JP 2018-81339 A

By the way, it is not always necessary to take out the garbage when the garbage is not accumulated so much on the garbage collection day. However, in the notification system of Patent Literature 1, regardless of whether or not garbage is accumulated, users are uniformly notified that garbage is to be taken out on the garbage collection day. Therefore, even if there is not much garbage accumulated, that is, even if there is no need to take out the trash, the user receives a notice to take out the trash and ends up performing useless work such as checking the status of the trash. .

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a notification system capable of improving the user's convenience by notifying the user to take out the trash only when it is necessary to take out the trash. This is the main purpose.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a notification system of a first invention is a notification system for notifying a user living in a building to take out the garbage on a predetermined garbage collection day in the building. , a dust amount detection means for detecting the amount of dust contained in the dust storage part, and the amount of dust detected by the dust amount detection means on the dust collection day is predetermined. and a dust amount determining means for determining whether or not the amount of dust is equal to or larger than a predetermined amount, and when the dust amount determining means determines that the amount of dust is equal to or larger than the predetermined amount, the user is notified of the garbage removal. and a notification means for taking out the garbage.

According to the present invention, on the garbage collection day, it is determined whether or not the amount of garbage contained in the garbage container is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount. If so, a garbage disposal notification is issued to prompt the user to dispose of the garbage. In this case, it is possible to notify the user of taking out the garbage only when the amount of garbage accumulated in the garbage container is sufficient for taking out the garbage. As a result, it is possible to prevent the user from having to waste time and effort in confirming the state of the dust due to the fact that the dust is not collected even though the dust is not accumulated in the dust container. Therefore, according to such a configuration, the user's convenience can be improved by notifying the user of the need to take out the trash only when the user needs to take out the trash.

A notification system according to a second invention is the notification system according to the first invention, wherein the garbage collection date is set for each type of garbage in the building, and a plurality of the garbage storage units are provided for each kind of garbage, The dust amount detection means detects the amount of dust contained in each of the dust containing sections. It is determined whether or not the amount of garbage detected by the garbage amount detection means is equal to or greater than the predetermined amount on the garbage collection day corresponding to the type of the garbage disposal notification means. It is characterized in that, when it is determined by the dust amount determining means that the amount of dust is equal to or greater than the predetermined amount, the dust removal notification prompting the user to dispose of the dust is performed.

According to the present invention, it is determined for each type of trash whether or not the amount of trash is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount on the day of trash collection corresponding to the type of trash. Then, when the amount of trash is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount, that is, when the trash needs to be taken out, a trash-out notification prompting the user to take out the trash is issued. As a result, it is possible to notify the user to take out the trash for each type of trash only when it is necessary to take out the trash.

A notification system according to a third aspect of the invention is characterized in that, in the first or second aspect of the invention, it further comprises advance notification means for notifying the user to collect the garbage in the garbage container on the day before the garbage collection day. .

According to the present invention, the user is notified to collect the garbage in the garbage container the day before the garbage collection day. As a result, the user can be urged to collect the garbage in the building in advance in the garbage container on the day before the garbage collection day. Therefore, it is possible to avoid an operation such as collecting garbage in the garbage container in a hurry on the day of garbage collection.

A notification system according to a fourth aspect of the invention is a notification system according to any one of the first to third aspects of the invention, which is provided near the doorway of the building, includes a notification unit for notifying the user, and and a going-out determining means for determining that the user is about to go out, wherein the notifying means for putting out the trash instructs the notifying section to issue the notifying that the user has put out the trash when the going-out determining means determines that the user is about to go out. Characterized by

By the way, the trash is often taken out while the user is going to work or school. In this respect, according to the present invention, since the notification of taking out the trash is sent at the timing when the user leaves the house, the user who takes out the trash can be notified at an appropriate timing. As a result, it is possible to further improve user convenience.

A notification system according to a fifth aspect of the present invention is characterized in that, in the fourth aspect, after the user is notified of the garbage disposal by the garbage disposal notification means, the user requests the user to take out the garbage based on the detection result of the garbage amount detection means. Garbage removal determination means is provided for determining whether or not garbage has been taken out, and when the garbage removal determination means determines that the garbage has not been taken out, the out-of-home determination means informs the user of the garbage removal notification means. It is characterized in that, when it is determined that the user goes out, the notification of taking out the garbage is performed again.

