Garbage box with garbage bag opening/closing means

The present invention relates to a trash can with a trash bag opening / closing means in which the mouth of the trash bag is opened / closed in conjunction with a lid opening / closing means for opening / closing the lid by stepping on a pedal.

Conventionally, when storing a garbage bag that holds kitchen garbage such as vegetables and fish that are produced during cooking, a trash can that opens and closes with a foot-operated top lid is often used. If you store the garbage that has been thrown away and put in the front in this trash can, the garbage will be easily spoiled. Therefore, when you open the lid and throw away the garbage next time, when you open the lid, the inside will be affected by the opening momentum. The rotting odor accumulated in the waste is discharged together and diffused, and the garbage thrower directly smells the bad odor, and the current situation is that each time the garbage is thrown in, the person feels uncomfortable. Especially in the summer, garbage is very easy to putrefy and small flies are likely to occur, which is not preferable in terms of hygiene. Therefore, immediately after putting the kitchen waste into the garbage bag stored in the trash can, close the mouth of the trash bag by hand, and when using it next time, open the mouth of the trash bag by hand after the lid is opened. It is possible to prevent the foul odor from spreading considerably by closing the mouth of the garbage bag by hand immediately after adding new kitchen waste.<patcit num="1"><text>Registered Utility Model No. 3000365</text></patcit>

<p> However, if the mouth of the garbage bag is opened and closed by hand before and after the garbage bag is put into the garbage bag stored in the trash can, the rotten juice of the garbage and the dirt of the waste that adheres to the vicinity of the mouth of the garbage bag are easily attached to the hand. Therefore, the hands of the trash can are dirty, unpleasant, and unsanitary because germs can easily grow, and every time the mouth of the trash bag is opened and closed, and during the work, a large amount of rotten odor must be continuously inhaled. Since the work is troublesome, the trash bag is usually not opened and closed by hand, and most of the trash cans are simply covered. On the other hand, there is a registered utility model No. 3000365 as an improved product of the trash can. This trash can was proposed to prevent this fluttering because the fully opened lid flutters after the pedal is stepped on and operated in the direction in which the lid is opened. Therefore, there has been no conventional case in which the mouth of a garbage bag can be opened and closed without using a hand as in the present invention.</p><p> The present invention provides a trash can with a trash bag opening / closing means, in which the lid is opened / closed and the mouth of the trash bag is opened / closed by simply operating the pedal of the foot without touching the hands, and the rotting odor of kitchen waste does not easily leak to the outside. With the goal.</p>

<p> The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, that is, dust that opens and closes the mouth of a garbage bag to be stored in a lid opening / closing means in a trash can with a pedal whose lid is opened / closed by pedal operation.

(6) is a lid that opens when the pedal (21) is stepped on and is rotatably supported by the upper part of the trash can body (1), and the lid (6) is the upper surface (1a) of the trash can body (1). ) Is covered and sealed. The lid body (6) may be fitted onto the upper part of the trash can main body (1).

The operation of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. One of the mouths of the garbage bag (7) is attached and fixed to the locking tool (4) of the movable plate (312) in advance, and the other is attached and fixed to the locking tool (4) of the fixing plate (313). .. To dispose of kitchen waste first, step on the pedal (21) with your foot. Then, the tip of the operating arm (22) is lifted as shown in (a), and the push-up rod (24) is lifted to open the lid (6). At this time, when one end of the operating rod (321) attached to the middle portion of the push-up rod (24) is lifted, the tip of the connecting rod (322) rotates downward as shown in (b), and the wire ( 323) is pulled. This wire (323) moves the movable plate (312) as shown by the arrow shown in (c), and the mouth of the garbage bag (7) is opened. Then, the garbage can be put into the garbage bag (7). At this time, in the present invention, when the mouth of the garbage bag (7) is opened, the volume above the garbage bag (7) increases, so that the inside becomes decompressed and air is introduced from the outside to the inside. The phenomenon of pouring occurs. Therefore, the rotten odor of the kitchen waste that fills the inside of the garbage bag (7) does not have to be dissipated at once as in the past, and the rotten kitchen waste is covered by the newly introduced kitchen waste. The spout is suppressed, and the garbage thrower hardly smells the bad smell.

