Description
1 TARIFF DEPOSIT REFUND MACHINE Technical Area 5 The invention involves the collection of plastic, aluminum, metal, cardboard, and glass packaging waste at the source and separating these wastes without causing contamination increases raw material recovery. It is related to the deposit return machine. The invention specifically concerns breaking glass, breaking or compressing plastic, breaking metal / aluminum or 10 By offering processes such as compression and curtain drop together, it prevents label-related counterfeiting. This relates to the deposit refund machine. State of the Art Today, packaging that has completed its function can be recycled without mixing with garbage and waste. To ensure this, they are manually collected and placed in containers located in different areas. They are then moved to designated areas for manual sorting. One of the most fundamental problems in the process of collecting waste for recycling is the different The separation process is quite difficult due to the mixing of products from different types. The problem is that it becomes more difficult. In addition, the system in question is fundamentally based on human labor and visual 20 A discrimination possibility based on perception ability is offered, and this discrimination contains errors. This can lead to divisions. To simplify the recycling process by automating it in the current state of the art. Different types and features of deposit return machines and systems have been developed in its name. 25 One of these is the deposit refund described in patent application number TR 2021 / 021783. It is a system. The system handles deposit-based waste such as beverage packaging waste, as well as non-deposit-based and / or recyclable waste. Detection of non-recyclable waste, deposit-free and / or recyclable waste. increasing the effectiveness of preventing non-recyclable waste from being thrown into the deposit return machine, By performing the processes of drilling and crushing waste materials through a single mechanism, machine 30 efficient use of space and increasing waste material handling capacity It provides. In the utility model application numbered TR 2022 / 000891, plastics, glass and aluminum, etc. The deposit fee collected from the consumer when selling packaged products is returned to the consumer. 35 enabling it to be retrieved, detecting the barcode on the product and initiating the recycling process. A deposit return machine that returns a product when an unidentified waste product is discarded. 2 It is explained that the machine in question, thanks to its crushing system, processes waste. It reduces them to small volumes and sends them to the waste disposal site. With the rapid advancement of technology, both mechanically and in terms of software, the current deposit refund system is becoming increasingly difficult. This has rendered the systems unable to meet the needs. In particular, elements related to counterfeiting are addressed by sensor 5. Simply implementing basic functions with these technologies is not enough. Artificial intelligence is used... In systems / machines, proper authorization of waste packaging and product approval. Their structures have shortcomings. Product introduction and field deployments are quite slow, This creates gaps in commissioning and national deposit return systems. Packaging The labels on them often don't completely break down and therefore are not national 10 This creates a risk of fraud in deposit return systems. A known technical issue encountered... Another problem is that waste glass packaging can be accidentally broken or fall softly. The problem is that preventing microcracks cannot be done with the same machines / systems. This type of... Requests create additional costs. Consequently, due to the aforementioned drawbacks and shortcomings, the relevant technical... The need for innovation in this field has emerged. Purpose of the Invention The present invention meets the aforementioned requirements and eliminates all disadvantages. It relates to a deposit refund machine that removes and brings some additional advantages. The purpose of the invention is to process plastic, aluminum, metal, cardboard, and glass packaging waste at the source. raw material recovery by collecting and separating these wastes without causing contamination.
