Abstract

PURPOSE:To arouse the participating will of the public for waste materials collection activity to considerably improve the collection rate of waste materials such as an empty can by using a fondness for gambling/playing mind of the public. CONSTITUTION:The number of the casted empty cans is stored in accordance with the quality of the materials (S1-S4). When a lot is selected (S6), the drawing lot for the hit money of 1000 yen, 100 yen or 10 yen is repeated until the stored count values CFe and CAl of the empty cans become zero (S10-S23). The amount of hit money in the drawing lot can be selected by the public, and a hit probability is set in accordance with the selection (S12-S15). When not only a drawing lot function but purchase is selected (S5), purchase is executed at having set cost, and a fraction which cannot be purchased is sent to the drawing lot (S7-S9). Since the public is attracted by high hit money and brings in even one empty can, the collection rate of the waste materials such as the empty cans can be improved, and the throwing away of the empty can is prevented. Then, the unit is useful for resource reuse and environment protection.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a waste product collecting device having an input port for inputting waste products and a gold product dispensing means for dispensing a predetermined amount of gold products in exchange for the input waste products.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a part of resource recycling, collection of waste products such as empty cans, empty bottles, and waste paper has been encouraged. Most commonly, a collection method is used in which each household brings in waste products to a collection site such as a neighborhood association on a predetermined day and delivers them to a collection company. With this method, you can only bring in scraps on a set date, so each household must store waste until that day. On the other hand, it is difficult to store a large amount of junk items under the recent housing situation. In addition, the unit price of waste products is low, and the interval between collection days tends to be long due to the cost of collection companies. For this reason, it is not possible to store waste products until the collection date, and in reality the ratio of disposal is quite large. In addition, many empty cans, empty bottles, etc. are thrown away at resorts and the like, and it is necessary to collect empty cans from the viewpoint of environmental protection.

Under these circumstances, in recent years, an empty can collecting device has been developed so that one empty can can be easily put on the collecting route at any time. This empty can collection device, when an empty can is loaded from the charging port provided in the main body, the empty can is compressed by an internal press to be miniaturized and accumulated. It had a function of issuing a price ticket, for example, one point per ticket. Then, if you collect 100 of these scoring tickets, you can exchange them for a book ticket, etc., so that even one empty can with a low unit price will be actively brought in, and the local government will cooperate with the collection activities. An example of adopting such a system is known.

[0004]

However, if the price of the empty cans is set to a value corresponding to the unit price of the empty cans, the collection activity will not work, and as a result, 100 or 200 will be charged. Only when I brought in an empty can was the book ticket exchanged. As a result, the conventional empty can collection device is weak as an incentive to motivate the public to participate in the collection activity, and the collection ratio of empty cans has not been significantly improved.

Therefore, by utilizing the public's spirit of fun and playfulness, it is possible to arouse the public's willingness to participate in the waste product collection activity, and to provide a waste product collection device capable of significantly improving the collection rate of waste products such as empty cans. The present invention has been completed for that purpose. At the same time, it is also an object to provide a waste product collection device capable of efficiently and properly collecting a large number of kinds and quality of waste products in one waste product collection device.

[0006]

Means and Actions for Solving the Problems The waste product collecting device of the present invention, which has been made to achieve the above object, has an input port for introducing waste products and a predetermined amount of gold products as compensation for the waste products that have been introduced. In a waste-collection device provided with a gold product paying means, a payout execution probability related information setting means for setting information on a payout execution probability for selectively carrying out the payout of the gold product to the gold product paying means, and the payout A lottery means for performing a lottery to determine whether or not to execute the gold merchandise payout based on the set value of the execution probability related information setting means, and a gold merchandise payout for controlling a gold merchandise payout operation by the gold merchandise payout means based on a lottery result by the lottery means It is characterized by comprising control means and lottery operation instruction means for instructing the lottery means to perform a lottery operation.

