DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART

In the current world, people live in an environment filled with man-made plastic wastes, and these plastic wastes are difficult to decompose in the natural environment. In order to eliminate such environmental pollution, human beings need to use biodegradable materials to replace the most widely used plastic bags. Paper bags are ideal alternatives, but it is also inconvenient to use paper bags, for example, the bag mouth is easily torn, it is difficult to place paper bags, it is difficult to fully open paper bags to use their capacity, and angular materials easily puncture paper bags, thus the use of paper bags is limited.


U.S. design Pat. D513352S discloses a hard tank. The hard tank is inserted into a paper bag to support the paper bag, which can partially solve the problems. The tank then has the following problems: 1. when the hard tank is unused, a certain space will be occupied as a guide plate is irreversible, thus it is inconvenient to store; 2. notch of the storage plate is larger than ⅔, thus the storage plate is easily broken, and inconvenient to carry or store; 3. the whole plate is unstable after formation, and it is inconvenient to insert into the paper bag, and 4. when the paper bag is placed horizontally to serve as a dustpan, the guide plate can not rotate for folded paper, thus things can not be easily swept into the low box by a broom.

Preferably, the paper bag support plate structure comprises a paper bag support plate, a third fold line parallel to a fourth fold line is formed at the middle part of the paper bag support plate, the distance between the third fold line and the fourth fold line is narrower than that between the first fold line and the second fold line, when in storage, a left part and a right part of the paper bag support plate fold inwards along the third fold line and the fourth fold line respectively to fold the paper bag support plate into a flat plate, when in use, the left part and the right part of the paper bag support plate fold outwards along the third fold line and the fourth fold line respectively to fold the paper bag support plate into a slot shape.


Preferably, a first pin hole is arranged at the left end and the right end of the guide plate respectively, and a second pin hole is arranged at the left part and the right part of the paper bag support plate, a pin passes through the first pin hole and the second pin hole and hinges the guide plate structure with the paper bag support plate structure, and then the pin is fixed by a pin cover.


Preferably, one edge of the guide plate between the first fold line and the second fold line extends outward to form an extension portion, the extension portion folds along a fifth fold line, the guide plate structure in turning keeps off the paper bag support plate structure via the folded extension portion, so that the guide plate structure is turned in place smoothly, slot walls at both sides of the paper bag support plate structure are respectively snapped into a corner formed by the edge at the extension portion side and the left edge or the right edge of the guide plate at respective side, and garbage sliding automatically through the guide plate structure is buffered by outward folding of the extension portion.


Preferably, at least two finger insertion holes are respectively arranged at the left part and the right part of the guide plate.


Preferably, the hard material is cardboard or corrugated paper.


The environment-friendly paper bag recycling storage plate comprises a guide plate structure and a paper bag support plate structure, the guide plate structure and the paper bag support plate structure are linked by a pin and a pin cover, and rotate to form a rectangle, then the rectangle is inserted into a paper bag to form a storage box or garbage bin in vertical placement, or a dustpan in horizontal placement. When the paper bag is full, fingers can penetrate four holes on the paper bag support plate to pull the storage plate out of the paper bag. The storage plate is reusable, compact in whole structure, convenient to use, lighter than a common garbage bin, convenient to carry, foldable when not in use, small in occupied space, low in manufacturing cost, and easy to use by common people.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

The invention is described in detail in combination with the following drawings and preferred embodiments for clear understanding.


As shown in FIG. 1, an environment-friendly paper bag recycling storage plate provided by the invention comprises a guide plate structure 1 and a paper bag support plate structure 2 which are folded by a hard foldable material. The hard material can be of cardboard or corrugated paper. The guide plate structure 1 and the paper bag support plate structure 2 comprise a guide plate and a paper bag support plate respectively, a first fold line 9 parallel to a second fold line 10 is formed at the middle part of the guide plate, and a slightly narrow third fold line 11 parallel to a slightly narrow fourth fold line 12 is formed at a corresponding position of the paper bag support plate. One edge of the guide plate between the first fold line 9 and the second fold line 10 extends outward to form an extension portion, and the extension portion can fold along a fifth fold line 8. A first pin hole 5 is arranged at the left end and the right end of the guide plate respectively, and a second pin hole 6 is arranged at corresponding position of the left part and the right part of the paper bag support plate. Two finger insertion holes 7 are respectively arranged at the left part and the right part below the second pin hole 6 of the paper bag support plate. According to FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, when in use, the left part and the right part of the guide plate fold outwards along the first fold line 9 and the second fold line 10 respectively to fold the guide plate into a slot shape, and the left part and the right part of the paper bag support plate fold outwards along the third fold line 11 and the fourth fold line 12 respectively to fold the paper bag support plate into a slot shape. A pin 3 passes through the first pin hole 5 and the second pin hole 6 and hinges the guide plate structure 1 with the paper bag support plate structure 2, and then the pin 3 is fixed by a pin cover 4. The guide plate structure 1 is turned towards the direction away from the paper bag support plate structure 2, the guide plate structure 1 in turning keeps off the paper bag support plate structure 2 via the folded extension portion, so that the guide plate structure 1 is turned in place smoothly, after turning in place, the paper bag support plate structure 2 is in a stable state. Slot walls at both sides of the paper bag support plate structure 2 are respectively snapped into a corner formed by the edge at the extension portion side and the left edge or the right edge of the guide plate at respective side, and garbage sliding automatically through the guide plate structure 1 is buffered by outward folding of the extension portion.


An environment-friendly paper bag recycling storage plate provided by the invention can be vertically inserted in a paper bag 13 to form a vertical storage box as shown in FIG. 5, or horizontally inserted into the paper bag 13 to form a horizontal storage box as shown in FIG. 6, thus a broom can be used for easily sweeping scraps into the storage box.


According to FIG. 7A to FIG. 7C, when in storage, the guide plate structure 1 can be turned inward to closely abut the guide plate structure 1 with the paper bag support plate structure 2, then the paper bag support plate and the guide plate are folded inward along corresponding fold lines into flat plates, thus the environment-friendly paper bag recycling storage plate can be easily carried, stored and transported.
