Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of fruit peel bins, and more particularly to a solar-powered compressed fruit peel bin. Background Technology

[0002] With the accelerating pace of urbanization and the increasing public awareness of environmental protection, the requirements for public environmental sanitation facilities are also becoming higher. As an important component of urban infrastructure, the cleanliness, capacity, and maintenance efficiency of trash cans directly affect the city's appearance and municipal management costs.

[0003] Traditional public trash cans have the following main problems: First, their capacity is fixed, and in areas with high pedestrian traffic, they fill up quickly, requiring sanitation workers to empty them frequently. Otherwise, they overflow and scatter trash around, causing secondary pollution. This not only greatly increases the labor intensity and costs of sanitation work but also affects the city's aesthetics. Second, some trash cans have a sealed structure, which prevents odors from escaping, but the filling opening is usually small, making it difficult to put large or loose trash (such as packaging boxes, foam boxes, etc.) into them. Even if they are put in, they quickly fill the limited space, reducing their effective utilization rate.

[0004] To address the issue of insufficient capacity, some waste bins with compression functions have emerged on the market. These mechanically compress waste, increasing the bin's effective capacity and reducing the frequency of collection. However, these compression devices typically require external mains power, which presents challenges in wiring in public areas such as sidewalks, parks, and squares, resulting in high construction costs and safety hazards, significantly limiting their application and widespread adoption. Furthermore, most existing waste bins require manual button activation, lacking a high level of automation and the ability to automatically sense the state of waste inside and process it promptly. User experience and management efficiency still have room for improvement.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of waste bin that is self-sufficient, energy-saving and environmentally friendly, highly automated, and easy to install and deploy in various public places, in order to solve the defects of the existing technologies mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a solar-powered compressed fruit peel box to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A solar-powered compressive waste bin includes a bin body containing a waste bin. A feeding port is located on the front side of the bin body, allowing waste to be fed into the waste bin. The bin body is equipped with a solar power generation device, which includes a solar panel, a solar charge controller, and a battery. The solar panel is mounted on the top outer side of the bin body and connected to the solar charge controller, which in turn is connected to the battery. A compression device is also installed inside the bin body, comprising a drive motor, a scissor lift structure, and a compression plate. The upper ends of the drive motor and the scissor lift structure are mounted on the top inner side of the bin body. The upper end of the scissor lift structure is fixedly connected to the compression plate, which is positioned directly above the waste bin. The drive motor drives the scissor lift structure to move up and down, allowing the compression plate to move in and out of the waste bin, compressing the waste inside. An overflow sensor is also installed inside the bin body to detect the height of the waste in the waste bin. The overflow sensor is connected to the drive motor. The battery is connected to both the overflow sensor and the drive motor, providing power to both.

[0009] Further improvements to optimize the technical solution include:

[0010] The scissor lift structure includes a slide rail, a slider, and a scissor frame. The slide rail is fixed to the top inside the fruit peel bin, and the slider is slidably mounted on the slide rail. Of the two connection points at the upper end of the scissor frame, one is hinged to the top inside the fruit peel bin, and the other is hinged to the slider. The two connection points at the lower end of the scissor frame are both hinged to the upper surface of the compression plate. The drive motor is hinged to the top inside the fruit peel bin, and the motor shaft of the drive motor is hinged to one of the frame rods of the scissor frame. The drive motor causes the scissor frame to move up and down by pushing and pulling the frame rod of the scissor frame laterally.

[0011] The feeding port is equipped with an openable baffle, and a handle is provided on the outside of the baffle.

[0012] The fruit peel bin is equipped with an electrically controlled baffle opening and closing structure, which includes a baffle opening and closing motor, a transmission plate, and a transmission shaft. The baffle opening and closing motor is fixedly installed inside the fruit peel bin. There are two transmission plates, which are respectively hinged to the left and right sides of the feeding port of the fruit peel bin. The two ends of the transmission shaft are fixedly connected to the two transmission plates respectively. The lower end of the baffle is fixed to the transmission shaft. The motor shaft of the baffle opening and closing motor is connected to one of the transmission plates. When the baffle opening and closing motor is activated, it can drive the transmission plate to rotate the transmission shaft, thereby causing the baffle to rotate and opening and closing the feeding port.