According to this waste product collecting device, the dispensing of the gold product with respect to the input of the waste product can be selectively executed. "Selectively" may be a configuration for selecting whether or not to dispense a certain amount of gold merchandise, or a configuration for selecting the quantity or quality of the gold merchandise to be dispensed by lottery. May be

Explaining the configuration for selecting execution / non-execution of the gold product disbursement, for example, even if a waste product is input from the slot, if the lottery result of the lottery means is non-execution of the gold product disbursement control means. Does not allow the dispensing operation of the hardware by the hardware dispensing means. On the other hand, if the result of the lottery is that the dispensing of the gold product has been performed, the dispensing operation of the gold product is performed. Then, whether or not to perform the payout of the hardware will be selected based on the information regarding the payout execution probability set by the payout probability related information setting means. As a result, it is possible to make it possible for the gold product delivering means to deliver the amount of gold products delivered by one gold product delivery operation in excess of the economic value of the discarded products that have been introduced. For example, if the economic value of one aluminum can is 1.2 yen, 1000 yen can be paid out beyond this. Even if such a condition is set, the installer of the waste product collector does not suffer a loss as long as the information regarding the payout probability is set to an appropriate value.

As the lottery operation instructing means, for example, a button or lever operated by the public who throws in the scraps may be provided, and the lottery operation may be started when the public gives a positive instruction. A configuration may be adopted in which a lottery is automatically instructed when a waste product is simply input. In any case, it is only necessary to give some chance to the lottery means.

Further, the probability itself such as 1/1000 may be set in the payout execution probability related information setting means,
It may be some information sufficient to obtain such a probability. For example, only the relationship between the value of a scrap product and the value of a gold product paid out at the time of winning may be set. Also,
The probability determined by the information set here does not have to directly reflect the unit price of the waste product itself. That is, it does not necessarily have to be related to the unit price of a single waste product. This is because the purpose of the present invention can be sufficiently achieved if the public can be encouraged. For devices such as the ones covered by this invention, the public tends to focus more on the amount of gold that they get when they win than on the odds. Therefore, the installer side can make a certain amount of profit by setting the conditions so as to arouse the public's ambition while fully considering the necessary expenses and the like of the installer.

[0011] According to this waste collection device, the public who brings in the waste can be greatly excited, but also contributes to the society even if the waste is missed due to the social significance of collecting the waste. Utilizing the psychological effect of being able to have a sense of satisfaction, the recovery rate of waste products can be greatly increased.

In the waste product collecting apparatus according to claim 1 having such an action, further, a payout execution probability related information changing means for changing a set value of the payout execution probability related information setting means, and the payout execution probability related information. It is also possible to provide a gold product payout amount changing means for changing the amount of the gold product to be paid out in the gold product payout operation according to the change of the set value by the information changing means.

According to the waste product collecting device of the second aspect,
The public or the like using this can change the payout probability, and accordingly can select the amount of money to be received in the case of winning the lottery according to preference.
As a result, various uses can be made according to the strength of the public's ambition.

Further, in the waste product collecting apparatus according to claim 1, further, waste product identifying means for identifying the type and / or quality of the thrown waste product, and the identified waste product type and / or
Or an economic value deciding means for deciding the economic value of the thrown waste product based on quality, and the payout probability related information setting means is provided with the amount of the gold product to be paid out at once by the gold product paying means. It is also possible to provide a payout execution probability determining means for determining information on the payout execution probability of the gold product based on the relationship with the economic value of the scrap product.

According to the waste product collecting device of the third aspect, it is possible to perform a proper lottery for many kinds and multi-quality waste products having different purchase unit prices in one waste product collecting device. For example, since the purchase price of an aluminum can is greatly different from that of an aluminum can, the material of the can is identified, and the payout execution probability is determined according to the purchase price. The iron can can be detected by magnetism or the like, and a material identification device using X-ray or the like may be applied. On the other hand, in the case of waste paper and the like, not only the quality of the material but also the quality thereof may be a problem in relation to the purchase price. For example, even if the same paper is used, the number of man-hours for recycling work and the quality of the recycled paper that is completed will vary depending on the paper quality and the presence or absence of staple binding. Further, since paper is apt to contain moisture, the influence on the purchase price and the close weight can be a problem. The presence or absence of staple binding can be identified using a magnetic sensor or the like, and the moisture content of waste paper can also be identified using a moisture sensor or the like that has been put to practical use in grain drying and the like. Therefore, if the invention according to claim 2 is applied to the collection of used paper, the quality can be identified by using these sensors, and the payout execution probability can be determined according to the appropriate purchase price.

