WASTE BIN DEVICE FOR AIRCRAFT LAVATORY UNIT

摘要

Provided is a waste bin device for an aircraft lavatory unit, which is advantageous in having a reduced number of components and for reducing the weight of the lavatory unit. A chute 30A, a waste flap 32, and a waste container 34A are made of a fireproof material. When the waste container 34A is in a stored position located below the chute 30A, a fire spreading prevention space 38 is formed such that when refuse thrown into a waste bin device body 24 has caught on fire, the fire is prevented from spreading to the outside of the waste bin device body 24. A retention section 43 for retaining the waste container 34A in the stored position is provided. The retention section 43 is configured with the inclusion of a first retention part 44 for vertical retention of a state in which the upper part of the waste container 34A and the lower part of the chute 30A are abutted against each other at the stored position and a second retention part 46 for retaining the position of the waste container from a direction orthogonal to the vertical direction.