According to the present invention, after the user is notified of the garbage disposal, it is determined whether or not the user has taken out the garbage according to the notification. Then, if the result of the determination is that the user has not taken out the trash, the notice of taking out the trash is given again at the timing when another user goes out. In this case, since the notification of taking out the trash is repeated until any user takes out the trash, it is possible to reliably prevent forgetting to take out the trash.

A notification system according to a sixth aspect of the present invention is, in any one of the first to fifth aspects of the invention, based on the detection result of the garbage amount detection means, after the user is notified of the garbage removal by the garbage removal notification means, a garbage disposal determination means for determining whether or not the user has taken out the dust; changing means for changing the predetermined amount based on the amount of dust.

By the way, if the user has not taken out the trash even though the user has been notified to take out the trash, there is a possibility that the user has determined that it is not necessary to take out the trash. That is, if the amount of dust contained in the dust container is large, it may have been determined that it is not necessary to take out the dust yet. Therefore, in the present invention, focusing on this point, if the user does not take out the trash even though a notice of taking out the trash has been issued, based on the amount of trash stored in the trash storage unit He is trying to change the predetermined amount used as a criterion for determining whether or not to issue a notice of delivery. In this case, for example, it is conceivable to change the predetermined amount to the same amount as the amount of dust contained in the dust container. According to such a configuration, the predetermined amount is automatically changed according to the user's feeling, so that it is possible to perform the garbage disposal notification suitable for the user.

A notification system according to a seventh aspect of the invention is, in any one of the first to sixth aspects, based on the detection result of the garbage amount detection means, the garbage from the garbage container on a day before the garbage collection day. dust removal determination means for determining whether or not the dust has been taken out; and change means for changing the predetermined amount to be smaller when the dust removal determination means determines that the dust has been taken out from the dust container. It is characterized by having

By the way, if the garbage storage unit is filled with garbage (for example, full) on the day before the garbage collection day, take out the accumulated garbage from the garbage storage unit (for example, together with the garbage bag) and put it in another container. It is conceivable to store it in a place. Therefore, in the present invention, in view of this point, if the garbage is taken out from the garbage storage unit on the day before the garbage collection date, it is assumed that the garbage has accumulated in the garbage storage unit earlier than originally assumed. The predetermined amount is set to be small. As a result, it is possible to prevent garbage from accumulating in the garbage container before the garbage collection day.

A notification system according to an eighth invention is, in any one of the first to seventh inventions, based on the detection result of the garbage amount detection means, the garbage from the garbage container on a day before the garbage collection day. Garbage removal determination means for determining whether or not the garbage has been taken out is provided, and the garbage removal notification means is provided even if the garbage amount determination means determines that the amount of garbage has not reached the predetermined amount on the garbage collection day. and, when it is determined by the dust removal determination means that the dust has been removed from the dust container, the dust removal notification is provided.

If garbage accumulates in the garbage container (e.g., full tank) on the day before the garbage collection day, remove the accumulated garbage from the garbage container and temporarily move it to another place until the garbage collection day. It is conceivable to store (that is, temporarily store). Here, in such a case, it is assumed that almost no trash is stored in the trash storage unit when the trash collection day comes. It is assumed that the garbage disposal notification will not be sent to

Therefore, in the present invention, in view of this point, if the garbage is taken out from the garbage storage unit on the day before the garbage collection day, the amount of garbage stored in the garbage storage unit on the garbage collection day is determined to be a certain amount. Even when the amount of garbage has not reached the fixed amount, a notice to take out the garbage is sent. As a result, when there is garbage taken out from the garbage storage section and temporarily placed, it is possible to prevent the temporarily placed garbage from being forgotten to be taken out.

An embodiment embodying the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a building. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the dust container.

As shown in FIG. 1, a building 10 such as a house is provided with an entrance 11 as an entrance. It is possible to enter and exit the building 10 through this doorway 11 . An entrance door 12 is provided at the entrance 11. - 特許庁The front door 12 opens and closes the front door 11 . Further, the entrance door 12 is provided with a locking portion (not shown). The front door 12 is locked and unlocked by operating the locking portion.

Garbage storage units 15 to 17 capable of accommodating garbage are provided on the outdoor side of the building 10 . In the building 10, the garbage storage units 15 to 17 make it possible to store the garbage generated in the building 10 outdoors. As shown in FIG. 2, a plurality (specifically, three) of the garbage storage units 15 to 17 are arranged along the outer wall of the building 10 . Each of these garbage storage units 15 to 17 is made of, for example, a box made of resin (so-called trash box).