The above-mentioned sensors may be used as the means for identifying the material and quality, but the inlets are divided according to the material and the quality, and the presence or absence of the waste product is checked from each inlet. It may be configured to detect only. This claim 3
According to the described waste product collecting device, it is possible to efficiently collect many kinds and multi-quality waste products without installing a plurality of waste product collecting devices. Further, also in the waste product collecting device according to claim 3, further, by providing a gold product withdrawal amount changing device for changing the amount of the gold product with which the gold product withdrawing device pays out at one time, the euphoria of the public to be used It can be used in various ways according to the strength of the.

[0017]

EXAMPLE Next, an example of an empty can collecting device to which the present invention is applied will be described. As shown in FIG. 1, the empty can collecting device 1 of the embodiment compresses an empty can 5 charged from the charging port 3 with a press 7 to reduce the size of the empty can 5 and then stores the empty can 5 in the empty can storage 9. The control computer 1 has a function of paying out the purchase price for the insertion of the empty can 5 from the coin storage hopper 11 or the winning amount (higher than the purchase price) by lottery.
3 is in control.

Between the charging port 3 and the press 7, there is a transport path 15 for transporting the loaded empty can 5, whether or not the empty can 5 has been loaded in the middle of the transport path 15, and an aluminum can. An identification sensor 17 for identifying whether it is an iron can or not is provided. As the identification sensor 17, for example, if an optical sensor that detects the passage of an object and a magnetic sensor that detects the magnetic change due to the passage of an iron product are used together, the presence or absence of the empty can and the material of the empty can can be easily determined. Can be identified. The presence / absence of empty cans and material identification results by the identification sensor 17 are input to the control computer 13.

The press 7 is driven by a command from the control computer 13 in response to an input from the identification sensor 17 indicating that an empty can has been inserted. Therefore, the introduced empty can 5 reaches the press 7 through the transport path 15 and is immediately crushed there. The empty can storage 9 is divided into an aluminum can storage 9a and an iron can storage 9b. The control computer 13 switches the position of the guide plate 19 according to the material identification result input from the identification sensor 17 to sort and store aluminum cans in the aluminum can storage 9a and iron cans in the iron can storage 9b. .. For switching, for example, a solenoid may be used.

The coin storage hopper 11 has a 1-yen coin, 5 inside.
Coins 11 yen coins, 10 yen coins, 100 yen coins, 500 yen coins, etc.
A is held and stored by the holder 11b. These coins 11a are the types of coins from the control computer 13,
It is held in the holder 11b until a payment instruction is issued together with the number of pieces. When there is a payment instruction, the holder 11b is driven according to the designation of the coin type and the number of coins, and the coin 1
1a is paid out to the outlet 11c.

Devices such as various input switches are connected to the control computer 13. Among these, the purchase switch 2 that is operated when the public desires to have the can 5 purchased at a predetermined purchase price after inserting the can 5.
1 and a lottery switch 23 which is operated when a lottery is desired in order to receive a winning amount higher than the purchase price. The empty can collection device 1 of the embodiment is configured so that the purchase and the lottery can be selected according to the preference of the public according to the control processing described later.

In addition to the purchase switch 21 and the lottery switch 23, another important switch in this embodiment is connected to the control computer 13. It is a winning selection switch 25. The winning money selection switch 25 includes a thousand yen selection button 25a, a hundred yen selection button 25b, and a ten yen selection button 25c. Then, the public operates the lottery switch 23 and then operates the winning money selection switch 25, whereby the winning amount of the lottery is set in a predetermined memory in the control computer 13.

