The assembly groove and the insert are pluggably connected, so as to allow the inductive cover assembly detachably arranged on the can body. Therefore, there is no need to remove the inductive cover assembly during the replacement of trash bags.

An intelligent garbage can includes an end cover rack of which the interior is hollow and the middle portion is horizontally provided with a support; a first member of which the middle portion is hollow and which is provided above the support; and a second member of which the middle portion is hollow and which is provided below the support; wherein one side of the second member is provided with an arc-shaped connecting portion extending outwards in a radial direction, and the arc-shaped connecting portion is bent upwards to form an arc-shaped surface. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the arc-shaped connecting portion is provided on the bottom surface of the end cover, so that the sealing of the connection position of a garbage can containing box and the end cover is enhanced, and user experience is improved.

A chair device, a mattress device, and a propping device are provided. The chair device includes a support stand, a seat module disposed above the support stand, a connection module disposed at one side of the seat module, a back support module connected to the connection module and disposed at one side of the seat module, a first pressure adjustment module disposed in the seat module, a second pressure adjustment module disposed in the back support module, a first pressure sensing module disposed in the seat module, a second pressure sensing module disposed in the back support module, and a control module. The control module adjusts the first pressure adjustment module according to first sensed pressure signals from the first pressure sensing module, and adjusts the second pressure adjustment module according to second sensed pressure signals from the second pressure sensing module.

An induction actuated trash container with actuation includes an upper container body, a pressing ring and a lower container body. The upper container body includes a cover panel, a main housing body, a body seat, an actuation arm, a rotating shaft, and an induction actuated arrangement. The main housing body has an indented cavity formed at a rear side of an inner side of the main housing body, wherein the rotating shaft is mounted across the indented cavity and penetrates through a left sidewall and an opposing right sidewall thereof. One end of the rotating arm is coupled to the rotating shaft while the other end of the rotating arm is fixedly screwed to the cover panel. The induction actuated arrangement is disposed in an interior space defined between the main housing body and the body seat when the main housing body is engaged with the body seat, wherein an actuation output of the induction actuated arrangement is operatively coupled with one end portion of the rotating shaft for generating a rotational force to drive the rotating shaft to rotate and pivotally move the actuation arm.

A trash can includes an induction actuated cover being actuated to move between a closed position and an opened position in response to an object, an actuation module being activated at one of an operation mode and a setting mode, and an adjustable detection distance arrangement. At the operation mode, the induction actuated cover is moved from the closes position to the opened position when the object is detected above an induction window within a detection range at a preset detection distance. The adjustable detection distance arrangement is arranged to store a desired detection distance at the setting mode. The desired detection distance is selectively adjusted from the induction window and is defined as a distance of the object placed above the induction window. The desired detection distance is stored to replace the preset detection distance for actuating the induction actuated cover at the operation mode.

The invention relates to a sterilization and deodorization waste bin, in particular to a sterilization and deodorization waste bin with a dual-band ultraviolet tube, which comprises an isolation cavity formed in an inner side of a lid and a dual-band ultraviolet tube mounted in the isolation cavity and capable of generating ultraviolet light waves for direct sterilization and ultraviolet light waves for ozone sterilization. The isolation cavity comprises a reflector and transparent quartz glass, an open surface of the reflector faces an inner cavity of the bin body, and the transparent quartz glass matches the open surface of the reflector in shape and size and covers an opening of the reflector through a silicone seal ring. The sterilization and deodorization waste bin with a dual-band ultraviolet tube has the following advantages: the operating environment of the ultraviolet tube is effectively improved, internal circuits and mechanical components outside of the isolation cavity are prevented from being affected, the service life is prolonged, and the use cost is reduced; the problems of light transmission and irradiation of the ultraviolet tube are solved, the ultraviolet light with the dual disinfection and sterilization function can sufficiently and effectively disinfect and sterilize the interior of the waste bin, so the disinfection and sterilization is effectively improved.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for determining item availability are provided. A computer implemented method for determining item availability in a shopping space comprising: receiving a request for an item for purchase from a customer, querying an inventory database to determine whether the item for purchase is in stock, in an event that the item for purchase is not in stock according to the inventory database: determining an out of stock response to present to the customer, in an event that the item for purchase is in stock according the inventory database: instructing a motorized transport unit to travel to a display space in the shopping space corresponding to the item for the purchase, determining whether the item is available in the display space based on information captured by one or more sensors of the motorized transport unit, and in an event that the item for purchase is not available in the display space: determining an item unavailable response to present to the customer.

A waste bin comprises a sorting space for sorting waste paper products from other types of waste, a movable separation element comprising a plurality of openings, a physical property sensing mechanism for detecting a physical property of waste received in the sorting space, a removal element for moving waste from the sorting space to a waste paper product compartment, and a control for controlling the movable separation element and the removal element. The movable separation element is configured to move upon the application of an external force exceeding a threshold value. The control is configured to operate the removal element or the movable separation element, based on a detection result of the physical property sensing mechanism. Further, a method of sorting waste paper products from other types of waste in such a waste bin is provided.
