Electronic and all other types of waste have an impact not only on the environment but also on people's health.
Many aspects of the disclosure can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the disclosure. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, where appropriate, reference numerals have been repeated among the different figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements. In addition, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the exemplary embodiments described herein. However, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the exemplary embodiments described herein can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the related relevant feature being described. Also, the description is not to be considered as limiting the scope of the exemplary embodiments described herein. The drawings are not necessarily to scale and the proportions of certain parts may be exaggerated to better illustrate details and features of the present disclosure.

The electric cylinder 28 is mounted on an inner surface of the bottom wall 91 of the housing 9. The first support stand 27 is moved by the electric cylinder 28. The first carrier 25 is attached to the first support stand 27, and is moved with the first support stand 27 to selectively press the inclined surface 2211 of the pressing member 221. The second carrier 26 is connected to the first carrier 25. The first side panel 252 and the second side panel 253 extend from the first carrier 25. The first space 254 is bounded by the first carrier 25, the first side panel 252, and the second side panel 253. The second space 261 is bounded by the second carrier 26, the first side panel 252, and the second side panel 253. The first and second spaces 254 and 261 can hold the mobile phone 100.
In an initial condition, the first carrier 25 is adjacent to the side wall 92 of the housing 9. The first carrier 25 does not press the pressing member 221, and the first elastic member 24 provides a restoring force to the shutter 21 to close the opening 9211 of the side wall 92. When the electric cylinder 28 drives the first carrier 25 to begin to move away from the side wall 92 of the housing 9, the first carrier 25 presses the pressing member 221 such that the slider 22 is moved downwardly along the track 23, so as to move the shutter 21 to open the opening 9211 of the side wall 92, and so as to stretch the first elastic member 24. When the electric cylinder 28 continues to drive the first carrier 25 away from the side wall 92 of the housing 9, the first carrier 25 is separated from the pressing member 221 such that the first elastic member 24 provides the restoring force to the shutter 21 to close the opening 9211 of the side wall 92.
