Description

[Detailed description of the device]

The present invention relates to a dust box, particularly a dust box made of stainless steel.

Conventionally known dust boxes are made of resin (plastic) and are easily scratched, so that when they are used, they do not look good and are difficult to clean. This relatively large molding is large, expensive, and economical to mass-produce, but requires a die-casting machine that is not suitable for small-volume production of products of different sizes and designs. Dust boxes made of metal, especially stainless steel, cannot be manufactured individually. Apart from high mold costs and manufacturing costs, unavoidable chips result in significantly higher material costs.

The problem of this invention is that at least the body, which determines the overall impression and usability, is made of stainless steel, and the manufacturing cost and material cost are low, especially, there are few chips, and the shape of whatever shape is desired. To obtain a dust box that can be produced economically in size, size and even in small quantities.

This problem is solved especially by a stainless dust box having the features of claim 1.

The main feature of the dust box of the present invention is that the body part is made of the same container made of two halves made of stainless steel, the amount of chips produced during manufacturing is small, and the dust box can be manufactured at low cost. The two halves of the same shape are held at their bottoms by at least one, preferably two metal reinforcing straps. It is functional if this strap is made of metal. The strap in this case is welded to the container by spot welding.

[0006] In some cases, the reinforcing strap may be formed of a sufficiently strong and shock-resistant resin material that is adhered to both bodies.

Reinforcing straps form the bottom of the dust box and are used to secure a removable pan. This tray may be made of resin, which is particularly shock-resistant and has elasticity, or may be made of metal.

The two-half container is constrained by a guardrail wrapping around the upper part, and the container is fitted with one or preferably two handles, which can be swiveled in parallel. There is. When the handle is laid horizontally horizontally, it can be used to hold the edge of the garbage bag.

The dust box according to the present invention may have a rectangular, particularly square or circular cross section, and its height can be freely selected. Thus, by arranging two dust boxes side by side in the drawer in a floor cabinet having a width of only 30 cm, for example, the space of the floor cabinet under the counter of the kitchen can be effectively used.

FIG. 1 is a front view of a dust box according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a side view of the dust box shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a plan view of the dust box shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. 5 is a sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. 5, and FIG. 5 is an enlarged view of a Z portion of FIG.

The body of the dust box 1 of the present embodiment comprises two containers 13a and 13b made of stainless steel, and the bottom of the body has two reinforcing straps 17 made of the same material. It is glued and the top is pressed down by a guardrail 19 which wraps around the edge. The reinforcing strap 17 and the guard rail 19 can be respectively welded to the body by spot welding. As shown in the figure, the fuselage consists of two isomorphic containers, leaving a gap between them. It is possible to match the cross-sections of two containers, but this method simplifies manufacturing as it narrows the range of tolerances that must be adhered to.

A tray 15 is attached to the bottom of the dust box 1. It is preferably made of a shock-resistant and elastic resin. A cam 16 is attached to the inside of the upper edge portion, and the upper edge of the reinforcing strap 17 is fitted to the cam 16. The saucer 15 may be made of stainless steel although the cost is increased. The tray 15 can be removed for cleaning.

The guard rail 19 attached above is an angle member made of resin or metal. The horizontal angle side 19a is used as a support frame when the dust box is inserted into the support structure of the cabinet. The vertically raised angle side 19b serves to reinforce the body of the dust box. In this way, it is possible to give sufficient strength to the fixture for the swivel handle of the dust box.

In the structural example shown in the figure, two handles 14 are attached, and these handles 14 are attached to the guardrail 19 one on each side of the vertical gap of the body. The bearing fitting 18 allows it to rotate. When the handle is in a vertical position (Figs. 1 and 2), it is a handle for carrying, and when it is folded down horizontally and placed on the horizontal angle side 19a of the guardrail 19, the dust bag in the dust box The edges can be sandwiched and fixed.

As shown in the figure, the dust box is slightly tapered downward. This is because the reinforcing guard rail 19 for holding the body of the dust box is fitted from below and raised so that when the body is brought close to the upper edge, the body is tightened so as to hold it down. . In this case, the guardrail 19 may be made of resin. If the guardrail 19 is made of metal, it is effective to weld the edge of the upper part of the body of the dust box together with the guardrail 19 by spot welding. The handle 14 is also made of metal because of its durability and appearance.

In the structure shown in the figure, the shape of the dust box is square, but the shape of the container of the fuselage can be appropriately changed to be circular.

The size of the dust box is chosen to optimally utilize the space in the floor cabinet under the kitchen counter. For example, in a floor cabinet with a width of 30 cm, two dust boxes can be placed vertically in a drawer, and in a floor cabinet with a width of 60 cm, two dust boxes can be placed side by side. You can

Since the dust box is much lower than the height of the floor cabinet box, it is possible to mount a stand on or under the dust box or a drawer for storing eg waste paper.