[0013] The fruit peel bin has a magnetic switch installed on the side of the feeding port, and an electromagnetic lock is installed on the upper part of the baffle. When the magnetic switch is energized, it attracts the electromagnetic lock, thereby fixing the baffle and sealing the feeding port.

[0014] The bin contains a controller, which is connected to a magnetic switch. A battery is connected to both the magnetic switch and the controller, and supplies power to both. The controller controls whether the magnetic switch is energized.

[0015] The trash can is also equipped with a guide plate that extends from the feeding port to the top opening of the trash can. The trash fed into the feeding port slides down the guide plate into the trash can.

[0016] The inside of the fruit peel bin is equipped with anti-collision nylon blocks. The inner side of the baffle is provided with protrusions. When the baffle rotates to close the feeding port, the protrusions collide with the anti-collision nylon blocks, preventing the baffle from rotating further.

[0017] The feeding port is located on the upper part of the front side of the waste bin, and a cabinet door is located on the lower part of the front side of the waste bin. The cabinet door is equipped with a lock. When the cabinet door is opened, the trash can inside the waste bin is exposed.

[0018] Several indicator lights are installed on the outer surface of the waste bin. The indicator lights are connected to the battery and the controller, respectively. The battery powers the indicator lights, and the controller controls the indicator light switches.

[0019] The technical advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] 1. This utility model integrates a solar power generation device to convert solar energy into electrical energy and store it in a battery, providing power for the entire system. It achieves energy self-sufficiency, completely eliminating dependence on mains power and requiring no complex external wiring. This saves traditional energy, reduces installation costs and safety hazards, and truly achieves zero-carbon emission operation, aligning with the concept of green environmental protection.

[0021] 2. This utility model, through its innovative compression device (drive motor, scissor lifting frame structure, and compression plate), can powerfully compress loose garbage placed in the trash can, significantly reducing the garbage volume and effectively increasing the single-load capacity by several times. This greatly reduces the frequency of garbage collection for sanitation workers, lowers labor intensity and labor costs, and avoids environmental pollution problems caused by overflowing garbage.

[0022] 3. This utility model automatically detects the height of the garbage in the bin using an overflow sensor, and automatically triggers the compression program when it reaches a preset threshold, realizing full automation of the "sensing-compression" process. No manual intervention is required, improving management efficiency, ensuring that garbage is compressed in a timely manner, always reserving sufficient space for subsequent disposal, and enhancing the intelligence level and ease of use of the equipment.

[0023] 4. This utility model adopts a scissor lifting frame structure as the transmission mechanism, which can provide a large lifting stroke and stable thrust in a limited space, ensuring that the compression plate lifts vertically and smoothly, with large and uniform compression force, making the overall structure of the equipment more compact, reliable, and with a longer service life.

[0024] 5. The design of the electrically controlled baffle structure, electromagnetic lock, and guide plate in this utility model jointly optimizes the user experience and hygiene. The guide plate ensures that garbage is accurately placed into the bin and prevents it from scattering; the electrically controlled baffle can open and close automatically or under control, and together with the electromagnetic lock, it can firmly lock the bin during non-delivery periods, effectively preventing odor leakage, mosquito and fly breeding, and scavenging by scavengers, thus maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the surrounding environment.

[0025] 6. This utility model features indicator lights that visually display information such as whether the bin is full, the battery level, or whether the system is functioning properly, facilitating user disposal and management maintenance. The lower cabinet door allows sanitation workers to quickly remove and replace the bins, demonstrating a user-friendly design and convenient maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the application is described and illustrated below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments provided in this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] Obviously, the accompanying drawings described below are merely some examples or embodiments of this application. Those skilled in the art can apply this application to other similar scenarios based on these drawings without any inventive effort. Furthermore, it is understood that although the efforts made in this development process may be complex and lengthy, for those skilled in the art related to the content disclosed in this application, any changes to design, manufacturing, or production based on the technical content disclosed in this application are merely conventional technical means and should not be construed as insufficient disclosure of the content of this application.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a solar-powered compressed fruit peel bin, which mainly includes a fruit peel bin body 1, a trash can 2, a solar power generation device 3, a compression device 4, an overflow sensor 5, and other parts.

