For example, if non-combustible waste such as plastic bottles, empty cans and empty bottles that are obliged to be sorted are put in a predetermined dust box 103, the dust box 103 may be filled up immediately depending on the size of the non-combustible waste. Further, since the dust box 103 is normally closed by the lid 103a that can be opened and closed and the inside cannot be seen, there is a risk that the non-combustible dust may be put in a dust box 103 different from the predetermined box. There is a problem that reliable sorting work is troublesome.

Further, since each dust box 103 is not provided with a grip such as a handle, the heavy dust box 103 filled with incombustible dust such as empty cans is taken out from the wagon frame 101, or the processing place of the taken out dust box 103. There is also a problem in that it is difficult to carry to and the processing work of non-combustible waste is likely to be complicated.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is a dust box which can reliably and easily sort and store incombustible dust and the like to improve usability and easily perform dust disposal. To provide a wagon. In addition, in addition to the above-mentioned purpose, other purpose is that it is possible to easily store incombustible waste in a container, or to carry the container easily so that processing work of incombustible waste can be performed more easily. An object of the present invention is to provide a dust box wagon that can separately store various incombustible wastes and can further improve the usability.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, an example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a dust box wagon according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1, a dust box wagon 1
(Hereinafter, referred to as a wagon 1) has a wagon frame 2, and the wagon frame 2 includes front and rear U-shaped frames 2.
a, 2b, a plurality of left and right frames 2c that laterally connect the U-shaped frames 2a and 2b, a front-rear frame 2d that connects the U-shaped frames in the front-rear direction, and a lowermost front-rear frame 2d. It is formed by, for example, two (or three) bottom support frames 2e that are connected in the direction, and the upper surface side thereof is open. In addition, at the lower ends of the U-shaped frames 2a and 2b of the wagon frame 2, in the horizontal plane, 3
Each caster 3 can rotate 60 degrees (4 in total)
It is installed.

In the wagon frame 2, two dust boxes 4 and a net basket 5 as a container are set (arranged) so that they can be taken out. Each dust box 4 is formed of, for example, an opaque resin into a bottomed rectangular tube shape, and an opaque resin lid 4a is attached to the opening of the upper surface thereof by a hinge (not shown) so as to be opened and closed. The bottoms of the two dust boxes 4 are placed on the bottom support frame 2e of the wagon frame 2, and the movement of the left and right frames 2c and the front and rear frames 2d to the outside of the wagon frame 2 is restricted. It is arranged on both sides in the width (left and right) direction inside the wagon frame 2.

On the other hand, the mesh basket 5 has a mesh-shaped bottom surface portion 5a and four side surface portions 5b formed by intersecting or bending thin metal rods in a lattice shape and by welding a predetermined portion to the coating. The upper surface is formed to be open. And
This net basket 5 has its bottom surface 5a placed on the bottom support frame 2e of the wagon frame 2 and its front and rear movements are restricted by the left and right frames 2c, and its lateral movement is adjacent to the side surface of the dust box 4. Regulated by
The wagon frame 2 is arranged at an intermediate position in the width direction.

According to this wagon 1, food waste is stored in one dust box 4, and non-combustible waste such as trays and vinyl bags is stored in the other dust box 4. Also,
One kind or a plurality of kinds of plastic bottles, empty cans, empty bottles (hereinafter referred to as non-burnable refuse, etc.) are stored in the net basket 5. The non-burnable refuse or the like stored in the net basket 5 is stably stored by locating the bottom part thereof on the bottom face part 5 of the net basket 5 so that the upper part thereof is guided by the side surface of the adjacent dust box 5 and is stably stored. The state is visible from the outside as it is. Therefore, it is possible to recognize at a glance that the net basket 5 is a storage basket for non-combustible waste, and the non-combustible waste is not stored in the dust box 4 in which other non-burnable waste is stored. You can do it.

When the net basket 5 contains a predetermined amount of non-burnable refuse, the net basket 5 containing the non-burnable dust is removed from the wagon frame 2 and carried to a predetermined place for proper treatment. . Since the weight of the mesh basket 5 itself formed in a knitted shape is lighter than that of the dust box 4 when carrying the dust-containing net basket 5, the dust-containing net basket 5 can be easily carried to treat non-combustible dust and the like. Can be done easily. In addition, in this example, the case where non-combustible waste is stored in the net basket 5 is explained. However, when the amount of non-combustible waste is small, for example, other nets and other articles and foods used in the kitchen are put in the net basket 5. Put and store temporarily (storage)
You can also do it.

