Description

The The present invention relates to a refuse collection vehicle having a Side loader, the side loader with a telescopic device for receiving a waste container and a waste container is equipped with a fixing gripping unit.

Refuse collection vehicles of various kinds are state of the art. In essence, a distinction is made in this case in which manner a waste container is guided along the vehicle. Basically, all refuse collection vehicles have the same problem: in Germany, according to the Highway Code, only a vehicle width of 2.55 m and a height of 4 m are currently permitted for public transport. Contrary to this legal requirement is a demand for the largest possible storage space in the refuse collection vehicle itself and a high charging capacity. One approach is the use of so-called side loader vehicles. Here, a waste container is emptied by means of a side loader bed in a hopper arranged on the refuse collection vehicle. For this purpose, on the one hand side loader beds with rotary actuators and on the other Seiterladerschüttungen be used with mast. So goes for example from the DE 32 38 641 A1 a one-piece continuous lifting frame, which has a pivoting guide for the waste container. From the DE 202 17 223 U1 is also a fixed lifting frame with pivoting known. From the US 5,702,225 goes out a hinged in the upper triangle stored, otherwise rectilinear lifting frame. This can be swung out at the bottom by means of a telescopic device as a whole. At the upper end of the lifting frame this also runs as Verschwenkführung for the waste container. From the US 5,360,310 on the other hand, a lifting frame emerges, which can be laterally moved away horizontally by means of a telescopic device as a whole. The lifting frame has along a side surface of the refuse collection vehicle on a curved shape, which also merges into a pivoting region with a pivoting of the lifting frame to a funnel out. From the GB 21 68 316 A In turn, a substantially straight extending lifting frame shows, which has a pivoting area with a pivoting guide at its upper end. The lifting frame can be moved in and out horizontally by means of a telescopic device, wherein an additional scissor-like support for receiving power and stabilization between lifting frame and refuse collection vehicle is arranged. However, a use in particular in the inner city traffic such side loader is the large space requirement during charging due to their respective design and the possible resulting threat to passers-by.

task The present invention is a particular for to create the downtown transport usable refuse collection vehicle.

These Task is with a refuse collection vehicle with the characteristics of Claim 1, with a method for receiving and emptying a Waste container with the features of claim 22 and with a retrofit kit for a refuse collection vehicle with a side loading device with the features of the claim 30 solved. Further advantageous embodiments and developments are specified in the respective subclaims.

It becomes a waste collection vehicle with a side loader bed proposed, wherein the side loader bed with a Telescope device for receiving a waste container and a gripping unit fixing the waste container the refuse collection vehicle is a hopper for receiving the waste from the waste container and has a Traversing a recorded waste container along a height of a side of the refuse collection vehicle provided is, wherein the travel path at least in the majority by means of a relative to the refuse collection vehicle movably arranged lifting frame and a relative to the lifting frame movable Liftermitnehmers formed is, wherein the Liftermitnehmer the gripping unit and a pivot drive wearing.

through of the rotary actuator, the waste container at an upper End of the lifting frame are poured into a funnel. The lifting frame preferably has no in its upper region Verschwenkfahrweg in the form of a pivoting guide for the waste container known in the art, the waste container of an approximately vertical Location in a horizontal position and beyond. Rather, the waste container is up to the top of the Stroke frame moved approximately in a vertical position. Alone the caused by the Liftermitnehmer entrained pivot drive causes a change in position from this approximately vertical Position so that the waste container is pivoted so that its contents enter the funnel area. The lifting frame itself has for this purpose preferably according to a Design no travel for the Liftermitnehmer on.

A Further training provides that the Liftermitnehmer and the lifting frame be moved in each case in an approximately uppermost position must, before the rotary actuator pivot a Ver the waste container from a then approximately vertical position to the funnel can enable.

This proposal allows a particularly space-saving arrangement by the relative movement of on the one hand of the lifting frame in relation to Abfallsammenfahrzeug and on the other hand the Liftermitnehmers in relation to the lifting frame. The space available on the vehicle can be kept small. The component sizes which can be held thereby on the vehicle itself can also be kept manageable. In particular, such a construction of a side loading device allows recourse to components, as used for example in forklifts.

A particularly space-saving variant arises when the lifting frame a curved, preferably pointing to waste collection vehicle, approximately concave travel along the side wall of the Refuse collection vehicle for a waste container Has. In this case, the waste container remains due to the Guidance of the lifting frame, however, in its approximate vertical orientation and follows only the concave guide, without being tipped by the leadership itself. In this way, the lifting frame can be very close to the vehicle at the Construction be used as the along the lifting frame to be moved waste container and the required Gripper in their respective end positions closer in can push in the waste collection vehicle, while in a preferably middle position, the gripping unit in extended state with waste container farthest from Vehicle protrudes. In the end positions, however, the gripping unit be swung in and due to the bend of the to the refuse collection vehicle clinging driveway the least possible space to have. For example, it can be provided that the gripping unit so pivotable that they partially grip behind the lifting frame can, or is traversable behind this and thus still move closer to the refuse collection vehicle. This allows you to be in a resting position the side loading device at least the gripping unit, in particular but the gripping unit and the lifting frame do not have one Silhouette of garbage truck standing out. This can For example, increased safety when driving the refuse collection vehicle generated become. The driver can use the usual dimensions of the vehicle calculate and rank accordingly. On the other hand, it is in operation the Seitenladereinrichtung thereby the very close to the vehicle used Hubrahmenführung and due to the curved Traversing gear for the gripping unit to survive parts of the side loader also very much limited and preferably have only a few inches over one Silhouette of the garbage truck out. According to one Training is none of the parts of the side loader device in the resting position over a silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle out.