[0035] The waste bin body 1 forms the outer shell of the entire device, with a feeding port 11 on the upper front side for disposing of waste. Inside the waste bin body 1 is a movable waste bin 2 for directly holding waste. Waste can be dispensing into the waste bin 2 through the feeding port 11.

[0036] A solar power generation device 3 is installed on the waste bin body 1, and consists of a solar panel 31, a solar charge controller 32, and a battery 33. The solar panel 31 is fixedly installed on the outer top of the waste bin body 1 by a bracket to maximize the reception of sunlight. The output end of the solar panel 31 is connected to the input end of the solar charge controller 32 via wires, and the output end of the solar charge controller 32 is connected to the battery 33, forming a complete charging circuit. The solar charge controller 32 is used to manage the charging process, prevent the battery 33 from being overcharged or over-discharged, and extend its lifespan.

[0037] The compression device 4 is one of the core components of this utility model, and it is installed inside the garbage bin body 1. The compression device 4 includes a drive motor 41, a scissor lifting frame structure 42, and a compression plate 43. The upper ends of the drive motor 41 and the scissor lifting frame structure 42 are fixedly installed on the inner top of the garbage bin body 1 by bolts or welding. The compression plate 43 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the scissor lifting frame structure 42 and is located directly above the garbage bin 2. After being powered on, the drive motor 41 can drive the scissor lifting frame structure 42 to move up and down, thereby driving the compression plate 43 to move downward into the garbage bin 2 or upward to retract, compressing the garbage inside the garbage bin 2.

[0038] Specifically, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the scissor lifting frame structure 42 includes a slide rail 42a, a slider 42b, and a scissor frame 42c. The slide rail 42a is fixedly installed on the inner top of the fruit peel bin body 1 by bolts. The slider 42b is slidably mounted on the slide rail 42a. Of the two connection points at the upper end of the scissor frame 42c, one is hinged to the inner top of the fruit peel bin body 1 by a pin, and the other is hinged to the slider 42b by a pin. The two connection points at the lower end of the scissor frame 42c are both hinged to the upper surface of the compression plate 43 by pins. The drive motor 41 is hinged to the inner top of the fruit peel bin body 1, and its motor shaft is hinged to one of the frame rods of the scissor frame 42c. When the drive motor 41 is activated, its motor shaft pushes and pulls the frame rod hinged to it, forcing the shape of the scissor frame 42c to change, thereby driving the slider 42b to slide on the slide rail 42a, ultimately realizing the vertical extension and retraction movement of the entire scissor frame 42c, driving the compression plate 43 to rise and fall.