Each of the dust storage units 15 to 17 is divided according to the type of dust to be stored. Among the dust storage units 15 to 17, the dust storage unit 15 stores the first dust, the dust storage unit 16 stores the second dust, and the dust storage unit 17 stores the third dust. It has become. For example, the first garbage is combustible garbage such as paper and garbage, the second garbage is plastic garbage, and the third garbage is non-burnable garbage. A garbage bag corresponding to the type of garbage is set in each of the garbage storage units 15 to 17, and the garbage is put into the set garbage bag.

In this building 10, garbage collection days are determined in advance for each type of garbage. On the garbage collection day, the user (specifically, the resident of the building 10) takes out the garbage to be taken out on the collection day from the garbage storage units 15 to 17 (for example, together with the garbage bag), It is to be carried (taken out) to the garbage storage area.

Here, the building 10 is provided with a notification system for notifying the user of garbage disposal in accordance with the garbage collection day. The notification system will be described below.

Dust amount sensors 21 to 23 are provided in the dust storage units 15 to 17, respectively. The dust amount sensor 21 is provided at the bottom of the dust container 15 and detects the weight of the first dust contained in the dust container 15 . The dust amount sensor 22 is provided at the bottom of the dust container 16 and detects the weight of the second dust contained in the dust container 16 . The dust amount sensor 23 is provided at the bottom of the dust container 17 and detects the weight of the third dust contained in the dust container 17 . The dust amount sensors 21 to 23 correspond to dust amount detection means.

Incidentally, in the present embodiment, weight sensors for detecting the weight of the dust are used as the dust amount sensors 21 to 23. Instead of this, a volumetric sensor for detecting the volume (volume) of the dust is used. good too.

As shown in FIG. 1, the building 10 is provided with an unlocking sensor 24 for detecting that the entrance door 12 has been unlocked (unlocked) from the indoor side. The unlock sensor 24 is provided, for example, at the entrance door 12 . When the user goes outside through the entrance 11, the user unlocks the entrance door 12 from the indoor side.

The building 10 is provided with a notification device 26 for notifying the user of garbage disposal. The notification device 26 is provided near the entrance 11, and is attached to the wall of the entrance, for example. The notification device 26 has a speaker and notifies the user of garbage disposal by voice. Note that the notification device 26 may be built in the entrance door 12 . Also, the notification device 26 corresponds to the notification unit.

Next, the electrical configuration of the notification system will be explained using FIG. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the electrical configuration of the notification system.

As shown in FIG. 3, the controller 20 performs notification processing regarding garbage disposal, and includes a well-known microcomputer having a CPU and the like. The controller 20 has a storage unit 20a and a communication unit 20b, and is provided on the wall surface of the building 10, for example.

The storage unit 20a stores garbage collection dates in the building 10. FIG. The storage unit 20a stores information on garbage collection dates for each type of garbage, that is, the garbage collection dates of the first garbage, the second garbage, and the third garbage are respectively stored. The garbage collection days for these various types of garbage are regularly visited (for example, every other week). In addition, the garbage collection days of various kinds of garbage are set to different days. The garbage collection date information stored in the storage unit 20a may be month and day information (for example, October 17th, October 24th, . ).

The communication unit 20b is capable of communicating (wireless communication) with a mobile device 28 carried by the user. The mobile device 28 is, for example, a mobile phone or smart phone.

Dust amount sensors 21 to 23 and an unlocking sensor 24 are connected to the controller 20 . The controller 20 is sequentially input with detection results from these sensors 21 to 24 .

A notification device 26 is connected to the controller 20 . The controller 20 outputs a notification signal to the notification device 26 based on the information on the garbage collection date stored in the storage unit 20a and the detection results from the sensors 21 to 24, and sends the notification signal to the notification device 26. give notice.

Next, the details of the notification process executed by the controller 20 will be described. The notification process is performed according to the garbage collection date for each garbage type. The notification process includes the previous day notification process performed on the day before the garbage collection day and the same day notification process performed on the day of the garbage collection day.

The controller 20 executes the day-ahead notification processing of the first garbage on the day before the garbage collection date of the first garbage, and executes the same-day notification processing of the first garbage on the garbage collection day of the first garbage. In this case, the controller 20 determines whether it is the day before the first garbage collection date based on the garbage collection date information stored in the storage unit 20a. , the day-ahead notification processing for the first garbage is executed. Further, the controller 20 determines whether or not the first garbage collection date has arrived based on the garbage collection date information stored in the storage unit 20a. The same-day notification processing for the first garbage is executed. Similarly, for the second and third garbage, the controller 20 executes the day-ahead notification processing on the day before the garbage collection day, and executes the same-day notification processing on the day of the garbage collection day.

