Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of garbage truck management and control technology based on the Internet of Things (IoT), specifically to a classification management system for garbage trucks based on the IoT. Background Technology

[0002] Urban waste is generated daily, so garbage trucks are needed to collect it at various collection points and transport it to waste stations for processing to ensure the normal operation of the city. Nowadays, garbage trucks are all based on the Internet of Things and can be effectively dispatched through the backend. When loading garbage, the trucks also place it into the corresponding storage space according to the type of garbage. However, the amount of each type of garbage collected varies. Sometimes the storage space for a certain type of garbage is full, so it has to be stored in other spaces. When it is transported to the waste station, the same type of garbage needs to be unloaded from different storage spaces one by one, or all the garbage needs to be dumped out at once and then sorted. This causes inconvenience to the subsequent garbage sorting, processing and transportation. Summary of the Invention

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0015] 1. This invention places different types of waste into separate classified storage chambers in different locations. When one type of waste fills one classified storage chamber and there is still waste of that type, the remaining waste of that type is transferred to other empty classified storage chambers. Based on the type of waste stored in each classified storage chamber, the classification selection control mechanism selects and connects the corresponding classification control switch group. When it is necessary to unload the same type of waste from the waste storage box at the same time, the corresponding switch in the classification control switch group is pressed, and the waste in different classified storage chambers containing the same type of waste is discharged and unloaded. In this way, the same type of waste stored in different classified storage chambers in the waste storage box can be discharged at the same time for processing.

[0016] 2. When it is necessary to unload and discharge a type of waste from the waste storage bin, the present invention first controls the hydraulic telescopic rod to extend and raise the waste storage bin. Then, it controls the drive motor to rotate the guide plate, causing one end to tilt downwards. While one end of the guide plate is tilted downwards, the other end rotates and tilts upwards. During the tilting process, the connection point of the first and second linkage rods on that side is pressed against the fixed baffle. Then, due to the compression, it extends, thus pushing the extended sliding plate connected to that side to slide outwards along the tilted end of the guide plate. In this way, when the same type of waste is discharged from different positions on both sides of the waste storage bin, it can fall onto the extended guide plate and then slide along the guide plate to one side to gather together, which is convenient for handling.

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 This invention provides a technical solution: a classification management system for garbage trucks based on the Internet of Things, comprising: a vehicle-mounted pallet 1 and a garbage storage bin 3; the garbage storage bin 3 is disposed on the vehicle-mounted pallet 1, which is fixedly connected to the garbage truck's bucket; the inner side of the garbage storage bin 3 is divided into classification storage chambers 4, each of which is used to store one type of garbage for easy classification and unloading; the classification storage chamber 4 is provided with an unloading mechanism and a classification selection control mechanism, the classification selection control mechanism comprising: a connecting cylinder 26, an electrical socket 29, an electrical plug 30, a rotating column 27, and a classification control switch group 7; a connecting cylinder 26 is fixedly connected to the top of each classification storage chamber 4, and a rotating column 27 is vertically rotatably inserted into each connecting cylinder 26; the electrical sockets 29 are equidistantly distributed around the perimeter. Multiple switches are located at the bottom edge of the connecting cylinder 26, and each switch in the classification control switch group 7 corresponds to a type of waste. Electrical sockets 29 distributed around each connecting cylinder 26 are electrically connected to the corresponding switches in the classification control switch group 7. An electrical plug 30 slides vertically through the bottom of the rotating column 27, and is aligned with the distribution path of the electrical sockets 29. The electrical plug 30 is electrically connected to the unloading mechanism in the classification storage chamber 4 at its location. The front end of the waste storage bin 3 is the main door, which allows for simultaneous opening of the front ends of each classification storage chamber 4, facilitating the selective disposal of different types of waste into different classification storage chambers 4. A same-side collection mechanism is provided between the waste storage bin 3 and the vehicle pallet 1.

[0025] An insulated handle 32 is fixedly connected to the power plug 30. The insulated handle 32 makes it convenient for the operator to insert and remove the power plug 30, and also makes it convenient for the operator to rotate the rotating column 27 to adjust the position of the power plug 30.

[0026] A return spring 31 is connected between the power plug 30 and the rotating post 27. The return spring 31 is sleeved on the power plug 30. When the power plug 30 is pulled out from the power socket 29 at a certain position, the return spring 31 enters a compressed state and generates a rebound force so that the power plug 30 can be reinserted into the power socket 29 at the corresponding position and remain stable.

[0027] Each power socket 29 is fixedly connected to a nameplate 28 on the outer wall of the connecting cylinder 26. The nameplate 28 is used to mark the waste category name corresponding to the classification control switch group 7 corresponding to the current power socket 29.

[0028] The unloading mechanism includes: an electric telescopic rod 6, a movable door 5, a push plate 8, and a linkage locking mechanism. The electric telescopic rod 6 is horizontally fixedly connected to the top of each sorting storage chamber 4. The electric telescopic rod 6 is electrically connected to the power plug 30 at its location. The movable door 5 is installed on the outside of the sorting storage chamber 4 near the garbage storage bin 3. The upper end of the movable door 5 is movably connected to the outer wall of the garbage storage bin 3 through a hinge. At the same time, the lower end of the movable door 5 is connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 6 through the linkage locking mechanism. The push plate 8 is vertically set inside the sorting storage chamber 4. The push plate 8 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 6 through a crossbar.

