Abstract

The collection container (10) comprises a side collar (11) that is provided with downward opened pockets (12). A lid (13) is swung upwards around a pivotal axis (14) and is pivoted around a pivotal axis (15) with a component of the side collar away to rear portion (17) and is moved by pivoting around the pivotal axis (14). The side collar is arranged parallel to both the pivotal axes. An independent claim is included for disposal vehicle.

Description

The invention relates to an emptying into a disposal vehicle collecting container for receiving waste, recyclables or the like, wherein the container at least on one side a collar with downwardly open pockets - such as a comb strip or Diamond recordings of a disposal vehicle - according to the preamble of claim 1 ,

In the collection of household waste, industrial waste, residues that have passed through a recycling plant, paper, slag or other aggregates or similar materials provided in solid containers or bags increasingly efficiency-enhanced disposal is required, with the possibility of the recorded materials with minimized Collect and transport staff and time. For example, very large containers are desired, which have a high volume and therefore relatively rarely have to be emptied.

Large containers are known which have lateral loops and can be raised by threading the arms of a disposal vehicle. For this purpose, however, on the one hand on both sides of the container space required, on the other hand, a special disposal vehicle must be used. Therefore, for many applications such collection containers are used which have a collar with downwardly open pockets for engagement of support means. In these pockets can then intervene, for example, a comb strip, several diamond shots or similar support means of a vehicle. The container can also be laterally adjacent to a wall or other containers, so that the space utilization is optimized. In addition, such support means of the disposal vehicle can be easily used for smaller containers, so that such a disposal vehicle is versatile and does not require special gripping arms for very large containers.

It is - especially for large containers with a volume above the usual 1.1 cbm - desirable despite the then very heavy lid to ensure easy and complete container emptying into a disposal vehicle even under difficult conditions such as a wet or frozen filling.

The invention solves this problem by a collecting container having the features of claim 1 and by a disposal vehicle having the features of claim 15. Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention are specified in claims 2 to 14 and 16 to 17.

The invention is characterized in that the collecting container has a collar with downwardly open pockets and at least one cover which can be swung up about a first pivot axis and which is pivotable about a second pivot axis with a component away from the collar to the rear, wherein at Pivoting to the rear of the first pivot axis is mitbeweglich, created a good solution for gripping even large containers without special vehicle, with the various container opening options, the emptying is easier. In particular, the container at the same time swivel upwards about the first pivot axis, that is to say with a container turned almost over the head with one component downwards, and at the same time with the component being pivoted backwards around the second pivot axis. The fact that the container is held by engaging in the pockets support means and thus no lateral arms are required, the disposal vehicle can easily a lateral boundary of the pouring, such as upper edges of walls of the pouring or similar rails for pushing the lid about the second pivot axis be used. Such edges or rails then come automatically when lifting and turning the sump in engagement with this, so that the lid opening is forcibly with a hundred percent reliability.

The collar can be continuous or interrupted and is arranged below a lower edge of the lid and thus parallel to said pivot axes. As a result, a disposal vehicle can grip and lift such a container on only one side of the container that is intended to lift the vehicle. Transversely, no support arms of the vehicle must attack the container. Such support arms are therefore unnecessary. Likewise, on the container on the transverse sides any carrying straps, pins or the like unnecessary, which would have to exercise a carrying function. The transverse sides can therefore remain completely free for the cover control.

For a simple and wear-resistant in long-term use collection container, the second pivot axis is advantageous container-resistant.

In particular, the movement of the first pivot axis about the second by likewise movable and projecting from the container outwardly pin is controllable. Then, during emptying, they can easily and forcibly come into contact with vehicle-side rails or edges by their lateral protrusion and thus displace the cover about the second pivot axis.

Conveniently, the pins are arranged on lateral links, which are movable about the container-fixed pivot axis and hold the first pivot axis between them. The first pivot axis can then be above the container interior and allow turning a gravity-driven opening of the lid.

If in each case in view of the transverse side of a pin, a puncture point of the first and a puncture point of the second pivot axis lie in the corners of a triangle of the handlebar, the handlebar can form a flat and stable and structurally simple geometry, for example in the form of a vertically arranged and in view from the side of triangular sheet metal.

If the handlebars are movable by striking the pins on vehicle-side opening rails during emptying of the collecting container with a component to the rear, opens by this forced movement of the handlebar, the lid forcibly about the second pivot axis, the movement of the lid around the first pivot axis remains possible. In particular, thus, a superimposed lid opening take place, in which at the same time the lid about the second pivot axis is aufbeweglich during opening of the lid about the first pivot axis or is open, so that the opening achieved is particularly large and fast and effective emptying even with problematic Filling results.

If the opening movement of the lid about the first pivot axis during the turning of the container is gravity-driven, no further measures are required for this purpose.

Especially with very large storage containers, in which the - u. U. very heavy - lid for emptying has a high-ending outer, located near the collar edge, it may be helpful for the filling when the container on the side opposite the collar a feed side with at least a second lid and / or a filler shaft and / or the like.

In this case, the lower edge of the second lid, the feed tube and / or the like can be lower than the opposite collar.

In particular, the collecting container for high efficiency on a collecting space of more than 1.5 cbm volume, in particular of 2.3 cbm volume. Also, a larger volume is possible, about 3.2 cbm.

If a disposal vehicle is provided for emptying of such collecting container, wherein the pouring is associated with a fixed structure in operation, the at least on two sides edge rails for cooperation with lateral pins of a container to be emptied, the supply is facilitated just very large container. The solid structure may extend from the pouring opening upwards, so that also for a very large vessels favorable Einschüttwinkel is possible.

