripheral wall 10 overlaps the surface 5 of the upper frame 3
Thus, the first deodorizing part for deodorizing is formed by the close contact between the two surfaces 5 and 11. Note that the peripheral wall 10 is omitted in the part where the circular shaft part 9 is provided, but in order to maintain the closed nature of this part, a wall 12 whose lower end overlaps the surface 5 is provided inside surrounding the circular shaft part 9. .

An annular rib 13 is provided on the lower inner surface of the lid 4 and projects downward. In the illustrated case, the rib 13 is formed in the same shape as the upper end opening of the inner container 1 so as to fit therein.

Further, a rising part 14 is provided at the upper end of the inner container 1 and fits over the rib 13, and when the lid 4 is in the closed position, the rib 13 and the rising part 14 fit together to form a second deodorizing part. are doing.

The rib 13 and the rising portion 14 are formed so as to fit together with a small gap that does not interfere with the opening/closing movement of the lid 4, and the fitted portion obstructs air permeability, thereby preventing odor. It is meant to be effective.

The lid 4 is connected to a pedal 15 attached to the lower part of the container body 2 by a push-up rod 16, and when the pedal 15 is depressed, the lid 4 is pushed up to the upright position.

In addition, in order to release the pusher rod 16, the diagonal corner portions of the inner container 1 are arranged as shown in FIG.
A notch 17 is provided in a portion of the flange 7 and the rising portion 14.
is provided.

The container of this invention has the above-mentioned structure, and when the pedal 15 is not depressed with the inner container 1 housed in the container body 2, the lid 4 falls down and the upper frame is closed as shown in the figure. 3, the surfaces 5 and 11 are in close contact with each other, and the ribs 13 and the rising portions 14 are fitted, forming a two-stage deodorizing section and deodorizing the dust stored in the inner container 1. ing.

When the pedal 15 is depressed, the lid 4 is pushed up to the open position by the push rod 16, and dust can be put into the inner container 1 and the inner container can be taken out and put in.

As described above, according to this invention, the upper frame of the container body and the lid placed on the upper frame form an overlapping surface for deodorizing and sealing, and an annular rib is provided on the inner surface of the lid, and the upper frame or the inner container A rising part that fits into the rib allows for two-step deodorization of dust inside the inner container to the outside, greatly improving deodorization performance and making it comfortable to use as an indoor dust container. You will be able to do it.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]