[0039] To monitor the height of the trash in bin 2, an overflow sensor 5 is installed inside the bin body 1. This overflow sensor 5 can be an infrared sensor or an ultrasonic sensor, and its installation position faces the interior space of bin 2. The overflow sensor 5 is signal-connected to the drive motor 41. When the overflow sensor 5 detects that the height of the trash in bin 2 has reached its preset trigger value, it sends a start signal to the drive motor 41. The battery 33 is electrically connected to both the overflow sensor 5 and the drive motor 41, providing the necessary power for their operation.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, an openable baffle 12 is installed on the feeding port 11. A handle is provided on the outer side of the baffle 12 for easy manual opening when necessary. As a preferred automation solution, an electrically controlled baffle opening and closing structure 6 can also be installed inside the fruit peel bin body 1. This electrically controlled baffle opening and closing structure 6 includes a baffle opening and closing motor 61, transmission plates 62, and a transmission shaft 63. The baffle opening and closing motor 61 is fixedly installed inside the fruit peel bin body 1 via a mounting base. Two transmission plates 62 are respectively hinged to the fruit peel bin body 1 via pins and located on the left and right sides of the feeding port 11. Both ends of the transmission shaft 63 are fixedly connected to the two transmission plates 62 respectively. The lower end of the baffle 12 is fixed to the transmission shaft 63. The motor shaft of the baffle opening and closing motor 61 is connected to one of the transmission plates 62. When the baffle opening and closing motor 61 is activated, it drives the transmission plate 62 to swing, thereby driving the transmission shaft 63 to rotate, and finally causing the baffle 12 fixed on it to rotate, realizing the automatic opening and closing of the feeding port 11.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, in order to lock the baffle 12 in the closed state, an electromagnetic lock 14 is installed on the fruit peel bin body 1 at the position corresponding to the upper end of the baffle 12, and an armature is installed at the corresponding position on the upper end of the baffle 12. When the electromagnetic lock 14 is energized, it generates a strong magnetic force, attracting the armature on the baffle 12, thereby firmly locking the baffle 12 in the position of closing the feeding port 11.

[0042] To achieve intelligent control, a controller 7 can be installed inside the waste bin body 1. The controller 7 can be a microcontroller (MCU) or a PLC, and its output is connected to the electromagnetic lock 14. The battery 33 supplies power to the electromagnetic lock 14 and the controller 7. The controller 7 can control the current flowing to the electromagnetic lock 14, thereby controlling its locking and unlocking.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, in order to guide the garbage accurately into the garbage bin 2 and prevent the garbage from scattering, an inclined guide plate 15 is also installed inside the garbage bin body 1. The upper end of the guide plate 15 extends to the lower edge of the feeding port 11, and the lower end extends to the upper opening of the garbage bin 2. The garbage fed into the feeding port 11 will slide down the surface of the guide plate 15 into the garbage bin 2.

[0044] To protect the box structure and precisely limit the closing position of the baffle 12, an anti-collision nylon block 16 is installed inside the fruit peel bin 1, corresponding to the inner position of the baffle 12 when closed. A protrusion 17 is provided on the inner surface of the baffle 12. When the baffle 12 rotates to close the feeding port 11, the protrusion 17 will precisely abut against the anti-collision nylon block 16, using the cushioning effect of the nylon material to prevent the baffle 12 from rotating further and to determine its final position.

[0045] like Figure 1As shown, the feeding port 11 is located on the upper part of the front side of the waste bin body 1. A cabinet door 18 is also located at its lower part, equipped with a mechanical or electronic lock. Opening the cabinet door 18 exposes and allows access to the trash can 2 inside the waste bin body 1, facilitating waste collection by sanitation workers.

[0046] In addition, several indicator lights 19 can be installed on the outer surface of the waste bin 1. These indicator lights 19 are electrically connected to the battery 33 and the controller 7, respectively. The battery 33 supplies power to the indicator lights 19, and the controller 7 controls the on / off state and flashing mode of the indicator lights 19 according to the program (such as after receiving the overflow sensor signal) or directly to display the equipment status, such as "power sufficient", "garbage full, waiting to be collected" or "system failure".

[0047] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The solar panel 31 converts light energy into electrical energy, which is then regulated by the solar charge controller 32 and stored in the battery 33. Users deposit garbage through the feeding port 11, and the garbage slides into the garbage bin 2 via the guide plate 15. When the overflow sensor 5 detects that the garbage has reached the set height, it transmits a signal to the drive motor 41 (or first to the controller 7, which then controls the drive motor 41). The drive motor 41 starts, pushing the scissor lifting frame structure 42 to extend, causing the compression plate 43 to descend and compress the garbage. After compression, the drive motor 41 reverses, causing the compression plate 43 to rise and reset. The entire working cycle is driven by green solar energy, achieving energy-saving, environmentally friendly, and automated garbage collection and processing.

[0048] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should be considered within its protection scope.
