[0019] The specific embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below. It should be understood that the description of the embodiments of the present invention herein is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the structure of the garbage bin that helps to realize automatic unloading provided by the present invention. The garbage bin that helps to realize automatic unloading includes a frame 10, a discharge door 20 arranged on the frame 10, and a push door 30 arranged on the frame 10. It can be imagined that the garbage bin that helps to realize automatic unloading also includes other functional modules, such as an installation module, an assembly module, and an electrical connection module, etc., which are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail one by one here.

[0021] The frame 10 is a square frame welded from steel and used to contain garbage. Its volume can be set according to actual needs, which will not be described in detail. Specifically, the frame 10 is a square frame to accommodate more garbage and is also conducive to cooperating with other mechanisms.

[0022] The discharge door 20 includes a door panel 21 pivotally connected to the frame 10, at least one door lock 22 arranged between the door panel 21 and the frame 10, and two opening and closing mechanisms 23 respectively arranged on both sides of the door panel and located between the door panel 21 and the frame 10. The door panel 21 is located on the side wall of the frame 10 and covers the frame 10 to prevent the garbage in the frame 10 from leaking out from the door panel 21. The door panel 21 can be connected to the frame 10 through a pivot 211, so that the door panel 21 can be opened and closed. The door lock 22 includes a hook 221 arranged at the bottom of the frame 10, a driving rod 222 arranged on the door panel 21, and a connecting rod 223 connecting the driving rod 222 and the opening and closing mechanism 23. The hook 221 can be an L-shaped structure, one end of which is fixed to the bottom of the frame 10. The hook 221 can also be a component with a through hole. When the hook 221 is an L-shaped structure, the driving rod 222 is clamped on the other end of the hook 221 of the L-shaped structure. When the hook 221 has a through hole, one end of the driving rod 222 is inserted into the through hole to snap or cover the door panel 21 on the frame 10. The driving rod 222 is slidably inserted on the door panel 21, so that the positions of the driving rod 222 and the door panel 21 can be relatively fixed. When the driving rod 222 is inserted into the hook 221, the door panel 21 and the frame 10 are locked. When the driving rod 222 is separated from the hook 221, the door panel 21 can be rotated away from the frame 10 to discharge the garbage from the door panel 21. The connecting rod 223 connects the driving rod 222 and the rotating component 232 of the opening and closing mechanism 23 to drive the driving rod 222 to reciprocate under the rotation of the rotating component 232, so as to achieve coupling and decoupling between the driving rod 222 and the hook 221, which will be described in detail below in conjunction with the opening and closing mechanism 23.

[0023] The opening and closing mechanism 23 includes a push-pull member 231 pivoted on the frame 10, a rotating assembly 232 connected between the push-pull member 231 and the door panel 21, and a driving mechanism 233 driving the push-pull member 232 to rotate. The push-pull member 231 includes a sleeve 2311 pivoted on the frame 10, a driving shaft 2312 pivoted on the driving mechanism 23, and a travel kit 2313 movably connected to the rotating assembly 232. The push-pull member 231 can be a triangular structure, and the positions of the sleeve 2311, the driving shaft 2312, and the travel kit 2313 on the push-pull member 231 are arranged in a triangular shape to realize the opening and closing of the door panel 21. The sleeve 2311 is pivoted to the frame 10, specifically, the sleeve 2311 is sleeved on the pivot 211 of the door panel 21, so that the push-pull member 231 can rotate around the pivot 211. The driving shaft 2312 is connected to the driving mechanism 233 for rotation. When the driving mechanism 233 is output, it can rotate around the driving shaft 2312 while pushing the push-pull member 231 to rotate around the pivot 211, thereby driving the travel kit 2313 to rotate. The travel kit 2313 includes a slotted hole 2314 and a limiting mechanism 2315 inserted in the slotted hole 2314. The slotted hole 2314 is connected to the rotating assembly 232 to drive the rotating assembly 232 to move. Specifically, it will be described in detail below. The limiting mechanism 2315 includes a plug 2316 perpendicular to the length direction of the slotted hole 2314, a marble 2317 set in the plug 2316, a stud 2318 screwed in the plug 2316, and a return spring 2319 sandwiched between the marble 2317 and the stud 2318. The marble 2317 partially extends out of the insertion hole 2316 and is located in the middle along the length direction of the slotted hole 2314. The working principle of the limiting mechanism 2315 will be described in detail together with the rotating assembly 232 below.

