[0018] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.

[0019] Example

[0020] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a self-service recycling station for waste small household appliances includes a recycling bin 1. A horizontally arranged support plate 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the recycling bin 1. A connecting plate 4 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the recycling bin 1 above the support plate 3. A cavity for accommodating household appliances is formed between the connecting plate 4 and the support plate 3. When recycling household appliances, small household appliances can be placed in the cavity between the support plate 3 and the connecting plate 4, and the small household appliances are supported by the support plate 3 below.

[0021] The top of the recycling bin 1 is integrally formed with a rain shelter 2. The rain shelter 2 extends outward to the outer side of the top of the recycling bin 1. The rain shelter 2 is set up to block rain and prevent rainwater from entering the cavity during rainy days and flowing into the recycling bin 1 from both sides of the cavity, which would cause the small household appliances recycled in the recycling bin 1 to be soaked and damaged.

[0022] A movable push plate 5 is slidably connected between one end of the connecting plate 4 and the support plate 3. The movable push plate 5 has a rectangular plate structure. The two ends of the movable push plate 5 are in sliding contact with the adjacent sides of the support plate 3 and the connecting plate 4, respectively. The movable push plate 5 is used to push the home appliance placed on the support plate 3 to move. A buffer rubber pad is glued to the side of the movable push plate 5 away from the driving device. The buffer rubber pad is set to provide a buffering effect and try to avoid the movable push plate 5 from hitting the outer shell of the home appliance during the movement, which would cause damage to the home appliance.

[0023] The recycling bin 1 is equipped with a drive device for driving the movable push plate 5 to slide along the length of the support plate 3. The drive device is an electric telescopic rod 6 installed in the recycling bin 1. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 6 is fixed to the center of the movable push plate 5, and the other end of the electric telescopic rod 6 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the recycling bin 1. The movable push plate 5 is moved by the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 6, thereby adjusting the position of the movable push plate 5.

[0024] A flap 8 is rotatably connected to the end of the connecting plate 4 away from the movable push plate 5. The top of the flap 8 is connected to the connecting plate 4 via a hinge, and the bottom of the flap 8 overlaps with the end of the support plate 3. When the movable push plate 5 pushes the appliance to move along the support plate 3 toward the flap 8, it will push the flap 8 to flip, so that the appliance can fall into the recycling bin 1.

[0025] The bottom wall of the recycling box 1 is fixedly provided with a shock pad 10, and a buffer structure for buffering the household appliance is arranged below the flap 8. The buffer structure is a guide plate 9 arranged on the shock pad 10. The guide plate 9 is in an arc-shaped structure, one end of the guide plate 9 is fixed to the side wall of the recycling box 1, and the other end of the guide plate 9 is fixed to the upper surface of the shock pad 10. When the household appliance is pushed by the movable push plate 5 to be separated from the support plate 3, the household appliance falls on the guide plate 9 and slowly slides along the guide plate 9 to the shock pad 10.

[0026] An outlet is formed in the outer wall of the recycling box 1 away from the buffer structure, and a box door 7 with a lock is arranged at the outlet. When the recycling box 1 contains a large number of household appliances, the box door 7 can be opened to concentrate on the processing of the household appliances in the recycling box 1.

[0027] A maintenance opening 12 is formed in the outer wall of the recycling box 1 outside the electric telescopic rod 6. The maintenance opening 12 penetrates through the outer wall of the recycling box 1 and is connected to the inside of the recycling box 1. The maintenance opening 12 is arranged to facilitate the user to maintain the electric telescopic rod 6. When the electric telescopic rod 6 is damaged, the electric telescopic rod 6 can be repaired or replaced without disassembling the recycling box 1, which is convenient for the user to use.

[0028] A touch control panel 11 is further arranged on the outer wall of the recycling box 1. The driving device is electrically connected to the touch control panel 11. The touch control panel 11 is connected to a remote control terminal through a wireless network. When recycling the household appliance, the customer can input the name, model, age, and whether it can be normally used of the household appliance through the touch control panel 11, and transmit the information to the remote control terminal through the touch control panel 11. After receiving the information, the recycling personnel remotely quotes and pays the recycling fee.

[0029] It should be noted that the self-service recycling station for waste small household appliances is used. The recycling box 1 is placed in the community. The community residents can place the small household appliances on the support plate 3 when using, and then input the type, model, age, and whether it can be normally used of the small household appliance through the touch control panel 11, and remotely transmit the information to the recycling personnel through the touch control panel 11. After receiving the information, the recycling personnel remotely quotes and pays the fee. When confirming the transaction, the recycling personnel controls the electric telescopic rod 6 to extend through the touch control panel 11, pushes the movable push plate 5 to extrude the small household appliance to move in the direction of the flap 8 until the flap 8 is opened. At this time, the small household appliance slides along the guide plate 9 under the action of gravity and falls on the shock pad 10 arranged on the bottom wall of the recycling box 1, thereby realizing the self-service recycling of the small household appliance and being convenient for the user to use.

[0030] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation manners of the present application, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as a limitation on the patent scope of the present application. It should be noted that, for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