One Another advantage arises during the charging process. By the small one Required space when emptying the waste container the driver also only monitor a smaller room to For example, to exclude a risk to passers-by. For this For example, a camera device or another detection device be provided, for example, an infrared monitoring. Also can set up a mirror area on the vehicle now so be that the field of view is sufficiently covered with an extra mirror. An embodiment provides that a detection is present, that in an unauthorized movement in the monitored Area a movement of the page loader device stops or too blocked. Another embodiment provides that, for example at least one safety device, preferably a form of at least one Sicherheitsabsperrung ausfährt and thereby forms a blocking area. In this restricted area can then the Side loader undisturbed the waste container pick up, move, unload and set down again. A further education provides that at least two safety barriers extend. These can each have the form of a safety barrier. The safety shut-off can be extended and / or lowered or be pivoted. It may just extend, preferably perpendicular to the longitudinal orientation of the refuse collection vehicle. You can also search at an angle not equal to 90 ° extend the longitudinal orientation of the vehicle, for example at two security barriers so that an opening Funnel results, which is closer to the refuse collection vehicle. The Safety shut-off can each extend in the same length or in different lengths. Preferably the extension length can be adapted to the environment, for example by an automatic detection, whether a foreign object is a further extension interferes. According to one Embodiment is provided that the safety device extends before extending the telescopic device, both but can also be done at the same time or the telescope device drives out in front of the safety device. A length For example, a barrier can be 1.3 meters or another Measure. The barrier can also be designed in this way be that they face a threat from passersby an emptying movement of the waste container or before out falling waste while the telescope device over this barrier can proceed. The barrier can be Therefore, for example, up to a maximum of about 1.5 meters or less along of the refuse collection vehicle.

The gripping device can have a comb receptacle, a diamond receptacle as well as a gripper receptacle or other receptacles. Preferably, the comb or the gripper receptacle is arranged at an interface to the pivot drive. This way you can an even more compact merging of the various components of the side loading device can be provided.

A Continuing provides that the lifting frame in a lower position a lower end of the lifting frame has closer to the refuse collection vehicle as another upper end of the lifting frame at this time. Again a linkable with this training Another development provides that the lifting frame in an upper end position an upper end of the lifting frame closer to the refuse collection vehicle has as a lower end of the lifting frame at this time. In particular, by a mobility of the lifting frame relative to Refuse collection vehicle may be such a different each Geometry with respect to the respective ends of the lifting frame in relation be set on the garbage truck.

A Another embodiment provides that a waste collection vehicle preferably concave curved lifting frame is present, at least almost stationary at the refuse collection vehicle as well as relatively is arranged to this. Preferably, this lifting frame extends as a component of a lower region in which the telescopic device is present, up to an upper area in which the funnel device is arranged is and has a concave shape along this path. Such a lifting frame However, has no Verschwenkführung, along the Waste container for emptying the hopper pivoted becomes. This pivoting is rather by the pivot drive, which is coupled to the Liftermitnehmer. Between the upper and In the lower area, the lifter can move in the lifting frame be without the lift frame itself substantially relative to Waste collection vehicle is moved. Such a lifting frame is in slightly bent at its upper end, but without, for example, one Provide pivoting, as in the prior art for lifting frame of the above-mentioned known known Lifting frame is the case. Rather, the lifting frame is particular slightly bent even in its lower region, preferably so, that a bulge at least along much of it the lifting frame, in particular over the entire lifting frame arises. Due to the vaulting is enabled in the lower position, the gripping unit arranged on the lifter carrier still further inward in the direction of the refuse collection vehicle to be able to. This is what the construction of the side loader looks like enough space in front.

For a relative movement between Liftermitnehmer and the various Lifting frame is provided, for example, that the lifting frame a has first guide, along the Liftermitnehmer is movable. It is preferably provided that the lifting frame guides the lifter in its interior. This is It is not necessary for the lifter to have an outside guide has, however, according to another embodiment can be provided.

Of Further, it is preferable if at least a part of a drive device the Liftermitnehmers is integrated in the lifting frame. For example can the Liftermitnehmer by means of a rope or belt drive be movably arranged in the lifting frame. By arranging a part such as pulleys or the like in the lifting frame a compact design is possible. Furthermore exists the possibility that the lifting frame has a drive for carries the Liftermitnehmer, for example, the drive the Liftermitnehmers be screwed to the lifting frame. To this Way, a simplified accessibility to the drive as well as a simplified interchangeability of the drive ensured.

Of the Liftermitnehmer can be guided inside the lifting frame become. He can, however, also outside along the lifting frame be guided. A guide as well as a drive may for example provide one or more spindles, along which the Liftermitnehmer led or by the this is moved relative to the lifting frame. An embodiment sees before that a guide of the lifting frame by a first and formed a second each side of the lifting frame arranged indentation is. This guide can be used for the lifting frame Moving relative to the refuse collection vehicle will be used as well for moving the Liftermitnehmers relative to the lifting frame. About that There is also the possibility that, for example, the Liftermitnehmer has a guide that with a drive coupled in the lifting frame. Also can for the lifting frame even a guide in another, preferably at least arranged almost stationary with the refuse collection vehicle Component be present. This component is for example a console, will be discussed in more detail below.

A preferred embodiment of the lifting frame provides that this laterally inwardly open a first and a second recess and each open to the outside has a third and fourth indentation, wherein the first and the second indentation a first guide and the third and fourth indentation a second Form leadership. The first guide is preferably provided for a relative movement between the lifting frame and the Liftermitnehmer, while the second guide is preferably provided for a relative movement between the lifting frame and the refuse collection vehicle. However, the guides can also be used in reverse. A further embodiment provides that both guides are approximately in one plane, whereby a particularly compact design of the lifting frame and the components connected thereto is made possible. An indentation can be provided in various ways. So it can be a running channel along which, for example, rollers are guided. It can also be an undercut, for example, a round or square undercut, along which a guide is possible. It may also be a rail or other management option, by means of which a path can be specified and maintained.