Further, the control computer 13 has an empty can 1
A unit price setter 27 for inputting information on the purchase unit price per piece is connected. As shown in the figure, the unit price setter 27 is set with a unit price such that one aluminum can can be purchased for 1.2 yen, and one iron can for 0.5 yen. .. The unit price is rewritable so that the unit price can be arbitrarily changed based on the market price of the scrap market. It may be configured by using the memory in the control computer 13.

Further, the control computer 13 has three kinds of operation states of the winning money selection switch 25 and the material 2 of the empty can.
A probability setter 29 which sets probability setting values N1 to N6 which are denominator values of six winning probabilities corresponding to the types is connected. In this embodiment, "833" is used as N1 and N3 is used.
Is set to "83" and N5 is set to "8". These are denominator values of winning probabilities 1/833, 1/83, and 1/8 for 1,000 yen, 100 yen, and 10 yen for aluminum cans. Also, as N2, "2000" is
Is set to "200" and N6 is set to "20". These are the denominator values of the winning probabilities 1/2000, 1/200, and 1/20 for 1,000 yen, 100 yen, and 10 yen for iron cans. The set value of the probability setter 29 can be changed to an appropriate value when the unit price setting in the unit price setter 27 is changed. Further, it is also possible to have a configuration in which the control computer 13 performs the calculation each time in accordance with the unit price setting value and the mode of selection of the winning money, without separately providing a probability setting device.

In addition, the control computer 13 is also connected to a display 31 for giving various kinds of information to the public, and a random number generator 33 used when determining a lottery timing in a control process described later. The random number generator 33 may be included in the control computer 13.

Next, the contents of the control process of the empty can collecting device 1 of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The control computer 13 first determines whether or not an empty can has been inserted based on the presence or absence of an input signal from the identification sensor 17 (S1). When it is determined to be "YES", the process proceeds to the next process, and it is determined what the material is based on the input signal from the identification sensor 17 (S2). Iron can (Fe)
If it is determined that the iron can count value CFe is incremented by 1 (S3), if it is determined that the aluminum can (Al), the aluminum can count value CAl is incremented by 1 (S4).

Next, it is determined whether the purchase switch 21 has been operated (S5). If the purchase switch 21 has not been operated, it is determined whether the lottery switch 23 has been operated (S6). If neither is operated, the counting of the empty cans that are continuously loaded is repeated (S1 to S4). During this period, the display 31 indicates that there is a lottery function, or "Purchase? Lottery?" During the transition from S3 or S4 to S5. It is possible to recognize that both purchase and lottery can be performed, and to operate smoothly. Also, by displaying "iron can ** pieces", "aluminum can ** pieces", etc. based on the can count values CFe and CAl, the public can grasp the type and number of empty cans that they have put in. can do.

On the other hand, when the purchase switch 21 is operated, the purchase amount is calculated from the current can count values CAl and CFe and the set value of the unit price setter 27, and the purchase unit is taken into consideration. Display purchase price and remaining quantity 3
No. 1 is displayed (S7). For example, iron can count value CFe =
If it is 11, the purchase price of the iron can = 11 x 0.5
Yen = 5.5 yen, but 0.5 yen, which is not in the monetary unit, cannot be paid. Therefore, "Iron can purchase price = 5 yen,
"Remaining number = 1" is displayed. Then, the control computer 13 drives the coin storage hopper 11 to pay the price equivalent to the purchase price (S8). Then, the iron can number "10" corresponding to the purchase price of 5 yen is subtracted from the iron can count value CFe (S9). In this embodiment, since the unit price of the aluminum can is 1.2 yen, the purchase conditions for the aluminum can are not the same as those for the iron can. Specifically, the purchase is executed with 5 pieces as one unit (5 x 1.2 yen = 6 yen), and the remaining aluminum can count value CAl is displayed according to the remaining number of 0 to 4 pieces. It When the iron cans and aluminum cans are mixed in the introduced cans, the iron cans are purchased in even number units and the remaining number 0 or 1 is displayed as the iron can count value CFe, and the aluminum cans are It is purchased in units of 5 and the remaining number 0 to 4 is displayed as the aluminum can count value CAl.

