Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste sorting technology, specifically to an automatic waste sorting device based on network information technology. Background Technology

[0002] Automatic waste sorting based on network information technology refers to the use of cameras to intelligently identify the types of waste and then automatically sort them. Large trash cans are mostly filled with bagged waste, which is inconvenient to separate into individual pieces. However, small trash cans set up on the roadside are more suitable for the application of intelligent sorting technology because people often put in individual small pieces of waste.

[0003] For example, three patent documents with patent publication numbers CN211282309U, CN110861852A, and CN111907987A disclose different automatic sorting trash cans. However, the trash cans have relatively small trash can openings, making it inconvenient to dispose of larger trash; their internal channels are complex, which can easily cause trash to get stuck; and covered trash cans require opening the lid first, making operation complicated, and they also have poor rain protection. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an automatic household waste sorting device based on network information technology, which overcomes the deficiencies in the prior art.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a technical solution: an automatic household waste sorting device based on network information technology, comprising a main housing and a camera, characterized in that: multiple sorting bins are arranged at the lower part of the main housing, and an identification tray is arranged at the upper part of the main housing. The identification tray is connected to the inside of the main housing by a motor. The identification tray is provided with an identification slot, which is used to put the waste to be identified. The identification tray is provided with at least one rotating door at the bottom of the identification slot.

[0006] A top cover is located on the top of the main housing, and a lifting controller is located on the side of the main housing. A lifting plate inside the lifting controller is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the top cover. A camera is rotatably connected to the bottom of the top cover. A baffle is located above the upper surface of the recognition tray on the main housing. A network module that wirelessly connects to the back-end terminal is also located inside the lifting controller.

[0007] Furthermore, a light-transmitting panel is provided inside the top cover, and the light-transmitting panel is made of a light-transmitting material, or the entire top cover is made of a light-transmitting material.

[0008] Furthermore, the height of the upper surface of the top cover is higher in the middle and lower around the edges. A water-blocking rib is provided on the top edge of the top cover, and at least one drain outlet is provided on the water-blocking rib. The drain outlet is located on the top cover in other positions besides the alignment identification slot and the lifting plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the identification tray is equipped with a drive structure for driving the rotating door to rotate, and each of the rotating doors is equipped with at least one water tank. The bottom of the end of the water tank near the outer side of the main shell is provided with a through hole. The inner wall of the sorting bin is provided with a vertical groove. When the rotating door is closed, the through hole is aligned with the corresponding vertical groove. The bottom surface of the water tank is inclined. The height of the end of the water tank near the through hole is lower than that of the end away from the through hole. The bottom of the vertical groove is connected to the sewage tank, which is located at the bottom of the main shell.

[0010] Furthermore, each of the aforementioned sorting bins is provided with a handle on its outer side.

[0011] Furthermore, the lifting plate is provided with two parallel vertical rails, and the vertical rails are provided with teeth. The lifting controller is provided with gears that mesh with the vertical rails to control the lifting of the top cover.

[0012] Furthermore, an inclined surface is provided in the identification groove near the central axis of the main housing.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the top cover is provided with a cable tray for passing through the cable connecting the camera.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. This application utilizes a liftable top cover design, an integrated structure for rotating doors and drainage, a linkage design between baffles and recognition trays, and network module integration and remote control. When a pedestrian carelessly throws trash into the recognition slot, resulting in the trash falling into an invalid area on the upper surface of the recognition tray, the camera identifies the trash as being in the invalid area. The recognition tray then rotates and pushes the trash into the recognition slot through the baffle, thus maximizing convenience for pedestrians.

[0016] 2. This application sets up an identification tray and a sorting bin on the top and bottom of the main shell, respectively. When garbage is put into the identification slot, the garbage is intelligently identified by a camera at the bottom of the top cover. By rotating the identification tray, the identification slot is aligned with the sorting bin corresponding to the type of garbage. The rotating door is opened to let the garbage fall into the corresponding sorting bin, thus completing the automatic garbage sorting. At the same time, by setting the camera on the liftable top cover, the top cover can not only protect the garbage bin from rain, but also be raised when the size of the garbage needs to be put in is too large, so as to increase the size of the garbage that the identification slot can hold. In addition, raising the top cover can also facilitate the adjustment of the camera's viewing angle.

[0017] 3. This application sets a baffle on the main shell. When people carelessly throw the trash into the invalid area on the upper surface of the identification tray, the camera identifies the trash in the invalid area, and the identification tray rotates to push the trash into the identification slot through the baffle, so as to maximize the convenience for people to use.

Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the present invention. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of the present invention are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "setting," "connection," "fixing," "screw connection," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal connection of two components or the interaction between two components. Unless otherwise expressly limited, those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0036] The names of the messages or information exchanged between the multiple devices in this embodiment of the invention are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of these messages or information. Example 1

[0037] like Figure 1-9 As shown, an automatic household waste sorting device based on network information technology includes a main housing 1 and a camera 5. Multiple sorting bins 2 are arranged at the lower part of the main housing 1, and an identification tray 3 is arranged at the upper part of the main housing 1. The identification tray 3 is connected to the inside of the main housing 1 by a motor. The identification tray 3 is provided with an identification slot 31, which is used to put the waste to be identified. The identification tray 3 is provided with at least one rotating door 32 at the bottom of the identification slot 31.

[0038] A top cover 4 is provided on the top of the main housing 1. A lifting controller 12 is provided on the side of the main housing 1. A lifting plate 41 is slidably connected to the bottom of the side of the top cover 4 and connected to the lifting controller 12. A camera 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the top cover 4. A baffle 11 is provided above the upper surface of the recognition tray 3 on the main housing 1.

[0039] By mounting the camera 5 on the liftable and movable top cover 4, the top cover 4 can not only protect the trash can from rain, but also be raised when the size of the trash is too large, increasing the capacity of the identification slot 31. The raised top cover 4 also facilitates the adjustment of the camera angle of the camera 5. Furthermore, when people carelessly throw the trash can into the bin without it entering the identification slot 31, that is, when the trash falls into the invalid area 30 on the upper surface of the identification tray 3, the camera 5 identifies that the trash is in the invalid area 30, and the identification tray 3 rotates to push the trash into the identification slot 31 through the baffle 11, thus maximizing the convenience for users.

[0040] Each of the sorting bins 2 is equipped with a handle 21 on the outside, which allows personnel to pull the sorting bin 2 horizontally to one side using the handle 21, making it easier for personnel to process the garbage inside and replace the garbage bags.

[0041] The top cover 4 has a cable tray 42 on its bottom surface for passing through the cable connecting the camera 5. The cable is electrically connected to the lifting controller 12. In addition, the lifting plate 41 has two parallel vertical rails 411 with teeth inside. The lifting controller 12 has gears that mesh with the vertical rails 411 to control the lifting of the top cover 4, providing support and guidance, and making the lifting of the top cover 4 more stable. Example 2

[0042] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is obtained by further describing the technical features of the top cover 4 based on the first embodiment. The other technical features are the same as those in the first embodiment. The similarities will not be repeated here. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that a light-transmitting plate 44 is provided inside the top cover 4. The light-transmitting plate 44 is made of a light-transmitting material, or the top cover 4 as a whole is made of a light-transmitting material.

[0043] In this embodiment, since a top cover 4 is provided above the main housing 1, the top cover 4 blocks outdoor light, resulting in poor lighting conditions inside the recognition slot 31. In addition to providing supplementary lighting inside the trash can or inside the camera 5, a light-transmitting plate 44 can also be provided on the top cover 4. Alternatively, the top cover 4 can be designed as a light-transmitting material. The material of the top cover 4 is preferably colorless and transparent to avoid colored light affecting the intelligent recognition of the camera 5. Example 3

[0044] like Figure 3As shown, this embodiment is obtained by further describing the technical features of the top cover 4 based on the second embodiment. The remaining technical features are the same as those in the second embodiment, and the similarities will not be repeated here. The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is that the height of the upper surface of the top cover 4 is higher in the middle and lower around the edges; the top edge of the top cover 4 is provided with a water-blocking rib 43, and the water-blocking rib 43 is provided with at least one drain outlet 431. The drain outlet 431 is located on the top cover 4 at other positions except for the alignment identification groove 31 and the lifting plate 41.

[0045] In this embodiment, the height of the upper surface of the top cover 4 is higher in the middle and lower around the edges, which facilitates the drainage of rainwater from the top cover 4. Since rainwater will drip down from the edge of the top cover 4 when it rains, it will get wet when people put their hands into the identification slot 31 to dispose of garbage. Therefore, water-blocking ribs 43 are set and drainage outlets are set in specific positions to prevent the water drained from the top cover 4 from falling into the disposal position, and to prevent rainwater from dripping into the lifting controller 12 and causing short circuits or rust. Example 4

[0046] like Figure 7-9 As shown, this embodiment is based on embodiment three, with the addition of technical features such as a water trough 321 for further description. The remaining technical features are the same as those in embodiment three, and the similarities will not be repeated here. The difference between this embodiment and embodiment three is that: the identification tray 3 is provided with a drive structure for driving the rotating door 32 to rotate; at least one water trough 321 is provided on any rotating door 32, and a through hole 322 is provided at the bottom of the end of the water trough 321 near the outside of the main housing 1; a vertical groove 22 is provided on the inner wall of the sorting bin 2; when the rotating door 32 is closed, the through hole 322 is aligned with the corresponding vertical groove 22; the bottom surface of the water trough 321 is inclined, and the height of the end of the water trough 321 near the through hole 322 is lower than the end away from the through hole 322; the bottom of the vertical groove 22 is connected to the sewage tank, and the sewage tank is located at the bottom of the main housing 1.

