Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste recycling technology, and in particular to a waste sorting and recycling bin and its sorting and recycling method. Background Technology
[0002] Waste sorting and recycling bins are an important part of urban public facilities, designed specifically to guide the public in the scientific sorting and disposal of waste. They typically use a bright four-color combination, and the surface of the bins is often equipped with clear graphic labels and brief instructions for residents to quickly identify. They are not only a physical window into environmental protection concepts, but also a key infrastructure for cultivating citizens' environmental habits and promoting the co-construction of a green and low-carbon lifestyle. They are of great significance for improving urban governance and building a "zero-waste city".
[0003] However, due to the difficulty in supervising citizens to strictly follow the classification standards, existing technologies have developed into garbage bins that use transparent garbage bags to pack garbage. After the garbage is photographed by a camera pre-installed inside the bin, the backend verifies the photo and gives the garbage collector a cash reward, thereby guiding the public to sort garbage. However, existing garbage sorting and recycling bins require manual turning of the garbage when identifying materials, which may contaminate hands and is not conducive to the camera focusing and taking pictures. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a waste sorting and recycling bin and a sorting and recycling method thereof, which facilitates the back-end photography of the appearance of the materials.
[0005] This invention provides a waste sorting and recycling bin, including a detection system, a waste transfer system, several waste collection and storage systems, and a frame. The frame is divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber by a partition. The detection system is installed in the upper chamber, and the side wall of the upper chamber is provided with an input flap. The waste transfer system is installed on the upper side of the lower chamber, and each of the waste collection and storage systems is installed at the bottom of the lower chamber. The partition has material drop holes. The detection system includes a camera and two flipping frame devices. The two flipping frame devices include an opening and closing rod and a flipping half-frame. The opening and closing rod is rotatably installed on the inner side of the upper chamber, and the rotation axis of the opening and closing rod is vertical. The flipping half-frame is rotatably installed on the opening and closing rod, and the rotation axis of the flipping half-frame is horizontal. The two flipping half-frames are joined together to form a flipping frame. One of the opening and closing rods is connected to the input flap via a transmission. The movement trajectory of the waste transfer system passes over the upper side of each waste collection and storage system. When the input flap is closed, it pulls the two flipping half-frames to open. When the input flap is open, torsion springs drive the two flipping half-frames to close and form the flipping frame.
[0006] Preferably, the flip-up half-frame is composed of several steel rods, each of which has a diameter of less than 5 mm.
[0007] Preferably, a torsion spring is provided between the opening / closing rod and the upper chamber. When the torsion spring is in a free state, the opening / closing rod drives the two flip-up half-frames to close.
[0008] Preferably, the waste transfer system includes a waste transfer device and a waste carrying device. The waste carrying device is installed on the waste transfer device and is installed on the upper side of the lower chamber. The movement trajectory of the waste carrying device passes through the upper side of each waste collection and storage system.
[0009] Preferably, the waste transfer device includes a horizontal waste transfer rail and a vertical waste transfer rail that are perpendicular to each other. The vertical waste transfer rail is slidably mounted on the horizontal waste transfer rail, and the waste carrying device is slidably mounted on the vertical waste transfer rail.
[0010] Preferably, the waste carrying device includes a waste carrying hopper and a waste discharge plate. The waste carrying hopper is installed on the waste transfer device, and the waste discharge plate is slidably installed at the bottom of the waste carrying hopper.
[0011] Preferably, the waste collection and storage system includes a waste bin body, a reference ring, a connecting rod, and several squeezing rods. The squeezing rods are rotatably mounted on the top of the waste bin body. The waste bin body is provided with a buffer plate that slides horizontally below the squeezing rods. The two ends of the connecting rod are rotatably mounted on the reference ring and the squeezing rods, respectively. The reference ring is rotatably mounted on the waste bin body through a rotary bearing. The outer ring of the reference ring has a toothed surface. A rotary motor is provided on the waste bin body. The output end of the rotary motor is connected to the reference ring for transmission. The squeezing rods extend into the inside of the waste bin body.
[0012] The method for sorting and recycling waste using recycling bins includes the following steps:
[0013] S1: When throwing away trash, open the flip-top, and the two flip-up half-frames will close to form a flip-up frame;
[0014] S2: When rummaging through the trash, move the opening and closing lever to open the two flip-up half-frames, place the trash bag between the two flip-up half-frames, and then release the opening and closing lever so that the two opening and closing levers return to their original positions under the action of the torsion spring. The two flip-up half-frames are then joined together to form a flip frame. Move the flip-up half-frames so that the camera can illuminate various positions of the trash bag.
[0015] S3: Engage the flip panel to close, and pull the two flip half-borders to open them.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] The waste sorting and recycling bin and its sorting and recycling method provided by this invention have a frame divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber by a partition. The upper chamber is used for user feeding. A detection system is installed in the upper chamber to take pictures of the packaged materials. The side wall of the upper chamber is equipped with a feeding flap. The feeding flap is pushed inward to the inside of the frame and flipped over to feed the materials. A waste transfer system is installed on the upper side of the lower chamber to transfer the photographed materials to the upper side of each waste collection and storage system and throw the materials into the waste collection and storage system. Each waste collection and storage system is installed at the bottom of the lower chamber to realize the sorted storage of waste. The partition has material drop holes. The materials photographed by the detection system fall from the material drop holes until they fall onto the waste transfer system for transfer, which facilitates the back-end to take pictures of the appearance of the materials.
