    [0004] TECHNICAL SECTOR
    [0005]
    [0006] The present invention falls within the sector of storage devices. The scope of the object of the present invention is to identify and process waste using a control system that evaluates waste according to the information provided by a detection and measurement system.
    [0007]
    [0008] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    [0009]
    [0010] Currently there is a serious problem worldwide with the waste generated in society, which is increasing and for which effective solutions do not emerge that help curb the great environmental impact produced since the amount of waste that ends up in seas , oceans, rural and urban areas continues to grow considerably. The present invention proposes an effective and easy-to-implement solution for storing processed waste, which is previously identified so that it can subsequently be subject to recovery and recovery for its return to the market, maintaining its traceability and thus reducing the generation of new waste.
    [0011]
    [0012] To date, existing waste storage devices that have a selective identification system have not been shown to be adapted for wide implementation due to their size and complexity. The present invention proposes a contribution to the solution of these problems by means of a waste storage system, an application for mobile devices and a control system defined in the attached claims 1, 6 and 7 respectively.
    [0013]
    [0014] Invention patent ES2362071 shows a machine for collecting and reducing packaging. Said machine comprises a rotary drum type transport system that can include a waste identification device as well as of measuring your weight. A control device thus evaluates whether the waste can be crushed, in which case it is transported to a punching station to empty it and then to the crushing station. If the waste is considered unfit to be crushed, it is transported by the transport system directly to a storage tank. This invention patent ES2362071, which represents the state of the art closest to the present invention, shows a container crushing device but in no case does it mention a crushing or shredder processing such as that of the present invention, which allows a much greater reduction in the volume of the inserted packages, thus allowing them to occupy less space in the storage system.
    [0015]
    [0016] Furthermore, the present invention has the advantage of not needing to have a transport system since the waste is weighed and identified in the detection and measurement zone in which it has been deposited by the user. Only if it is considered suitable by the control system, an opening is opened through which it falls by gravity to the crusher. If it is considered unsuitable, it remains in the detection and measurement zone in which it has been deposited by the user. This may be the case when, for example, the weight of the residue that is in the detection and measurement zone exceeds a predefined maximum level because, for example, said residue contains some liquid inside it. Thus, the presence of said opening system that makes it possible to dispense with a transport system such as that known in the invention patent ES2362071 has the considerable advantage that the device as a whole has much more compact dimensions. This compactness makes the device of the present invention much more suitable to be implanted in small spaces, both domestically and professionally (kitchens, pantries, warehouses, restaurants, offices, etc.), with the environmental advantages that this entails. In addition, the power to dispense with a transport system such as that known in the invention patent ES2362071 allows a great mechanical simplification that implies greater reliability, less maintenance and a lower purchase price, which in turn also contributes significantly to facilitating its implantation.
    [0017]
    [0018] The use of a shredder-type shredder to process waste is known for example from invention patents US7546965 and EP0605709 but in no case do they employ an initial identification system that classifies the input waste as fit or unfit and processes only those fit. These inventions deal with everything type of waste that enters the device and may cause malfunctions or failures in it.
    [0019]
    [0020] Therefore, the cited documents, considered separately or in combination, neither show or suggest a device as defined in claim 1 of this document, nor do they mention the problem of the compactness and reliability of the device.
    [0021]
    [0022] EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

    [0062] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
    [0063]
    [0064] To complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, a set of drawings is included as an integral part of said description in which, by way of non-limiting example only, a practical case of implementation is represented:
    [0065]
    [0066] Figure 1.- Shows a schematic front view of an example of the device of the invention.
    [0067]
    [0068] Figure 2.- Shows a schematic side view of an example of the device of the invention.
    [0069]
    [0070] PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
    [0071]
    [0072] By way of example, a practical embodiment of the waste storage device (1) is represented, consisting of an intelligent domestic container, which, by means of a set of sensors and actuators, identifies, crushes and stores light plastic containers and metallic. The represented object of the invention has an automated control system (5), which communicates with an external web server located in the cloud that receives the information sent by the control system (5) of the container after collecting it from the set sensors and actuators inside it.
    [0073]
    [0074] The information received by the external web server is stored in a database and processed for different operations such as the calculation of optimal routes for the collection of waste, the registration of the type of material processed, the weight and traceability of the waste until your recovery or recycling process. After processing the information on the server, it will notify or send certain data to a mobile device application or app that the user will have and, in which different information can be obtained depending on the type of registered user, for example, the optimal waste collection route for the waste collection manager or the diagnosis of several containers for technical support.
    [0075]
    [0076] The present invention introduces an improvement in waste storage devices thanks to its automated control and management model and communication with other external devices, thus enabling said smart devices to be connected to other systems, for example, within the scope of Smart Cities or the Internet of Things (IoT).
    [0077]
    [0078] The waste processed and stored by the smart household container is purchased from its user, be it a company or a natural person, thus encouraging recycling and allowing the purchase of the container to be amortized. The waste is collected, for example, by an urban messaging network and transported for sale to the waste manager who will treat the waste for recovery or recycling.
    [0079]
    [0080] The present represented object of the invention is composed of four zones or spaces clearly differentiated within it. The upper part or detection and measurement zone is made up of an opening, for example a drawer, a revolving door or a top opening, into which the user introduces the waste. This area has a detection and measurement system (2) for the waste that has been introduced. The detection and measurement area has an access to the processing area formed by an opening and closing device (6), for example of the hatch type, which opens or unfolds in parts or pieces if the control system (5) has defined the waste as suitable, thus enabling the shipment of the waste to the processing area. Said open or unfolded parts or pieces of the detection and measurement zone form part of the funnel walls towards a shredder crusher that acts as a processing system (3) within the processing zone.
    [0081]
    [0082] The zone or intermediate space of the container is the so-called processing zone, which includes the processing system (3) which is composed of a shredder crusher and a screen that acts as a filtering system (7) of the material processed by said system. The filtering system (7) is located in the lower part of the processing area.
    [0083]
    [0084] The lower area of the container includes the storage area in which In this case, a storage system (4) is located inside a warehouse where the processed material that falls from the processing area is stored and which is accessed through a door with an installed security system.
    [0085]
    [0086] The fourth area or space of the container is located on the side of the container and constitutes the control area of the storage device. The control area consists of the control system (5), which is made up of the central processing unit, the input and output modules, the external connection module, the electrical supply and the crusher motor.
    [0087]
    [0088] This example of device of the present invention basically works as follows:
    [0089] The user opens the entrance opening of the detection and measurement system and introduces a residue. Once the entrance is closed and secured, the residue is evaluated in the detection and measurement area, obtaining information on its weight and the type of material through a set of sensors, thus enabling its identification as suitable or unsuitable material. . If the control system (5) of the control zone considers the material suitable, the hatch of the opening and closing device (6) of the detection and measurement zone is opened, thus allowing the material to fall by gravity towards the processing area and activating the shredder crusher. After processing the material, it passes through the filtering system (7) and falls into the storage area where it remains inside a tank until it is collected. The storage area has a sensor that informs about the filling of the tank to the control system (5) and this communicates it, along with other data of interest, to an external data server so that they can be processed and stored in a database. . Finally, the necessary information is sent to the mobile application of the different agents involved in the management and collection model so that they can act on it. In the event that the control system (5) of the control area considers the material as unsuitable, the hatch of the opening and closing device (6) remains closed and the device emits a signal, for example acoustic or light, to inform the user that the waste cannot be processed and must be removed from the detection and measurement area.
    [0090]
    [0091] This example only represents one of the numerous possibilities of configuring the present invention, an invention that includes all the possible configurations and modifications covered by the scope of protection of the claims attached.
