Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a trash can, and more particularly, to a trash can that separately sorts a plurality of types of trash into each trash can and can effectively use the internal volume of the trash can. Regarding

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Various types of waste generated from households are sorted or discarded according to the method of disposal. Therefore, for example, combustible materials, incombustible materials, dangerous materials, and recyclable wastes that are collected and reused must be sorted into each type and stored in a bag or the like.

In order to sort and store the garbage according to its type, if each garbage is sorted and discarded at the time of dumping it, it is efficient because it is not necessary to sort it later. For that purpose, for example, a plurality of trash cans such as poly buckets are prepared for each type of trash, or a trash can whose interior is divided into a plurality of rooms is used.

[0004]

However, in such a conventional trash can, there is a problem that the volume occupied by the trash can not be effectively utilized when the number of kinds of trash to be separated increases. For example, the amount of waste generated from homes and the like varies, and depending on the type, there is a large amount of waste and a small amount of waste, and the amount of each type of waste changes daily. Therefore, for example, even when using a plurality of poly buckets in the kitchen to sort and store multiple kinds of garbage, the poly bucket A will be full soon but the poly bucket B will not be full soon, or vice versa. The Poly Bucket A does not fill up easily, but the Poly Bucket B may fill up soon. Therefore, even if the size of the poly bucket is determined by predicting the amount of each type of dust in advance, each poly bucket is not always effectively used, and as a result, the space for closing the poly bucket is wasted. It will be.

Also, when using a trash can whose interior is divided into a plurality of rooms, similarly, one room fills up quickly but the other rooms do not fill up easily. Uniformity always occurs. This kind of trash can saves space for storing it compared to using multiple trash cans, but because each room is not always used efficiently, the internal volume of the trash can is reduced. In many cases, it could not be used effectively.

[0006] In addition, in order to take out the garbage in the room that is the first full of the garbage cans, the entire garbage can must be turned over to take out the garbage in all the rooms. there were. The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and provides a trash box that sorts and stores a plurality of types of trash, and that can sort trash by each type and effectively use the internal capacity of the trash box. It is to be.

[0007]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, in the trash box of the present invention, a support base for attaching and holding the trash bag with the mouth of the trash bag opened upward, and a front portion. And a box for accommodating the support table, the box having a door and at least one opening at the top. The support base includes a lower frame, at least one pillar extending upward from the lower frame, and at least one upper frame that is supported by the pillar and that opens and attaches the open end of the dust bag. It is convenient to configure.

Further, the support base may be provided with a holding plate which fits into the upper frame and presses the open end of the dust bag, and a handle for taking out the support base from the box. Also,
The position and the number of openings of the box correspond to the position and the number of the upper frame when the support base is stored in the box,
The box may be provided with a lid for opening and closing the opening. Further, it is preferable that a caster is provided on the bottom surface of the box.

The shape of the upper frame may be circular, elliptical or rectangular.

[0010]

As described above, according to the trash box of the present invention, the trash bag is provided with a holding table for mounting and holding the trash bag with the mouth of the trash bag opened upward, a door at the front part, and at least one part at the top. Since it is composed of a box that accommodates the support table having two openings, it is possible to hold a plurality of garbage bags with their mouths open without providing a partition inside the garbage box. Also, by making the number and position of the dust bags inside the box correspond to the number and position of the openings at the top of the box and making them the same,
Different kinds of garbage can be sorted and stored in each garbage bag.

Therefore, since there is no partition between the adjacent garbage bags inside the box, when the amount of garbage put in the garbage bag next to it is small, the garbage bag up to the adjacent garbage bag It can be inflated to accommodate garbage. Therefore,
The amount of garbage put in each garbage bag inside the box determines the amount of garbage that can be stored in each garbage bag,
As a result, it is possible to always effectively use the internal volume of the trash can and sort the trash without predicting the amount of each type of trash to be put into the trash can in advance. At this time, the maximum amount of garbage that can be stored in one garbage bag is, if the garbage bag is large enough, from the internal volume of the entire garbage can,
It is the volume excluding the total amount of garbage stored in other garbage bags inside the trash can.

Further, the support base is composed of a lower frame, a column extending upward from the lower frame, and at least one upper frame which is supported by the column and holds the open end of the dust bag. This makes it possible to easily store one or more garbage bags in the trash can with the mouth open. Furthermore, after the dust bag is attached to the upper frame of the support base, the dust bag can be reliably mounted by fitting and holding the pressing plate on the upper frame. Further, by providing a handle on the support base, it becomes easy to store or remove the support base, to which the dust bag is attached, from inside the trash can.