[0018] The detection system includes a camera and two flipping frame devices. The two flipping frame devices include an opening and closing rod and a flipping half-frame. The opening and closing rod is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the upper chamber through a horizontal slewing bearing. The rotation axis of the opening and closing rod is vertical, enabling the docking and disengagement of the two flipping half-frames. The flipping half-frame is rotatably mounted on the opening and closing rod through a flipping bearing. The rotation axis of the flipping half-frame is horizontal. The two flipping half-frames are joined together to form a flipping frame. When placing materials, the two flipping half-frames are pulled apart, and the materials are placed into the flipping frame. Then, the two opening and closing rods are pushed to close the two flipping half-frames, so that the two flipping half-frames are joined together to form a flipping frame.
[0019] One of the opening and closing rods is connected to the feed flap drive. When the feed flap is closed, it rotates outward, closing the frame and preventing cats and mice from entering. The feed flap drives the opening and closing rod to rotate, causing the two flipping half-frames to move away from each other, allowing the material to fall out. This achieves the transmission between the feed flap and the opening and closing rod, ensuring that the two flipping half-frames will inevitably move away from each other after the feed flap is closed. The movement trajectory of the waste transfer system passes over the upper side of each waste collection and storage system. When the feed flap closes, it pulls the two flipping half-frames open. When the feed flap opens, it pushes inward toward the frame. The torsion springs drive the two flipping half-frames to close, forming a flipping frame. It is worth noting that when the feed flap is pushed in... The opening and closing lever can be manually rotated. Specifically, when placing materials, hold the lever and rotate it towards the side closest to the user's body, causing the two flip-up half-frames to move away from each other, thus opening the two flip-up half-frames and making it easier to place materials inside. After releasing the lever, the flip-up half-frames merge into one flip-up frame under the action of the torsion spring. At this time, rotating the flip bearing causes the flip-up frame to flip, allowing photos to be taken of the material from all sides. After the material is fed, pull the pre-set handle on the feeding flap to close the feeding flap. Under the traction of the traction rope, the feeding flap automatically opens the two flip-up half-frames, allowing the material to fall into the material drop hole, facilitating the backstage to take photos of the material's appearance.

[0037] The following is combined with Figures 1-7 The present invention describes the wheeled track vehicle chassis.
[0038] This invention provides a waste sorting and recycling bin, including a detection system 1, a waste transfer system 2, several waste collection and storage systems 3, and a frame 4. The frame 4 is divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber by a partition 43. The upper chamber is used for users to put materials in. The detection system 1 is installed in the upper chamber and takes pictures of the packaged materials. The side wall of the upper chamber is provided with an input flap 41. The input flap 41 is pushed into the inside of the frame 4 and flipped over to be used for feeding materials. The waste transfer system 2 is installed on the upper side of the lower chamber and is used to transfer the photographed materials to the upper side of each waste collection and storage system 3 and throw the materials into the waste collection and storage system 3. Each waste collection and storage system 3 is installed at the bottom of the lower chamber to realize the sorting and storage of waste. The partition 43 has a material drop hole 46. The materials photographed by the detection system 1 fall from the material drop hole 46 until the materials fall onto the waste transfer system 2 for transfer.
[0039] The detection system 1 includes a camera and two flipping frame devices 11. Each flipping frame device 11 includes an opening and closing rod 111 and a flipping half-frame 112. The opening and closing rod 111 is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the upper chamber via a horizontal slewing bearing 1111. The rotation axis of the opening and closing rod 111 is vertical, enabling the two flipping half-frames 112 to dock and move away from each other. The flipping half-frames 112 are rotatably mounted on the opening and closing rod 111 via a flipping bearing 1121. The rotation axis of the flipping half-frames 112 is horizontal. The two flipping half-frames 112 are joined together to form a flipping frame. When placing materials, the two flipping half-frames 112 are pulled apart, and the materials are placed into the flipping frame. Then, the two opening and closing rods 111 are pushed to close the two flipping half-frames 112, so that the two flipping half-frames 112 are joined together to form a flipping frame.
[0040] One of the opening and closing rods 111 is connected to the input flap 41 via a traction rope 113. When the input flap 41 is closed, the input flap 41 rotates outward to close the frame 4 and prevent cats and mice from entering the frame 4. The input flap 41 drives the opening and closing rod 111 to rotate, causing the two flipping half-frames 112 to move away from each other and fall off. The traction rope 113 realizes the transmission between the input flap 41 and the opening and closing rod 111, ensuring that the two flipping half-frames 112 will move away from each other after the input flap 41 is closed. The movement trajectory of the waste transfer system 2 passes over the upper side of each waste collection and storage system 3.
