Description
MACHINE FOR RECOVERING RECYCLABLE WASTE
Technical field The present invention relates to a machine for recovering recyclable waste.
Background art Undoubtedly, one of the problems that is currently most strongly felt relates to achieving a substantial reduction in waste generation by finding new solutions in the packaging and distribution of products which are obviously meant to become garbage.
Different strategies are currently available which are aimed at reducing the «garbage product~~ in terms of produced amount and at increasing the recycling and/or reuse of the waste, which is accordingly considered more as a resource than as waste.
This second strategy, in particular, is evidently very advantageous, since ideally it eliminates the concept of 15 waste, replacing it for all purposes with the concept of a semifinished product which can be reused unlimited times according to different and targeted transformation cycles which can be entirely artificial or partially artificial and partly natural.
However, while many studies confirm the validity of the strategy of waste recycling, on the other hand they show that such recycling usually has a critical step which prevents its complete fulfillment and development.
This critical step, in particular, is waste recovery.
In other words, it has been shown that users, after purchasing and using a product, have not yet acquired the mental attitude and education to conceive the waste that WO 99!43579 PCT/EP99/01157 originates from said product as a valuable item to be returned to the transformation cycle.
It is true that currently there are already strategies which facilitate sorted and classified waste collection and which are substantially constituted by sorted-collection wheeled bins, which however are not always appreciated by users since they force said users to perform a sorting operation which is often anything but simple and in any case work-intensive.
Disclosure of the invention to The aim of the present invention is to provide a machine for recovering recyclable waste which allows simple disposal of the waste for the user, giving an incentive to adopt the solution of recycling rather than conventional generic disposal.
Within the scope of this aim, an object of the present invention is to provide a machine which is simple to use and whose operation can be grasped even by users having no technical skills.
Another object of the present invention is to provide 2o a machine which is particularly safe and reliable, can be easily integrated in any environment or can be managed easily by public administrations and by private management companies or authorities.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a machine which is capable of integrating many functions so as to cover the entire spectrum of the recovery of recyclable waste.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a machine which can be manufactured with conventional technologies and equipment.
This aim, these objects and others which will become apparent hereinafter are achieved by a machine for recovering recyclable waste, characterized in that it 5 comprises, in a containment chassis: a waste receiving and compaction unit, which is associated with one or more waste collection devices; a waste data acquisition unit; a user interface unit; a novelty item dispenser unit to certify that the waste has been introduced; one or more sensors l0 associated with devices for the electronic processing of signals and programs.

This allows perfect integration with the standardized commercial identification of the different products and of their containers.
The novelty item dispenser unit 16 is constituted in l0 particular by two devices: a first one, designated by the reference numeral 36, is a device for dispensing a ticket or receipt that certifies that the waste has been introduced, while a second one, generally designated by the reference numeral 37, is constituted by a free novelty item i5 dispenser which is meant to give the user an incentive to perform recovery.
The dispenser 37 can operate by means of suitable sensors of the data acquisition unit 14 which are capable of checking the value of the object introduced in the 2o machine, determining the type of reward to be given.
It is also possible to provide a magnetic card read/write device which manages loyalty programs by loading the introduced amounts of ~~garbage product~~ on the magnetic badges of the users.
25 In alternative embodiments which also provide for the disposal of dangerous products, such as medicines and/or drained batteries, the dispenser 37 can be configured to dispense, when the waste is introduced in the machine, suitable empty containers for said products.
In more sophisticated embodiments it is possible to provide sensors which determine the quality, composition and value of the object inserted; such sensors are in any case all already commercially available.
