Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of environmental protection and relates to an intelligent garbage classification and circulation system. Background Art
[0002] With the development of society, the types and quantities of goods produced by people are increasing, and garbage will be generated after the use of goods. Due to the wide variety of goods, the types of garbage generated after their use are also very various, and the treatment methods of different types of garbage are completely different. For example, the treatment methods of discarded batteries and kitchen waste are completely different. Therefore, it is particularly important to classify garbage in the process of garbage treatment.
[0003] The existing method of processing and classifying garbage is to set an ordinary garbage can into multiple classified garbage cans at the position of a normal garbage can, and classify the garbage when people throw it in the process of throwing it, so as to achieve the effect of garbage classification. However, since people generally do not care whether the garbage they throw is thrown into the corresponding bin during the process of throwing it, it is easy to throw the garbage into the wrong bin, which still cannot achieve the classified storage of garbage well. At the same time, due to the dirty nature of garbage, people generally will not pick up the garbage and put it back into the right bin when they find that they have thrown their garbage into the wrong bin. Therefore, the above method still cannot achieve the classified recycling of garbage well, and the existing garbage classification and recycling does not process the garbage in time. However, the existing garbage classification method only stores the kitchen waste in a centralized manner, so the kitchen waste will rot and stink after being placed for a long time due to its high moisture content.
[0004] As garbage classification has gradually become part of people's lives, many urban areas have introduced garbage classification penalty measures to standardize garbage classification. That is, garbage bags are manually inspected and fined if incorrect classification is found. However, the existence of the "human" factor makes it subjective and unfair. At the same time, this process has caused a lot of waste of human resources.
[0005] Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop an intelligent garbage sorting and recycling system with good classification effect, fast processing speed and low labor cost. Summary of the invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art such as poor classification effect, slow processing speed and high labor cost, and to provide an intelligent garbage classification and recycling system with good classification effect, fast processing speed and low labor cost.
[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0008] An intelligent garbage classification and recycling system, including an intelligent garbage bin, a recyclable garbage collection station, a composting station and a central controller;
[0009] The smart trash can includes a wet trash storage box and a dry trash storage box, and a gripper is provided on the upper part of the smart trash can for grabbing trash and placing it into its corresponding storage box;
[0010] A camera I for monitoring the dry garbage storage box is provided in the dry garbage storage box. The dry garbage storage box is connected to the recyclable garbage collection station through a pipeline I. A fan I is provided in the pipeline I for transporting the garbage in the dry garbage storage box to the recyclable garbage collection station.
[0011] A wet garbage feeding device and a bag breaking device are provided on the upper part of the wet garbage storage box. An openable wet garbage storage board is provided directly below the wet garbage feeding device in the wet garbage storage box. A camera II for monitoring the garbage on the wet garbage storage board is provided above the wet garbage storage board. The wet garbage storage board is installed on the feeding port of the pulverizer. A filter screen is provided below the discharging port of the pulverizer. The bottom of the wet garbage storage box is connected to the composting station through a pipe II. A fan II is provided in the pipe II for transporting the garbage at the bottom of the wet garbage storage box to the composting station.
[0012] The central controller is connected to the wet garbage feeding device, the bag breaking device, the camera I, the camera II, the wet garbage storage plate, the fan I and the fan II. It monitors the garbage in the dry garbage storage box and the garbage on the wet garbage storage plate in real time through the camera I and the camera II, and identifies the garbage in the dry garbage storage box and the garbage on the wet garbage storage plate (through the artificial intelligence image recognition technology), and then controls the gripper to place the garbage into its corresponding storage box. After the placement is completed, the wet garbage storage plate and the pulverizer are turned on. The wet garbage on the wet garbage storage plate enters the pulverizer. The wet garbage filtered by the filter is stored at the bottom of the wet garbage storage box at this time. The wet garbage remaining on the filter is placed in the dry garbage storage box through the gripper. Finally, the fan I and the fan II are turned on to transport the garbage in the dry garbage storage box to the recyclable garbage recycling station, and the garbage at the bottom of the wet garbage storage box is transported to the composting station.
[0013] The garbage treatment process in the wet garbage storage box is as follows: after the garbage enters, the bag breaking device (telescopic scissors) breaks the bag, and the garbage is scattered on the wet garbage storage board. The central processor obtains the garbage status through the camera II and identifies it, and controls the gripper to sort out the inorganic matter in the garbage, that is, dry garbage and put it into the dry garbage storage box. Then the wet garbage storage board is opened, and the organic hard garbage is crushed by the crusher (picking and crushing the organic hard garbage). The garbage that cannot be crushed is filtered by the filter and put into the dry garbage storage box again by the machine gripper. The crushable organic hard garbage and kitchen waste are transported by pipeline II at high pressure and put into the compostable garbage pool for fermentation. After fermentation, fuel oil, fertilizer, alcohol, biogas, activated carbon and other substances can be produced. The fertilizer produced after fermentation is transported to public lawns, gardens and other places through pipelines.