As described above, in the wagon 1 of the above embodiment, since the two dust boxes 4 and the net baskets 5 are arranged in the wagon frame 2 so that they can be taken out freely, garbage and trays can be placed in each dust box 4. The non-combustible waste such as PET bottles and empty cans can be separately stored in the net basket 5 separately. In addition, since the net basket 5 is used as a container for storing incombustible waste and the like, the storage state can be grasped at a glance, and the incombustible waste and the like can be mistakenly stored in another dust box 4 for incombustible waste. From these things, it is possible to reliably and easily separate and store incombustible waste, etc., which must be separated from other waste, at the stage of discarding it.

Further, since the weight of the net basket 5 itself for storing incombustible waste is formed to be lighter than that of the dust box 4, the weight of the net basket 5 with dust can be made as light as possible, and the wagon of the net basket 5 can be made as small as possible. It can be easily put in and taken out from the frame 2, and the net 5 containing garbage can be taken out and carried around easily, and the weight is lighter than that of a wagon in which three conventional dust boxes 5 are arranged. The wagon 1 can be moved smoothly on the floor. From these facts, it is possible to easily carry out the separate storage of waste such as non-burnable waste and the processing work thereof, and depending on the amount of non-burnable waste, the net basket 5 can be used as a storage portion for vegetables, It is possible to obtain the wagon 1 with excellent usability.

Furthermore, the net basket 5 has two dust boxes 4
Since it is placed inside the wagon frame 2 in a state of being sandwiched between the two, the head of the non-combustible waste can be guided by the dust boxes 4 on both sides by simply positioning the bottom of the non-combustible waste inside the net basket 5, and It is possible to reliably prevent the wagon frame 2 from jumping out of the wagon frame 2, and to obtain a stable storage state of noncombustible dust and the like. Further, since the net basket 5 is manufactured by bending or welding a thin metal rod, the manufacturing cost thereof is lower than that of the dust box 4, and as a result, the cost of the wagon 1 can be reduced.

In this example, the net basket 5 is formed in a shallow bottom shape having a relatively low height. However, as shown in FIG. 2, the net basket 5 has a deep bottom portion in which the height of the side surface portion 5b is increased. It can also be formed in a shape. In this case, one of the side surface portions 5b may be integrally provided with the handle portion 6 projecting upward by a predetermined height. The number of the handle portion 6 is not limited to one, and for example, the side surface portions 5b facing each other. Can also be provided in each.

A partition member 7 may be provided in the net basket 5 if necessary.
May be arranged so that it can be freely taken in and out. This partition member 7 is
As shown in FIG. 3, it is formed in a lattice pattern (knit pattern),
A pair of projecting locking portions 8 protruding downward from the bottom portion 7a
Is integrally formed, and hook-shaped engaging portions 9 that are bent outward are integrally formed at both ends of the upper portion. The partition member 7 is inserted between the opposite side surface portions 5b of the net basket 5 as shown by the arrow A in FIG. 2, and the pair of locking portions 8 are provided at the predetermined positions of the bottom face portion 5a of the net basket 5. Two compartments are formed in the net basket 5 by locking the lock part 9 at the upper end of the side surface part 5b of the net basket 5 while being positioned inside 10 (see FIG. 3) and locked.

According to this net basket 5, incombustible dust and the like can be sorted and stored in the net basket 5 and the same action and effect as the net basket 5 of the above-described embodiment can be obtained, and the following action and effect can be obtained. To be That is, since the net basket 5 itself is formed in a deep bottom shape, even if it is a non-combustible waste such as a relatively small PET bottle,
It can be reliably accommodated inside the net basket 5 in a state where it does not jump out of the net basket 5. Further, since the handle portion 6 can be held by hand, the work of taking the net 5 in and out of the wagon frame 2 and the taking out of the net 5 containing dust and its carrying can be further simplified, and for example, the processing work of non-combustible dust etc. Can be done more easily.

Further, by adding the partition member 7 to the wagon 1 as a set component, the inside of the net basket 5 can be partitioned into, for example, two compartments. When it is desired to sort, for example, a pad bottle can be accommodated in one compartment and an empty can can be accommodated in the other compartment, so that the non-combustible wastes can be separately and easily separated and accommodated. At this time, by setting a plurality of partition members 7 instead of one, it is possible to separately store PET bottles and empty cans or empty bottles, etc., and dispose of scissors, gloves, strings, etc. used for disposing of garbage in one section. A tool can also be accommodated, and the garbage disposal work can be performed more easily. From these things, the usability of the net basket 5 (wagon 1) can be further improved.

Further, a pair of projecting locking portions 8 provided on the bottom portion 7a of the partition member 7 should be inserted into the two stitches 10 at predetermined positions which are inevitably formed on the bottom portion 5a of the net basket 5. Since the partition member 7 is arranged in the net basket 5, the structure for locking the partition member 7 to the net basket 5 is simplified, and the partition member 7
It is possible to form the net basket 5 including
Since many partition walls are formed, the partition member 7 can be easily arranged at a desired position, and the usability of the net basket 5 can be further improved.
