Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of carbon footprint, in particular to a carbon footprint calculation compass. Background Art

[0002] Carbon footprint refers to the collection of greenhouse gas emissions caused by corporate organizations, activities, products or individuals through transportation, food production and consumption, and various production processes. It describes the impact of a person's energy awareness and behavior on the natural world, and calls on people to start with themselves. It represents the "carbon consumption" of a person or group. "Carbon" refers to natural resources composed of carbon elements such as oil, coal, and wood. The more "carbon" is consumed, the more "carbon dioxide", the culprit of global warming, is produced, and the larger the "carbon footprint"; conversely, the smaller the "carbon footprint". At present, some companies have begun to practice the environmental protection concept of reducing carbon footprint. However, most ordinary people do not understand carbon footprint.

[0003] The carbon footprint calculation compass uses the rotation function of the compass to display the carbon footprint of various daily behaviors in different units of measurement. It is relatively intuitive and easy to understand. At present, the carbon footprint calculation compass appears more in public places. If it can be improved and brought into the homes of ordinary people to promote the environmental protection concept of reducing carbon footprint, it will definitely be more effective and will be of great help in reducing global carbon consumption.

[0018] 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.

[0019] like Figure 1-5 The carbon footprint calculation compass shown includes a housing 1, and the housing 1 includes an upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12 that are movably connected. The upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 are connected by snap-fitting, plug-fitting or screw-fitting. In this embodiment, the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 are snap-fitted, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0020] It also includes an upper dial 2 and a lower dial 3 located in the housing 1 , wherein the diameter of the upper dial 2 is smaller than that of the lower dial 3 .

[0021] The upper dial 2 and the lower dial 3 are made of acrylic. The housing 1 is also an acrylic housing, so that the housing 1 is transparent, and the contents on the upper dial 2 and the lower dial 3 can be clearly seen through the housing 1. By providing the housing 1, the upper dial 2 and the lower dial 3 are protected from accidental damage, thereby extending the service life of the carbon footprint calculation compass.

[0022] It also includes a connecting shaft 4 and a bearing 5 connected to the housing 1. The top end of the connecting shaft 4 is connected to the upper shell 11, and the upper dial 2 is located at the upper end of the connecting shaft 4, and the upper dial 2 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 4. The lower dial 3 is located at the lower end of the connecting shaft 4. The lower dial 3 is connected to the connecting shaft 4 through the bearing 5, so that the lower dial 3 can rotate relative to the upper dial 2 to obtain the carbon footprint value generated when the carbon footprint activity reaches the corresponding consumption measurement.

[0023] The side of the housing 1 is provided with an opening 10 for rotating the lower dial 3, and fingers, keys, etc. can be inserted into the opening 10 to push the lower dial 3. The outer edge of the lower dial 3 is serrated, which makes it easier to push the lower dial 3. The opening 10 is located on the connecting line between the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12.

[0024] The top surfaces of the lower dial 3 and the upper dial 2 are divided into eighteen groups of equal-sized sector areas. Each sector area of ​​the upper dial 2 is provided with an observation notch 20, and the eighteen observation notches 20 are located at different latitudes. The different sector areas of the upper dial 2 are used to indicate carbon footprint activity categories, such as clothing, food, housing, travel, transportation, electricity, etc.

[0025] Each sector area of ​​the lower dial 3 is sequentially written with carbon footprint values ​​used in conjunction with the observation notches 20 from outside to inside, which are pre-calculated carbon footprint values. In this embodiment, eighteen groups of carbon footprint values ​​are sequentially written along the meridian from outside to inside in each sector area of ​​the lower dial 3, corresponding to the eighteen observation notches 20. There is a consumption meter on the edge of the lower dial 3, which is the carbon footprint amount.

[0026] There is a sticker at the bottom of the lower shell 12, on which the carbon footprint definition, carbon footprint activity categories and consumption measurement correspondence are marked, so that everyone can understand and use it skillfully.

[0027] The lower dial 3 is rotated so that the consumption measurement of the lower dial 3 is aligned with the sector area selected by the upper dial 2. By observing the notch 20, the carbon footprint value generated when the selected carbon footprint activity category reaches the corresponding consumption measurement can be seen. The structure is simple, the operation is convenient, and it is suitable for all ages. It is convenient to promote the environmental protection concept of reducing carbon footprint, so that the concept is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, thereby reducing global carbon consumption. The carbon footprint calculation compass provided by this patent is low in cost, can be widely promoted, and has a good market prospect.
