Single-button control method of an induction actuated container

A single-button control method of an induction actuated container, wherein the container comprises a control system which comprises a control button, an IR sensor, a microcontroller unit, a drive circuit and a motor to move a cover panel of the container between an opened position and a closed position, wherein the control method comprises the steps of:

• activating the control system of the induction actuated container, such that the control system is in a power-on state, wherein when the control system is in the powered-on state, the IR sensor controlled by the micro controller unit is operating in a normally-detecting state;
• detecting an object within a predetermined detecting area of the IR sensor when the IR sensor operates in the normally-detecting state, wherein if a presence of an object within the predetermined detecting area is detected, the cover panel of the container is moved to its opened position by the motor, and if not, the IR sensor remains operating in the normally-detecting state, wherein the motor is controlled by the microcontroller unit through the drive circuit;
• actuating, in responsive to a click of the control button, the cover panel to move to its opened position by the motor, when the control system is in the power-on state and the cover panel is in the closed position, wherein the motor is controlled by the microcontroller unit through the drive circuit;
• normally retaining, in responsive to a click of the control button, the cover panel in the opened position such that the cover panel is in a normally-opened position, when the control system is in the power-on state and the cover panel is moved to its opened position in responsive to a presence of an object within the detecting area of the IR sensor;
• and
• actuating, in responsive to a click of the control button, the cover panel to move to its closed position, when the cover panel is in the normally-opened position.