When the foot is released from the pedal (21) after the trash is thrown in, the tip of the operating arm (22) is lowered, and the lid (6) is lowered by its own weight to cover and close the upper surface (1a) of the trash can body (1). [See Figure 7 (f)]. At this time, the push-up rod (24) is pushed down, one end of the operating rod (321) attached to the middle portion of the push-up rod (24) is lowered, and the tip of the connecting rod (322) is indicated by the arrow shown in (f). The elastic force of the spring (324) attached to the tip of the wire (323) pulls back the wire (323) attached to the movable plate (312), and the movable plate (312) is of (d). It is returned to its original position. At this time, while the movable plate (312) is pulled back, the mouth of the garbage bag (7) is pulled inward and closed while the push plate (314) is bent inward. Then, as shown in (e), the movable plate (312) comes into contact with the fixed plate (313) and closes the mouth of the garbage bag (7). For this reason, there is no risk that part of the mouth of the garbage bag (7) will spread outward, and the mouth of the garbage bag (7) will be closed without fail, and the inside of the garbage box body (1) will be inside the conventional one. The accumulation of rotten odors of such garbage is drastically reduced. As described above, in the present invention, since the next garbage input is waited for with the mouth of the garbage bag (7) closed, the rotting odor of the kitchen garbage does not fill the inside of the garbage box body (1). Further, according to the present invention, the mouth of the garbage bag (7) can be opened and closed in accordance with the opening and closing operation of the lid (6) by simply operating the foot pedal without touching the hand. After that, when the garbage bag (7) is full, or on the day when the garbage is collected, the mouth of the garbage bag (7) is removed from the locking tool (4), and the garbage bag (7) is removed from the garbage bag holding case (7). Take it out of 5), close the mouth of the garbage bag (7), tie it, and take it to the garbage collection point. When the garbage bag holding case (5) is the one shown in FIG. 6, when the juice collects inside the case or when the upper edge (52) is damaged, the garbage bag (7) is used. ) And the garbage bag holding case (5) should be disposed of.

Next, when the product of the present invention and the conventional product are used, the degree of putrefactive odor at the time of putting in kitchen waste will be compared. First, prepare a trash can with an opening / closing lid of approximately the same capacity, and set a trash bag (7) inside it. Next, as experimental conditions, measure the temperature of the installation location (kitchen) at 8:30 am, 1 pm, and 7 pm, open the lid (6) every hour, and halve the raw vegetables and fish waste. , I put it in each trash can and confirmed the rotting odor. This odor was evaluated on a 5-point scale, with 1) none, 2) almost none, 3) slightly odor, 4) odor, and 5) considerable odor. The course of the experiment was 4 days. The reason for this four days is that garbage is generally collected two to three times a week, and kitchen waste is rarely left for four days.

(table 1)<u style="single"> Daytime temperature Genuine product Product </u> Day 1 Morning 21 ° C No No Noon 22 ° C No No <u style="single"> Night 23 ° C No No </u> Day 2 Morning 23 ° C No Slightly Smell Noon 25 ° C No Slightly Smell<u style="single"> Night 26 ° C No Slightly smelly </u> Day 3 Morning 24 ° C Almost no smell Noon 26 ° C Almost no smell <u style="single"> Night 25 ° C Almost no smell </u> Day 4 Morning 23 ° C Almost no Smell Noon 26 ° C Almost no Smell Night 25 ° C Almost no Smell

When the product of the present invention is used in this way, even if the lid (6) is opened when the kitchen waste is put in, there is almost no putrid odor from the trash can body (1), so that the kitchen waste can be put in comfortably. .. Especially when the kitchen waste is thrown in the morning, the freshness of the morning can be thrown in comfortably without being disturbed.
