Description

Paint bucket

The present invention relates to a storage tank, and more particularly to a paint bucket for storing paint.

Generally, the paint bucket is removed by a lid, and the user inserts the finger into the gap between the lid and the barrel, and the lid is opened with the finger as a point of application. However, when opening a larger type of lid, the finger can not obtain sufficient force-applying area, and the contact area between the lid and the barrel is increased, so it is more difficult to apply force to separate the lid from the barrel.

In order to ensure the quality and preservation time of the paint, many paint buckets use a screw cap structure with better sealing performance, but the screw cap structure also greatly increases the contact area between the bucket body and the lid of the bucket, and the user is difficult to use only by hand. The surface of the lid is looking for a point of application, so the process of opening the lid is time consuming and laborious, resulting in inconvenience in use.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a paint bucket that can be used to open the lid of the can with the auxiliary force applied.

Therefore, the new paint bucket comprises a barrel for containing paint, an outer cover covering the top of the barrel, and a cover disposed on the outer cover. The auxiliary force applying structure of the top surface. The auxiliary urging structure includes a frame portion disposed on a top surface of the outer cover and surrounding an open slot, and two protruding portions symmetrically disposed on an outer edge of the frame portion and protruding outward, and two protrusions Each of the two ends is respectively disposed on the spare handle portion of the protruding portion, and a plurality of latch portions respectively symmetrically disposed on the frame portion and located in the open slot, and extending laterally toward the center of the open slot .

The effect of the present invention is that the open slot of the auxiliary force-applying structure and the latching portion can cooperate with a tool for facilitating the user's force to reduce the difficulty of opening or tightening the cover. The spare handle portions of the easy-applied force directly open or tighten the outer cover without using a manufacturing tool, which increases convenience and versatility.