In this way, the purchase switch 21 is operated and S
After the processes of 7 to S9 are completed and when the purchase switch 21 is not operated but the lottery switch 23 is operated, the process proceeds to the next lottery operation process. In the process of the lottery operation, first, it is determined whether or not each can count value CFe, CAl of an iron can and an aluminum can is set to a value of "1" or more (S10). When it is determined to be "present", the value "1" is decremented from the iron can count value CFe or the aluminum can count value CAl (S11). Then, "What is the winning money?" Is displayed on the display 31 to prompt the player to operate the winning money selection switch 25 and confirm the operation status (S).
12). This confirmation result and whether or not the iron can count value CFe was decremented in S11 is the aluminum can count value C
Depending on whether it is Al, one of the six setting values N1 to N6 set in the probability setting unit 29 is read and set as the predetermined register setting value J provided in the control computer 13 (S13 to S15). ).

Next, after incrementing the value of the lottery counter K provided for storing numerical values in the control computer 13 (S16), it is determined whether or not it is the lottery timing (S17). When the process proceeds from S13 to S15 to S16, the lottery timing arrival flag is switched from OFF to ON based on the input value from the random number generator 33 so that the lottery timing is randomly determined. The lottery timing determination process is separately performed. Therefore, in this S17, for example, it is determined whether or not the lottery timing arrival flag is turned on.

When it is determined that the lottery timing has not come, it is determined whether the lottery counter K has become equal to the register set value J (S18). When this determination is "NO", the process directly returns to S16. On the other hand, "Y
If "ES" is reached, the lottery counter K is reset to "0" and the process returns to S16 (S19). Therefore, for example, if the register set value J = N1 = 833 is set, the values of the lottery counter K are 1, 2, ..., 833 by repeatedly executing the processing of S16 to S19.
The numerical values 1, 2, ..., 1-833 are repeatedly changed to the rotary, and the values are stored for each predetermined very short period. Then, when it is determined in S17 that the lottery timing has been reached, the value of the lottery counter K is fixed. During this process, the display 31 shows
The manner in which the value of the lottery counter K changes is displayed, and after the value is fixed, the fixed value is displayed. This allows the public to understand that the lottery is fair.

When the value of the lottery counter K is confirmed, it is determined whether or not this value is a hit (S20). Specifically, the winning value (one of 1 to 833) for the winning money of 1,000 yen of the aluminum can, which is set in advance in the memory of the control computer 13, is read out, and this and the value of the lottery counter K are read. It is determined whether or not there is a hit depending on whether or not they match.

If it is determined that there is a loss, the display 31 displays the loss (S21). On the other hand, if it is determined that the player has won, "Hit" is displayed on the display 31 (S
22) and pay the winning money (S23). S21 or S23
After the processing of step S11, the processing returns to step S10 and the processing of step S11 and subsequent steps is repeated until both can count values CFe and CAl become "0". Since the process of S12 is also performed in the second and subsequent lottery, the public can change the winning amount each time the lottery is performed.

As described above, according to the empty can collecting device 1 of this embodiment, the public pays a large amount of money according to their preference, instead of the one-to-one exchange which is the same as the conventional purchase. Can be obtained by a fair lottery. Therefore, it is possible to arouse a sense of fun and playfulness, and it is possible to increase the possibility that even a person who has been thrown away as garbage can bring an empty can.

Further, if the empty can collecting device 1 is always installed at a predetermined place, it is possible to carry out the collecting at any time without the need to set a designated date for collecting the empty can as in the case of a neighborhood association.
In addition, even if only one empty can can be obtained by lottery, it is expected that empty cans that were conventionally thrown away in tourist areas can also be put on the collection route, which is also great in terms of environmental protection. You can expect an effect.