[0041] Specifically, when the input flap 41 is closed, the two flip-up half-frames 112 are opened by the traction rope 113. When the input flap 41 is opened, it is pushed inward towards the inside of the frame 4. The torsion springs drive the two flip-up half-frames 112 to close and form a flip frame. It is worth noting that the input flap 41 is pushed in and temporarily fixed with a pin. When the user puts in the material, he / she can hold and rotate the opening and closing lever 111. Specifically, when placing the material, he / she holds the opening and closing lever 111 and rotates it towards the side closer to the user's body, so that the two flip-up half-frames 112 are far apart. The two flip-up half-frames 112 are opened by releasing the lever 111, which facilitates the placement of materials inside the two flip-up half-frames 112. After releasing the lever 111, the flip-up half-frames 112 merge into a single flip frame under the action of the torsion spring. At this time, the flip bearing 1121 is rotated to flip the frame, allowing for photos of the material from all sides. After the material is fed in, the pre-set handle on the feeding flap 41 is pulled to close the feeding flap 41. Under the traction of the traction rope 113, the feeding flap 41 automatically opens the two flip-up half-frames 112, allowing the material to fall into the material drop hole 46, which is convenient for the back-end to take photos of the material's appearance.
[0042] Specifically, the flip-up half-frame 112 is composed of several steel rods, each with a diameter of less than 5 millimeters, to avoid obstructing the material.
[0043] Specifically, a torsion spring is provided between the opening and closing rod 111 and the upper chamber. When the torsion spring is in a free state, two conditions must be met: first, the input flap 41 is open, so that the traction rope 113 is relaxed and does not exert traction force on the opening and closing rod 111; the other condition is that the user releases the opening and closing rod 111, so that the opening and closing rod 111 resets under the action of the torsion spring. The opening and closing rod 111 drives the two flipping half-frames 112 to close, making it easy for the user to turn the flipping half-frames 112 to realize the rotation of the material, so that all sides of the material can be photographed.
[0044] Specifically, the waste transfer system 2 includes a waste transfer device 21 and a waste carrying device 22. The waste carrying device 22 is installed on the waste transfer device 21, and the waste transfer device 21 is installed on the upper side of the lower chamber. The movement trajectory of the waste carrying device 22 passes through the upper side of each waste collection and storage system 3 to realize the transfer of materials.
[0045] Specifically, the waste transfer device 21 includes a waste transverse transfer rail 211 and a waste longitudinal transfer rail 212 that are perpendicular to each other. The waste longitudinal transfer rail 212 is slidably installed on the waste transverse transfer rail 211, and the waste carrying device 22 is slidably installed on the waste longitudinal transfer rail 212 to realize the translation of the waste carrying device 22.
[0046] Specifically, the waste carrying device 22 includes a waste carrying hopper 221 and a waste discharge plate 222. The waste carrying hopper 221 is slidably installed on the waste longitudinal transfer rail 212 of the waste transfer device 21, and the waste discharge plate 222 is slidably installed at the bottom of the waste carrying hopper 221 to control the opening and closing of the waste carrying hopper 221.
[0047] Specifically, the waste collection and storage system 3 includes a waste bin body 31, a reference ring 32, a connecting rod 33, and several squeezing rods 34. The squeezing rods 34 are rotatably mounted on the top of the waste bin body 31. The two ends of the connecting rod 33 are rotatably mounted on the reference ring 32 and the squeezing rods 34, respectively. The reference ring 32 is rotatably mounted on the waste bin body 31 via a rotary bearing. The outer ring of the reference ring 32 has a toothed surface. A rotary motor is provided on the waste bin body 31, and the output end of the rotary motor is connected to the reference ring 32. During rotation, the connecting rod 33 pushes the corresponding squeezing rod 34 to rotate, causing each squeezing rod 34 to rotate. When the squeezing rods 34 approach each other, they squeeze the material. The garbage bin body 31 is provided with a buffer plate 35 that slides horizontally below the squeezing rods 34. The squeezing rods 34 extend into the inside of the garbage bin body 31. The falling material first lands on the buffer plate 35, and the squeezing rods 34 squeeze the falling material to reduce its volume. Then, the buffer plate 35 moves horizontally under the drive of the electric push rod, causing the material to fall into the corresponding garbage bin body 31.
[0048] The method for sorting and recycling waste using recycling bins includes the following steps:
[0049] S1: When throwing away trash, open the inlet flap 41, and the two flip-up half-frames 112 close to form a flip-up frame;
[0050] S2: When rummaging through the garbage, move the opening and closing lever 111 to open the two flip half-frames 112, put the garbage bag between the two flip half-frames 112, and then release the opening and closing lever 111 so that the two opening and closing levers 111 return to their original positions under the action of the torsion spring. The two flip half-frames 112 are then assembled into a flip frame. Move the flip half-frames 112 to make the camera illuminate various positions of the garbage bag.
[0051] S3: When the flip plate 41 is closed, it pulls the two flip half-frames 112, causing the two flip half-frames 112 to open, allowing the material to fall.
[0052] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