[0029] The linkage locking mechanism includes: a connecting sleeve 25, a fixed block 24, a steel wire 22, a strip groove 23, and a fixed pulley 21; the connecting sleeve 25 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the movable door 5 on the inner side of the classification storage chamber 4, and the connecting sleeve 25 is close to the inner edge of the classification storage chamber 4; the strip groove 23 is vertically opened on the inner wall of the classification storage chamber 4, the fixed block 24 is slidably connected to the strip groove 23, and the fixed block 24 is vertically inserted into the connecting sleeve 25; the fixed pulley 21 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the strip groove 23, the steel wire 22 is connected between the fixed block 24 and the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 6, and the steel wire 22 is wound around the fixed pulley 21.

[0030] The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 6 is equipped with a ball bearing 20, which facilitates relative sliding when the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 6 abuts against the movable door 5.

[0031] When the garbage truck transports the garbage storage bin 3 to the corresponding garbage collection point, different types of garbage are placed in different classified storage compartments 4. When one type of garbage fills one classified storage compartment 4 and there is still garbage of that type remaining, the remaining garbage of that type is transferred to another empty classified storage compartment 4. The power plug 30 connected to each classified storage compartment 4 is pulled out from its original power socket 29, and then its position is adjusted by rotating the rotating column 27. According to the type of garbage stored in the classified storage compartment 4, the power plug 30 is reinserted into the power socket 29 corresponding to the type of garbage. When it is necessary to unload the same type of garbage from the garbage storage bin 3 at the same time, the corresponding switch in the classified control switch group 7 is pressed, and the corresponding electrical connection is activated. The connected electric telescopic rod 6 then extends, allowing the electric telescopic rods 6 in different locations of the sorting storage chamber 4 containing the same type of waste to move synchronously. When the electric telescopic rod 6 extends, it pulls the steel wire 22, which, under the steering action of the fixed pulley 21, longitudinally pulls the fixed insert 24 to slide up along the strip groove 23 and disengage from the connecting sleeve 25. Thus, the movable door 5 enters the unlocked state. Then, when the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 6 touches the movable door 5, the movable door 5 rotates and tilts up, opening the sorting storage chamber 4. At the same time, the electric telescopic rod 6 drives the push plate 8 to slide outward of the sorting storage chamber 4, thereby pushing the waste in the sorting storage chamber 4 outward and unloading it. In this way, the same type of waste stored in different locations of the sorting storage chamber 4 in the waste storage box 3 can be discharged simultaneously for processing.

[0032] The fixed insert 24 is a solid iron block, which makes it easy for it to reset by gravity.

[0033] The same-side collection mechanism includes: a hydraulic telescopic rod 2, a support frame 10, a drive motor 9, a guide plate 11, a fitting slide 17, an extension slide plate 16, a connecting spring 15, a fixed baffle 12, a first linkage rod 13, and a second linkage rod 14; the hydraulic telescopic rods 2 are vertically fixedly connected in pairs between the vehicle pallet 1 and the garbage storage box 3; the support frame 10 is vertically fixedly connected to the middle position of the upper end face of the vehicle pallet 1; the drive motor 9 is fixedly connected to the support frame 10; and the guide plate 11 is horizontally fixedly connected to the main shaft end of the drive motor 9. Fittings are provided on both sides of the upper end face of the guide plate 11. The sliding groove 17 is fitted with the expansion slide plate 16. The connecting spring 15 is connected between the expansion slide plate 16 and the guide plate 11. The expansion slide plate 16 is movably connected to the first linkage rod 13 by a hinge. The end of the first linkage rod 13 is movably connected to the second linkage rod 14 by a hinge. The end of the second linkage rod 14 is movably connected to the edge of the guide plate 11 by a hinge. The fixed baffle 12 is horizontally set above the position where the first linkage rod 13 and the second linkage rod 14 are connected. The fixed baffle 12 is fixedly connected to the fixed end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 2.

[0034] When it is necessary to unload and discharge a type of waste from the waste storage bin 3, the hydraulic telescopic rod 2 is first extended to raise the waste storage bin 3. Then, the drive motor 9 is controlled to rotate the guide plate 11, causing one end to tilt downwards. While one end of the guide plate 11 is tilted downwards, the other end rotates and tilts upwards. During the tilting process, the connection point of the first linkage rod 13 and the second linkage rod 14 on that side is pressed against the fixed baffle 12. Then, due to the compression, it extends, thus pushing the extended sliding plate 16 connected to that side to slide outwards along the tilted end of the guide plate 11. In this way, when the same type of waste is discharged from different positions on both sides of the waste storage bin 3, it can fall onto the extended guide plate 11 and then slide along the guide plate 11 to one side to gather together, making it convenient for handling.

[0035] A GPS positioning device 18 is installed on the garbage storage bin 3, and an electronic weighing device 19 is installed at the bottom of each classified storage chamber 4. Both the electronic weighing device 19 and the GPS positioning device 18 are connected to the background data statistics and collection system via the network, so that when the garbage truck moves to the garbage point to load garbage, the weight and location of the loaded garbage can be obtained. In this way, the amount of garbage produced by each garbage point every day can be counted, and the frequency of garbage truck transportation operations can be adjusted according to the amount of garbage.
