Description
~23~3g:~
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The presen-t invention relates to a vehicle for curbside collection of source separated recyclable materials.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENl'ION
-Curbside source separation is one s-tep in comprehensive waste control. In order to remove and to re-use as much material in the waste s-tream, separate collection of newspapers, glass bottles, plastic containers, metal cans and, ultimately other marketable materials, must be carried out with vehicles (trucks) of special construc-tion capable of separately storing the collected materials.
One presently known truck consists of an enclosed compartmentalized body mounted on a low entry walk~in cab with dual left and right hand driving controls to facilitate the use of a one-person crew.
; Although this vehicle is capable of an adequate job, it has been found that the loading height on the side of the vehicle is too high, making it difficult for the collector to place the materials in the truck body.
Another known vehicle consists of a -totally enclosed compartmentalized self-dumping unit installed on a standard chassis. The body is a steel structure with center hung adjustable partitions. The truck is equipped with an hydraulic lifting rail running the length of the body. Laterally movable metal boxes are 3~
secured to -the rail and positioned in rela-tionship to the partitions in the body. The collected materials are placed in the metal boxes and are mechanically lifted and emptied into the truck. When the loading rail reaches the top of the body, the roof opens at a 45 angle. The lifting rail continues over the top of the body and the boxes are dumped down into the body.
This unit eliminates two of the disadvantages of existing recycling vehicles: the high loading height and the fixed vertical posts between the side hatches are avoided. However, one disadvantage of this unit is the height of -the rooE when it is in the open position and which is a source of problems because of low hanging wires and branches in streets. The discharging of the collection of the material on all known units is carried out by opening one or two rear panels, each compartment being discharged separately by removing sequentially the dividing walls defining the compartments. This operation requires a minimum of four backing-up manoeuvres.
O~JECT AND STATEMENT OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle for the curbside collection of source separated recyclable materials which overcomes the above problems associated with presently known vehicles.
It is also an object of the present invention 3C~
to provide a vehicle where the discharging can be done on any one side or rear of the vehicle, with a minimum of truck movement.
The present invention thereby relates to a vehicle for curbside collec-tion of source separated collection of recyclable materials which comprises:
A vehicle for curbside collection of source separated collection of recyclable materials comprising:
- a wheel-supported understructure having front and rear sections;
- a driver compartment mounted to the front section of the understructure;
- a dumping unit mounted to the rear section of the understructure; the unit including a box-like frame having front, rear and side walls and displaying therein a plurality of longitudinally spaced dividing walls defining a first series of compartments;
- a vertically movable trough extending longitudinally of the frame along one side wall ; 20 thereof; said trough displaying therein a plurality of longitudinally spaced dividing walls defining a second series of compartments to receive source separated recyclable materials;
- means on the unit for vertically guiding the trough along the side wall; the guiding means allowing the trough to move to an upper discharging position whereby recyclable materials collected in each ;3~3 compartment of the trough are dumped into a correspondi.ng compartmen-t of the box-like frame;
- actuatable means mounted between the box-like frame and the understructure for moving the frame relative to the understructure;
- hinge points on the frame and the understructure, located a-t the lower portion of each side wall;
- removable retaining means receivable in each hinge point and cooperating with the actuatable means to tilt the frame about those hinge points from which the retaining means are not removed; and ~ latchable door means a-t the bottom of each compartment of the frame allowing the materials to be discharged when the frame is tilted.
In one form of the invention, the frame includes a top wall which lS spaced from the top end of the frame a distance sufficient to allow the discharging of the trough into the first series of compartrnents.
Other objects and further scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. It should be understood, however, that this detailed description, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, is given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifi,cations within -the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring to Figure 1 and 2, there is shown a vehicle, generally denoted 10, for the curbside collectlon of source separated recyclable materials.
The vehicle comprises a wheel-supported understructure 12, the front section of which receives a driver compartment 14 and the rear section of which supports a dumping unit 16.
~ J~3~
The dumping unit 16 includes a box-like frame consisting of a front wall 18, a top wall 20, a rear wall 22, a bo-ttom wall 23 (see Figure 3) and opposite side walls 24 and 26.