Furthermore, since the empty cans are recycled as resources, even if the empty cans are omitted in the lottery, the public can obtain a certain degree of satisfaction of cooperation with society, and the public's willingness to cooperate in collecting the empty cans. There is no fear of diminishing. In addition, the empty can collecting device 1 of the embodiment adopts a configuration in which the type of the empty can is also identified by the identification sensor 17, and the storage of the pressed cans is sorted according to the identification result, or the purchase unit price is different. In this case, proper price payment and lottery can be performed. As a result, both iron cans and aluminum cans can be collected with one device. It is convenient because neither the public side who brings in empty cans nor the side that installs empty can collectors do not need to sort by can type. From this, further improvement in the collection rate of empty cans is expected, and the collection work can be performed efficiently.

Furthermore, since the public can arbitrarily select the prize money, and the probability of winning is appropriately changed according to the selection, the public can match the preference and the strength of euphoria. It can be used in various ways, and the recovery rate can be further increased. Also, by adopting a configuration in which the purchase and the lottery can be selected, the public can use the empty can collecting device 1 according to his / her preference. In addition, in this embodiment, even if the purchase is selected, if there is a surplus, the lottery is carried out, so that it is effective for the person who has a comparatively weak sense of gambling to tickle the playfulness and increase the motivation to use.

On the other hand, from the installer side of the device, not only simple purchase but also lottery can be performed, so even if the purchase price is set low for each one in consideration of the necessary expenses etc., the public is You can win a prize of up to 1,000 yen with one empty can, which is very exciting. Therefore, it is possible to improve the collection rate of empty cans and allow the installer to make a profit sufficient for the recovery business to be established as a business.

As a result of these actions and effects, even a small amount of empty can, which is apt to be disposed of as garbage, can be put on the recovery route for resource reuse, and cannot be achieved by relying on conventional volunteer activities. It is possible to achieve such empty can collection rate. Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to this, and various modes can be adopted without departing from the scope of the present invention.

For example, it may be applied to the collection of empty bottles, used paper, dry batteries, etc. other than the empty can collecting device. It is of course possible to apply this to raw garbage as it can be applied to it as long as it is socially established as a system that uses resources as compost. When collecting used paper, it is better to identify the quality rather than the material. in addition,
It is also clear that payment can be made in-kind by integrating with vending machines such as juice, instead of paying money.

In the embodiment, the identification sensor is used to identify the material, the price and the winning probability are changed according to the material, and the sorting is performed when the empty can is stored. It may be a device that collects regardless of whether it is a wax can or an aluminum can. Further, the lottery may be always performed without the purchase function. in addition,
The prize money by lottery does not have to be selectable. Even with these configurations, it is possible to sufficiently expect the effect of increasing the collection rate of the waste products by providing the lottery function in the waste product collecting device, which stimulates the public's motivation and playfulness.
Further, when the purchase function is also provided, the fraction may not be sent to the lottery.

Further, in the embodiment, the lottery timing is set on the machine side in relation to the random number generator 33, but a lottery counter confirmation button is also provided so that the public can decide the lottery timing by himself. You may. In addition, in the embodiment, a structure in which an empty can is pressed to reduce the size is adopted to save space, but if the space allows, such a function may not be provided. Further, the random number generated by the random number generator 33 may be directly used for the lottery, or the lottery may be performed by a completely different method.

[0043]

As described above, according to the waste-collecting device of the present invention, the motivation and playfulness of the public are utilized to motivate the public to participate in the waste-collection activity, and to collect waste such as empty cans. The rate can be greatly improved. As a result, the resource can be reused smoothly and efficiently, and at the same time, it is very useful for preventing the environmental damage caused by throwing away the waste products.

Further, according to the waste product collecting device of the third aspect, it is possible to efficiently and properly collect a large number of kinds and quality of waste products with one waste product collecting device. Further, according to the waste item collecting device according to claim 2 or claim 4, the waste item collecting device can be used according to the preference of the public who brings in the waste item, the strength of ambition, etc., and the collection rate can be further increased.
