For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-3As shown in the figure, an intelligent trash can is provided, which includes a barrel body 100; a cavity 110 is provided inside the barrel body 100, and the cavity 110 communicates with the outside through an opening 120. The cavity 110 is used for loading garbage; a cover body 200 is arranged at the opening 120. A garbage throwing port 210 is arranged on the cover body 200. The garbage throwing port 210 communicates with the cavity 110. A baffle 220 is arranged at the garbage throwing port 210. The top end of the baffle 220 is rotatably connected to the cover body 200, and the bottom end of the baffle 220 is connected to a driving device. The driving device can drive the baffle 220 to rotate to close or open the garbage throwing port 210; a solar panel assembly is arranged on the top of the cover body 200, and the solar panel assembly can supply energy to the driving device; and a sensor 500 is arranged on the cover body 200. The sensor 500 is electrically connected to the driving device. The sensor 500 can sense the approach of a human body, and the driving device drives the baffle 220 to open the garbage throwing port 210.

[0033] Specifically, when a human body approaches the intelligent trash can, the sensor 500 senses the approach of the human body, controls the driving device to drive the baffle 220 to open the garbage throwing port 210, and people throw the garbage into the garbage throwing port 210. When the human body moves away, the sensor 500 senses the departure of the human body and controls the driving device to drive the baffle 220 to close the garbage throwing port 210. It can be understood that a PCB circuit board is arranged inside the sensor 500, and being electrically connected to the driving device can control the movement of the driving device.

[0034] Further, a solar panel assembly is arranged on the cover body 200. The solar panel assembly can be electrically connected to the driving device and can continuously supply energy to the driving device.

[0035] Further, by arranging the sensor 500, the approach of the human body can be recognized, and the garbage throwing port 210 can be opened when the human body approaches, which is convenient for throwing garbage. People do not need to step on or press, avoiding soiling the human body. When there is no one, the garbage throwing port 210 can be closed to reduce the emission of peculiar smell; at the same time, a solar panel assembly is arranged, which can realize energy supply for the driving device, is green and environmentally friendly, and reduces the long-term operation cost.

[0036] In another embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 1-3 shown, the cover body 200 includes a throwing part 230; a garbage throwing port 210 is arranged on the throwing part 230, and the garbage throwing port 210 is arranged laterally. Specifically, the garbage throwing port 210 communicates with the cavity 110. It can be known that the inside of the throwing part 230 also communicates with the cavity 110. The garbage throwing port 210 is arranged laterally, and the angle formed by the garbage throwing port 210 and the cover body 200 is A, 90° < A < 120°. Compared with the top opening 120, on the one hand, it can reduce the emission of peculiar smell, and on the other hand, it can prevent rainwater from falling into the barrel body 100 and mixing with the garbage, which is easy to rot and breed bacteria. When the formed angle is greater than 90° it is vertical, and rainwater will not enter from the garbage throwing port 210. When it is less than 120°, it is to ensure the size of the garbage throwing port 210 to prevent large garbage from not being able to be thrown in.

[0037] Furthermore, an arc is formed from the top to the bottom of the delivery portion 230 , so that when it rains, rainwater can flow down quickly without remaining on the delivery portion 230 .

[0038] In another embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the solar panel assembly includes a solar charging panel 410 and a solar battery 420 connected to the solar charging panel 410; a solar panel charging panel is provided on the top of the delivery portion 230. Specifically, the solar battery 420 is arranged on the inner wall of the delivery portion 230, the solar panel charging panel is installed on the top of the delivery portion 230, and the solar charging panel 410 is electrically connected to the solar battery 420. The top of the delivery portion 230 has good sunlight, and the solar charging panel 410 can be installed to charge quickly and store electricity in the solar battery 420. When it is cloudy, the electricity in the solar battery 420 can be used to supplement the power supply for the drive device.

[0039] In another embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, the driving device includes an electric push rod 300; the electric push rod 300 is arranged on the inner wall of the delivery portion 230, and the telescopic rod 310 of the electric push rod 300 is connected to the bottom end of the baffle 220. The telescopic rod 310 can drive the baffle 220 to rotate to close or open the delivery entrance 210.

[0040] Specifically, the electric push rod 300 is electrically connected to the solar battery 420, which can be used to supplement the power of the electric push rod 300. The top of the baffle 220 is rotatably connected to the top of the inlet 210, and the bottom of the baffle 220 is connected to the telescopic rod 310 of the electric push rod 300. The telescopic rod 310 can drive the baffle 220 to rotate and close or open the inlet 210.

[0041] In another embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-3 As shown, the bottom side of the cover 200 is provided with a first escape position 240, and a gap is formed between the first escape position 240 and the edge of the opening 120, and the gap can facilitate opening the cover 200. Specifically, when people want to open the cover 200, they can insert their hands into the gap and apply force to separate it, so that the cleaning staff can open the cover 200 to collect garbage.