Next, the day-ahead notification processing and the same-day notification processing for the first to third garbage will be described. The previous day notification processing for the first to third garbage has the same processing flow, and the same day notification processing for the first to third garbage has the same processing flow. Therefore, the day-ahead notification processing and the same-day notification processing for the first garbage will be described below, and the description of the day-ahead notification processing and the same-day notification processing for the second and third garbage will be omitted.

First, the day-ahead notification processing for the first garbage will be described. The previous day notification process is started, for example, at a predetermined time (for example, 15:00) on the day before the garbage collection day. In the day-ahead notification processing, the controller 20 notifies the portable device 28 carried by the user to collect the first garbage in the garbage container 15 in advance (corresponding to advance notification means). This prior notification is made, for example, by e-mail or voice information. Thereby, the user can be urged to collect the garbage in the building 10 in the garbage container 15 on the day before the garbage collection day.

Next, the same-day notification processing for the first garbage will be described. The same-day notification process is started, for example, when a predetermined time (for example, 6:00) on the day of garbage collection comes. The same-day notification processing will be described below with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 4, first, in step S11, based on the detection result from the dust amount sensor 21, whether the weight of the first dust contained in the dust container 15 is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount α. determines whether or not (corresponding to dust amount determination means). Here, the predetermined amount α is an index value for determining whether or not the first dust has accumulated to the extent necessary to take out the dust. Therefore, in this step, it is determined whether or not the weight of the first dust contained in the dust container 15 is equal to or greater than the predetermined amount α, and thus it is determined whether or not the first dust needs to be taken out. It is a thing. If the weight of the first dust has not reached the predetermined amount α, it is determined that there is no need to take out the dust, and this processing ends. On the other hand, if the weight of the first dust is equal to or greater than the predetermined amount α, it is determined that there is a need to take out the dust, and the process proceeds to step S12.

In step S<b>12 , based on the detection result from the unlocking sensor 24 , it is determined whether or not the user is going out through the front door 11 . If it is determined (detected) that the user is about to go out, the process proceeds to step S13. On the other hand, if it is not determined that the user is about to go out, the process of step S13 is repeated until it is determined that the user is about to go out.

In step S13, garbage disposal notification processing is executed. In this process, by outputting a notification signal to the notification device 26, the device 26 issues a garbage disposal notification to prompt the user to take out the garbage. In this case, since the garbage targeted for garbage disposal is the first garbage, the notification device 26 is made to issue a notification prompting the user to dispose of the first garbage. For example, a notification such as "Today is the first garbage collection day" is issued. As a result, the user can know that today is the day to take out the trash at the timing of going out. Therefore, the user can take out the first trash while going out.

In the following step S14, based on the detection result from the dust amount sensor 21, it is determined whether or not the first dust contained in the dust container 15 has been removed by the user (corresponding to dust removal determination means). ). That is, it is determined whether or not the user has taken out the trash in response to the notice of taking out the trash in step S13. If the trash has been taken out, the processing ends. On the other hand, if the garbage has not been taken out, the process returns to step S12, and the processes of steps S12 to S14 are performed again. As described above, in this process, the processes of steps S12 to S14 are repeatedly performed until the user takes out the garbage.

It should be noted that this process is terminated at a predetermined end time regardless of whether or not garbage is being taken out. This end time is set, for example, at the garbage collection time at which the garbage is collected by the garbage truck at the garbage storage area.

The above is the description of the same-day notification processing for the first garbage. As described above, the same-day notification processing for the second and third garbage follows the same flow as the same-day notification processing for the first garbage. Therefore, the determination process similar to that in step S11 is also performed in the same-day notification process for the second and third garbage. That is, in the same-day notification processing for the second trash, based on the detection result from the trash amount sensor 22, it is determined whether or not the weight of the second trash contained in the trash container 16 is equal to or greater than the predetermined amount β. In the same-day notification process for the third trash, based on the detection result from the trash amount sensor 23, the weight of the third trash stored in the trash storage unit 17 is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount γ. It is determined whether or not

Here, each predetermined amount α, β, γ of the first to third dust is individually set according to the type of dust. For example, in the case of the first garbage (burnable garbage), the predetermined amount α may be set small because the first garbage includes garbage such as kitchen garbage and other perishable garbage. In this case, even when a small amount of the first garbage is accumulated in the garbage container 15, the notification of taking out the garbage is issued, so that the user is made to take out the garbage before the first garbage rots and a foul odor is generated. becomes possible. Also, in the case of the second waste (plastic waste), since it does not rot, it is conceivable to set the predetermined amount β to a large value. In this case, after a certain amount of second dust (for example, about 80% of the capacity of the dust storage section 16) has accumulated in the dust storage section 16, the trash removal notification is performed, so the effect of saving the dust bag can be achieved. can be obtained.