A Embodiment with a first and a second guide the lifting frame provides that the lifting frame a first and a second Double T-profile and forms a guide on the lifting frame. Preferably, both double T-profiles each have the inner and outer Dent on and thus the first and the second guide. The double T-profile can, for example, by means of an extruded Material generated. Preferably, this is done Use a stainless steel that is straight first. to Application as part of the lifting frame is the double T-profile For example, bent under the influence of heat and pressure. By a or more cross struts with another double T-profile then a skeleton of the lifting frame can be formed.

Of the Lifting frame can be welded as well as screwed or in other Be made by connection. Preferably, ingredients the lifting frame arranged interchangeably in this. Should it be one Defect on the lifting frame and / or collision of the lifting frame come into operation with some solid object, creating a Damage occurs, then does not need to be replaced the entire lifting frame become. Rather, the damaged or possibly warped components removed from the lifting frame and be replaced by spare parts.

Around To achieve a lightweight construction, can further the lifting frame either completely or for the most part Have light metal components. So, for example the first and the second double T-profile made of a light metal getting produced. This can, for example, an aluminum alloy be.

A Another embodiment provides that a console a guide for the lifting frame, which the lifting frame in one stabilized lower as well as in an upper end position. The console points For example, to guide the lifting frame engaging means in the lifting frame, which depends on the position of the Lifting frames are engaged with this or not. The console is for example, stationary connected to the refuse collection vehicle. The Console can, for example, a drive for the lifting frame exhibit. However, the drive for the lifting frame can also be arranged on the lifting frame itself. Another embodiment sees Before that, the console provided a guide for the lifting frame Provides while the engaging means are arranged in this guide on the lifting frame. Also can the drive is detached from the lifting frame and from the console be attached to another supporting element.

A further embodiment provides that a lock is present, the exceeding of a speed and / or a Driving away the garbage truck blocked when the lifting frame not in a lower end position and the gripping device is pivoted. This will prevent the gripping device or the lifting frame are in a position that possibly survive over a silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle. For example, it is provided that the gripping unit in a state of rest as far as is retracted that they at least for the most part Part does not survive beyond an outer silhouette, This can increase safety during normal driving become.

According to a further aspect of the invention, a method is proposed for picking up and emptying a refuse container with a refuse collection vehicle using a side loader. The method comprises the following steps:

• - Extending a telescopic device and gripping a waste container
• - Retracting the telescope device
• - Method of the waste container by moving a preferably bent lifting frame and / or a Liftermitnehmers along the preferably bent lifting frame and
• - Swiveling the waste container for emptying a content of the waste container in a funnel device by means of a along the lifting frame entrained pivot drive.

A preferred embodiment provides that the pivoting of a approximately vertical position of the waste container in an upper end position of the lifting frame and / or Liftermitnehmers he follows. The rotary actuator turns the waste container at its at least approximately vertical position towards the Funnel device, so that the waste container emptied.

The rotary actuator can, for example, the waste container back and forth several times, so that stuck waste in the waste container to solve. A further development provides that the Abfallbe For this purpose, the container is pivoted against a stop, thereby allowing a mechanical force to act on the waste container and thus on the waste therein. Preferably, the stopper is arranged so that the waste container abuts against one of its side walls.

Of the Rotary actuator can have one or more drives, in particular Engines such as electric motors, for example, directly a twisting of the waste container, for example by a direct Coupling of a rotating device with the axis of rotation of the electric motor. A further embodiment provides that between a turning or pivoting device and the rotation axis of the electric motor, a transmission gear is arranged. This allows an electric motor to be used which requires a lower torque. Preferably the transmission gear self-locking. For example, can a bevel or worm gear used for this purpose become. For example, if more than one electric motor is used, They can for example via a synchronizing be connected to each other and the turning and pivoting device drive. Another embodiment provides that the rotary or pivoting device, for example via a chain hoist or a V-belt connected to one or more electric motors is. A drive of the turning and pivoting device can instead an electric motor also a hydraulically or pneumatically driven Provide drive. Instead of a motor can be used as a drive also one or more drive cylinders or other pivoting devices be used, which is part of the along the lifting frame by means of the Liftermitnehmers entrained pivot drive are.

By a use of a curved lifting frame and a process along the curved lifting frame becomes a travel path for the waste container provided that allows a compact To be able to provide side loaders that especially in the inner city area is usable.

A Continuing provides that the waste container vertical along an outward curved path along a side wall of the refuse collection vehicle is moved.

According to one Further development is provided that the lifting frame relative to Refuse collection vehicle and the Liftermitnehmer relative to the lifting frame move at different times. That way is Ensures that no disturbing overlays to adjust to these movements. Another embodiment provides that the lifting frame relative to the refuse collection vehicle and the Liftermitnehmer relative to the lifting frame simultaneously move. By a simultaneous movement of the lifting frame and the lifting handle can the travel time of the waste container in its vertical movement be shortened. For example, it can be provided that in a section of the movement of the garbage bin either only the lifting frame or only the Liftermitnehmer is moved, while in another section the lifting frame as well the Liftermitnehmer relative to each other as well as relative to the refuse collection vehicle to be moved.

