Intelligent Garbage Bin with Integrated Sterilization Spray and Water Filtration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing garbage bins are inefficient in sterilization, deodorization, and carbon-releasing reduction, as they either lack comprehensive effects or complicate the manufacturing process with cumbersome designs.
Innovation Solution
An intelligent garbage bin with a solution storage chamber and spray head, combined with a molding groove and inner bucket, sprays a sterilization and deodorization solution to kill microorganisms and reduce odor and carbon emissions, while the molding groove automatically filters out water and supports the weight of garbage, and an intelligent control system for timed spraying.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a liquid storage cavity is arranged under a movable plate to separate accommodating cavity and liquid storage cavity, then sterilization and deodorization effects are improved, but manufacturing difficulty increases and operation becomes inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid storage cavity is integrated directly into the bottom of the bin body as a built-in structure, merging the storage function with the bin body itself. This eliminates the need for separate movable plates and complex assembly, reducing manufacturing difficulty while maintaining the sterilization and deodorization functionality through the spray head system.
Solution Approach 2:
The bin body bottom is designed to serve multiple functions: it acts as both the structural base and the liquid storage cavity housing. The spray head system is positioned to simultaneously achieve sterilization, deodorization, and carbon-releasing reduction, making the system multi-functional without requiring separate components for each function.
2Reliability
If a liquid storage cavity is arranged under a movable plate to separate accommodating cavity and liquid storage cavity, then sterilization and deodorization effects are improved, but operation convenience deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The liquid storage cavity is merged with the bin body structure, eliminating movable plates that require manual manipulation. Users simply place garbage in the bin and the system operates automatically, greatly improving operation convenience while maintaining sterilization effectiveness through the integrated spray system.
Solution Approach 2:
The system is designed to operate automatically without requiring user intervention to move plates or adjust components. The spray head automatically dispenses sterilization liquid from the integrated storage cavity, and the bin structure itself supports the garbage weight, making the system self-servicing and user-friendly.
3Object-generated harmful factors
If only water filtering is implemented in garbage bag, then some odor reduction is achieved, but sterilization and microorganism inhibition efficiencies remain low
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the parameter of the liquid used from simple water to a specialized sterilization and deodorization solution. This solution contains active ingredients that kill microorganisms and neutralize odors, transforming the chemical composition to achieve both odor reduction and effective sterilization simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
The spray head system uses hydraulic principles to distribute the sterilization solution evenly over the garbage surface. This ensures comprehensive coverage and contact between the solution and microorganisms, achieving effective sterilization and deodorization that simple filtration cannot provide.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Effectively inhibits microbial fermentation, decay, and mildew, reducing odor and greenhouse gas emissions with automatic and quantitative application of the solution, enhancing user convenience and manufacturing simplicity.
Implementation Method 1
the spray head is used to spray a sterilization and deodorization solution stored in the solution storage chamber towards the garbage
Implementation Method 2
most of water in the garbage can be automatically filtered out by gravity continuously
Implementation Method 3
bin bottom (inclined) plates on both sides of the molding groove can support the weight of the garbage in the bin body

AI summary
An intelligent sterilization, deodorization and carbon-releasing reduction garbage bin includes a bin body, a bin cover disposed on the bin body, a solution storage chamber and a spray head. The spray head is disposed on a wall of the bin body or on the bin cover. By disposing an inner bucket and/or a garbage bag each with a liquid storage cavity, a molding groove, the liquid storage chamber, the spray head and an intelligent control device, the solution storage chamber being for storing a sterilization and deodorization solution, and the spray head being for spraying the solution stored in the liquid storage chamber, which can filter out water in garbage uninterruptedly and spray a special liquid with effects of sterilization, deodorization and carbon-releasing reduction into the garbage as needed and in an automatic timed and quantitative manner, thereby comprehensively playing multiple beneficial effects in sterilization, deodorization and carbon-releasing reduction.
