Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of environmental protection equipment technology, specifically to a waste sorting bin with voice guidance function. Background Technology
[0002] Current waste sorting bins have significant shortcomings: most are manually operated, making them difficult for the elderly, children, and those with mobility issues to use; they lack automatic opening and closing mechanisms, failing to achieve intelligent response. Furthermore, the bins lack compression devices, resulting in loose waste accumulation, reducing storage efficiency and easily generating odors, severely hindering the convenience of waste disposal and the utilization of bin space. These problems urgently need to be addressed to improve user experience and environmental efficiency.
[0003] Chinese patent document CN212638675U discloses a waste sorting bin with voice guidance. It includes a sorting bin body and multiple waste bins. The sorting bin body has multiple placement compartments, and the front of the sorting bin body is equipped with multiple indicator lights, multiple infrared sensors, a microphone array, and a speaker. The sorting bin body also includes a control system, which includes a control processing module, a voice recognition module, and a data storage module. Compared to existing technologies, this invention, by incorporating the voice recognition module, allows users to directly ask the sorting bin body about the type of waste by speaking. The indicator lights and speaker then guide users to dispose of the corresponding type of waste into the appropriate waste bin, thus providing guidance for waste sorting, replacing manual guidance, and reducing the waste of human resources.
[0004] Although the device in the aforementioned document can classify and store garbage and provides voice prompts, its structure is relatively simple. It cannot automatically open and close the lid, and manual opening and closing by the user is not hygienic. Furthermore, the device is not energy-efficient and lacks a garbage compression device, which prevents the full utilization of storage space and reduces the device's practical value.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] This utility model provides a garbage sorting bin with voice guidance. The device is equipped with an automatic opening and closing mechanism, allowing users to dispose of garbage without manually touching the bin door under voice guidance. This is especially convenient in situations where hands are busy or hygiene requirements are high. The automatic opening and closing of the bin door reduces direct contact between the user and the garbage bin, improving comfort and satisfaction during use. Manually opening and closing the bin door may result in hand contact with the door, potentially spreading bacteria and viruses. A first motor drives a screw to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, causing a slider to move the front cover along the thread direction, thus automatically raising and lowering the lid for opening and closing. The automatic opening and closing of the garbage bin lid is achieved through an infrared sensor and voice guidance. An inclined chute facilitates the automatic sliding of garbage into the bin, and side baffles facilitate the separate storage of garbage.
[0020] This invention provides a waste sorting bin with voice guidance. The device is equipped with an energy-saving system, and the adjustable photovoltaic panels can flexibly adjust according to the sun's position and light intensity. Throughout the day, the sun's altitude and direction constantly change. By adjusting the angle of the photovoltaic panels to maintain a perpendicular or near-perpendicular position to the sunlight, the device can maximize the absorption of solar radiation and improve the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels. The storage device stores the electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic panels. When there is sufficient sunlight, the photovoltaic panels convert solar energy into electrical energy and store it in the storage device. When there is insufficient sunlight, the storage device can provide stable power support for the various functional modules of the waste sorting bin. By utilizing solar energy, a renewable energy source, the waste sorting bin can reduce its reliance on traditional grid electricity. This not only reduces electricity procurement costs but also reduces pressure on the power grid, aligning with the development concept of energy conservation and emission reduction. The photovoltaic panels absorb solar energy, convert heat energy into electrical energy, and store it in the storage device to provide power for the sorting bin. This utilizes natural resources to reduce the consumption of the equipment's limited energy. Additionally, a second motor drives the photovoltaic panels, which are fixed to a connecting shaft, to rotate, allowing them to adjust their tilt angle within a certain range to maintain a suitable incident angle with sunlight and maximize their functional efficiency.
[0021] This utility model provides a garbage sorting bin with voice guidance. The device is equipped with a compression device that compresses the garbage, reducing the gaps between the garbage and allowing the same volume of garbage bin to hold more garbage. For the garbage sorting bin manager, reducing the frequency of garbage bin replacement means reducing the number of garbage collection and transportation times, thereby reducing manpower, material resources, and transportation costs. Loose garbage contains many gaps, which facilitate the dissipation of odor gases. After compression by the compression device, the gaps between the garbage are reduced, and the dissipation channels of odor gases are narrowed, thereby reducing the spread of garbage odor and improving the environmental quality around the garbage disposal point. The extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod drives the pressure plate to rise and fall, thereby compressing the garbage in the bin. The sliding rod and spring can buffer the impact force when the pressure plate hits the bottom, reducing the wear and tear on the equipment structure. The pressure level is controlled by a pressure sensor, and the bottom of the pressure plate is equipped with a serrated plate that can cut the garbage, reducing its individual volume and further improving the compression effect.