According to the configuration of the present embodiment described in detail above, the following excellent effects are obtained.

On the garbage collection day, it is judged whether or not the amount (weight) of the garbage contained in the garbage containers 15 to 17 is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount. If so, a garbage disposal notification is issued to prompt the user to dispose of the garbage. In this case, it is possible to notify the user of taking out the trash only when the amount of trash accumulated in the trash storage units 15 to 17 is sufficient for taking out the trash. As a result, it is possible to prevent the user from needlessly confirming the state of the dust due to the fact that the dust removal notification is issued even though the dust storage units 15 to 17 are not so full of dust. . Therefore, according to such a configuration, the user's convenience can be improved by notifying the user of the need to take out the trash only when the user needs to take out the trash.

In addition, if the user is uniformly notified of the garbage disposal regardless of the amount of garbage contained in the garbage containers 15 to 17, the user's awareness of the garbage disposal notification may be lowered. In that case, it is assumed that the user does not take out the trash even though the user has been notified to take out the trash. In this regard, with the above-described configuration in which the user is notified of the garbage disposal when the amount of garbage exceeds a predetermined amount, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the user's awareness of the garbage disposal notification. can reliably take out the garbage.

For each type of garbage, it is determined whether or not the amount (weight) of the garbage is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount on the garbage collection day corresponding to the type of garbage. Then, when the amount of trash is equal to or greater than a predetermined amount, that is, when the trash needs to be taken out, a trash-out notification prompting the user to take out the trash is issued. As a result, it is possible to notify the user to take out the trash for each type of trash only when it is necessary to take out the trash.

On the day before the garbage collection day, the user is notified to collect the garbage in the garbage storage units 15-17. Thereby, the user can be urged to collect the garbage in the building 10 in the garbage storage units 15 to 17 in advance on the day before the garbage collection day. Therefore, it is possible to avoid an operation such as collecting garbage in the garbage storage units 15 to 17 in a hurry on the garbage collection day.

By the way, the trash is often taken out while the user is going to work or school. In this regard, in the above-described embodiment, when it is determined that the user is about to go out, that is, at the timing when the user goes out, the trash notification is issued. Therefore, it is possible to notify the user who takes out the garbage at an appropriate timing. As a result, it is possible to further improve user convenience.

After the notification of taking out the trash is given to the user, it is determined whether or not the user has taken out the trash in response to the notice. Then, if the result of the determination is that the user has not taken out the trash, the notice of taking out the trash is given again at the timing when another user goes out. In this case, since the notification of taking out the trash is repeated until any user takes out the trash, it is possible to reliably prevent forgetting to take out the trash.

The same-day notification process (FIG. 4) is started at a predetermined start time on the day of garbage collection, and ends at a predetermined end time. In this case, the garbage disposal notification process is performed only during a predetermined time period (that is, a time period from a predetermined start time to a predetermined end time) on the garbage collection day. Here, the predetermined time period is set, for example, to a time period (for example, 7:00 to 9:00) in which garbage can be taken out to the garbage storage area (garbage collection area). In this case, since the user is not notified to take out the trash after the predetermined time has passed, the user is notified to take out the trash even though the predetermined time has passed and the user cannot take out the trash. It is possible to avoid the trouble of wasting garbage disposal work.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and may be implemented as follows, for example.

(1) In the above embodiment, when the user is about to go out, the notification device 26 issues a garbage disposal notification, but the timing of the garbage disposal notification is not necessarily limited to this. For example, when a predetermined time comes on the garbage collection day, the notification of taking out the garbage may be made.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the notification device 26 is provided near the entrance 11 in the building 10, but the notification device 26 may be provided at a location other than the vicinity of the entrance 11. FIG. For example, it may be provided in a room such as a living room where users (residents) gather. Moreover, it is not always necessary to make the notification device 26 perform the notification of taking out the trash, and for example, the notification of the taking out the trash may be made to be sent to the portable device 28 carried by the user.

