Description

Intelligent garbage can capable of visualizing garbage capacity

Technical Field

The invention relates to an intelligent garbage can capable of visualizing garbage capacity.

Background

Trash cans are common containers used to temporarily store trash. Various wastes are piled together and are in a closed space, so that bacteria and microorganisms are easy to rapidly propagate and grow. Therefore, the trash can often emits peculiar smell, has the possibility of spreading bacterial microorganisms, and is required to be sealed as much as possible and cleaned in time. However, the user cannot know the amount of the garbage in the barrel unless the barrel cover is opened, so that the user often forgets to dispose the garbage in time, the garbage is stored for a long time and is rotten and smells, peculiar smell is generated, or the user needs to open the barrel cover frequently to know the amount of the garbage, visual discomfort and olfactory discomfort are increased, and environmental sanitation is damaged.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to solve the problems and provides an intelligent garbage can with visual garbage capacity, which can automatically display the amount of garbage outside the garbage can and avoid forgetting to process the garbage.

The technical scheme adopted by the invention for solving the technical problems is as follows:

an intelligent garbage can for visualizing garbage capacity comprises

-a receptacle for holding waste;

-a lid provided at an upper portion of the tub for opening or closing the tub;

-a capacity indicating light disposed on top of said tub cover, said capacity indicating light being configured as a three-color light including green, yellow and red;

-a tact switch disposed between the bottom of said lid and the upper edge of said barrel for detecting whether said lid is open;

-a distance detection module arranged at a lower portion of said lid for measuring the height of the waste inside said tub;

-a controller disposed inside the tub cover, the controller being connected to the volume indicator, the tact switch and the distance detection module, the controller detecting the height of the garbage through the distance detection module when the tact switch is closed, the volume indicator showing green if the echo distance of the ultrasonic wave exceeds half of the height of the tub; when the echo distance of the ultrasonic waves is less than half and more than one third of the height of the barrel body, the capacity indicating lamp displays yellow; and when the echo distance of the ultrasonic wave is less than one third of the height of the barrel body, the capacity indicating lamp displays red.

Preferably, the distance detection module is an ultrasonic distance measurement module.

The invention has the following beneficial effects: the garbage can has the advantages that the amount of garbage in the garbage can is automatically detected and displayed outside, so that a direct user can read the garbage can conveniently, and the situation that the garbage can cover is opened or the garbage is forgotten to be treated is avoided.

Drawings

Fig. 1 is a schematic view of the intelligent trash can of the present invention.

Detailed Description

The invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

referring to fig. 1, an intelligent trash can for visualizing trash capacity includes

-a receptacle 1 for receiving waste;

a tub cover 2 provided at an upper portion of the tub 1 for opening or closing the tub 1;

a capacity indicating lamp 3 provided on the top of the tub cover 2, the capacity indicating lamp 3 being a three-color lamp including green, yellow and red; the green color represents that the quantity of garbage is small, the yellow color represents that the quantity of garbage exceeds half of the capacity of the bucket body 1, and the yellow color represents that the quantity of garbage approaches or is filled in the bucket body 1;

a tact switch 5 disposed between the bottom of the tub cover 2 and the upper edge of the tub 1 for detecting whether the tub cover 2 is opened; when the barrel cover 2 is closed, the tact switch 5 is closed, and an effective signal is output;

a distance detecting module 4 disposed at a lower portion of the tub cover 2 for measuring a height of the garbage inside the tub 1;

preferably, the distance detection module 4 is set as an ultrasonic ranging module, after the ultrasonic ranging module sends an ultrasonic signal, the garbage inside the barrel body 1 reflects the ultrasonic signal, and the garbage distance from the barrel cover 2 can be calculated according to the flight time, so that the amount of the garbage is obtained.

A controller disposed inside the tub cover 2, the controller being connected to the volume indicator 3, the tact switch 5 and the distance detection module 4, the controller detecting the height of the garbage through the distance detection module 4 when the tact switch 5 is closed, and the volume indicator 3 showing green if the echo distance of the ultrasonic wave exceeds half of the height of the tub 1; when the echo distance of the ultrasonic wave is less than half and more than one third of the height of the barrel body 1, the capacity indicating lamp 3 displays yellow; when the echo distance of the ultrasonic wave is less than one third of the height of the barrel body 1, the capacity indicating lamp 3 displays red.

After the embodiment of the invention is implemented, a user can obtain the garbage condition in the barrel body 1 without opening the barrel cover 2, so as to determine when to process the garbage and avoid frequently opening the barrel cover 2.

Claims (2)

1. With visual intelligent garbage bin of rubbish capacity, its characterized in that: comprises that

-a receptacle for holding waste;