Referring also to E'igures 3 and 4, the understructure 12 comprises an elongated cen-trally extending frame 28 consisting of two longitudinal beams 28a and 28b having their opposite front and rear extremities fixedly connected to transverse frames 30 and 32. A cylinder 34 has its lower end pivotally connected at 36 to a frame plate 37 (see Figure 8) mounted to beams 28a and 28b and its upper end pivotally connected at 38 in a recessed area 40 of the bottom wall 23 of the frame.
Referring to Figure 5, the frame is formed of a series of longitudinally spaced dividing walls 44, ~ 46, 48, 50 and 52 that define a series of compartments ; 54, 56, 58 and 60 which may be of varying dimensions.
An elongated trough 62 extends longitudinally of the frame adjacen-t side wall 24 thereof. This trough is formed of a series of longitudinally spaced dividing walls 64, 66, 68 that define a second series of compartments 70, 72, 74 and 76. As can be seen in Figure 5, the width of these compartments correspond substantially to that of compartments 54, 56, 58 and 60, respectively.
The opposite extremities 78 and 80 of the ;3~
-trough are secured to arms 82 and 84 which, i.n turn, fixedly mounted to a pair of endless chains 86, 88 mounted on associated sprockets and driven by a motor 90. The trough is upwardly moved by means of the chain, sprocket and motor assembly from a material collecting position shown in Figure 6 to a material discharging position shown in Figure 7. The top wall 20 extends a distance above this discharging position and beyond the side wall 24 to enable the displacement of the trough. A limit switch 92 serves to stop the motor to allow the discharging of the recyclable materials from the compartment of the trough into the various compartments 54, 56, 58 and 60. Means (not shown) are provided to reverse the motor to return the trough to its initial material receiving position shown in Figure 6.
Hinge points are provided at each lower corner of the frame at 100, 106, 108 and 114; they are in the shape of annular members adapted to come into registry with associated hinge points 102, 104, 110 and 112 provided at each outer extremity of the traverse beams 30 and 32 of the rear section of the understructure 12. Retaining pins 116, 118, 120 and 124 extend through corresponding pairs of hinge points to secure the box-like frame to the undertructure of the vehicle~ These retaining pins are removable as explained below.
~g~
Each of the compartments 54, 56, 58 and 60 has, at its lower part, a la-tchable door 126, 128, 130, 132 hingedly mounted -to the respective side walls 24, 26 of the vehicle.
In operation, recyclable materials collected at curbside are separated and deposited in the various compartmen-ts 70, 72, 74 and 76 of the trough. When desired, the trough is upwardly raised by actuating motor 90 causing the trough to be lifted to the discharging position shown in Figure 7 where it is stopped by the limit switch 92. The operation of the motor is then reversed to return the trough to its initial loading position. At the dumping site, pins in the hinge points of the dumping side are kept in place while the pins on the other side are removed. The cylinder 34 is actuated causing -the box to tilt about a pivot axis ex-tending through the retained pins. The appropriate doors on that side of the vehicle being unlatched, the collected materials are therefore removed from their compartmen-t and dispensed at their appropriate collecting location.
Although the invention has been described above in relation to one specific form, it will be evident to a person skilled in the art that i-t may be refined and modified in various ways. For example, the dividing walls in the box-like frame as well as in the trough can be made longitudinally adjustable to provide the flexibility of chanqing the capacity of -the compartmen-ts and to allow daily variations in the volume of materials collected. Similarly, a door could be provided on the rear wall 22 to provide a rearward discharging of the contents in the rear comparkment.
However, in such case, the hinge points would require a construction different from that shown in the present embodiment to allow for rear tilting. Still, a pair of troughs of similar construction as trough 62 could be provided on both lonqitudinal sides of the box-like frame; in which case, means similar to the drivinq means and the movinq means described above would be required to operate the addi-tional trough. It is therefore wished to have it understood that the present invention should not be limited in interpretation except b~ the terms of the following claims.

DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring to Figure 1 and 2, there is shown a vehicle, generally denoted 10, for the curbside collectlon of source separated recyclable materials.
The vehicle comprises a wheel-supported understructure 12, the front section of which receives a driver compartment 14 and the rear section of which supports a dumping unit 16.