[0024] The rotating assembly 232 includes a seat body 2321 disposed on the door panel 21, a rotating shaft 2322 inserted in the seat body 2321, first and second connecting plates 2323, 2324 respectively disposed at both ends of the rotating shaft 2322, and first and second connecting shafts 2325, 2326 respectively disposed on the first and second connecting plates 2323, 2324. The seat body 2321 is fixedly connected to the door panel 21 and has a through hole for inserting the rotating shaft 2322. The rotating shaft 2322 is inserted in the seat body 2321 and can rotate. The first and second connecting plates 2323, 2324 are fixedly disposed at two free ends of the rotating shaft 2322, i.e., located on both sides of the seat body 2321. The extending directions of the first and second connecting plates 2323, 2324 are perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 2322. The first and second connecting shafts 2325 and 2326 are fixedly arranged on the first and second connecting plates 2323 and 2324, and are arranged on both sides of the first and second connecting plates 2323 and 2324 respectively with the rotating shaft 2322, and are spaced apart from the rotating shaft 2322. In addition, in order to make the rotation of the first and second connecting shafts 2325 and 2326 controllable, the axial directions of the first and second connecting shafts 2325 and 2326 are parallel to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 2322. When connected, the first connecting shaft 2325 is clamped between the marble 2317 and one end of the slot-shaped hole 2314. When the door panel cover is arranged on the frame 10, the first connecting shaft 2317 is clamped between the marble 2317 and the left end of the slot-shaped hole 2314, and when the door panel 21 is opened, the first connecting shaft 2317 is clamped between the marble 2317 and the right end of the slot-shaped hole 2314. In order to prevent the door panel 21 from being closed when it is opened without being acted upon by external force or its own gravity, the elastic force of the return spring 2319 causes the marble 2317 to extend out of the insertion hole 2316 to prevent the door panel 21 from moving during use. The second connecting shaft 2326 is connected to the other end of the driving rod 222 so that when the second connecting shaft 2326 rotates, the driving rod 222 is driven to reciprocate. Specifically, when the door panel 21 is opened, the second connecting shaft 2326 drives the driving rod 222 to disengage from the coupling engagement with the hook 221, and when the door panel 21 is opened, the second connecting shaft 2326 drives the driving rod 222 to be reinserted into the hook 221 to achieve the function of a door lock. In order to achieve the above functions, the first and second connecting plates 2323 and 2324 are arranged in the same direction and rotate in the same direction, that is, they rotate in the same direction. In order to make the movement smoother, the connecting rod 223 is movably arranged between the driving rod 222 and the second connecting shaft 2326 to achieve a movable connection and increase the degree of freedom.

[0025] The driving mechanism 233 can be a cylinder or a linear motor, which can be arranged on the frame 10 or on other mechanisms, such as a garbage transfer platform. When arranged on the garbage transfer platform, the output end of the driving mechanism 233 needs to be connected to the driving shaft 2312 of the push-pull member 231 and rotated each time the garbage is dumped. In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 233 is arranged on the frame 10, and its output end is rotationally connected to the driving shaft 2312, and the tail end is also rotationally connected to the frame 10.

[0026] The push door 30 is arranged on the opposite side of the door panel 21, and is used to push out the garbage in the frame 10 under the action of external force. When the door panel 21 is opened, a resisting force is provided to the push door 30, such as a motor, so that the garbage in the frame 10 can be pushed out from the door panel 21.

[0027] In order to move and hoist the frame 10, the garbage bin that helps to achieve automatic unloading also includes at least two hooks 40 respectively arranged on the two side walls of the frame 10, and at least two rollers 50 respectively arranged at the bottom of the frame 10. The door panel 21 is located between the hook 30 and the roller 50. The hook 40 is used to hoist the garbage bin onto a work surface, such as a box of a garbage transfer truck, under the action of an external force for unloading. The roller 50 is used to drag from one workstation, such as a garbage sorting workstation, to another workstation, such as a garbage transfer truck. The hook 40 and the roller 50 are a prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the garbage bin provided by the present invention that helps to realize automatic unloading has the unloading door 20, and the unloading door 20 has the door lock 22 and the opening and closing mechanism 23, the opening and closing mechanism 23 includes a push-pull member 231, a rotating component 232, and a driving mechanism 233, the push-pull member 231 is a triangular structure, and the rotating component 232 includes a rotating shaft 2321, and a first and a second connecting shaft 2322, 2323 connected to the rotating shaft 2321, when the driving mechanism 233 drives the push-pull member 231 to rotate, the push-pull member 231 The first connecting shaft 2322 of the rotating component 232 rotates and at the same time, the door panel 21 rotates and opens. When the first connecting shaft 2322 rotates, it drives the rotating shaft 2321 to rotate, thereby driving the second connecting shaft 2323 to rotate. When the second connecting shaft 2323 rotates, the driving rod 222 disengages from the coupling with the hook 221, thereby unlocking the connection between the door panel 21 and the frame 10, so that the garbage in the frame 10 can be pushed out of the unloading door 20 under the push of the pushing door 30, thereby providing the possibility for the garbage bin to realize automatic unloading.

[0029] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent substitution or improvement within the spirit of the present invention is included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
