Abstract

A trash can includes a lid assembly including a lid and a retainer rim and a transition arrangement coupled with the lid assembly that enables the lid to be selectively transited between a normal state and a transition state. In the normal state, the lid is operable between an open state and a close state through a foot pedal. When the lid is pivotally lifted up to have an included angle larger than 90 degrees from the retainer rim, the lid is in the transition state that would not fall back toward the retainer rim and the retainer rim is able to be lifted up to rest on said lid for replacing trash bag until the retainer rim is moved back to site on an upper edge of a shell of the trash can.
