The disclosure discloses a dry garbage collection system and method with compressing and packing function, the system includes a central control display, a garbage putting bin, a compression and hot-melting bin, a packing bin, a forwarding bin, an air purification bin, a garbage can and a box; the garbage put in the system is compressed to form a cake shape and then performed a packing, and the garbage bags are hot-melted to shape, and vacuumized during packing process; the weight of the garbage before and after compression is compared to determine whether there is more wet garbage in the input dry garbage, so that an alarm can be sent out when the garbage classification is not standardized. The present disclosure realizes effectively compression and packing of garbage, significantly reduces the volume of garbage, prevents the garbage bin from overfilling, reduces subsequent garbage transfer times and transportation costs.

A trash receptacle; the trash receptacle includes a housing, a vacuum, a lid, at least one lid-opening means, a controller and a power source. In some embodiments, the trash receptacle includes a paper-shredder, a voice-command unit, a motive-system, a user-display and a capacity-sensor. The trash receptacle provides users with an improved trash receptacle capable of making trash collecting and disposal much easier and more convenient.

A vacuum-integrated trash bin. The vacuum-integrated trash bin includes a housing dimensioned to be removably insertable into a trash bin to form a seal. The housing includes a plurality of apertures in the sidewalls of the housing and a port at the bottom surface of the housing. The port is positioned above a vacuum pump, such that actuation of the vacuum pump sucks air through the apertures of the housing to conform a trash bag placed within the housing to the shape of the housing, thereby increasing an internal volume of the trash bag.

The present invention discloses a trash bag assembly, a trash bag fitting device and a smart trash receptacle. The trash bag assembly includes a storage body and a lid. The storage body defines a first opening and an annular trough extending externally around the first opening and configured to receive a trash bag. The lid defines a second opening corresponding to the first opening and is configured to cover an open end of the annular trough so as to form, together with one side wall of the annular trough, a gap serving as a bag exit. The trash bag fitting device is configured to fit a trash bag into a main body of a trash receptacle and includes a vacuum assembly and a motor for driving the vacuum assembly. The vacuum assembly includes an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet communicates with an air vent in an inner wall of the main body, with the air outlet in communication with the outside of the main body of the trash receptacle. A combination of the trash bag assembly and the trash bag fitting device enables fully-automatic trash bag fitting and bagging, an increased degree of automation and intelligence of the trash receptacle, low cost and higher replacement efficiency.

A vacuuming refuse container assembly includes a refuse container for receiving refuse for disposal. A lid is removably positioned on the refuse container and the lid has a refuse opening extending therethrough to receive the refuse. A control circuit is coupled to the refuse container and a vacuum unit is positioned within the refuse container. The vacuum unit is electrically coupled to the control circuit and the vacuum unit is in fluid communication with the refuse opening in the lid. The vacuum unit urges air inwardly through the refuse opening when the vacuum unit is turned on. Thus, refuse placed in the refuse opening is drawn downwardly into the refuse container. A motion sensor is coupled to the refuse container. The vacuum unit is turned on when the motion sensor senses motion of the refuse being placed in the refuse opening.

A garbage can having a vent disposed on, or near, a bottom surface, the air pump adapted to suck air from the garbage to position garbage bag in position within the garbage can. The pump may alternatively be used to push air into the garbage can to release the garbage bag.

A system for suctioning fluid is disclosed. In a cabin monument, a vacuum source and a vacuum interface unit is provided. At least one flexible hose provides a connection to the vacuum interface unit, having at least one first fluid line having a connection element. The end connection element connects to a unit to be evacuated. The vacuum interface unit includes an adapter for connection to the at least one fluid line, and a trigger unit. At least one valve unit and a control unit for controlling the at least one valve unit reside in the cabin monument. The control unit controls the valve unit at least indirectly based on a trigger signal generated by the trigger unit. Thus, a flexible positioning of a unit to be evacuated for waste compaction is possible. The disclosure also relates to a vehicle, in particular an aircraft, having such a suctioning system.

A vacuum-integrated trash bin. The vacuum-integrated trash bin includes a housing dimensioned to be removably insertable into a trash bin to form a seal. The housing includes a plurality of apertures in the sidewalls of the housing and a port at the bottom surface of the housing. The port is positioned above a vacuum pump, such that actuation of the vacuum pump sucks air through the apertures of the housing to conform a trash bag placed within the housing to the shape of the housing, thereby increasing an internal volume of the trash bag.

The present invention discloses a trash bag assembly, a trash bag fitting device and a smart trash receptacle. The trash bag assembly includes a storage body and a lid. The storage body defines a first opening and an annular trough extending externally around the first opening and configured to receive a trash bag. The lid defines a second opening corresponding to the first opening and is configured to cover an open end of the annular trough so as to form, together with one side wall of the annular trough, a gap serving as a bag exit. The trash bag fitting device is configured to fit a trash bag into a main body of a trash receptacle and includes a vacuum assembly and a motor for driving the vacuum assembly. The vacuum assembly includes an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet communicates with an air vent in an inner wall of the main body, with the air outlet in communication with the outside of the main body of the trash receptacle. A combination of the trash bag assembly and the trash bag fitting device enables fully-automatic trash bag fitting and bagging, an increased degree of automation and intelligence of the trash receptacle, low cost and higher replacement efficiency.

The present invention discloses a trash bag detection device for a smart trash receptacle, comprising a transmitter for transmitting a signal and a receiver for receiving a signal, both the transmitter and the receiver being disposed on internal surfaces of the trash receptacle, wherein the signal received by the receiver is a direct signal transmitted from the transmitter or a signal from the transmitter that has been reflected. The present invention also discloses a smart trash receptacle incorporating such a trash bag detection device and a method for control of automatic bag replacement. With the present invention, the position of a trash bag in the trash receptacle can be automatically detected, allowing improved intelligent control of the trash receptacle. This is helpful in protecting the trash bag, saving resources, reducing potential safety risks of the smart trash receptacle and increasing its stability and reliability.
