Water shield 21 covers the inlet and outlet, protecting the clothes inside the recycling bin 1 from rainwater erosion. Through monitoring by camera 7 and weighing by weigher 13, accurate management of the clothes put in can be achieved, helping managers understand the quantity and weight of the clothes, and providing data support for subsequent classification, processing, and sales.

[0031] This utility model also provides a security door for a recycling bin as described above, comprising: a security door body 8 adapted to the discharge port of the recycling bin, the security door body 8 including a reinforcing steel plate 81, a door body 82 and a thickening layer 83, the door body 82 being installed on one side of the reinforcing steel plate 81, and the thickening layer 83 being disposed on the door body 82; an electric telescopic rod 14 fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the recycling bin body 1; a connecting plate 15 bolted to the top of the security door body 8, the connecting plate 15 being fixedly connected to the electric telescopic rod 14; and a monitoring mechanism disposed between the security door body 8 and the recycling bin body 1 for monitoring the security door body 8.

[0032] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to open the security door body 8, the staff enters the staff-specific operation interface through a specific entrance of the control screen 2, and then controls the electric telescopic rod 14 through the control system to extend and retract the electric telescopic rod 14. Through the connecting plate 15, the security door body 8 slides open along the set track. When it is necessary to close the security door body 8, the control system will also send a command to the electric telescopic rod 14, and the electric telescopic rod 14 will extend and retract in the opposite direction, sliding the security door body 8 down to the closed state. At the same time, the monitoring mechanism will monitor the opening and closing status and abnormal conditions of the security door in real time to ensure the safety and reliability of the security door body 8. Through the combined design of the reinforced steel plate 81, door body 82 and thickened layer 83, the overall strength and pry resistance of the security door body 8 are improved, effectively preventing illegal intrusion and theft. By using the electric telescopic rod 14 as the driving source, the automatic opening and closing of the security door body 8 is realized, improving the convenience and efficiency of operation. The monitoring mechanism can issue an alarm in time when the security door body 8 is illegally opened or damaged, improving security.

[0033] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the monitoring mechanism includes: a pressure sensor 20 installed inside the door body 82 for monitoring the pressure of the anti-theft door body 8; an alarm 16 mounted on the door frame for alerting thieves; and an alarm module 17 installed on one side of the control box 12.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the security door body 8 is illegally pried or impacted, the pressure sensor 20 detects abnormal pressure changes and transmits the signal to the alarm module 17. The alarm module 17 determines whether the alarm 16 needs to be triggered according to preset alarm rules. If it is determined that the alarm needs to be triggered, the alarm 16 will sound an alarm to alert the thief and attract the attention of those around. At the same time, the alarm module 17 can also send alarm information to the remote monitoring center or management personnel so that they can understand the situation in time and take countermeasures. By monitoring the pressure changes of the security door body 8 in real time through the pressure sensor 20, abnormal situations can be detected in time, improving the security of the security door body 8. At the same time, the alarm module 17 can send alarm information to the remote monitoring center or management personnel to achieve remote monitoring and timely response, improving management efficiency.

[0035] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, an arc-shaped plate 18 is fixedly installed on one side of the anti-theft door body 8, the arc-shaped plate 18 slides in contact with the discharge port, and a protective pad 19 is installed at the bottom of the arc-shaped plate 18.

[0036] In this embodiment, when the anti-theft door body 8 needs to be closed, the arc plate 18 will slide along the edge of the discharge port until it is in close contact with the bottom of the discharge port. During this process, the protective pad 19 will play a buffering role, reducing the impact force between the arc plate 18 and the discharge port. When the anti-theft door body 8 is completely closed, a tight sealing line will be formed between the arc plate 18 and the discharge port, effectively preventing rainwater from entering the interior of the recycling bin body 1. The sliding contact design between the arc plate 18 and the discharge port, as well as the cooperative use of the protective pad 19, can significantly improve the sealing performance of the anti-theft door body 8 and prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the recycling bin body 1.

[0037] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, a guide rod 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the recycling bin body 1, and a guide block 23 is slidably installed on the guide rod 22, and the guide block 23 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 15.

[0038] In this embodiment, when the electric telescopic rod 14 drives the security door body 8 to open and close, the connecting plate 15 will drive the guide block 23 to slide along the guide rod 22. The guide rod 22 provides a stable guiding effect for the opening and closing of the security door body 8, ensuring that the security door body 8 will not deviate from the predetermined track during the opening and closing process. At the same time, the sliding cooperation between the guide block 23 and the guide rod 22 can reduce the friction and resistance when the security door body 8 opens and closes, making the opening and closing action smoother and easier.

[0039] In a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a positioning seat 24 is fixedly installed on one side of the anti-theft door body 8, and an electric push rod 25 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the recycling bin body 1. A positioning block 26 for limiting the positioning seat 24 is fixedly installed on the output rod of the electric push rod 25.

[0040] In this embodiment, when the security door body 8 is closed, the electric push rod 25 drives the positioning block 26 to move towards the positioning seat 24. When the positioning block 26 contacts and fits tightly with the positioning seat 24, the electric push rod 25 stops working. At this time, the security door body 8 is stably limited to the closed state. When it is necessary to open the security door body 8, the electric push rod 25 drives the positioning block 26 to move in the opposite direction, so that it separates from the positioning seat 24, thereby allowing the security door body 8 to be opened. Through the cooperation of the positioning seat 24 and the positioning block 26, the security door body 8 can be stably limited in the closed state, which improves the stability and security of the security door body 8.

[0041] In summary, compared with related technologies, this recycling bin, through the combination of intelligent control and mechanical structure, achieves beneficial effects such as wind and rain protection, theft prevention, and ease of use, making the recycling and utilization of old clothes more efficient, convenient, and reliable.