Furthermore, by providing casters on the bottom of the trash can, the trash can can be easily moved.

The connecting portion 17 is formed in a U shape so that the upper frames 16a and 16b are separated from each other. The dust bag mounting base 12 is preferably made of a material such as stainless steel which is strong against corrosion and has high strength.

The holding plate 13 has a U-shaped cross section with its peripheral portion bent downward, and its upper surface has two windows 18a and 18b and a holding portion 19 other than the windows 18a and 18b. Consists of. The shape and position of the pressing portion 19 are
It corresponds to the shapes and positions of the upper frames 16a and 16b of the dust bag mounting base 12, and the pressing plate 13 is attached to the upper frames 16a and 16b.
By covering it with b, the dust bags 11a and 11b hung on the upper frames 16a and 16b can be pressed. Therefore, the holding plate 13 is formed to be somewhat heavy, or the bent peripheral portion of the holding plate 13 and the upper frames 16a, 16b so that the holding plate 13 can securely press and fix the dust bags 11a, 11b. It is preferable to adjust the interval between and.

This garbage bag mount 12 has garbage bags 11a, 1
When attaching 1b, first pass the open end of one garbage bag 11a through the upper frame 16a from below, and fold the protruding part outward so that the garbage bag 11a does not fall downward. Adjust to an appropriate length. Next, the upper frame 16b
Similarly, the opening end of the dust bag 11b is passed from below and the length of the folded back portion is adjusted. At this time, since the connecting portion 17 is U-shaped, the garbage bags 11a, 1
The open end of 1b can be folded back over the entire periphery of the upper frames 16a and 16b, and can be prevented from falling off after the dust bags 11a and 11b are mounted.

Next, by covering the holding plate 13 from above, the dust bags 11a and 11b can be securely attached to the upper frames 16a and 16b, and as shown in FIG.

Further, the column 15 is formed thicker than the upper frames 16a and 16b, and can be held by hand when the support base 10 is stored in the trash can or taken out from the trash can.

Returning to FIG. 1, the operation of the trash can will be described. In order to simplify the explanation, the support 1 is attached to the box 1.
A case where only one 0 is stored and used will be described.
The dust is put in through the opening 7a or 7b depending on its type. For example, in this embodiment, since the opening 7b is larger than the opening 7a, a heavy and small incombustible material such as a bottle or a can is put in the opening 7a, and a light and large combustible material such as paper waste is put in the opening 7b. You may include it. The positions of the openings 7a and 7b correspond to the positions of the windows 18a and 18b of the holding plate 13 of the support base 10.

The garbage bags 11a and 11b are inflated as the garbage accumulates in the garbage bags 11a and 11b. For example, the amount of garbage contained in the garbage bag 11a is larger than the amount of garbage contained in the garbage bag 11b. At this time, the garbage bag 11a expands first. Then, the garbage bags 11a and 11b
Since there is no partition between them, the garbage bag 11a is
Swell toward b. At this time, for example, if no dust is contained in the dust bag 11b, the dust bag 11a can be expanded as much as the size of the dust bag 11a or the volume of the inside of the box 1 allows to store the dust.

Similarly, when the amount of garbage put in the garbage bag 11b is larger than the amount of garbage put in the garbage bag 11a, the garbage bag 11b inflates toward the garbage bag 11a to accommodate the garbage. be able to. Therefore, by accommodating another support table with two garbage bags attached on the left side of the inside of the waste box 1 of FIG. 1, the four openings 7a, 7b and the openings 8a, 8b are different from each other. It is possible to sort four types of garbage separately, and a garbage bag containing a large amount of garbage will inflate toward the garbage bag with a small amount of garbage, so the space in the garbage bag with a small amount of garbage will be wasted. And the internal volume of the trash can be effectively used. When the respective garbage bags are sufficiently large, the respective garbage can be filled until the total amount of the respective garbage is equal to the volume inside the box 1.

When the trash box is full of trash, the support 15 of the support base 10 is held in hand and the holding plate 13 is removed to remove the most inflated trash bag, for example, the trash bag 11a. The removed garbage bag 11a can be directly sent to disposal or collection. Then, if a new garbage bag is attached to the upper frame 16a from which the garbage bag 11a has been removed and stored in the box 1, the other garbage bags 11b, 1b
The trash can can be continuously used without replacing 1c and 11d.

Therefore, by using this trash can, it is possible to separate trash of different types and effectively utilize the volume of the trash can. Although the upper frame of the support base is formed in a rectangular shape in this embodiment, it may be formed in a circular shape, an elliptical shape, or the like.
