[0025] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0026] like Figure 1-9 As shown, the smart trash can includes a controller, a storage bucket 10, a bucket cover 11, a trash bag storage box 12, a conveying mechanism and a control mechanism.
[0027] The storage bucket 10 is provided with an inner cavity for storing the garbage bag 20. It should be understood that the height of the first side 201 of the top opening of the garbage bag 20 of this embodiment is higher than the height of the second side 202 of the top opening of the garbage bag 20.
[0028] It is worth noting that, before the garbage bag 20 is used, it is arranged in a sheet shape, that is, the height of the first side 201 of the top opening of the garbage bag 20 arranged in a sheet shape is higher than the height of the second side 202 of the top opening of the garbage bag 20 .
[0029] The barrel cover 11 is arranged above the receiving barrel 10. It should be understood that the barrel cover 11 is sealed and arranged above the receiving tube 10.
[0030] In the present embodiment, the barrel cover 11 includes a lower barrel cover 111 sealed above the receiving barrel 10 and an upper barrel cover 112 sealed above the lower barrel cover 111 .
[0031] It should be understood that, in order to facilitate disassembly, the lower barrel cover 111 is detachably disposed above the storage barrel 10 , and the upper barrel cover 112 is detachably disposed above the lower barrel cover 111 .
[0032] Further, in other embodiments, one end of the lower barrel cover 111 is rotatably disposed on the top of the storage barrel 10. Specifically, a third motor connected to the controller is fixedly disposed on the lower barrel cover 111, wherein a fourth gear is fixedly disposed on the rotating shaft of the third motor, and a fifth gear is fixedly disposed on the top of the storage barrel 10, and the fourth gear and the fifth gear are engaged, so that when the third motor rotates, the third motor drives the lower barrel cover 111 to rotate along the fifth gear.
[0033] Preferably, the lower barrel cover 111 is provided with a first receiving opening 1110 corresponding to the inner cavity of the receiving barrel 10, and the upper barrel cover 112 is provided with a second receiving opening 1120 corresponding to the first receiving opening 1110. It should be understood that the garbage enters the inner cavity of the receiving barrel 10 through the second receiving opening 1120 and the first receiving opening 1110.
[0034] It is worth noting that the area of the first receiving opening 1110 is equal to or slightly smaller than the area of the inner cavity of the receiving bucket 10 , wherein the area of the first receiving opening 1110 and the area of the second receiving opening 1120 are equal and correspond to each other.
[0035] The garbage bag receiving box 12 is used to receive garbage bags, wherein the garbage bag receiving box 12 is disposed on one end of the lower barrel cover 111 along the first direction A. It should be understood that the garbage bag receiving box 12 is disposed above the edge of the first receiving opening 1110 of the lower barrel cover 111 .
[0036] In this embodiment, the bottom of the garbage bag storage box 12 is provided with an output port for outputting the sheet-shaped garbage bags 20. It should be understood that the output port of the garbage bag storage box 12 is also arranged above the edge of the first receiving port 1110 of the lower barrel cover 111, so the garbage bags 20 output from the output port of the garbage bag storage box 12 enter the storage barrel 10 through the first receiving port 1110.
[0037] In addition, the output port of the garbage bag storage box 12 is also arranged above the edge of the first receiving port 1110 of the lower barrel cover 111, so the sheet-shaped garbage bag 20 falls on the edge of the storage barrel 10. Since the garbage bag 20 has a certain gravity, the garbage bag 20 will fall on the edge of the inner cavity of the storage barrel 10 according to gravity during the falling process.
[0038] In this embodiment, a garbage bag roll is wound in the garbage bag storage box 12, wherein the garbage bag roll includes a plurality of detachable garbage bags 20. It should be understood that the plurality of garbage bags 20 are detachably connected end to end, that is, the garbage bags 20 can be disassembled with only a little force.