[0047] In this embodiment, because the identification groove 31 is relatively deep, or when people directly throw garbage into the identification groove 31, the water in the unsealed beverage bottle will flow directly into the identification groove 31. The liquid is guided by the water trough 321 and the vertical groove 22, and the sewage will also flow into the sorting bin 2, so as to achieve the separation of liquid and garbage as much as possible, and alleviate the problem that sewage mixed with garbage in the garbage bin for a long time will easily produce odor and germs. The sewage tank is equipped with a drain outlet (not shown in the figure), and the sewage is discharged by controlling the valve on the drain outlet.

[0048] The driving structure can be a pull rod and a slider, etc. The rotating door 32 is hinged to the pull rod. By sliding the slider that is hinged to the pull rod, the rotating door 32 moves to open the bottom of the identification slot 31, so that the garbage in the identification slot 31 can fall into the corresponding garbage can. Example 5

[0049] like Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is obtained by adding technical features such as inclined surface 311 on the basis of embodiment five. The other technical features are the same as those in embodiment five. The similarities will not be repeated here. The difference between this embodiment and embodiment five is that an inclined surface 311 is provided in the identification groove 31 near the central axis of the main housing 1.

[0050] In this embodiment, the inclined surface 311 enlarges the opening of the recognition slot 31, allowing the camera 5 to better capture images of the items within the recognition slot 31.

[0051] This application also includes a network module, enabling wireless connection between the application and a backend terminal. The network module, such as a Wi-Fi or 4G / 5G module, is integrated into the device to provide wireless transmission capabilities. Remote monitoring and control are achieved through the network module, which uploads images and receives recognition results from a remote server, providing a visual representation of actions equivalent to pressing a selection button. Users or managers can remotely monitor and control the device using a mobile app or web interface, such as viewing waste capacity, sorting status, or sending commands to control the lifting of the top cover or the rotation of the recognition tray. Data transmission and sharing are facilitated by transmitting the device's operating data, waste recognition results, and sorting records to a cloud server or data center via the network.

[0052] Daily waste disposal: Under normal circumstances, the top cover 4 is closed. After the top cover 4 is raised through the control panel on the device, the user throws the waste into the identification slot 31 of the identification tray 3. The camera 5 automatically identifies the type of waste. According to the identification result, the control system drives the identification tray 3 to rotate so that the identification slot 31 is aligned with the corresponding sorting bin 2. The rotating door 32 opens and the waste falls into the sorting bin 2, completing the automatic sorting.

[0053] Disposing of bulky waste: When the user places bulky waste into the identification slot 31 of the identification tray 3; if the waste is too large, the top cover 4 is raised further through the control panel to increase the size of the waste disposal opening; the user puts the waste into the identification slot 31, and the camera 5 identifies and performs the sorting operation.

[0054] Waste collection and cleaning: Cleaning staff can send commands via a mobile app or control panel on the device to raise the top cover 4, facilitating the cleaning of the tray 3 and the rotating door 32; cleaning staff can pull the sorting bin 2 outward horizontally by the handle, open the sorting bin 2, fill the garbage bags and remove them; after cleaning is completed, the top cover 4 automatically lowers and returns to its initial position.

[0055] Rain protection: Since the top cover 4 is kept closed under normal conditions, it prevents rainwater from entering the device when it rains; the water-blocking ribs 43 and the drain outlet 431 on the top cover 4 guide the rainwater out, preventing rainwater from dripping into the garbage disposal port or the lifting controller 12.

[0056] Wastewater treatment: When wastewater flows into the identification tank 31, the wastewater is discharged into the wastewater tank through the water tank 321 and the through hole 322 on the rotating door 32; the wastewater tank is emptied by cleaning personnel regularly to keep the inside of the device clean and hygienic.

[0057] Equipment maintenance and monitoring: Maintenance personnel can remotely monitor the operating status of the device via a mobile APP, such as the working status of camera 5, the status of lifting controller 12, and the capacity of sorting bin 2. When the device malfunctions or requires maintenance, the APP will send a notification to the maintenance personnel, who can then carry out repairs in a timely manner. Maintenance personnel can also remotely update the device's firmware via the network module to optimize performance and fix vulnerabilities.

[0058] Note that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Many other equivalent embodiments may be included without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
