[0017] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the various embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings, but it should be noted that these embodiments are not limitations of the present invention, and any equivalent transformations or substitutions in functions, methods, or structures made by ordinary technicians in the field based on these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] like Figure 1-4 The device for displaying the carbon footprint value of a product shown in the figure comprises a shell cover 11 and a shell body 1 connected to each other. The shell cover 11 and the shell body 1 are screwed, snapped or hinged. In this embodiment, screwing is preferred, and the structure is stable and not easy to be opened. The shell cover 11 is an acrylic shell cover, so that the contents on the upper plate 3 and the lower plate 2 can be clearly seen when the shell cover 11 is not opened, which plays a protective role on the internal structure of the shell body 1.

[0019] It also includes an upper plate 3 and a lower plate 2 located in the housing 1. A through hole 20 is provided at the center of the lower plate 2, and the rotating shaft 451 of the stepping motor 45 passes through the through hole 20 and is connected to the center of the upper plate 3. The rotation of the rotating shaft 451 can drive the upper plate 3 to rotate synchronously. A boss (not shown) extending inward is provided on the inner wall of the housing 1, and the lower plate 2 is connected to the boss by screws 21, which plays a role in fixing the lower plate 2 to prevent the lower plate 2 from being affected during the rotation of the upper plate 3, thereby affecting the numerical accuracy.

[0020] The housing 1 is provided with an electrically connected voice control module 42, a single chip microcomputer 43, a drive board 44, a stepper motor 45, and a rechargeable battery 41. There are many models of the voice control module 42, the single chip microcomputer 43, the drive board 44, and the stepper motor 45 to choose from. In this embodiment, the voice control module 42 is LD3320, the single chip microcomputer 43 is STC89C52RC, the drive board 44 is TB6600, and the stepper motor 45 is 42BYGH39-401A. The rechargeable battery 41 is used to power the voice control module 42, the single chip microcomputer 43, the drive board 44, and the stepper motor 45. A USB charging port 411 and a control switch 412 are provided on the side of the housing 1.

[0021] The housing 1 is provided with a mesh opening 10 on its side, and the mesh opening 10 is arranged close to the voice control module 42. Sound can clearly reach the voice control module 42 through the mesh opening 10.

[0022] The top surfaces of the upper plate 3 and the lower plate 2 are divided into eight groups of equal-sized fan-shaped areas. Each fan-shaped area of ​​the upper plate 3 is provided with an observation slot 30, and the eight observation slots 30 are located at different latitudes. The different fan-shaped areas of the upper plate 3 are used to indicate product categories such as airplanes, cars, electric cars, washing machines, air conditioners, etc., so that everyone can have a specific understanding of the carbon footprint values ​​brought by these commonly used products. In each fan-shaped area of ​​the lower plate 2, eight carbon footprint values ​​are written in sequence from the outside to the inside along the meridian, corresponding to the eight observation slots 30, which are the carbon footprint values ​​calculated in advance. There is a consumption meter 22 at the edge of the lower plate 2, which is the product consumption quantity, such as N kilometers of car driving, N minutes of air conditioning use, etc. There is a corresponding relationship between the consumption quantity of each product and the consumption meter 22. For example, 100 displayed in the consumption meter 22 represents 100 kilometers of car driving, 100 minutes of air conditioning use, 10 kilometers of electric car driving, etc. This corresponding relationship can be adjusted as needed, and a corresponding relationship diagram is issued for easy identification.

[0023] The working principle of the device for displaying the carbon footprint value of a product is as follows: select the product in the upper plate 3, select the consumption meter 22 to be achieved by the product, turn on the control switch 412, and say "motor (or other name), forward (reverse) rotation" to the mesh opening 10. The voice control module 42 receives the audio signal and converts it into a digital signal, and transmits the digital signal to the single-chip microcomputer 43. The single-chip microcomputer 43 processes it and converts it into an instruction and sends it to the drive board 44. The drive board 44 receives the command and drives the stepper motor 45 to start, driving the upper plate 3 to rotate. When the selected upper plate is rotated, the voice control module 42 receives the audio signal and converts it into a digital signal, and transmits the digital signal to the single-chip microcomputer 43. After processing, the single-chip microcomputer 43 converts it into an instruction and sends it to the drive board 44. The drive board 44 receives the command and drives the stepper motor 45 to start, driving the upper plate 3 to rotate. When the product in the tray 3 reaches the corresponding consumption meter 22, say "motor, stop rotating" to the mesh opening 10, the voice control module 42 receives the audio signal and converts it into a digital signal, and transmits the digital signal to the single chip microcomputer 43, which is processed by the single chip microcomputer 43 and converted into an instruction and sent to the driver board 44. The driver board 44 receives the command to stop the stepper motor 45, and the upper tray 3 does not rotate. At this time, the carbon footprint value seen by observing the notch 20 is the carbon footprint value generated when the selected product reaches the corresponding consumption meter 22, and finally closes the control switch 412. In addition, the program can be recorded in advance on the driver board 44 to make the upper tray 3 rotate 45° at a time, which is exactly the angle of a sector area, so that the sector areas of the upper tray 3 and the lower tray 2 can completely overlap each time they rotate.

[0024] The whole process is simple, convenient, fast, lively and interesting, and avoids everyone turning the upper plate 3 by hand, which protects the overall mechanical structure and prolongs the service life. It is suitable for being placed in public places, so that everyone can have a specific understanding of the carbon footprint values ​​brought by commonly used products, and the environmental protection concept of reducing carbon footprint is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, thereby reducing global carbon consumption.

They are not intended to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any equivalent implementation methods or changes that do not deviate from the technical spirit of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