[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a waste sorting bin with voice guidance function includes a sorting bin 1. An automatic opening and closing device 2 is fixedly connected inside the sorting bin 1. Under the guidance of voice, users can complete the waste disposal without manually touching the bin door. Especially in situations where hands are busy or hygiene requirements are high, the automatic opening and closing door provides great convenience. The automatic opening and closing door reduces the direct contact between the user and the waste bin, improving the comfort and satisfaction during use. Manually opening and closing the bin door may cause the hands to come into contact with the bin door, thereby spreading bacteria and viruses. An indicator light 3 is fixedly connected to the front middle of the automatic opening and closing device 2. An infrared sensor 4 is fixedly installed below the indicator light 3. A speaker 5 is fixedly installed below the infrared sensor 4. An energy-saving device 6 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sorting bin 1. The adjustable-angle photovoltaic panel can flexibly adjust according to the position of the sun and the intensity of the light. Throughout the day, the sun's altitude and position constantly change. By adjusting the angle of the photovoltaic panels to maintain a perpendicular or near-perpendicular position to the sunlight, the system can maximize the absorption of solar radiation and improve the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic panels. The storage device stores the electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic panels. When there is sufficient sunlight, the photovoltaic panels convert solar energy into electrical energy and store it in the storage device. When there is insufficient sunlight, the storage device can provide stable power support for the various functional modules of the waste sorting bin. By utilizing solar energy, a renewable energy source, the waste sorting bin can reduce its reliance on traditional grid electricity. This not only reduces electricity procurement costs but also reduces the pressure on the power grid, aligning with the development concept of energy conservation and emission reduction. The upper part of the inner wall of sorting bin 1 is fixed. The bin is connected to a compression device 7, which can compress the garbage, reduce the gaps between the garbage, and allow the same volume of garbage bin to hold more garbage. For the garbage sorting bin manager, reducing the frequency of garbage bin replacement means reducing the number of garbage collection and transportation, thereby reducing manpower, material resources and transportation costs. Loose garbage contains many gaps, which are conducive to the emission of odor gases. After being compressed by the compression device, the gaps between the garbage are reduced, the emission channels of odor gases are narrowed, thereby reducing the spread of garbage odor and improving the environmental quality around the garbage disposal point. The rear left side of the sorting bin 1 is movably connected to a rotating handle 8, and the rear cover plate 9 is movably connected to the rear of the sorting bin 1.
[0030] The automatic opening and closing device 2 includes a fixing plate 21, which is fixedly installed at the front end of the sorting box 1;
[0031] The energy-saving device 6 includes an energy storage device 65, the fixed end of which is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sorting box 1;
[0032] The compression device 7 includes an electric telescopic rod 71, the fixed end of which is fixedly connected to the upper part of the inner wall of the sorting box 1.
[0033] A limit hole is provided on the rear left side of the sorting box 1, and a plug rod is movably connected to one end of the rotating handle 8.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, a sliding groove 22 is provided on the upper end of the fixed plate 21. A first motor 23 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding groove 22. A screw 24 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 23. A slider 25 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the screw 24. A front cover plate 26 is fixedly connected to one end of the slider 25. An inclined groove plate 27 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the fixed plate 21. Two side baffles 28 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the inclined groove plate 27. A trash can 29 is movably connected between the two side baffles 28. The screw 24 is driven by the first motor 23 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, causing the slider 25 to move the front cover plate 26 along the thread direction, thereby automatically lifting and opening / closing. The trash can lid is automatically opened and closed by sensing the infrared sensor 4 and with the help of voice guidance. The inclined groove plate 27 facilitates the automatic sliding of trash into the trash can 29. The side baffles 28 facilitate the separate storage of trash in the trash can 29.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, a display 66 is fixedly connected to the front end of the storage device 65, and brackets 61 are fixedly connected to both sides of the storage device 65. A protective plate 62 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the bracket 61, and a second motor 63 is fixedly connected to the upper part of one side of the bracket 61. A photovoltaic panel 64 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 63. The photovoltaic panel 64 absorbs solar energy, converts heat energy into electrical energy and stores it in the storage device 65 to provide power for the sorting box 1. This utilizes natural resources to reduce the consumption of the equipment's limited energy. In addition, the second motor 63 drives the photovoltaic panel 64, which is fixed to the connecting shaft, to rotate, so that its tilt angle can be adjusted within a certain range to maintain a suitable incident angle with sunlight and maximize its function.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, a connecting plate 72 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the electric telescopic rod 71. A bolt 73 is movably connected to one side of the connecting plate 72. A pressure sensor 74 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting plate 72. Sliding rods 75 are slidably connected to the four corners of the connecting plate 72. Springs 76 are slidably connected to the outer wall of the sliding rods 75. A pressure plate 77 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the springs 76. A serrated plate 78 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the pressure plate 77. The extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 71 drives the pressure plate 77 to rise and fall, thereby compressing the garbage in the garbage bin. By setting the sliding rods 75 and the springs 76, the impact force when the pressure plate 77 touches the bottom can be buffered, reducing the wear and tear on the equipment structure. The pressure sensor 74 controls the pressure level. The serrated plate 78 at the bottom of the pressure plate 77 can cut the garbage, reduce its individual volume, and further improve the compression effect.
[0037] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Through the automatic opening and closing device 2, the first motor 23 drives the screw 24 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, causing the slider 25 to move the front cover 26 along the thread direction, thereby automatically raising and lowering the opening and closing mechanism. The automatic opening and closing of the garbage bin lid is achieved through an infrared sensor 4 and voice guidance. An inclined chute 27 facilitates the automatic sliding of garbage into the garbage bin 29. Side baffles 28 facilitate the separate storage of garbage in the garbage bin 29. The energy-saving device 6 utilizes a photovoltaic panel 64 to absorb solar energy, converting heat energy into electrical energy and storing it in an energy storage device 65 to provide power for the sorting bin 1. This utilizes natural resources to reduce the consumption of limited energy resources in the equipment. In addition, a second motor 63 drives the photovoltaic panel 64, which is fixed to the connecting shaft, to rotate, so that its tilt angle can be adjusted within a certain range to maintain a suitable incident angle with sunlight and maximize its function. Through the compression device 7, the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 71 drives the pressure plate 77 to rise and fall, thereby compressing the garbage in the garbage bin. The sliding rod 75 and spring 76 can buffer the impact force when the pressure plate 77 hits the bottom, reducing the wear and tear on the equipment structure. The pressure level is controlled by the pressure sensor 74. The bottom of the pressure plate 77 is equipped with a serrated plate 78 to cut the garbage, reduce its individual volume, and further improve the compression effect.
