Abstract
A power station for functional trash container includes a high-capacity rechargeable battery pack housed in a housing, a power output terminal unit provided on a docking site and electrically connected with high-capacity rechargeable battery pack, and a power input terminal unit adapted to be provided to a docking surface of the trash container and electrically connected with the high-power demand functional unit of the trash container. When the trash container is docked on power station, the power input terminal unit on the docking surface situated on the docking site of the power station is electrically connected with the power output terminal unit to supply electric power from the high-capacity rechargeable battery pack of the power station to a high-power demand functional unit of the trash container.
Claims20
A power station for a trash container which comprises a low-power demand functional unit and a high-power demand functional unit, wherein the power station comprises:
- a housing defining a station chamber therein and having a docking site on one side thereof adapted for a docking surface of the trash container docking thereto;
- a high-capacity rechargeable battery pack, including a plurality of rechargeable batteries, being housed in the station chamber of the housing;
- a control unit housed in the power chamber and configured to control the charging and discharging electric power of the plurality of rechargeable batteries, and converting a low voltage power of the plurality of rechargeable batteries to a high voltage power adapted for powering the high-power demand functional unit;
- a power supply terminal electrically connected with the plurality of rechargeable batteries and the control unit for selectively connecting with an external power supply to charge the plurality of rechargeable batteries;
- a power output terminal unit provided on the docking site and electrically connected with the plurality of rechargeable batteries and the control unit;
- and
- a power input terminal unit adapted to be provided to the docking surface provided on the trash container and electrically connected with the high-power demand functional unit of the trash container, such that when the trash container is docked on power station, the power input terminal unit on the docking surface situated on the docking site of the power station is electrically connected with the power output terminal unit to supply electric power from the plurality of rechargeable batteries of the power station to the high-power demand functional unit of the trash container, and that when the trash container is detached from the power station, the power output terminal unit and the power input terminal unit are disconnected.
