A pedal mashing device is provided to a rear portion of the domestic garbage disposal unit. The garbage disposal box is covered by solar panels and a computer display. An auto electronic weighing plate is provided to top the garbage disposal box. A set of mashing cutters is disposed inside the garbage disposal box to connect spatially with a fermentation area, and an organic fertilizer area is located under the fermentation area. The recyclable garbage disposal unit is furnished with a garbage entrance at an upper portion thereof and three external drawers corresponding to three recycle chambers. The plastic garbage disposal unit covered by solar panels is furnished thereinside a gravity compression iron and a battery set. The garbage disposal box provided by this patent disclosure and featured in flexible garbage dispersing functions can resolve environmental degradation caused by garbage piling and environmental pollution caused by the current garbage disposal means, and can also provide a possibility to maximize the garbage utilization rate.

The disclosure describes waste receptacles for processing waste comprising a waste portal configured to accept waste deposited by an end user, a waste analysis unit positioned proximate to the waste portal, a waste conveyor connected to the waste portal, a paddle or robotic member positioned over the waste conveyor and configured to push the waste off the waste conveyor and into a grinder or into a waste commodity container.

A guided trash can cart assembly for automatically transporting a garbage can to a pick up location includes a cart that has a pair of tracks on each side of the cart to drive the cart along a support surface. A dump box is hingedly integrated into the cart to receive a package delivery. An actuator is integrated into the cart and the actuator urges the dump box into a dumping position and a lowered position. An engagement element is integrated into the cart. A garbage can is provided and the engagement element releasably engages the garbage can. In this way the cart can transport the garbage can to a predetermined location.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a vehicle body supported by the chassis, a lift assembly, and a projector. The vehicle body defines a receptacle for storing refuse. The lift assembly is configured to selectively engage a waste container. The lift assembly is movable between a first position and a second position. The projector is positioned to emit light outwardly away from the refuse vehicle and proximate the lift assembly to define a target area.

Systems, methods, and apparatuses for controlling electrically-powered trash receptacles and monitoring fullness levels. The system can include a storage enclosure and a bin contained inside the storage enclosure, the bin configured to receive and store items deposited in the storage enclosure, wherein an inside portion of the bin is at least partially covered by a bag placed inside the bin to hold the items deposited in the storage enclosure. The system can also include a sensor configured to sense a content fullness state of the bin and a processor configured to control operations performed by the sensor. In addition, the system can include a sleeve configured to be installed over an inside portion of the bin and the bag, the sleeve at least partially restricting a movement of the bag.

The disclosure relates to a method and a device for collecting garbage. The method includes acquiring a garbage type of garbage to be collected; determining a garbage collector for recycling garbage of the garbage type; and controlling the garbage collector to output a first prompt message to prompt a user to put the garbage to be collected into the garbage collector.

A bin aid is provided that is adapted to raise and lower a bin lid of a bin, the bin aid including a main body and a connection means functionally connectable with the main body and able to functionally engage with the bin lid. The connection means includes a rotatable unit and a control means for controlling one or more functions to aid the use of a bin including to selectively control the connection means. The connection means is able selectively to raise and to lower the bin lid with respect to the closely located bin.

Embodiments relate generally to waste receptacles and more particularly to smart waste receptacles capable of identifying waste. A waste receptacle may identify waste using machine vision and perform a task in response to identifying the waste. In an embodiment, the smart waste receptacle may instruct a user to direct the waste to one of a plurality of waste bins based on a category of the waste. In an embodiment, the smart waste receptacle may place an order to replenish the stock of a product based on the identification of waste. In an embodiment, the smart waste receptacle is created by attaching a smart device to a standard waste receptacle.
