Abstract

Waste container with automatic lid, essentially characterized by comprising: an outer envelope, a lid, an inner container and a pedal for actuating the lid, because said lid has an extension on one side suitable for being fixed to a side of the mouth of the outer envelope and serve as a hinge taking advantage of the peculiar flexibility of which the material of which the extension is formed is formed, because the bottom of the aforementioned outer envelope simultaneously acts as a pedal and cam lever, preventing at the same time the fall of garbage and any dirt that can obstruct the mechanisms of action, which are integrated by a lifting lever fixed at one end to the pedal and on the other to a bracket which in turn is attached to the lid and because the aforementioned pedal protrudes from the lower part of one of the sides, occupying its entire length, allowing it to be activated from any position in which the user is located, and also because the aforesaid cover can remain in the open position even when the foot pressure on the pedal ceases and closes at will subsequently re-pressing the bottom of the pedal; and to achieve these effects depending on the elbow area that has the lift rod at its upper end, which allows the lid once open, take a defasado angle with respect to the vertical and in condition, the perpendicular that passes through the center of severity of the cover, moves away from the axis of rotation of that in a convenient length such that prevents automatic closing; which is achieved at will by pressing the pedal bottom quickly and releasing it, with which cover by rebound will fall, in its initial closing position.
