Abstract
A flip trash can, including: a trash can body for containing trash, a lid, a locking member, a clamping piece on the locking member, a clamping portion on the lid and a flip-limiting structure. The lid and the locking member are hingedly connected to an opening of the trash can body, and arranged coaxially through the hinged shaft. The clamping piece is matched with the clamping portion. The clamping piece is configured to engage with or disengage from the clamping portion to respectively realize engagement and disengagement between the lid and the locking member. The flip-limiting structure is connected to the locking member to drive the locking member to turn over relative to the trash can body, thereby driving the lid to turn over relative to the trash can body.
Claims13
A flip trash can, comprising:
- a trash can body;
- a lid;
- a locking member;
- at least one clamping piece;
- at least one clamping portion;
- and
- a flip-limiting structure;
- wherein the trash can body is configured to receive and accommodate trash;
- an inner diameter of the trash can body increases from bottom to top;
- the lid is hingedly connected to an opening of the trash can body;
- the locking member is hingedly connected to the opening of the trash can body;
- the lid is coaxially arranged with the locking member through a hinged shaft;
- each of the at least one clamping piece is provided on the locking member;
- each of the at least one clamping portion is provided on the lid, and is matched with each of the at least one clamping piece;
- each of the at least one clamping piece is configured to be engaged with each of the at least one clamping portion to realize snap-fit connection between the lid and the locking member, and is also configured to be disengaged from each of the at least one clamping portion to realize disengagement of the lid from the locking member;
- when each of the at least one clamping piece is disengaged from each of the at least one clamping portion, the lid is disengaged from the locking member, and the lid is capable of turning over relative to the trash can body, and being hung on a side of the trash can body;
- and when the lid is hung on the side of the trash can body, an avoidance space is arranged between the lid and the trash can body for stacking of another trash can;
- the flip-limiting structure is connected to the locking member for driving the locking member to turn over relative to the trash can body, so as to drive the lid to turn over relative to the trash can body when the lid is in snap-fit connection with the locking member;
- and the flip-limiting structure is also configured to limit a rotation angle of the locking member relative to the trash can body, so as to limit a rotation angle of the lid relative to the trash can body when the lid is in snap-fit connection with the locking member;
- and a maximum rotation angle of the lid relative to the trash can body when the lid is disengaged from the locking member is larger than a maximum rotation angle of the lid relative to the trash can body under limit of the flip-limiting structure.
