Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of waste containers, and specifically relates to a pedal bin. BACKGROUND A waste container is a commonly used article for daily use. A pedal bin is a container with a lid operated by a foot pedal, and is very convenient to use, cf. US 2021 / 354 912 A1, CN 110 482 078 A and CN 110 053 906 A. However, the lid must be opened in order for the user to throw waste into the bin, and unpleasant smell will disperse from the bin, making the user feel uncomfortable. SUMMARY An objective of the present disclosure is to provide a pedal bin to solve the above problems of the prior art. The following technical solutions are adopted. A pedal bin is provided, which includes a base, a bin body, a garbage bag compartment, a lid, a pedal, a first connecting rod, a toggle block, a first restoring member, a first limiting portion, a linkage mechanism, and a baffle plate, where the bin body is detachably connected to a top of the base, the garbage bag compartment is detachably connected to an opening at a top of the bin body, and the lid is hingedly connected to a top of the garbage bag compartment;the pedal is rotatably arranged at a bottom of the base, a first end of the first connecting rod is hingedly connected to the pedal, and a second end of the first connecting rod is connected to the lid;the toggle block is rotatably arranged on a side surface of the first connecting rod, and the linkage mechanism is arranged in an inner cavity of the garbage bag compartment and forms a clutch structure with the toggle block to control opening and closing of the baffle plate;the first limiting portion is arranged on the side surface of the first connecting rod and is pressed against a top of the toggle block; andthe first restoring member is connected to the toggle block and the first connecting rod, the pedal is configured to drive the first connecting rod to move upward to cause the toggle block to contact the linkage mechanism and rotate, and after the toggle block is moved upward and separated from the linkage mechanism, the toggle block is reset by the first restoring member.