A Another embodiment provides that an operator has a receiving position, d. H. a relative position in each case of lifting frame and / or Lifternehmer Specify to the waste collection vehicle and save as base positioning can. For example, this allows an alignment of the side loading device to different waste containers, the different Have dimensions and in particular heights. By the determination of a base positioning can be ensured, for example be that the gripping device the waste container so absorbs that at a later pivoting by the Swivel drive of the waste container in the hopper device emptied. Another embodiment provides for monitoring before, by means of which it is ensured that when pivoting the Emptying into the funnel device takes place. Such monitoring For example, may have a limit switch, the z. B. then triggers and stops movement of the waste container along a lifting frame, when the waste container with its upper container edge has taken a certain position, the one subsequent Pivoting allows safe emptying into the hopper unit. The operator is thereby relieved and can thus, for example using a surveillance camera, whether the emptying process was successful or whether there was still waste remain in the waste container, the shaking loose the same by pressing the rotary actuator necessary do.

According to one further thought, which is also independent of the above thought is a retrofit kit for a refuse collection vehicle provided with a side loading device, wherein the retrofit kit at least one lifting frame as above and / or as described below includes.

Of Further may also be a controller for such Side loading device be provided later. For example this can be controlled by replacing a control chip set be integrated into an existing controller.

The third side loader bed 20 is at retracted third telescope device 21 according to this embodiment neither with the second lifting frame 25 still with the first console 22 over a silhouette of the garbage truck 1 also standing. The same applies preferably for the first Liftermitnehmer 27 and the first pivoting drive arranged thereon 28 , Preferably, the first pivot drive is so relative to the first Liftermitnehmer 27 arranged that when positioning the first Liftermitnehmers 27 in a lower region of the second lifting frame 25 both within the silhouette of the garbage truck 1 remain. Is the second lifting frame located? 25 preferably in a lower end position, for example, by the curved geometry of the second lifting frame 25 and the corresponding travel path through the guide between the first console 22 and second lifting frame 25 the first lift driver 27 with the first quarter-turn actuator 28 deeper into the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 ushered. In this way, for example, allows the third gripping unit 29 for picking up a garbage bin over the silhouette of the garbage truck 1 survives, also in the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 by means of the first pivoting drive 28 can be pivoted. Preferably, the guide means 31 the first console 22 with the geometry of the second lifting frame 25 adjusted so that during a relative movement of the second lifting frame 25 this at least for the most part, preferably always in the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 remains.

7 shows the off 5 and 6 resulting third side loader bed 20 in use. The third side loader bed 20 has by means of the third gripping unit 29 one of several waste containers 6 added. To empty the waste container 6 into the waste collection vehicle 1 existing funnel device 7 to enable, moves on the one hand, the second lifting frame 25 in relation on the first console 22 up. In addition, the first lift driver moves 27 with the third gripping unit arranged thereon 29 also upwards relative to the second lifting frame 25 , along which the first Liftermitnehmer 27 to be led.

8th shows the off 7 resulting increase of the waste container 6 and resulting travel by simultaneous movement of the second lifting frame 25 and the first lifter driver 27 in a page presentation. The first lifter driver 27 is here in an approximate to the first console 22 arrived in the middle position along the travel path. The waste container 6 has a vertical orientation during the process, as it turns out 8th can be removed. For example, the first rotary actuator 28 during the process of the waste container 6 make sure that although there is a curved path, still the waste container 6 at least approximately maintains the vertical orientation until the waste container 6 has reached an upper area in the first pivot drive 28 the third gripping unit 29 and thus the waste container for emptying into the funnel 7 pivoted. How out 8th is further removed, is even in the middle position of the first Liftermitnehmers 27 the first quarter-turn actuator 28 only partially on the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 out. The second lifting frame 25 as well as the first console 22 however, remain in the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 ,

9 shows a situation with respect to the third side loader bed 20 , on the one hand, the second lifting frame 25 relative to the first console 22 is in an upper end position and on the other hand, the first Liftermitnehmer 27 along the second lifting frame 25 also located in an upper end position and thus at an upper end of the lifting frame. As is clear from this illustration, there is a drive of the second lifting frame 25 through the lifting cylinder 26 , which is at least approximately fully extended in this position. The lifting cylinder 26 is according to this embodiment with a stationary part with the first console 22 connected while out of the lift cylinder 26 extendable part at an upper portion of the second lifting frame 25 is articulated. Preferably, the linkage or the connection with the first console 22 such that the lift cylinder 26 a movement of the lifting frame 25 following in pivoting form accordingly. The lifting cylinder 26 is therefore not only retractable and extendable in the third side loader bed 20 arranged, but rather the drive in the form of the lifting cylinder 26 In addition, also adapted to the travel of the second lifting frame 25 swiveling in the third side loader bed 20 arranged. The first lifter driver 27 is preferably coupled in its upper travel position with a position indicator. In this way, the operator of the refuse collection vehicle can receive the message that, with appropriate release, by reaching the second lifting frame 25 in its upper end position, for example by likewise actuation of a corresponding limit switch, the first pivot drive 28 can be operated. Preferably, the first pivot drive 28 in an upper region of the first lifter driver 27 arranged. In this way receives the with the first quarter turn actuator 28 coupled third gripping unit 29 a greater freedom of pivoting with respect to the lifting frame 25 , For example, it can be provided that the first pivot drive 28 in interaction with the third gripping unit 29 having such dimensions that the third gripping unit 29 even over the second lifting frame 25 can spread when it is in the upper position. This allows, for example, a pivoting of the gripping unit 29 so far that the waste container 6 for example, approximately 180 ° can be pivoted. According to another embodiment, the first pivot drive 28 as well as the third gripping unit 29 be designed such that the second lifting frame 25 makes a stop. By pivoting the third gripping unit 29 against this attack, for example, a force on the waste container 6 waste and thereby loosened and in the funnel device 7 be emptied.

