The subject of the invention is a device for waste segregation and collection of segregated waste with a waste recognition, segregation and distribution section, a compression mechanism and storage bins is distinguished by the storage bins (15)(16) which have fill level sensors and which are inserted in the guideways of the base (13), directly over one of the side storage bins (15) there is a throwing box attached to the casing, with a throwing tunnel (9) and with a lid with a sensor that detects whether the lid is open or closed (4), above the bins (16) on a system of horizontal guideways (12), which are attached to the casing, there is a distribution cart (10) that moves sideways on the guideways, with a power system with a gear motor, which is controlled with a control system, the distribution cart (10) has a throwing mechanism (14)at least one automatic throwing lid (11), the distribution cart works with its own throwing box with a lid with a sensor that detects whether its closed or open (6), within the throwing channel of the throwing box (6) there is a sensor of the waste recognition systema camera.

Systems and Methods of Recovering Household Waste

In certain embodiments, a system includes at least one optical sensor configured to capture one or more optical data associated with packaging of a waste product and a processor coupled to the at least one optical sensor. The processor may be configured to determine information about the waste product based on the optical data and send a signal corresponding to the information to one of a destination device and a controller based on the determined information.

Waste Bin And Method Of Sorting Waste Paper Products From Other Types Of Waste In A Waste Bin

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.

Refuse contamination analysis

A computer-implemented method for analyzing refuse includes operations of receiving sensor data indicating an operational state of a vehicle body component of a refuse collection vehicle (RCV); analyzing the sensor data to detect a presence of a triggering condition based at least partly on a particular operational state of the vehicle body component, as indicated by the sensor data; in response to detecting the triggering condition, accessing image data indicating a physical state of refuse collected by the RCV; providing the image data as input to at least one contaminant detection model trained, using at least one machine learning (ML) algorithm, to output a classification of the image data, the classification indicating a degree of contamination of the refuse; and storing, in a machine-readable medium, the classification of the image data.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR COLLECTING GARBAGE

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.

REFUSE CONTAMINATION ANALYSIS

A computer-implemented method for analyzing refuse includes operations of receiving sensor data indicating an operational state of a vehicle body component of a refuse collection vehicle (RCV); analyzing the sensor data to detect a presence of a triggering condition based at least partly on a particular operational state of the vehicle body component, as indicated by the sensor data; in response to detecting the triggering condition, accessing image data indicating a physical state of refuse collected by the RCV; providing the image data as input to at least one contaminant detection model trained, using at least one machine learning (ML) algorithm, to output a classification of the image data, the classification indicating a degree of contamination of the refuse; and storing, in a machine-readable medium, the classification of the image data.

Recycling Container
20190382195 · 2019-12-19 ·

A recycling container with holes and slots that allow materials to be inserted one at a time into the container in an attempt to prevent non-recyclable material from being inserted into the recycling container. The recycling container further comprises a divider to separate types of materials, and may comprise a locking mechanism to restrict opening, wheels, a method of preventing materials from being withdrawn from the recycling container, or a drain.

Systems and methods for enhancing waste disposal and energy efficiency using sensor and alternative power technologies

A computer system including sensor and alternative power technologies for enhancing waste disposal and energy efficiency using is provided. The computer system may be configured to receive waste data and recycling data from at least one sensor located proximate to a waste bin, and determine a level of waste in the waste bin based upon the received waste data, and a level of contamination of the waste bin based upon the received recycling data. The computer system may be also configured to determine whether collection of waste in the waste bin or decontamination of the waste bin is required. The computer system may be further configured to generate an alert including information corresponding collection or decontamination of the waste bin, and transmit the alert to one or more client devices associated with at least one user.
