Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of solid waste recycling, specifically relating to weighing devices. Background Technology
[0002] The maintenance of mechanical equipment often involves the recycling and disposal of solid waste to prevent accidental leakage into the environment and causing pollution. Solid waste includes used batteries and scrap parts.
[0003] To achieve standardized recycling of solid waste, equipment repair shops often need to collect and gather the solid waste in a unified manner before having it collected and processed by a recycling company. In existing technologies, this is often achieved by using container bins to hold the solid waste. These bins are typically round or rectangular.
[0004] However, in existing technologies, since the inlet of the container is usually located at the top, when solid recyclables need to be loaded into the container, the operator must manually lift the solid recyclables to the opening of the container before loading them in. Similarly, when the solid recyclables need to be removed from the container, they must be lifted back to the opening. Clearly, this process requires repeatedly lifting the solid recyclables to a considerable height, increasing the operator's workload. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides a recycling container, the purpose of which is to solve the problem of inconvenience in loading and unloading solid recyclables in existing containers.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a recycling container, including a base, the base having an internal cavity with a trapezoidal or triangular cross-section, the cavity being used to hold solid recyclables, and an opening for taking out and putting in the upper end of the cavity, the opening being oriented diagonally upwards.
[0007] In this design, a loading / unloading port is provided at the upper end of the receiving cavity for loading and unloading solid recyclables. Furthermore, since the loading / unloading port is angled upwards, users only need to move the solid recyclables to the height of the loading / unloading port when loading or unloading. Compared to existing technologies, this eliminates the need to move the solid recyclables to the top, reducing the user's workload.
[0008] Preferably, in order to close the receiving cavity, the solution further includes a cover, which is disposed on the base and is used to open or close the loading and unloading port.
[0009] This solution uses a cover to open or close the loading / unloading port. When the port is open, solid recyclables can be retrieved or unloaded; when the port is closed, the solid recyclables are confined inside the containment cavity, preventing leakage.
[0010] Preferably, in order to reduce interference when the cover rotates, the cover and the base are rotatably connected, and the connection between the cover and the base is located at the top of the base. The opening is opened by rotating the cover upwards.
[0011] This design opens the receiving cavity by rotating the cover upwards. Compared to rotating it to the left, right, or forwards, rotating it upwards causes less interference to the cover.
[0012] Preferably, in order to accommodate more solid recyclables, the cover of this solution has an internal cavity that communicates with the loading and unloading port.
[0013] Because this design incorporates a cavity, when too much solid recyclable material is loaded, the top of the material can be pushed into the cavity. Once the solid recyclable material is pushed into the cavity, the cavity and the receiving chamber can work together to accommodate the solid recyclable material, thus allowing for the holding of even more solid recyclable material.
[0014] or;
[0015] The cover is a cover plate. The cover plate closes the opening for taking out and putting in the food, and it is also less expensive.
[0016] Preferably, to prevent the cover from being opened arbitrarily, this solution also includes a lock, which is disposed between the cover and the base, and is used to lock the cover and close the receiving cavity.
[0017] This solution uses a lock to lock the cover, sealing the containment cavity. Solid recyclables are contained within the sealed cavity, preventing loss and leakage.
[0018] In order to determine the weight of solid recyclables, a second aspect of this utility model discloses a weighing device, including the above-mentioned recycling container and weighing module, wherein the weighing module is disposed at the bottom of the recycling container.
[0019] This solution contains solid recyclables in a recycling container, and then weighs the solid recyclables using a weighing module located at the bottom of the recycling container, ultimately obtaining the weight data of the solid recyclables.
[0020] Preferably, in order to reduce the number of weighing modules used and thus reduce costs, the recycling container and the weighing module in this solution are detachable.
[0021] This solution allows for the separation of the recycling containers and the weighing module. Therefore, multiple recycling containers can be fitted to a single weighing module, eliminating the need for multiple weighing modules and reducing costs.
[0022] Preferably, in order to keep the recycling container stable on top of the weighing module, the weighing module of this solution is equipped with a receiving tray, which is located on top of the weighing module, and the recycling container is housed inside the receiving tray.
[0023] This design incorporates a receiving tray at the top of the weighing module, into which the recycling container is then housed. The receiving tray serves to limit the movement of the recycling container, ensuring its stability at the top of the weighing module.
[0024] Alternatively, in order to keep the recycling container stable on top of the weighing module, the bottom of the recycling container is provided with a positioning groove, and the top of the weighing module can be accommodated inside the positioning groove.
[0025] Alternatively, a positioning groove can be installed at the bottom of the recycling container, with the weighing module installed in conjunction with the positioning groove. The positioning groove can limit the position of the weighing module, ensuring the recycling container remains stable on top of the weighing module.
[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In this solution, a loading and unloading port is provided at the upper end of the receiving cavity for loading and unloading solid recyclables. Furthermore, since the loading and unloading port is positioned diagonally upwards, when users need to load or unload solid recyclables, they only need to move the solid recyclables to the height of the loading and unloading port. Compared to existing technologies, it is not necessary to move the solid recyclables to the top, thus reducing the user's workload. Attached Figure Description

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.
[0035] It should be noted that all actions involving the acquisition of signals, information, or data in this application are carried out in compliance with the relevant data protection laws and policies of the country where the application is located, and with the authorization granted by the owner of the relevant device.
[0036] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "inner" and "outer" are defined based on the contours of the corresponding components. Terms such as "first" and "second" used in this disclosure are for distinguishing one element from another and do not imply sequence or importance.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] The basics are as follows: Figure 1 As shown, a recycling container is primarily used for the unified containment and recycling of solid recyclables. Solid recyclables include, but are not limited to, waste batteries, discarded parts, and waste oil containers.
