Description

A battery sales and recycling machine

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the technical field of battery sales equipment, and in particular to an integrated battery sales and recycling machine.

Background Art

Two centuries have passed since the birth of the world's first power source, the voltaic battery. Over the years, the emergence of batteries has brought great convenience and great contributions to our human beings. Especially after electronic products such as watches, laptops, mobile phones, etc. have entered the daily lives of consumers, the battery industry has also developed tremendously accordingly. However, there are always pros and cons. The fact that a large number of batteries are discarded without reasonable recycling and secondary treatment has caused great pollution to our living environment.

Battery pollution is caused by the presence of heavy metals in the battery:

Lead: nervous system (neurasthenia, numbness of hands and feet), digestive system (indigestion, abdominal cramps), blood poisoning and other diseases.

Mercury: Changes in mental state are a major symptom of mercury poisoning. Rapid heart rate, muscle tremors, oral and digestive system lesions.

Cadmium and manganese: They mainly harm the nervous system. Pain in the hands and feet is a major symptom of cadmium poisoning. Some people call it "Itai-itai disease" because once poisoned, the body is prone to fractures and pain in various parts of the body.

We have found that waste batteries are very harmful to the human body and living environment, so we obviously need to pay attention to this issue. In fact, waste batteries are also valuable, and more than 90% of the materials can be recycled. A large number of non-ferrous metals are used in battery manufacturing, and non-ferrous metals are non-renewable resources, so recycling batteries can not only protect the environment but also have certain economic benefits.

If we can carefully study the history of vending machines, it is not difficult to find that the emergence of vending machines is due to the transformation of society, as society gradually moves from labor-intensive to technology-intensive. Mass production, mass consumption, and changes in sales patterns and environments require the birth of a new sales channel; and the labor costs of distribution channels such as supermarkets and shopping centers are getting higher and higher, coupled with the limitations of venues and the convenience of shopping, vending machines naturally came into being.

When we understand the harm of batteries, what we need to think about is what methods can be used to solve this problem. Environmental departments in various places and some environmentalists have actively put forward some very constructive suggestions. But at the same time, it is not difficult to see that the situation of battery recycling in reality is not very ideal. The environmental awareness of our citizens needs to be strengthened, and the recycling system needs to be further improved. There is still a certain gap between the manufacturing level and reprocessing of batteries in our country and those in other countries. These problems are obstacles on the road to battery recycling. So how can we establish a relatively complete battery recycling system? Designing a battery sales and recycling machine and putting it into use is a good method.

Vending machines have been around for decades. They are widely used in economically developed countries such as the United States and Japan because of their 24-hour service, convenient sales, no need for special personnel to monitor, cost saving, manpower saving and wide sales range. The more developed the economy, the more common the use of vending machines. The booming economy of China has brought opportunities for the use of vending machines. In recent years, the installed capacity of vending machines in some coastal areas and economically developed areas of my country has increased significantly. Nowadays, vending machines are placed in almost all schools and communities. If vending machines can be linked to battery recycling, it will not only facilitate people's purchases, but also provide people with a convenient place to recycle batteries, so that batteries can be turned into a green energy source.
