Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of trash can technology, and specifically to a trash can. Background Technology

[0002] The importance of sorting and storing waste in trash cans is paramount. Current trash cans typically have multiple fixed compartments for separating different types of waste. However, when using these types of trash cans for sorting and storing waste, the fixed shape of the compartments often presents challenges. Firstly, when some types of waste are disposed of in large quantities while others are disposed of in small quantities, it's difficult to effectively utilize the trash can's storage space. Secondly, when different compartments contain waste with different odor control requirements, it's inconvenient to sort and address the odors accordingly. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a trash can that can effectively improve both the utilization of storage space and the odor removal effect, thereby enhancing the user experience of the trash can.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a trash can, comprising: a trash collection body, the trash collection body including multiple collection cavities, with movable walls disposed between adjacent collection cavities; a filtering device, the filtering device including multiple adjustable-size filter screen top plates, with one filter screen top plate disposed at the bottom of each collection cavity; a cavity driving device, each movable wall and each filter screen top plate being connected to the cavity driving device; a control module, the control module being electrically connected to the cavity driving device; and a trash detection module, the trash detection module being electrically connected to the control module; the trash detection module transmits detected trash information to the control module, and the control module controls the cavity driving device according to the trash information, thereby driving the movable wall and the filter screen top plate corresponding to a target collection cavity among the multiple collection cavities to adjust the capacity of the target collection cavity and the area of ​​the filter screen top plate corresponding to the target collection cavity in a coordinated manner.

[0005] In some embodiments, the filter top plate includes a plurality of sub-filter plates, which are arranged in an overlapping manner; the plurality of sub-filter plates move relative to each other under the drive of the cavity driving device.

[0006] In some embodiments, the cavity driving device includes a filter plate driving motor and a filter plate connecting assembly, the filter plate connecting assembly being connected to the plurality of sub-filter plates respectively.

[0007] In some embodiments, the cross-section of each of the receiving cavities is fan-shaped, and the plurality of receiving cavities form a cylinder; each of the sub-filter plates is fan-shaped, and the plurality of sub-filter plates are movably connected at the center point of the fan shape.

[0008] In some embodiments, the trash can further includes a lifting assembly for lifting the top plates of each of the filter screens.

[0009] In some embodiments, the trash can further includes a filter channel; when the filter top plate is lifted, the space below the filter top plate communicates with the filter channel to form a negative pressure filter channel.

[0010] In some embodiments, the waste detection module includes an inlet detection module and an in-cavity detection module. The inlet detection module is used to detect the waste information of the waste put into the waste bin, and the in-cavity detection module is used to detect the waste information of the waste in each of the collection cavities.

[0011] In some embodiments, the trash can further includes a main inlet and multiple sub-inlets, with an inlet switch provided between the main inlet and each of the sub-inlets, and each of the sub-inlets communicating with a storage cavity.

[0012] In some embodiments, the trash can further includes multiple disinfection devices, each of which corresponds to one of the collection chambers; each disinfection device is used to dispense disinfectant solution matching the type of trash in the corresponding collection chamber into the corresponding collection chamber.

[0013] In some embodiments, the cavity driving device includes a sidewall driving motor and a sidewall connecting assembly, the sidewall connecting assembly being connected to each of the movable walls respectively.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows for communication; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0022] See Figures 1 to 2 This utility model provides a trash can 100, including a trash collection body 110, a filter device 120, a cavity driving device 130, a control module 140, and a trash detection module 150.

[0023] The waste collection body 110 includes multiple collection chambers, with movable walls provided between adjacent collection chambers. For example, in one embodiment, such as... Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the garbage collection body 110 specifically includes four collection chambers: collection chamber 111, collection chamber 112, collection chamber 113, and collection chamber 114. Movable walls 115, 116, 117, and 118 are respectively provided between adjacent collection chambers. Different collection chambers can be used to collect different types of garbage. The number of collection chambers can be set according to needs, and this utility model does not specifically limit this.

[0024] The filtering device 120 includes multiple adjustable-size filter top plates, with one filter top plate disposed at the bottom of each of the receiving cavities. For example, in one embodiment, such as... Figure 1 and 2 As shown, filter screen top plates 121, 122, 123, and 124 are respectively installed at the bottom of the storage chambers 111, 112, 113, and 114. Filter holes are provided on the filter screen top plates, which can filter out waste liquid or waste gas in the corresponding storage chambers.

[0025] Each movable wall and each filter top plate 121 is connected to a cavity driving device 130, which drives each movable wall and each filter top plate. The cavity driving device 130 can drive the movable walls to move; for example, it can drive the movable wall 116 to rotate clockwise, thereby increasing the capacity of the receiving cavity 112 and decreasing the capacity of the receiving cavity 113. The cavity driving device 130 can also drive the filter top plates to adjust their area; for example, while the movable wall 116 rotates clockwise, it can drive the filter top plate 122 to increase its area to fit the bottom of the increased-capacity receiving cavity 112, and simultaneously drive the filter top plate 123 to decrease its area to fit the bottom of the decreased-capacity receiving cavity 113. Thus, the filtering function of the filter top plates for the receiving cavity can be maintained even as the capacity of the receiving cavity changes.

[0026] Furthermore, the control module 140 is electrically connected to the cavity driving device 130; the waste detection module 150 is electrically connected to the control module; the waste detection module 150 can transmit the waste information detected in the waste bin to the control module 140, and the control module 140 controls the cavity driving device 130 according to the waste information, and then drives the movable wall and filter screen top plate corresponding to the target collection cavity in multiple collection cavities through the cavity driving device 130, thereby adjusting the capacity of the target collection cavity and the area of ​​the filter screen top plate corresponding to the target collection cavity in a coordinated manner.