[0039] The recycling container in this embodiment specifically includes a base 1, a cover 2, and a lock. The base 1 is made of metal, and the base 1 can be trapezoidal or triangular in shape, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown. The base 1 has an internal cavity for containing solid recyclables. The cross-section of the cavity can be trapezoidal or triangular, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown. Solid recyclables can be stacked and placed inside the receiving cavity. The upper end of the base 1 is equipped with a loading and unloading port, which is used by the user to load solid recyclables into the receiving cavity for storage. The loading and unloading port is rectangular and is specifically positioned diagonally upwards.
[0040] In this embodiment, users can retrieve and place solid recyclables from the retrieval port. Compared to the prior art, where solid recyclables must be retrieved from the top of the container, retrieving and placing solid recyclables from the retrieval port reduces the retrieval height, thereby reducing the user's workload.
[0041] Since some solid recyclables often retain waste liquid, to avoid a large amount of waste liquid remaining inside the containment cavity, a drain hole (not shown in the figure) can be constructed at the bottom of the base 1 in this embodiment. Several drain holes are provided, specifically arranged in a rectangular or circular array. The drain holes allow residual liquid inside the containment cavity to be discharged to the outside.
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the cover 2 in this embodiment is made of metal. The cover 2 can be rotatably connected to the base 1 via a rotating structure such as a pivot or hinge. When the cover 2 rotates, it can open and close the receiving compartment to meet the needs of taking out and putting in solid recyclables. The cover 2 has an internal cavity, and this cavity is in communication with the receiving port.
[0043] For example, in one application scenario: when there is a large amount of solid recyclable material inside the receiving cavity, the solid recyclable material can accumulate at the pick-up / drop-off port and protrude from there. The solid recyclable material protruding from the pick-up / drop-off port can be placed back into the cavity, thereby accommodating more solid recyclable material.
[0044] It should be noted that, in addition to the structure described above, in some other embodiments of this disclosure, the cover 2 can be directly set as a plate, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the plate-shaped cover 2 can be directly fastened to the opening, thereby sealing the opening.
[0045] To minimize interference to the cover 2, in this embodiment, the connection between the cover 2 and the base 1 is positioned at the top of the base 1. The cover 2 rotates upward to open the receiving cavity, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown. By setting the cover 2 to open by rotating it upwards, compared to other opening methods, such as rotating it downwards, to the left, or to the right, the cover 2 is less likely to be interfered with, which is conducive to the normal opening of the cover 2.
[0046] To seal the receiving cavity and prevent the theft of solid recyclables inside, this embodiment of the present disclosure also includes a lock (not shown in the figure) on the base 1. The lock is preferably an electronic lock. The lock can lock the cover 2, thereby keeping the receiving cavity in a sealed state.
[0047] To classify the solid recyclables inside the receiving cavity, a partition (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the receiving cavity in this embodiment. Several partitions are provided, the specific number depending on the needs. The partitions are vertical and parallel to the two side walls of the receiving cavity. The partitions divide the inside of the receiving cavity into sections, each section capable of holding different solid recyclables. In this embodiment, the partitions can be movably installed via sliding grooves. In practice, sliding grooves can be provided on the inner wall of the receiving cavity, and sliders can be provided on the partitions. The sliders are installed within the sliding grooves. When the partitions slide along the sliding grooves, the position of the partitions changes, thereby changing the size of the sections to ensure that the size of the sections is adapted to the size of the solid recyclables.
[0048] Example 2
[0049] This disclosure provides a weighing device, such as... Figure 5 As shown, its purpose is to determine the weight of solid recyclables, so that users can determine the total amount of solid recyclables.
[0050] The weighing device in this embodiment includes the recycling container and weighing module 3 as described in Embodiment 1. The weighing module 3 can specifically be a pan scale or other weighing device as used in the prior art. The recycling container is located on top of the weighing module 3. When the recycling container contains solid recyclables, it can weigh the solid recyclables to determine the total amount of recyclables.
[0051] In this embodiment, the recycling container and the weighing module 3 are preferably detachable. In practice, the recycling container can be placed directly on top of the weighing module 3. When the recycling container and the weighing module 3 are detachable, the recycling container can obviously be used alone to hold solid recyclables and move them, making it more practical. Furthermore, multiple recycling containers can be adapted to the weighing module 3, reducing the number of weighing modules required and lowering costs.
[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, when the recycling container is placed on top of the weighing module 3, a receiving tray 4 is also provided on top of the recycling container to prevent it from sliding and falling. The receiving tray 4 can be installed by welding or by configuring fasteners, and can be circular or rectangular. When the recycling container is placed on top of the weighing module 3, it is restrained by the receiving tray 4, preventing it from sliding off. In addition, when liquid remains on the solid recyclable material, the liquid can flow into the receiving tray 4, thereby solving the problem of liquid leakage.
[0053] Of course, such as Figure 6As shown, in some other embodiments, to prevent the recycling container from sliding, a positioning groove can be provided at the bottom of the recycling container. The positioning groove can be a rectangular groove or a circular groove. When the recycling container is placed on top of the weighing module 3, the top of the weighing module 3 can be embedded in the positioning groove and constrained by the positioning groove. The positioning groove restricts the sliding of the recycling container, making the recycling container more stable on the weighing module 3.
[0054] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model, and common knowledge regarding specific structures and characteristics is not elaborated upon here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the structure of this utility model, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. These modifications will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application shall be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
