The automatic garbage collection system according to one aspect of the present invention includes a collector for collecting the food waste from an individual storage box for storing food waste discharged from at least one household by moving to each household of a multi-family house; And a central collector for opening the door of the central collection box according to an instruction of the collector, wherein the collector throws food garbage collected in the central collection box.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a garbage collection technology, and more particularly, to a system and method for automatically collecting food garbage that can be applied to a multi-family house.
Garbage is indispensable in the human life process. In recent years, as the number of disposable items increases, the amount of waste is increasing.
Therefore, in Korea, various measures are being taken, such as enforcing the garbage levy system that puts waste garbage into the bag of the amount of waste and recommending garbage collection.
In addition, the company is currently implementing a food waste disposal system to reduce the amount of food waste generated due to loss of materials or residuals in sales and distribution processes, homes and restaurants.
However, food waste, in particular, has become a cause of pollution in residential areas and inconvenience to residents due to odor and moisture.
Conventionally, there has been introduced a device for separately discharging a food garbage through a joint food garbage input port outside the multi-family house.
However, this could only be used in facilities equipped with common food waste input ports and discharge ports.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a system and method for automatically collecting garbage by visiting households and collecting garbage.