10 shows a side view of the third side loader bed 20 out 9 , As can be seen in this side view, the second lifting frame 25 in its upper end position as well as the first Liftermitnehmer 27 in its upper end position in each case not on the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 on standing. When pivoting the waste container 6 is the pivoting area required for this also kept very low, since the first quarter turn actuator 28 at least partially in the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 protrudes and thereby the third gripping unit 29 also for the most part in pivoting into the silhouette process can. Furthermore goes out 10 the necessary mobility of the lifting cylinder 26 out. Comparing the position of the lifting cylinder 26 in 10 with that of the lifting cylinder 26 in 8th , it can be seen that the lifting cylinder 26 is arranged pivotably. While in 8th the lifting cylinder 26 is inclined in the direction of the vehicle with its lower portion, is the lifting cylinder 26 with its lower part in 10 tilted outwards. This pivoting possibility ensures that the travel of the second lifting frame 25 not linear but curved, in particular concave with respect to the refuse collection vehicle 1 can run.

11 shows the third side loader bed 20 in its first embodiment in a rest position, preferably in one for the refuse collection vehicle 1 enabling driving position. The third gripping unit 29 is this by means of the first quarter turn actuator 28 pivoted into a rest position. This is the first Liftermitnehmer 27 in a lower end position in the second lifting frame 25 while the second lifting frame 25 relative to the first console 22 is also in a lower end position. The third gripping unit 29 is preferably as shown on the first pivot drive 28 across. On the one hand, this enables a stable mounting of the third gripping unit 29 on two ends, on the other hand can thereby the first pivot drive 28 at least partially covered and by the third gripping unit 29 to be protected. Preferably, one or more securing devices are provided by means of which one or more elements of the third side loader bed 20 can be locked and secured in the rest position. For example, these may be mechanical locking means such as latch locks, locking latches, detents or the like. In addition, there is the possibility that a lock via a fluid supply for the lifting cylinder 26 done by one or more valves are closed for this purpose. With regard to the first rotary actuator 28 can be provided, for example, that in addition to, for example, a mechanical lock and an electrical lock is provided which is an activation of an engine of the first pivot drive 28 only after release by the operator, after releasing, for example, the mechanical lock allowed.

12 shows a side view of the third side loader bed 20 out 11 , As can be seen from this view, is in the rest position of the third side loader bed 20 this at least approximately completely within the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 arranged. According to this first embodiment are in the rest position, with a driving position of the refuse collection vehicle 1 can match, the second lifting frame 25 , the first console 22 , the first lifter carrier 27 as well as the first quarter turn actuator 28 completely in the silhouette of the garbage truck 1 arranged. The third gripping unit 29 is pivoted so far that these too, with their respective arms at least for the most part in the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 comes to the concern. According to a further embodiment it can be provided that no element of the third side loader bed 20 over a silhouette of the garbage truck 1 also available. The third gripping unit 29 For example, it can be pivoted vertically as shown. However, there is also the possibility that the gripping arms of the third gripping unit 29 not perpendicular but angular, in particular inclined to a center of the refuse collection vehicle.

13 shows that for the first embodiment of the third side loader bed 20 necessary space requirement. As shown, there is a recording of the waste container 6 for example, if the second lifting frame 25 in a lower end position or in a lower area with respect to the first console 22 located.

The first lifter driver 27 is also located in a lower area of the second lifting frame 25 , wherein the first Liftermitnehmer 27 preferably for fine adjustment when receiving the waste container 6 is moved along the second lifting frame. According to another embodiment, for example, provided that the second lifting frame 25 is moved vertically relative to the first console to the third gripping unit 29 in the desired position with respect to a gripping height for the waste container 6 bring to. There is also the possibility that both, second lifting frame 25 as well as first Liftermitnehmer 27 , are moved to a desired gripping height of the third gripping unit 29 adjust. Like from the 13 can be seen, the third telescopic device 21 be extended for example 2.5 m. Will the third telescope device 21 However, however, retracted again, results due to the curved path only a distance of 25 cm between the waste container 6 and the side wall of the refuse collection vehicle 1 , If one compares this with the space required, as he for example 3 can be seen, results in a reduction of this distance by more than half. If one then compares the space required with respect to the pivoting of the waste container 6 to clear the waste in the funnel 7 To empty, there is a Verschwenkradius, which is much lower compared to that, such as for example 3 evident. This means that there is the possibility of a waste container by the arrangement of the proposed side loader bed and its preferably curved configuration 6 to record in narrow streets and in particular to be able to pivot. The radius needed for the pivoting is just so great that it approximately coincides with a width of a pedestrian path in the city center. As a result, therefore, the proposed side loader bed allows the use of such a waste collection vehicle even in narrow streets, where the use with previously known, especially equipped with two rotary actuators side loader beds, was not possible.

14 shows a fourth side loader bed 32 according to a second inventive embodiment with a first comb recording 33 , For example, the second embodiment of the fourth side loader bed 32 essentially similar to that of the third side loader bed the previous Fig. match. The respective Liftermitnehmer the third side loader bed and the fourth side loader bed can be constructed identically and in particular open up the possibility to arrange different receptacles for waste containers can. In particular, this also applies to a rotary actuator. For example, an identical rotary actuator can be used on the third side loader bed as well as on the fourth side loader bed 32 be provided, said identical pivot drive for a respective different recording corre sponding coupling means. According to the in 14 illustrated coupling of the illustrated second pivot drive 34 with the first comb recording 33 will swing another by the one with the first comb pickup 33 formed fourth gripping unit 35 allows. Because the first comb recording 33 with respect to a waste container has a specific coordinated for the waste container receptacle, which is arranged at the upper edge of the waste container, in a broad interpretation of the fourth gripping unit 35 as well as the arrangement of the first comb recording 33 this can be made so useful that when pivoting means of the second pivot drive 34 an overlap over a third lifting frame 36 through the fourth gripping unit 35 is possible. In the 14 illustrated positioning of the third lifting frame 36 , the second pivoting drive 34 , the fourth gripping unit 35 with the first comb recording 33 and the second lifter driver 37 gives a rest position or driving position in which the refuse collection vehicle 1 can continue.

