Smart waste device and waste tracking system
An electronic waste tracking device, process, and system to track waste from one location to another location.
Roll out cart
A container, such as a roll-out cart, includes a body portion and a lid. The body portion includes an outer wall extending upward from a base wall to a mouth of the body portion. The lid is secured to the body portion and pivotable between a closed position over the mouth and an open position. The lid includes an upper lid portion and a lower lid portion. The upper lid portion extends downward to an outer lip. The lower lid portion extends downward to an inner lip. The inner lip is inward of the outer wall of the body portion when the lid is in the closed position. The outer lip is outward of the outer wall of the body when the lid is in the closed position.
FOOD WASTE STORAGE DEVICE FOR DINING TABLE
The present invention discloses a food waste storage device for a dining table. A plurality of through holes are provided in the table top of the dining table; dish-shaped storage bucket fixing bases are provided on the lower end surfaces of the through holes; storage buckets are provided below the storage bucket fixing bases; a longitudinal partition plate is provided in each storage bucket to divide the storage bucket into two semicircular buckets; inner containers are provided in the two semicircular buckets; storage bucket upper covers are provided in the through holes; turnover covers capable of turning over symmetrically are provided on the storage bucket upper covers; and turnover shafts of the turnover covers are parallel to the partition plates.
METHODS OF RECYCLABLE ELECTRONIC BASED REWARD SYSTEM FOR INVOKING PROPER RECYCLING PROCEDURES
The invention relates to tracking and analyzing human behavior through a network and granting compensation to participants through adjusting rewards for said behaviors associated with improving their recycling habits.
A REFUSE COLLECTION SYSTEM
The technology relates to a refuse collection system including: a camera configured to capture image data; a sensor configured to capture spatial data; and a processing module in communication with the camera and the sensor, the processing module configured to: process the image data to assist in identifying an object; and process the spatial data in a region associated with the object in order to determine one or more characteristics associated therewith, wherein in response to confirming that the object is a bin based on the one or more characteristics associated with the object, the processing module is configured to provide information to assist in retrieving the bin with a bin-collecting device.
Refuse vehicle control system and method of controlling a refuse vehicle
The present invention relates to a control system for a refuse vehicle and a method for controlling a refuse vehicle provided with at least one refuse container location sensor, at least one vehicle speed control, and one or more electronics. The one or more electronics receive and process signals from the at least one refuse container location sensor and outputs a control signal to the at least one vehicle speed control to stop the refuse vehicle at a predetermined location with respect to a refuse container.
DEBRIS CARTS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF USING SAME
Systems and methods for processing debris from job sites are disclosed. Carts for receiving the debris are also disclosed. Each cart has a base, a plurality of wheels extending downwardly from the base relative to a vertical axis, and a plurality of walls extending upwardly from the base. The walls and the base of each cart cooperate to define a debris-receiving space. The carts can be engaged by a lifting apparatus that rotates along an arcuate path to position the carts in an unloading position.
MONITORING FULLNESS OF CONTAINERS
A waste container monitoring system may include a monitoring device configured to be positioned in a waste container, a remote processing system, and sensors to monitor conditions of the container. A communication connection communicates the one or more conditions to the remote processing system. A waste compactor monitoring system may include a monitoring assembly having a hub device and one or more sensors connected to the hub device and distributed around the waste compactor system, the one or more sensors being configured to monitor one or more conditions of the waste compactor system. A sensor assembly for a waste container monitoring system may connect to a hydraulic reservoir in a waste compactor. The sensor assembly may include a breather cap, a sensing element for detecting a level and/or a temperature of fluid in the hydraulic reservoir, and a dip tube to support the sensing element inside the hydraulic reservoir.
Waste receptacle
A waste cart includes a base housing; a center upright having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the proximal end is secured to the base housing; a top housing secured to the distal end of the center upright, wherein the top housing has two or more disposal openings for two or more separate disposal portions including, a first waste portion which has a first metal detector and an indicator for providing a notification when a metal item passes through the opening; and a second waste portion which includes a second metal detector and an indicator for providing a notification when a metal item passes through the opening; an electronics module which operates each metal detector independently; and an alarm indicator operationally associated with the electronics module which is activated when the electronics module detects the passage of a metal item through an opening into a waste portion.
Debris carts and systems and methods of using same
Systems and methods for processing debris from job sites are disclosed. Carts for receiving the debris are also disclosed.
