The present invention relates to a waste bin structure, and more particularly to a waste bin structure that can be opened by a triggering action, and by a stepping action of a user's foot so that the waste bin structure has dual functions and effects.
A conventional waste bin is used for storing wastes or rubbish therein. However, the conventional waste bin is not provided with a cover or lid, so that the wastes are directly in contact with the air of the ambient environment. Therefore, when the wastes top planon so that the linking lever 22 pushes the lid cover 30 to pivot upward as shown in FIG. 7.
The improvement of the present invention will be described as follows.
The lid cover 30 includes an inner cover 34 and an outer cover 35. The inner cover 34 is placed in the inner rim of the outer cover 35. The locking portion 32 of the lid cover 30 is mounted between the inner cover 34 and the outer cover 35. The inner cover 34 has a front end provided with a touch portion 340 that may be pressed so as to pivot the inner cover 34 to move upward independently. The top face of the connecting portion 21 of the outer barrel 20 has a front end defining a hanging recess 213. The inner barrel 10 has a rear side having a top edge provided with a hanging hook portion 11 secured in the hanging recess 213 of the connecting portion 21 of the outer barrel 20 so that the inner barrel 10 can be secured on the front end of the connecting portion 21 of the outer barrel 20. The outer barrel 20 has a back side provided with a hood 240. A plurality of screws 242 each in turn extend through the hood 240, the outer barrel 20, and the connecting portion 21, such that the connecting portion 21 is secured inside of the top portion of the outer barrel 20, and the hood 240 is secured outside of the top portion of the outer barrel 20 to form a handle portion 24 of the outer barrel 20, such that the outer barrel 20 may be portable. In addition, the lid cover 30 of the waste bin structure can be opened by a triggering action, and by a stepping action of a foot so that the waste bin structure of the present invention has dual functions and effects.
Referring to
Accordingly, the waste bin structure in accordance with the present invention has simple parts that are pivoted with each other, so that the waste bin structure can be assembled easily, and has a cheaper cost of fabrication. In addition, the waste bin structure has an airtight effect so as to prevent wastes contained in the waste bin structure from directly contacting air of the ambient environment, thereby preventing leakage and spread of odor from the waste bin structure.
Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claim will cover such modifications and variations that fall within the true scope of the invention.