[0027] For example, the waste information detected by the waste detection module 150 may include the waste capacity in each collection compartment and images of the waste thrown into the waste bin. Based on the waste information, the control module 140 can determine the type of waste thrown in and whether the waste capacity in the corresponding collection compartment exceeds a predetermined capacity. If so, the collection compartment corresponding to that waste type is designated as the target collection compartment. The control module 140 then controls the cavity driving device 130 to drive the movable wall corresponding to the target collection compartment to increase its capacity and drives the filter top plate to adapt to the bottom of the increased-capacity target collection compartment.

[0028] Therefore, within the trash can, the trash detection module transmits the detected trash information to the control module. The control module then controls the cavity drive device based on this information, which in turn drives the movable walls and filter top plates corresponding to the target collection chambers in multiple collection chambers. Furthermore, the capacity of the target collection chamber can be adjusted by driving the movable walls according to the trash information, thus flexibly and effectively utilizing storage space as needed. Moreover, the size of the filter top plates at the bottom of each collection chamber is adjustable, changing the area of ​​the corresponding filter top plate according to the target collection chamber, ensuring that each filter top plate can effectively filter odor sources in its corresponding collection chamber regardless of its state. This effectively balances improving the utilization of the trash can's storage space and odor removal efficiency, enhancing the user experience.

[0029] Furthermore, each filter top plate may specifically include multiple sub-filter plates, which are stacked and moved relative to each other under the drive of the cavity driving device. The area of ​​the filter top plate can be changed by the relative movement of the multiple sub-filter plates of each filter top plate.

[0030] In one example, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, each receiving cavity has a fan-shaped cross-section, and multiple receiving cavities together form a cylinder. Each sub-filter plate is also fan-shaped. The multiple sub-filter plates on the top plate of the filter screen are movably connected at the center point of the fan shape, so that the multiple sub-filter plates can rotate relative to each other around the center point of the fan shape. It can be understood that the number and shape of the multiple sub-filter plates included in the top plate of the filter screen can be set to other numbers and shapes.

[0031] For example, the filter top plate 123 may include sub-filter plates 1231 and 1232, both of which are fan-shaped and are movably connected at the center point of the fan. The sub-filter plate 1231 is disposed above the sub-filter plate 1232 and the two are overlapped. Similarly, the filter top plate 124 may include sub-filter plates 1241 and 1242.

[0032] Furthermore, the cavity driving device may include a filter plate drive motor and a filter plate connecting assembly (not shown in the figure; the positions of the filter plate drive motor and the filter plate connecting assembly can be set according to actual conditions, and this utility model does not specifically limit them). The filter plate connecting assembly is connected to multiple sub-filter plates respectively, so that the filter plate drive motor can drive the multiple sub-filter plates to move relative to each other through the filter plate connecting assembly. The filter plate connecting assembly may consist of a gear assembly and a connecting rod, or may be implemented by a connecting rod alone.

[0033] In some embodiments, the cavity driving device 130 may further include a sidewall driving motor and a sidewall connecting assembly. The sidewall connecting assembly is connected to each movable wall, and the sidewall driving motor can drive each movable wall to move through the sidewall connecting assembly. In one embodiment, the cross-section of each storage cavity is fan-shaped, and multiple storage cavities together form a cylinder. The movable walls between the storage cavities are movably connected at the center of the cylinder. The sidewall driving motor can drive each movable wall to rotate around the center of the cylinder through the sidewall connecting assembly, thereby allowing the capacity of each storage cavity to be flexibly changed according to needs. For example, as... Figure 1 and 2 As shown, movable walls 115, 116, 117, and 118 between the storage cavities are movably connected at the center of the cylinder. The filter plate drive motor 131 is connected to the movable wall 118 through the side wall connection assembly 132, and the filter plate drive motor 131 is connected to the movable wall 116 through the side wall connection assembly 133.

[0034] In addition, the trash can may include a lifting assembly for lifting each of the filter top plates. Multiple lifting assemblies may be included, each capable of lifting a corresponding filter top plate. After the lifting assembly lifts the filter top plate, waste liquid in the collection chamber can be filtered down and discharged from the trash can through the waste liquid channel for waste liquid disposal.

[0035] Furthermore, the trash can also includes a filter channel. When the top plate of the filter screen is lifted, the space under the top plate of the filter screen connects with the filter channel to form a negative pressure filter channel. Through the negative pressure filter channel, the waste in the collection chamber can be blown out by negative pressure and the odor can be eliminated, thereby effectively eliminating odor.

[0036] In some embodiments, the waste detection module 150 may include an inlet detection module and an in-cavity detection module. The inlet detection module is used to detect waste information of waste placed into the waste bin, and the in-cavity detection module is used to detect waste information of waste inside each of the collection cavities. For example, as... Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the inlet detection module 151 can be located at the main inlet of the trash can, and the cavity detection module 152 can be located in the collection cavity 114. The inlet detection module 151 can be a camera that can detect images of trash being thrown into the trash can. The cavity detection module 152 can be a camera or other sensor that can detect the volume of trash in the collection cavity.

[0037] Furthermore, the trash can may also include a main inlet and multiple sub-inlets, with an inlet switch provided between the main inlet and each of the sub-inlets, and each of the sub-inlets being connected to a collection cavity. Thus, after the user puts trash into the main inlet, the trash can can identify the type of trash and put the trash into the corresponding collection cavity through the corresponding sub-inlet.

[0038] Furthermore, the trash can also includes multiple disinfection devices, each corresponding to one of the collection chambers; each disinfection device is used to dispense disinfectant solution matching the type of trash in the corresponding collection chamber. The disinfectant solution can disinfect the trash in the collection chamber, and the resulting waste liquid can be filtered by the lifting of the filter screen top plate.

The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the technical solution and core idea of ​​this utility model.