~ J~3~
The dumping unit 16 includes a box-like frame consisting of a front wall 18, a top wall 20, a rear wall 22, a bo-ttom wall 23 (see Figure 3) and opposite side walls 24 and 26.
Referring also to E'igures 3 and 4, the understructure 12 comprises an elongated cen-trally extending frame 28 consisting of two longitudinal beams 28a and 28b having their opposite front and rear extremities fixedly connected to transverse frames 30 and 32. A cylinder 34 has its lower end pivotally connected at 36 to a frame plate 37 (see Figure 8) mounted to beams 28a and 28b and its upper end pivotally connected at 38 in a recessed area 40 of the bottom wall 23 of the frame.
Referring to Figure 5, the frame is formed of a series of longitudinally spaced dividing walls 44, ~ 46, 48, 50 and 52 that define a series of compartments ; 54, 56, 58 and 60 which may be of varying dimensions.
An elongated trough 62 extends longitudinally of the frame adjacen-t side wall 24 thereof. This trough is formed of a series of longitudinally spaced dividing walls 64, 66, 68 that define a second series of compartments 70, 72, 74 and 76. As can be seen in Figure 5, the width of these compartments correspond substantially to that of compartments 54, 56, 58 and 60, respectively.
The opposite extremities 78 and 80 of the ;3~
-trough are secured to arms 82 and 84 which, i.n turn, fixedly mounted to a pair of endless chains 86, 88 mounted on associated sprockets and driven by a motor 90. The trough is upwardly moved by means of the chain, sprocket and motor assembly from a material collecting position shown in Figure 6 to a material discharging position shown in Figure 7. The top wall 20 extends a distance above this discharging position and beyond the side wall 24 to enable the displacement of the trough. A limit switch 92 serves to stop the motor to allow the discharging of the recyclable materials from the compartment of the trough into the various compartments 54, 56, 58 and 60. Means (not shown) are provided to reverse the motor to return the trough to its initial material receiving position shown in Figure 6.
Hinge points are provided at each lower corner of the frame at 100, 106, 108 and 114; they are in the shape of annular members adapted to come into registry with associated hinge points 102, 104, 110 and 112 provided at each outer extremity of the traverse beams 30 and 32 of the rear section of the understructure 12. Retaining pins 116, 118, 120 and 124 extend through corresponding pairs of hinge points to secure the box-like frame to the undertructure of the vehicle~ These retaining pins are removable as explained below.
~g~
Each of the compartments 54, 56, 58 and 60 has, at its lower part, a la-tchable door 126, 128, 130, 132 hingedly mounted -to the respective side walls 24, 26 of the vehicle.
In operation, recyclable materials collected at curbside are separated and deposited in the various compartmen-ts 70, 72, 74 and 76 of the trough. When desired, the trough is upwardly raised by actuating motor 90 causing the trough to be lifted to the discharging position shown in Figure 7 where it is stopped by the limit switch 92. The operation of the motor is then reversed to return the trough to its initial loading position. At the dumping site, pins in the hinge points of the dumping side are kept in place while the pins on the other side are removed. The cylinder 34 is actuated causing -the box to tilt about a pivot axis ex-tending through the retained pins. The appropriate doors on that side of the vehicle being unlatched, the collected materials are therefore removed from their compartmen-t and dispensed at their appropriate collecting location.
Although the invention has been described above in relation to one specific form, it will be evident to a person skilled in the art that i-t may be refined and modified in various ways. For example, the dividing walls in the box-like frame as well as in the trough can be made longitudinally adjustable to provide the flexibility of chanqing the capacity of -the compartmen-ts and to allow daily variations in the volume of materials collected. Similarly, a door could be provided on the rear wall 22 to provide a rearward discharging of the contents in the rear comparkment.
However, in such case, the hinge points would require a construction different from that shown in the present embodiment to allow for rear tilting. Still, a pair of troughs of similar construction as trough 62 could be provided on both lonqitudinal sides of the box-like frame; in which case, means similar to the drivinq means and the movinq means described above would be required to operate the addi-tional trough. It is therefore wished to have it understood that the present invention should not be limited in interpretation except b~ the terms of the following claims.