[0039] Preferably, when the garbage bag 20 is at the edge of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10 , the first side 201 of the garbage bag 20 is arranged close to the edge of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10 , and the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 is arranged away from the edge of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10 .
[0040] The conveying mechanism is disposed at one end of the lower barrel cover 111 and is used to control the sheet-shaped garbage bag 20 to be outputted into the inner cavity of the receiving barrel 10 along the first receiving opening 1110 .
[0041] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism is connected to the controller, so that the controller controls the conveying mechanism to control the sheet-shaped garbage bag 20 to be output along the first receiving opening 1110 into the inner cavity of the receiving bucket 10 .
[0042] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism includes a first rotating rod 131 and a second rotating rod 132 located below the output port of the garbage bag storage box 12, wherein the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 are arranged in the same horizontal plane, and the garbage bag 20 is accommodated between the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132, so that the garbage bag 20 is driven to descend by the rotation of the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132.
[0043] Preferably, the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 are spaced apart and are located above the edge of the first receiving opening 1110, so that the garbage bag 20 output from the output port of the garbage bag receiving box 12 falls on the edge of the inner cavity of the receiving bucket 10. It should be understood that the garbage bag 20 output from the output port of the garbage bag receiving box 12 passes between the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 and falls to the edge of the inner cavity of the receiving bucket 10.
[0044] It is worth noting that the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 are tightly connected, that is, the gap between the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 is relatively small. When the garbage bag 20 is between the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 (the garbage bag 20 is artificially inserted between the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132), the rotation of the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 can apply friction to the garbage bag 20 to drive the garbage bag 20 to descend.
[0045] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism also includes a second motor 133 arranged at one end of the lower barrel cover 111 and connected to the controller, wherein the rotating shaft of the second motor 133 is provided with a second gear 1331, one end of the first rotating rod 131 is provided with a third gear 1311 meshing with the second gear 1331, and one end of the second rotating rod 132 is provided with a fourth gear meshing with the third gear 1311, so as to drive the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 to rotate through the rotation of the second motor 133.
[0046] The control mechanism is connected to the controller, wherein the control mechanism includes a movable plate 141 for moving along the second direction B to open the sheet-shaped garbage bag 20 in the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10 and for moving along the third direction C to close the opened garbage bag 20 in the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10. Preferably, the second direction B and the third direction C are opposite, and the first direction A is perpendicular to the second direction B and the third direction C.
[0047] That is to say, when the movable plate 141 moves along the second direction B, it can open the sheet-shaped garbage bag 20 at the edge of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10. When the garbage bag 20 is in an open state, if the movable plate 141 moves along the third direction C again, the open garbage bag 20 in the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10 will be closed, so that the garbage bag in the garbage bin can be automatically opened and closed. It is highly intelligent, can meet people's high-quality life, and greatly improves the user experience.
[0048] In this embodiment, a connecting strip 142 for connecting to the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 is provided on one side of the movable plate 141. It should be understood that the connecting strip 142 can stick to the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20, that is, the connecting strip 142 or the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 in this embodiment has adhesiveness, so that the connecting strip 142 and the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 can stick to each other when they come into contact.
[0049] Preferably, the connection bar 142 is in a convex strip shape, and the connection bar 142 is arranged along the first direction A.
[0050] Furthermore, the control mechanism also includes a fixed plate 143 arranged at one end of the lower barrel cover 111 and below the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132, wherein the fixed plate 143 and the movable plate 141 are in the same horizontal plane, and the fixed plate 143 and the movable plate 141 correspond to each other.
[0051] In this embodiment, the first ridge 1431 and the second ridge 1432 are arranged at intervals along the first direction A at one end of the fixed plate 143 facing the movable plate 141, wherein the connecting strip 142 is located between the first ridge 1431 and the second ridge 1432. That is, when the movable plate 141 moves toward the movable plate 141 and approaches the fixed plate 143, the connecting strip 142 is accommodated between the first ridge 1431 and the second ridge 1432.
