• the closing body includes a deodorizing portion disposed in the vicinity of the insertion opening, it is possible to efficiently remove odors rising from the inside of the container body.
• the deodorizing portion When the deodorizing portion is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the insertion portion so as to protrude inward, the deodorizing portion has a larger area exposed to the air (odor) inside the container body. Thus, the deodorizing portion is more likely to come into contact with odors rising from the inside of the container body at a larger area, achieving further efficient deodorizing.
• the closing body includes a human sensor for opening the insertion opening
• the deodorizing portion is disposed on the same side as the human sensor, since the operator is usually in the vicinity of the human sensor in order to operate the human sensor, the deodorizing portion efficiently removes in advance odors that attempt to flow from the insertion opening toward the human sensor, so that the operator does not have to smell odors.
• the container body includes a drain capable of discharging waste liquid
• the waste liquid generated from the waste inside the container body can be discharged to the outside of the container body, thereby preventing the generation of odors inside the container body.

• the closing body includes a human sensor for opening the insertion opening
• the time during which the insertion opening remains open is extended when sensing by the human sensor occurs with the insertion opening open
• the extended time allows the operator to perform the insertion operation without rushing and to finish the insertion operation before the insertion opening is closed. Therefore, for example, a situation is avoided where the insertion opening is closed before the insertion of the waste is completed, opening of the insertion opening is required again, and a resulting increase in the number of opening and closing operations takes more time than necessary.
• the closing body includes a human sensor for opening the insertion opening
• the human sensor is capable of switching between an operation mode in which the insertion opening is opened upon sensing and a non-operation mode that maintains a state in which the insertion opening is closed, by setting the non-operation mode, it is possible to prevent unintentional opening and closing by the operator, injury to the operator, damage to the container by falling, or the like due to a reaction by the human sensor when the operator performs maintenance such as cleaning, disassembly and adjustment of the container, for example.

Therefore, odors and the deodorizer can be efficiently brought into contact with each other, so that the deodorizing efficiency can be enhanced.
• the deodorizing portion 5 is provided on the constituent surface 211a of the insertion portion 21, the deodorizing portion 5 is located at a position where it is difficult for the operator to visually recognize the deodorizing portion 5. Therefore, the design of the trash bin A is not impaired.
• the insertion opening 22 communicates with the waste passage 212 of the insertion portion 21 and the bag holding hole 30 of the inner lid portion 3, the waste inserted through the insertion opening 22 can be securely stored in the trash bag.
• the waste container according to the present invention is a waste container capable of preventing diffusion of odors to the outside from the insertion opening that is opened and closed when waste is discarded.
