A trash can with an automatic packaging function, comprising a lid;
- wherein a bottom of the lid is provided with a closure mechanism;
- a middle of the closure mechanism is provided with a trash inlet;
- and an opening of a garbage bag is arranged within the trash inlet;
- the opening of the garbage bag is sleeved at the trash inlet, and a main body of the garbage bag is configured to pass through the middle of the closure mechanism;
- the closure mechanism is provided with a cavity around the trash inlet, and the cavity is in an annular shape;
- an interior of the cavity is open, and is communicated with the trash inlet;
- a support part is provided in the cavity;
- and the support part is spirally provided with a track extending from inside to outside;
- the closure mechanism comprises a heat-sealing unit, a limit block, a flexible belt and a drive wheel;
- the heat-sealing unit, the limit block, the flexible belt and the drive wheel are provided in the cavity;
- a first end of the heat-sealing unit is connected with a first end of the flexible belt, and a second end of the heat-sealing unit is provided with the drive wheel;
- a second end of the flexible belt is configured to extend along the track and pass through the limit block to be drivably connected with the drive wheel;
- and the drive wheel is configured to rotate to drive the flexible belt to be elastically gathered or stretched;
- in response to a case that the flexible belt is gathered from an inner side of the track to the heat-sealing unit, the heat-sealing unit, the limit block and the flexible belt are configured to enclose to form a close state, the flexible belt is configured to close the opening of the garbage bag to the heat-sealing unit, and the heat-sealing unit is configured to press and thermally seal the opening of the garbage bag;
- and
- the drive wheel is configured to reversely rotate to allow the heat-sealing unit to be separated from the limit block and the flexible belt to stretch along the track, so as to release the garbage bag.