Further, the notice to take out the garbage does not necessarily have to be given by voice, and may be given by displaying a message prompting the user to take out the garbage on a display or the like.

(2) In the above embodiment, it is determined that the user is about to go outside through the entrance 11 based on the detection result from the unlocking sensor 24. is not limited to For example, a door opening/closing sensor that detects opening/closing of the entrance door 12 may be provided, and based on the detection result of the opening/closing sensor, it may be determined that the user is going out.

(3) In the above embodiment, the dust storage units 15 to 17 are provided outside the building 10, but the dust storage units 15 to 17 may be provided inside the building 10.

(4) For example, the predetermined amounts α, β, and γ of the first to third dust may be variably set based on the user's operation of the operation unit. It is conceivable that the amount of garbage generated may vary depending on the season or the like. In this regard, the above arrangement makes it possible to appropriately change the predetermined amounts α, β, γ in accordance with the season or the like.

(5) When the user inputs (sets) the area where the building 10 is located using the operation unit, the controller 20 externally (for example, an administrative agency) sets the garbage collection day in the area based on the input area. information terminal), and the acquired garbage collection date information may be stored in the storage unit 20a. In this case, the garbage collection date information can be stored (registered) in the storage unit 20a simply by inputting the name of the area.

(6) By the way, if the user does not take out the trash despite the fact that the user has been notified of taking out the trash (step S13), it is determined that the user does not need to take out the trash. could have done. That is, if the amount of dust contained in the dust container 15 is large, it may have been determined that it is not necessary to take out the dust yet. Therefore, in view of such a point, when it is determined that the user has not taken out the dust (when a NO determination is made in step S14), the controller 20 detects the first dust detected by the dust amount sensor 21. The predetermined amount α (predetermined amount α in step S11), which is the criterion for determining whether or not to issue the garbage disposal notification, may be changed (corresponding to the changing means) based on the weight of . In this case, for example, it is conceivable to change the predetermined amount α to the same amount as the weight of the first dust detected by the dust amount sensor 21, that is, the same amount as the weight of the first dust contained in the dust container 15. . According to such a configuration, the predetermined amount α is naturally changed according to the user's feeling, so that it is possible to perform the garbage disposal notification suitable for the user.

(7) By the way, if the garbage (first garbage) is fully accumulated in the garbage container 15 on the day before the garbage collection day, the accumulated garbage can be removed from the garbage container 15 (for example, the garbage It is conceivable to take them out together with the bag) and store them in another place. Therefore, in view of such points, the controller 20 may perform the following control.

That is, based on the detection result of the dust amount sensor 21, it is determined whether or not the first dust has been taken out from the dust container 15 on the day before the dust collection date (corresponding to dust removal determination means). In this case, for example, when the weight of the first dust detected by the dust amount sensor 21 becomes zero, it may be determined that the first dust has been taken out of the dust storage section 15 . As a result of the determination, if the first garbage was taken out from the garbage container 15 on the day before the garbage collection day, it is assumed that the first garbage was accumulated in the garbage container 15 earlier than originally assumed. It is assumed that the predetermined amount α is changed to be smaller (corresponding to changing means). According to such a configuration, it is possible to prevent the first garbage from accumulating in the garbage container 15 before the garbage collection day.

(8) By the way, if the garbage (first garbage) is fully accumulated in the garbage container 15 on the day before the garbage collection day, the collected garbage can be removed from the garbage container 15 (for example, the garbage bag) and temporarily store it in another place until the garbage collection day (that is, temporarily store it). Here, in such a case, it is assumed that almost no trash is stored in the trash storage unit 15 when the trash collection day comes. It is assumed that the user is not notified to take out the trash. Therefore, in view of such points, the controller 20 may perform the following control.

That is, based on the detection result of the dust amount sensor 21, it is determined whether or not the first dust has been taken out from the dust container 15 on the day before the dust collection date (corresponding to dust removal determination means). In this case, for example, when the weight of the first dust detected by the dust amount sensor 21 becomes zero, it may be determined that the first dust has been taken out of the dust storage section 15 . Then, when the first garbage is taken out from the garbage container 15 on the day before the garbage collection day, the amount of the first garbage contained in the garbage container 15 on the garbage collection day becomes the predetermined amount α. Even when it is determined that the limit has not been reached (NO in step S11), the notification of taking out the garbage is made. According to such a configuration, when there is garbage taken out from the garbage container 15 and temporarily placed, it is possible to prevent the temporarily placed garbage from being forgotten to be taken out.
