A garbage can of an embodiment according to a second aspect of the present disclosure comprises the current detection circuit above. By using the current detection circuit above, a can cover can be opened and closed conveniently and quickly, so that the control process is simpler and faster.
It may be understood that the current detection circuit provided by the embodiment according to the first aspect of the present disclosure can also be matched with a voltage stabilizing circuit or Hall element, so that the garbage can performs voltage stabilizing treatment when the cover is opened, and the garbage can performs motor duty cycle treatment through current detection when the cover is closed, thus achieving the effect similar to that of a step-down circuit. Based on the above combination, smooth and silent lid opening and uniform closing can be realized, and the instability in a circuit conversion process when the cover is opened by a step-up circuit and then closed by a step-down circuit is avoided. The motor includes but is not limited to chive the garbage cover to move through gears, connecting, rods or direct drive.
It should be noted that the garbage can provided by in this embodiment may include a can cover having a stabilizing device. The can cover comprises a housing, a motor 1000, a buffer 1100, a driving shaft 1200 and a cover plate 900. The housing is provided with, a cover opening 110 for throwing garbage, a first connecting base 130 and a second connecting base 140. The motor 1000 is connected with the housing and fixed on the housing, and is matched with the current detection circuit. A location of the current detection circuit is not limited. A first end of the buffer 1100 is rotatably connected with the first connecting base 130, the first connecting base 130 fixes the buffer 1100 on the housing, the driving shaft of the motor 1000 is connected with the first end of the buffer 1100, and the buffer 1100 rotates under the drive of the motor 1000, One end of the driving shaft 1200 is rotatably connected with the second connecting base 140, and the other end of the driving shaft 1200 is connected with a second end of the buffer 1100. The second connecting base 140 and the buffer 1100 fix the driving shaft 1200 on the housing, and the driving shaft 1200 rotates around an axial direction thereof under the action of the buffer 1100. The cover plate 900 is connected with the driving shaft 1200. The cover plate 900 rotates with the rotation of the driving shaft 1200. When the cover plate 900 moves toward the cover opening 110 and engages with the housing, the cover plate 900 covers the cover opening 110. When the cover plate 900 moves away from the cover opening 110, the cover opening 110 is opened, and objects can be transferred from one side of the housing to the other side of the housing through the cover opening 110. The current detection circuit controls a duty ratio change of the motor to realize a linear change of the current, thus achieving the purpose of opening and closing the cover smoothly. The rotating shaft of the motor 1000 drives the cover plate 900 to rotate through the buffer 1100. The buffer 1100 can increase a torque of the rotating shaft of the motor 1000 and prevent the cover plate 900 from slipping out of the control of the motor 1000 under the action of the gravity or inertia of the cover plate. The buffer 1100 enables the motor 1000 to smoothly control the movement of the cover plate 900. The can cover having the stabilizing device can not only prevent the garbage can from shaking violently due to the too fast or unstable opening speed of the cover plate 900, but also prevent gases in the garbage can from being fanned to an external environment outside the garbage can due to the too fast or unstable closing speed of the cover plate 900.
It should be noted that, in some specific embodiments of the present disclosure, one end of the driving shaft 1200 near the first connecting base 130 is provided with a first torsion spring 410. The first torsion spring 410 is arranged around a circumference of the driving shaft 1200, one end of the first torsion spring 410 abuts against a face shell 800, and the other end of the first torsion spring 410 is connected with a connecting head 310. One end of the driving shaft 1200 near the second connecting base 140 is provided with a second torsion spring 420 and a driving plate 430. The driving plate 430 is connected with a side wall of the driving shaft 1200. the second torsion spring 420 is arranged around the circumference of the driving shaft 1200, one end of the second torsion spring 420 abuts against the face shell 800, and the other end of the second torsion spring 420 is connected with the driving plate 430. When the cover plate 900 moves away from the cover opening 110, the first torsion spring 410 and the second torsion spring 420 are twisted and elastically deformed, generating an acting force towards the cover opening 110 on the cover plate 900, and buffering a torque generated by the motor 1000 on the driving shaft 1200, preventing the cover plate 900 from being lifted up rapidly to cause the garbage can shake when the motor 1000 is suddenly started, and ensuring the smooth movement of the cover plate. When a power supply of the driving circuit 1300 is switched off, the cover plate 900 moves away from the cover opening 110 manually. The first torsion spring 410 and the second torsion spring 420 exert an acting force on the cover plate 900 to move the cover plate 900 towards the cover opening 110. The cover plate 900 can automatically move towards the cover opening 110 and be attached to the face shell, thus preventing the garbage in the garbage can from polluting the environment outside the garbage can. After a user opens the cover plate 900, there is no need to manually close the cover plate 900. which is easy to operate and can effectively improve the user experience. The first torsion spring 410 and the second torsion spring 420 are respectively arranged at both ends of the driving shaft 1200. The acting forces of the first torsion spring 410 and the second torsion spring 420 on the driving shaft 1200 through the connecting head 310 and the driving plate 430 are distributed at both ends of the driving shaft 1200, so that the force borne by the driving shaft 1200 is uniform and the cover plate 900 can move smoothly.
It is worth noting that in some specific embodiments of the present disclosure, a joint pin 331 may also be provided with a third torsion spring 332. The third torsion spring 332 is arranged around a circumference of the joint pin 331, and the first connecting base 130 is provided with a plurality of clamping grooves 133. One end of the third torsion spring 332 abuts against the clamping grooves 133, and the other end of the third torsion spring 332 is connected with a second connecting arm 330. The third torsion spring 332 plays a role of assisting the buffer 1100 to support the cover plate 900. When the cover plate 900 moves towards the face shell 800, the first connecting base 130 and a second connecting arm 330 elastically deform the third torsion spring 332. The third torsion spring 332 generates an auxiliary force on the cover plate 900 to make the cover plate 900 move away from the face shell 800, thus preventing the cover plate 900 from being affected by the rotating shaft of the motor 1000 under the gravity or inertia thereof, so that the moving stability of the cover plate 900 is improved. The clamping grooves 133 are arranged around a circumferential direction of a connecting hole 132. By connecting the third torsion spring 332 to different clamping grooves 133, the auxiliary force generated by the third torsion spring 332 on the cover plate 900 can be adjusted.
It should be noted that in some specific embodiments of the present disclosure, the structure of the stabilizing device is not limited to arranging the torsion springs on both ends of the single driving shaft 1200 according to the above-mentioned embodiments, and the torsion springs can also be arranged on different driving shafts 1200, i.e., separate design is employed on the torsion springs.
