Abstract
A trash bin of the shredder consists of an inner bin and an outer bin. When the user inserts the inner bin into the outer bin, a bolt assembly combines the inner bin and the outer bin. An energy storing element of a pushing mechanism stores energy to push the inner bin out. The user can trigger the bolt assembly by depressing or stepping to release the energy stored in the energy storing element. The inner bin automatically jumps out for the user to clean trash paper therein.
Claims6
An improved structure of a shredder trash bin, comprising:
- an outer bin, which has a first opening on its top for paper pieces to fall in and a second opening on its side for accommodating an inner bin;
- an inner bin, which is accommodated inside the second opening of the outer bin for accommodating trash paper pieces;
- a bolt assembly, which is disposed in the inner bin for the combination between the inner bin and the outer bin, wherein the connection between the inner bin and the outer bin is released by exerting a force thereon;
- and
- a pushing mechanism, which is disposed inner the outer bin for providing sufficient energy to eject the inner bin out of the outer bin once the bolt assembly is triggered to release the connection between the inner bin and the outer bin.