[0014] The intelligent trash cans in the intelligent garbage classification and circulation system of the present invention are arranged in the community, and users can conveniently dispose of garbage through the intelligent trash cans. At the same time, the intelligent garbage classification and circulation system of the present invention greatly reduces the amount of data processing and greatly reduces the cost compared with fully automatic classification equipment by utilizing the subjective initiative of users. The garbage is conveniently and quickly transported to the garbage station through pipelines, which greatly improves the work efficiency and reduces the labor cost compared with the traditional collection method through garbage collection vehicles. Moreover, it can be transported in real time, avoiding the odor problem that is inevitably caused by the long-term storage of wet garbage (especially kitchen garbage). In addition, the intelligent garbage classification and circulation system of the present invention performs simple processing (classification, crushing and filtering) of wet garbage at the collection end, and the composting station does not need to further process the wet garbage, which improves the efficiency of the classification cycle as a whole and has great application prospects.
[0015] As the preferred technical solution:
[0016] An intelligent garbage classification and recycling system as described above, wherein the intelligent garbage bin further comprises a hazardous garbage storage tank and a recyclable garbage storage tank;
[0017] The gripper can grab all the garbage in the storage box;
[0018] The hazardous waste storage box and the recyclable waste storage box are connected to the recyclable waste recycling station through pipes III and IV, respectively. Pipe III is provided with a fan III for transporting the waste in the hazardous waste storage box to the recyclable waste recycling station, and pipe IV is provided with a fan IV for transporting the waste in the recyclable waste storage box to the recyclable waste recycling station. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this, and other types of storage boxes can also be set in the smart trash can. Those skilled in the art can set appropriate types of storage boxes according to actual needs.
[0019] As described above, in an intelligent garbage sorting and recycling system, a weighing device I for weighing the garbage in the dry garbage storage box is provided at the bottom of the dry garbage storage box; a weighing device II is provided on the wet garbage storage plate; the hazardous garbage storage box is provided with a weighing device III for weighing the garbage in the hazardous garbage storage box and a camera III for monitoring the garbage in the hazardous garbage storage box; the recyclable garbage storage box is provided with a weighing device IV for weighing the garbage in the recyclable garbage storage box and a camera IV for monitoring the garbage in the recyclable garbage storage box.
[0020] In the intelligent garbage classification and recycling system as described above, the central controller is connected to the fan III, the fan IV, the camera III, the camera IV, the weighing device I, the weighing device II, the weighing device III and the weighing device IV.

The display screen and the garbage classification identification camera are connected to the central controller, and the intelligent garbage can is also provided with a backup power supply device connected to the mains.
[0022] In the intelligent garbage classification and recycling system as described above, after the user collects photos of the garbage to be classified through the garbage classification recognition camera, the central controller processes and obtains the type of the garbage to be classified and sends the information to the display screen, which displays the type of the garbage to be classified. That is, the garbage classification recognition camera can assist users who lack garbage classification knowledge to classify garbage, thereby popularizing garbage classification knowledge.
[0023] In the intelligent garbage classification and recycling system as described above, the central controller obtains the changes of each weighing device before and after the gripper completes the classification through weighing device I, weighing device II, weighing device III and weighing device IV, and then The garbage classification results are scored by the formula, where Y is the score, and X is the classification accuracy. The classification accuracy refers to the ratio of the weight of the garbage on the weighing device after the gripper completes the classification to the weight of the garbage on the weighing device before the gripper completes the classification. Scoring the garbage classification, on the one hand, has a certain degree of fun and can improve the user's enthusiasm for garbage classification. On the other hand, a reward and punishment system can be introduced (such as giving more points to users with high scores, which can be exchanged for prizes such as degradable garbage bags, and users with low scores (less than 60 points) have low points, and if they are below a certain standard, they need to be fined before they can continue to use them) to help users quickly form good classification habits, complement positive incentives and negative incentives, ensure fairness and justice, and maximize the supervision effect. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can design appropriate scoring standards according to actual conditions. For example, as garbage classification becomes more popular, the scoring standards can be continuously improved.
[0024] In the intelligent garbage classification and recycling system as described above, the wet garbage feeding device is a rotating rod. After the handle of the wet garbage bag is hung on the rotating rod, the rotating rod is rotated and stored in the wet garbage storage box. This design can solve the problem of users' hands being easily stained with dirty water when throwing wet garbage.
[0025] In the intelligent garbage classification and recycling system as described above, the bag breaking device is a retractable scissors, and a reversible feeding plate is provided between the wet garbage feeding device and the wet garbage storage plate.
[0026] In the intelligent garbage classification and recycling system as described above, the wet garbage bag is a degradable garbage bag with a sealable bag opening, and the sealed bag opening can prevent the odor of the wet garbage from overflowing.