15 shows in a side view of the 14 resulting rest position of the fourth side loader bed 32 , The fourth gripping unit 35 is by means of the second pivot drive 34 completely into the silhouette of the garbage truck 1 pivoted. Here, the fourth gripping unit engages 35 over the third lifting frame 36 , making the first comb recording 33 as part of the fourth gripping unit 35 also completely in the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 can be pivoted into it.

15 shows, furthermore, on the basis of a scale representation, as in the other figures, the ratio of the proportions of the individual components of the side loader bed according to the invention with each other. Thus, in this embodiment, the fourth side loader bed 32 for example, the movable third lifting frame 26 provided with a length which is approximately twice the length of the illustrated second console 38 is. Such proportionality is caused for example by the fact that in the second console 38 existing second guide means 39 inter alia in an upper end region and in a lower end region of the second console 38 are arranged. In the arrangement of three second guide means shown here 39 therefore indicates the third lifting frame 36 a length that allows for always at least two of the second guide means 39 with the third lifting frame 36 are in communication. Preferably, therefore, the lifting frame has a proportionality with respect to the guide means and their arrangement. The lifting frame may also have a greater length, so that more than two second guide means 39 simultaneously communicate with the lifting frame. Preferably, the lifting frame has a length which is not greater than two-thirds of a travel from top to bottom relationship, vice versa for the lifting frame or for a along the lifting frame relative thereto movably arranged Liftermitnehmer. According to one embodiment, it is provided that a lifting frame has a length which is between 1.20 m and 2 m.

16 shows the fourth side loader bed 32 in a lower position, wherein the fourth gripping unit 35 with the first comb recording 33 has been pivoted from a rest position to a receiving position. A fourth telescope device 40 can now be pressed to the third lifting frame 36 with the associated fourth gripping unit 35 to lead to a male waste container. The pivoting of the fourth gripping unit 35 from a rest position to a working position is preferably only allowed to control if the refuse collection vehicle is not moved.

17 shows a side view of the fourth side loader bed 32 out 16 , The fourth side loader bed 32 shows all essential elements even in their lower working position within the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 on. By pivoting the fourth gripping unit 35 into the working position, as shown, it protrudes at least partially over the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 out. The pivoting is therefore only possible if further travel of the vehicle is blocked, otherwise there is an accident risk due to the protruding areas of at least the fourth gripping unit 35 consists. This means that preferably mechanical locks must also be solved in advance, before any working position can be taken.

18 shows the fourth side loader bed 32 in operation, being the first comb recording 33 the waste container 6 has recorded. The waste container 6 is also in an approximately vertical orientation while being laterally along the refuse collection vehicle 1 towards the funnel 7 is moved. Incidentally, the apply with respect to the previous one 7 utterances made in relation to the local invention Sei tenlader bed also for the present here fourth side loader bed 32 ,

19 shows in a side view the operation of the fourth side loader bed 32 with included waste bin 6 , The first comb recording 33 holds the waste container 6 at its upper edge, the fourth gripping unit 35 a contact surface 41 provides. This can change the location of the waste container 6 for example, something of an exclusively vertical positioning during the process along the sidewall of the refuse collection vehicle 1 differ. However, such a deviation, for example by means of the second pivot drive 34 be compensated, if necessary. Incidentally, with respect to 19 also already for the third side loader from 8th made utterances according to an embodiment also.

20 shows a side view of a pivoted for emptying waste container 6 in the funnel 7 protrudes. In the pivoted state of the illustrated fourth side loader bed 32 in an upper emptying position is the fourth side loader bed 32 almost completely within the silhouette of the garbage truck 1 arranged. Incidentally, in terms of the design of the side loader bed out 20 on the to 10 made statements made by the local side loader bed, which according to an embodiment also in the fourth side loader bed 32 so can be present.

21 shows an overview of a sequence of movements between receiving a waste container 6 and emptying the waste container 6 by means of the fourth side loader bed 32 , As the overview shows, due to the curved geometry of the third lifting frame 36 in an upper as well as in a lower end position of this third lifting frame 36 the taken-up waste container be brought very close to the refuse collection vehicle, before this finally into the silhouette of the refuse collection vehicle 1 and thus in the funnel device 7 is emptied. Incidentally, according to one embodiment, the in 13 statements made regarding individual characteristics also for the 21 present fourth side loader bed 32 ,

22 is a true to scale representation of space requirements, as he already out 21 for the fourth side loader bed 32 emerged. In addition, dimension lines are specified, which represent the space requirements better. Is in comparison to the presentation 22 the space required for a side loader bed according to 3 used, it is also found here that the approach of the waste container generates a distance of only 25 cm to a lateral position to the refuse collection vehicle. For pivoting the waste container 6 in the upper end position a radius of 1.30 m is needed. This dimensions are guaranteed that allow recording and emptying of waste containers in inner city streets and narrow street canyons by means of the side loader bed according to the invention.

23 shows a fifth side loader bed 42 , Here are different shots with the fifth side loader bed 42 be combined. Exemplary for various recordings is on the one hand a second comb recording 43 and a first gripper receptacle 44 intended. The second comb recording 43 For example, to a third pivot drive 45 screwed. An exemplary embodiment of such a comb recording is for example from the DE 10 2006 032 206 out there as a lifter 15 was designated. Reference is made to the details given there within the scope of the disclosure in the context of the invention. The gripper pickup 44 is also, for example, to the third pivot drive 45 screwed. An exemplary embodiment of the first gripper receptacle 44 goes out of the DE 10 2007 026 418 to which reference is made in this regard in the context of the disclosure. The fifth side loader bed 42 thus offers a modular design that allows depending on the waste containers to be accommodated, for example, an adaptation over different shots. However, such modularity may extend to other components of the side loader bed. For example, the third quarter turn actuator 45 also be arranged interchangeable, for example, to provide a corresponding Verschwenkmöglichkeit and in particular a necessary pivoting available for large waste containers to be available.

