Abstract

The invention is about a recycle-bin that gives food for street animals in an adjustable amount in return for the packaging wastes thrown into it. The plastic bottle, can, composite package or glass bottle thrown from the waste entry hole (3) over the cabin touch the wire switch and turn the circuit on, which is normally off, and give the circuit a command to work for a predefined period. The relay switch that receives the command gives energy to the engine to make it work for a predefined period, and the electric engine makes the dosage mechanism work for a predefined period and leaves a certain amount of food to the food and water depot (7).

Description

RECYCLE BIN AND FEEDING DEVICE FOR STREET ANIMALS

DESCRIPTIONS

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention is about a recycle-bin developed to feed the street animals and to keep the environment clean.

STATE OF THE ART

The current recycle-bins contribute greatly to the environment. Recycle-bins in different shapes such as barrels, containers etc. are used to collect and reuse the used batteries, plastic, paper and similar wastes.

The current waste collection boxes, or the recycle-bins, are only addressing the people with high environmental conscious, and therefore in areas where the level of this conscious is lower, the desired efficiency in recycling is not achieved.

THE PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION

With our invention, it is aimed that the recycle-bins are turned into a station that feeds street animals. By doing so, on the one hand, environmental sensitivity is increased, and on the other hand, street animals are cared for and our social responsibility as human beings is covered. With the Law 5199, the Municipalities are responsible for feeding the animals living in the streets. To do this, the feeding rooms are used. Similarly, municipalities are also responsible for collecting wastes by providing waste-bins in the streets and alleys thus forming a social awareness of recycling. With our invention, both responsibilities are covered and street animals are fed. By doing so, the budgets of the municipalities allocated for feeding animals will be unnecessary in the future.

THE EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The recycle-bin that feeds the street animals is explained in figures attached, these are;

DETAILED EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The recycle-bin that feeds street animals which is the subject matter of this invention works with 12 V DC electric current. The solar panel (1) that is placed on top of the panel (4) provides the energy needed.

There is a wire switch (11) on the system. The cabin (4) is produced of polyester and has a volume of 2m³. The plastic bottle, can, composite package or glass bottle thrown from the waste entry hole (3) over the cabin (4) touch the wire switch (11) and turn the circuit on, which is normally off, and give the circuit a command to work for a predefined period. The relay switch that receives the command gives energy to the engine to make it work for a predefined period, and the electric engine makes the dosage mechanism (13) work for a predefined period and leaves a certain amount of food to the food and water depot made of chromium (7). The control mechanism of the system lies in the plastic electric panel (8). All the equipment work with 12 V DC. There is one plastic bag holder metal part, an electric panel (8), and two fuses, one contactor switch and a time relay mechanism in the polyester cabin (4).

The cabin (4) is produced of plastic material and has a door (5), two locking mechanisms and a food and water depot (7) from which street animals can drink water and eat food. There is a lamp (9) which is automatically turned on when the door (5) is opened. In addition, there is a counter (2) on the cabin (4) that is lit with a bright light to count the wastes. There is a food depot (12) with 10 kg capacity produced of galvanized metal sheet to store the food in the cabin (4). Citizens pour water to the water drainage hole (6) placed on the cabin (4) and fill the chromium food and water depot with water (7). In addition to this, there is an advertisement area on the outer side of the cabin (4) with a size of 170x70 cm.

The cabin (4) is made of polyester and works by accumulating the energy from the solar panel (1) in the battery (14). The wire switch (11) which sees the waste thrown from the waste entry hole (3) activates the electric panel (8) and the dosage mechanism starts to work (13). By this way, food is sent from the depot (12) to the food and water depot (7). Water is poured to the water depot (7) after the individual users pour water from the water drainage hole (6). With the counter (2) connected to the wire switch (11) placed in the waste entry hole (3), the amount of the wastes is measured. The extra wastes collecting on the polyester cabin are taken from the door (5) over the polyester cabin (4). When the door (5) is opened, the door switch (10) ensures that the lamp (9) placed in the cabin (4) is turned on.

Claims

1. The invention combines a recycle-bin and a feeding device for street animals. Its characteristics and basic parts are, the waste entry hole (3), the water drainage hole (6), the counter showing the waste amount (2), and a food and water depot (7) which are altogether placed in the cabin (4); and a dosage mechanism (13) that ensures that the food (12) is sent at a predefined amount and time to the food and water depot (7).