[0052] Preferably, the connecting strip 142, the first convex strip 1431 and the second convex strip 1432 are arranged in a long strip shape, and the lengths of the connecting strip 142, the first convex strip 1431 and the second convex strip 1432 are equal. Further, the width of the connecting strip 142 is equal to or slightly smaller than the width between the first convex strip 1431 and the second convex strip 1432.
[0053] It should be understood that in some embodiments, the first convex strip 1431 is provided with a first heating element connected to the controller, and the second convex strip 1432 is provided with a second heating element connected to the controller, wherein when the movable plate 141 drives the connecting strip 142 connected to the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 to be accommodated between the first convex strip 1431 and the second convex strip 1432, the controller controls the first heating element and the second heating element to generate heat so that the first side 201 and the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 can be heat-melted and sealed. It is worth noting that the heat generated by the first heating element and the second heating element can just cause the first side 201 and the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 to heat-melt and adhere to each other.
[0054] It is worth noting that the connecting strip 142 is provided with a plurality of sensors connected to the controller at intervals along its length direction. When the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 is adhered to the connecting strip 142, the second side 202 of the garbage bag 20 blocks the sensor. At this time, the controller determines that the connecting strip 142 is adhered to the garbage bag 20. When the plurality of sensors are not blocked, the controller determines that the connecting strip 142 is not adhered to the garbage bag 20.
[0055] In this embodiment, the control mechanism also includes a first slide rail 144 and a second slide rail 145 which are spaced apart along the second direction B below the upper barrel cover 112 and on both sides of the first receiving opening 1110, wherein a first slider is movably provided below the first slide rail 144, and a second slider is movably provided below the second slide rail 145, and the first slider is connected to one end of the movable plate 141, and the second slider is connected to the other end of the movable plate 141, so that the movable plate 141 can be movably provided in the first slide rail 144 and the second slide rail 145 along the second direction B and the third direction C.
[0056] In this embodiment, the bottom of the first slide rail 144 is provided with a first slide groove 1441 arranged along the second direction B and a first slot 1442 communicating with the first slide groove 1441, wherein a first roller 1443 is rotatably arranged in the first slide groove 1441, and a first slider passes through the first slot 1442 and is connected to the first roller 1443, so that the first slider moves along the first slide groove 1441 through the first roller 1443. Further, the bottom of the second slide rail 145 is provided with a second slide groove 1451 arranged along the second direction B and a second slot 1452 communicating with the second slide groove 1451, wherein a second roller 1453 is rotatably arranged in the second slide groove 1451, and a second slider passes through the second slot 1452 and is connected to the second roller 1453, so that the second slider moves along the second slide groove 1451 through the second roller 1453.
[0057] Further, a gear bar 146 arranged along the second direction B is provided below the first slide rail 144 or the second slide rail 145, wherein a first motor 147 connected to the controller is fixedly provided on the moving plate 141, a first gear 1471 is fixedly provided on the rotating shaft of the first motor 147, and the first gear 1471 is engaged with the gear bar 146, so that when the first motor 147 rotates, the moving plate 141 is driven to move on the gear bar 146 along the second direction B or the third direction C. It should be understood that, since the first gear 1471 is engaged with the gear bar 146 (i.e., the first gear 1471 and the gear bar 146 are gear-connected to each other), when the first motor 147 rotates, the first motor 147 will move along the gear bar 146, and the first motor 147 is fixedly provided on the moving plate 141, so the moving plate 141 moves along the gear bar 146 in the first slide rail 144 and the second slide rail 145.
[0058] Further, in this embodiment, a cover door 1121 is provided above the upper barrel cover 112, which automatically opens when a person approaches and automatically closes when no one is detected, wherein the cover door 1121 is used to cover the second receiving opening 1120. It should be understood that the upper barrel cover 112 is provided with a distance sensor connected to the controller and a cover door motor connected to the controller, when the distance sensor detects that a person approaches, the controller controls the cover door motor to rotate to open the cover door 1121, and when the distance sensor detects that a person moves away, the controller controls the cover door motor to rotate in the opposite direction to close the cover door 1121.