24 shows the off 23 in waste collection vehicle arranged elements in a single representation. For one, here are the two shots 43 . 44 better recognizable in their details. On the other hand, the arrangement of the third rotary actuator 45 in interaction with a fourth lifting frame 46 and a third console 47 shown more clearly. Further details will be explained by way of example in the following figures.

25 shows an exploded view of an exemplary embodiment of a side loader bed according to the invention. The sixth side loader bed shown here 48 For example, it may in principle likewise be provided in the case of the above-described side loader beds according to the invention. At the sixth side loader bed 48 are also different shots again combined, preferably via a fourth pivot drive 49 , The fourth quarter-turn actuator 49 allows a rotational movement for an emptying of a recorded waste container and for pivoting a recording or gripping device in a rest position, in particular transport position, in which the refuse collection vehicle can be moved. Furthermore, a third Liftermitnehmer 50 available. This is designed in the form of a Lifterplatte. By way of example, the third Liftermitnehmer 50 four roles 51 on. These run within the illustrated fifth lifting frame 52 , That's the fifth lifting frame 52 provided with an inner guide. According to the illustrated embodiment of the fourth lifting frame 52 this one has two double-T profiles 53 . 54 on. These are connected to each other, for example by means of connecting plates 55 , By using the double T-profiles 53 . 54 are inside the lifting frame as well as along the outside of the fifth lifting frame 52 thus guides for a respective travel relative to the fifth lifting frame 52 or the third Liftermitnehmers 50 available. The third lifter driver 50 will be in the fifth lifting frame 52 moved over a chain drive. By way of example, a first drive chain and a second drive chain are shown for this purpose. Preferably, both drive chains 56 . 57 tensioned. Instead of drive chains, however, other drive means can be used, for example a toothed belt. Furthermore, the third Liftermitnehmer 50 an outer surface 58 , On this is the fourth rotary actuator 49 attached exchangeably. The drive chains 56 . 57 turn over pulleys 59 guided. These are for example as shown in the fifth lifting frame 52 arranged interchangeably. The outsides of the double T-profiles 53 . 54 again have due to their T-profile indentations that serve as guides for the design of the travel of the lifting frame. According to the illustrated embodiment, corresponding guide rollers 60 in these outsides of the fifth lifting frame 52 intervention. For example, the third console is shown 61 six leadership roles, three on each side. However, the number of guide rollers may deviate from this, upwards as well as downwards. There is also the possibility that the guide rollers are arranged in the lifting frame, while in the third console 61 an appropriate respective leadership exists. Furthermore, there is the possibility that there is a center guide, wherein guide rollers are arranged either inside the console or inside the lifting frame. About the third console 61 is the fifth lifting frame 52 otherwise connected to the telescopic device, not shown. Furthermore, the third console 61 with a second lifting cylinder 62 articulated. The second lifting cylinder 62 moves the fifth lifting frame 52 and thus indirectly also the third Liftermitnehmer 50 , A relative movement of the third Liftermitnehmers 50 opposite the fifth lifting frame 52 however, by a movement of the drive chains in this case 56 . 57 achieved. For this purpose, the drive chains 56 . 57 with the third console 61 connected in that there is a corresponding drive for the drive chains 56 . 57 located. However, a drive for the drive chains can deviate also also on the third Liftermitnehmer 50 be arranged itself or in the fifth lifting frame 52 ,

26 shows in a larger view the fifth lifting frame 52 from the 25 , The fifth lifting frame 52 is here in the third console 61 introduced. The third console 61 can for flanging to the telescopic device, not shown, a first flange 63 and a second flange 64 exhibit. Furthermore, the third console 61 have at least two sections that do not merge into each other linearly, but at an angle of not equal to 0 ° to each other. For example, the third console 61 from a first component 65 and a second component 66 be constructed, which are connected to each other. Out 26 Furthermore, the connection of the fourth rotary actuator 49 to the third lifter driver 50 produced continuously. Laterally on the fourth pivot drive 49 are each bolted couplings 67 intended. This can record for waste containers with the fourth pivot drive 49 be coupled. According to the embodiment shown here, the Anschraubkopplungen 67 For this example, threaded holes on, so as to allow a screw with the recordings not shown. Other types of connection are possible. The screw-on couplings 67 are furthermore with a clamping 68 Mistake. This will ensure that a movement of a pivot shaft 69 can be passed on to the connected recording. The pivot shaft 69 can in addition to a power coupling and form-fitting with a screw-on coupling 76 or any other coupling for the recording also be provided.

Furthermore, it is off 26 to see that the fifth lifting frame 52 a protection device 70 in the lower area. The protection device 70 mainly has covers. A first cover 71 For example, protects the one in the fifth lifting frame on the one hand 52 arranged pulleys for the drive chains, not shown. On the other hand is about the first cover 71 also a Aufsetzbereich the third Liftermitnehmers 50 covered. At the same time it provides protection for a bearing surface, which is the third Liftermitnehmer 50 for a waste container can provide. Since this bearing surface can be plastic-coated, for example, in particular plastic buffer, they could be damaged or destroyed. The first cover 71 offers at least partial protection against this, just as it provides, for example, protection against anything getting into the leadership. A second cover 72 For example, it offers protection for the fifth lifting frame 52 downward. Should be the fifth lifting frame 52 Move down and encounter an obstacle, for example, is the second cover 72 able to absorb such an impact energy, but without the lifting frame itself undergoes damage. The protection device 70 can therefore provide that covers 71 . 72 are provided with a functionality of a shock absorber or a bumper and have a corresponding structure. For example, may also be part of the protection device 70 the arrangement of one or more sensors. For example, a contact sensor can determine if the fifth lift frame 52 has an unwanted contact. In such a case, a further movement of the lifting frame can be stopped immediately via the sensor release. Such a protective device, for example, also in the upper region of the lifting frame providable, in particular the arrangement of one or more sensors, which prevents a further process of the lifting frame and / or the Liftermitnehmers in case of detection of an obstacle.

In the upper area of the fifth lifting frame 52 comes from 26 a third cover 73 out. In addition to a protective function for the deflection rollers arranged there 59 offers the third cover 73 also protection for a linkage 74 the local drive of the fifth lifting frame 52 in the form of the third lifting cylinder 75 , The third lifting cylinder 75 is also articulated with the third console 61 connected. This is a hinged clamping 76 intended. Exemplary details of this articulated clamping 76 are from the 26 closer removable. The articulated clamping 76 serves for the rest to the stationary arrangement of the third lifting cylinder 75 in order to make it possible to drive in and out.

27 shows in an exemplary embodiment a partially extended third lift cylinder 75 , Because of the third console 61 Fixed articulated restraint becomes the fifth lifting frame 52 along the third console 61 moves, with the respective guides in the upper guide rollers 60 intervention. In addition to a movement of the fifth lifting frame 52 relative to the third console 61 is also the third Liftermitnehmer 50 with the fourth pivot drive arranged thereon 49 relative to the third console 61 as well as relative to the fifth lifting frame 52 has been moved over the drive chains, not shown.

28 shows an upper end position of the fifth lifting frame 52 as well as the third Liftermitnehmers 50 , Due to this illustration, another functionality of the second cover 72 clarified. This can serve as a stop to avoid the fifth lifting frame 52 from the third console 61 can be moved out. For example, this can be the second cover 52 to the articulated clamping 76 strike, which is a further extension of the third lifting cylinder 75 avoided.

29 again shows the fifth lifting frame in a single representation 52 in a perspective view. As can be seen, this has a curved shape.

30 shows the curved shape of the fifth lifting frame 52 even clearer. In this case, the curved shape of the lifting frame preferably has a radius R which extends over approximately the entire arc geometry of the fifth lifting frame 52 extends. This is symbolized by the dashed lines indicated radii R. According to a further embodiment, there is the possibility that a bending of the lifting frame has different angles in different areas. Preferably, however, the lifting frame is concave as shown. Furthermore, from the 30 removable, that the lifting frame 52 has a parallelism with respect to its inner surface to the course of its outer surface. This is due to a bending of the T-profiles, which make up the lifting frame 52 manufactured among other things. However, a further embodiment of a lifting frame can deviate from this. In particular, it is possible that an inner and / or outer surface of the lifting frame deviates from a course of a guide for the lifting frame in conjunction with a console, not shown, and / or a Liftermitnehmers not shown.

31 shows in a single view the third console 61 , This can for example consist of one or more sheets, which are folded accordingly to allow attachment surfaces or angular positions. Furthermore goes from the presentation of the third console 61 apparent that the articulated clamping 76 is preferably located in a kink area in which the course of the third console 61 changes. In this way, the articulated clamping 76 at the same time to stabilize the third console 61 serve.

32 shows a side view of the third console 61 out 31 , It can be seen that the third console 61 has an angle. The third console 61 is therefore composed, for example, either one or more parts. Will the third console 61 are made in one piece, each since Lich cutouts in the two areas made at the kink, which will later form the side walls of the console. Subsequently, the preform is folded in each case. Subsequently, the middle bend can be introduced, wherein the side walls can then be put on impact and connected to each other. Subsequently, respective mounting flanges as well as rollers or other guide means can be arranged. In such a manufacturing method, the articulated clamping 76 serve as stabilization. If a multi-part production of the console is executed, for example, a similar manufacture ment of the first and the second part, wherein the then set to shock items with each other, in particular welded.

33 shows a detail of the fourth quarter turn actuator 49 ,

34 shows this in a plan view, wherein a coupling surface 77 for the arrangement can be seen on the Liftermitnehmer, not shown.

35 shows the third Liftermitnehmer 50 in a single presentation.

36 shows this in a side view. The third lifter driver 50 has a stop device 78 on. A waste container held above a receptacle can be knocked against this without damaging it. The stop surface 78 For example, it may be gummed or otherwise buffering an impact energy of the waste container. Furthermore goes out 35 one to the coupling surface 77 out 34 complementary mounting surface 79 out. On this, the pivot drive can 34 be fastened, preferably screwed, which is indicated by the corresponding Verschraubungslöcher.

37 to 44 show by way of example without being exhaustive various possible forms of lifting frame, which are used according to the invention.

37 shows an exemplary lifting frame in which rectilinear travel sections are interconnected. The Verfahrwegabschnitte are, for example, hinged together so that there is a possibility that the lifting frame changes its shape during operation. This is indicated by the upper or lower double arrow. The respective travel path section can thus be changed with respect to the rectilinear travel path section. In this way, an approach to the refuse collection vehicle can be changed depending on the position of the lifting frame. As shown, two joints are arranged above or below. However, it can also be provided only a single joint.

38 however, provides a rigid lifting frame, which has substantially rectilinear travel path sections.

39 In turn, provides an embodiment of a lifting frame, in which at one of the main traversing traversing vertically extending Verfahrwegab cut one of them kinking, for example, straight extending Trafahrwegabschnitt links.