[0059] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a first sensor for detecting whether the garbage bag 20 has dropped to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 20 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10, wherein the first sensor is connected to the controller. Specifically, the first sensor emits infrared rays toward the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10. When the bottom of the garbage bag 20 drops to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 20, the bottom of the garbage bag 20 blocks the infrared rays. At this time, the first sensor detects that the garbage bag 20 has dropped to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10. When the bottom of the garbage bag 20 has not dropped to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 20, the bottom of the garbage bag 20 will not block the infrared rays. At this time, the first sensor determines that the garbage bag 20 has not dropped to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10. In addition, when the first sensor detects that the bottom of the garbage bag 20 has dropped to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10, the controller controls the second motor to stop rotating.
[0060] Further, in this embodiment, a second sensor for detecting whether the garbage bag 20 has been taken away is also provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10, wherein the second sensor is connected to the controller. It should be understood that when it is detected that the garbage bag 20 has not been taken away, the alarm provided on the upper bucket cover 112 generates an alarm.
[0061] Specifically, the second sensor is a weight sensor. When the user wants to take away the garbage bag 20 (the user can manually press the garbage cleaning button to determine whether the garbage bag needs to be taken away), the second sensor detects the weight of the garbage bag 20 in the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10. After a preset time, if the second sensor still detects that the weight of the garbage bag 20 in the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10 is still the same, it is determined that the garbage bag 20 has not been taken away, and the alarm set on the upper bucket cover 112 generates an alarm.
[0062] Furthermore, in this embodiment, an ozone generator connected to the controller is provided in the lower barrel cover 111, wherein a side of the lower barrel cover 111 facing the storage barrel 10 is provided with an injection port connected to the ozone generator. In addition, the controller controls the ozone generator to generate ozone at intervals, so as to inject ozone into the storage barrel through the injection port, so as to sterilize and disinfect the garbage bag in the storage barrel 10 and the storage barrel 10.
[0063] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a rechargeable lithium battery is provided in the lower barrel cover 111, wherein the lithium battery is connected to the controller, the motor and other devices so as to power the trash can through the lithium battery.
[0064] The specific working principle is as follows:
[0065] When the garbage bag 20 is not installed in the inner cavity of the storage barrel 10, the movable plate 141 is not connected to the fixed plate 143;
[0066] When it is determined that the cover door 1121 is open, all components of the trash can stop working, and the trash bag 20 in the trash bag receiving box 12 can be manually inserted between the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132; if it is determined that the cover door 1121 is closed, the controller controls the second motor 133 to rotate, and the second motor 133 drives the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 to rotate, and the rotation of the first rotating rod 131 and the second rotating rod 132 drives the trash bag 20 to descend in the inner cavity of the receiving barrel 10;
[0067] When the first sensor detects that the bottom of the garbage bag 20 drops to the bottom of the inner cavity of the storage bucket 10, the controller controls the second motor 133 to stop rotating, and at the same time controls the first motor 147 to rotate, and the rotation of the second motor 147 drives the movable plate 141 to move toward the fixed plate 143 (i.e., the third direction C);
[0068] When the movable plate 141 is connected to the fixed plate 143 and it is determined that the connecting strip 142 of the movable plate 141 is connected to the second edge 202 of the top of the garbage bag 20, the controller controls the first motor 147 to rotate in the reverse direction to drive the movable plate 141 to move in a direction away from the fixed plate 143 (i.e., the second direction B) to open the garbage bag 20;
[0069] When it is determined that the garbage bag needs to be closed (by manually pressing the garbage cleaning button), the controller controls the first motor 147 to drive the movable plate 141 to move toward the fixed plate 143 (i.e., the third direction C).