In particular, the rails are formed on upper edges of upright walls of the structure. As a result, no separate structures must be provided for the rails, but these can be constructively very simple as upper edges of walls, which also serve as foreclosures to the outside.

Particularly advantageous is the structure at least partially covered by a movable protective cover, which is designed so that the edge rails of the structure in a first open position of the protective cover are open, so that in this first open position, the emptying of the largest possible container is possible.

If the protective hood itself is provided with movable lateral rails arranged below an upper side of the protective hood for cooperation with cones of medium-sized containers, in particular 1.1 cbm containers, it can facilitate the pouring of such containers in a further function and, in particular, their swiveling lid Open and hold open by interaction with the pins.

In this case, in a further function, the protective cover in its closed position cover only a part of the pouring opening and thus form a stop edge for small containers to be emptied, in particular two-wheeled containers.

Thus, containers of very different sizes can be emptied from the same disposal vehicle. Thus, in the closed position of the guard allows the emptying of two-wheeled vessels, in the first open position, the emptying of the largest possible container (for example, 2.3 cbm) and in the second open position, the emptying medium-sized container (for example, 1.1 cbm).

All containers can be picked up and held by means of a comb strip or a similar single-sided receiving unit. Laterally the vessel-bordering arms are not required. The rails of the structure or the rails of the protective hood can then act undisturbed on such lateral pins that can press and hold a lid of the container for emptying.

The superimposed opening movement of the lid about two axes also ensures that the lid does not dive so deep into the vehicle and therefore can not collide with a local shaft or other parts.

Further advantages and features of the invention will become apparent from partially illustrated in the drawings and described below embodiments of the subject invention.

In the drawing shows:

1 an exemplary container with two lids in a perspective view obliquely from the side,

2 the container after 1 in a perspective view substantially from the loading side,

3 a schematic side view of an exemplary disposal vehicle - designed here as a side loader - with the possibility for emptying of various containers,

4 a perspective representation, viewed from obliquely laterally from the front, of the drawn-out pouring opening and its stationary structure, whose peripheral rails interact with lateral pins of a large container to be emptied, which is shown here in an over-head position during its emptying;

5 a similar view as 4 , but seen from a different angle from behind,

The in 1 illustrated exemplary container 10 is used to hold residues, recyclables or the like and is in the raised position and at least a little way over head ( 4 ) in a disposal vehicle 1 emptied. To enable this lifting and emptying, points the sump 10 a collar at least on one side 11 with downwardly open pockets 12 on. In addition, the collection container 10 at his collar 11 facing longitudinal side at least one cover 13 on, around a first pivot axis 14 in the direction of the arrow 16 can be swung upwards and around a second pivot axis 15 with a component from the collar 11 away back in the direction of the arrow 17 is pivotable.

The second pivot axis 15 is container fixed, so that a pivoting of the lid 13 around this axis 15 the first pivot axis 14 is mitbeweglich.

The collar 11 does not have to be continuous over the entire longitudinal side, but may also have interruptions. He stands here parallel to the two mutually parallel pivot axes 14 and 15 of the lid 13 and the lower and front edges of the lid 13 adjacent. This long side of the container 10 does not necessarily have to be longer than its lateral sides.

Next includes the container 10 to transversely outwardly projecting pins 18 , which also around the container-fixed axis of rotation 15 are pivotable and about the movement of the first pivot axis 14 for the second 15 is controllable. This control can when emptying into a disposal vehicle described in more detail below 1 solely by contact of the pins 18 with parts of the disposal vehicle 1 forcibly.

To make this possible, the pins are 18 on side handlebars 19 arranged, each about the container fixed pivot axis 15 are movable and the first pivot axis between them 14 hold. The handlebars 19 Therefore, project beyond the height of the container body and thus allow that also the first pivot axis 14 can be arranged in an elevated position above the body '.

The driver 19 connects the pins 18 with the first 14 and second pivot axis 15 functional, in each case in view of the transverse side of a pin 18 , a puncture point of the first pivot axis 14 and a puncture point of the second pivot axis 15 in the corners of a triangle of the handlebar 19 lie, as in the 1 and 2 becomes clear. The driver 19 can (not necessarily) be designed as a flat triangular, upright standing sheet metal part.

The cones 18 therefore continue to protrude transversely outward than the handlebars 19 , By striking the pins 18 to vehicle-side opening rails 20 . 21 when turning over the raised collection container 1 during emptying are therefore the handlebars 19 around the container-fixed axle 15 in the direction of the arrow 17 movable backwards with one component. This is also the first pivot axis 14 moved backwards so that the lid 13 in the turned position diagonally above and behind the collar 11 forcibly "postponed".

During this up movement of the lid 13 around the second pivot axis 15 is at the same time the lid by its gravity around the first pivot axis 14 in the direction of the arrow 16 immobile or already open. This automatic lid opening around the first pivot axis 14 takes place, because by turning the container, the focus of the lid 13 removed from the body.

The collection container 1 includes in its body in particular a collection space of more than 1.5 cbm volume. Here the container covers 1 For example, a collection room of 2.3 cbm volume and still remains alone on a comb bar or similar from below into the pockets 19 engaging intake 8th of the vehicle 1 liftable and reversible.

The container may be made entirely or partially of plastic or in particular of steel or aluminum sheet.

Especially with such large containers, in which the closed lid 13 with his collar 11 facing lower edge often lies much more than a meter above the ground, is the filling of the container 1 through the opened lid 13 often difficult. Keeping the lid open 13 requires a fairly high force. Therefore, it is often convenient, as shown here, when the sump 10 on his collar 11 opposite side a feed side with at least a second lid 22 and / or a filling shaft and / or the like. Here is a manual about a likewise container-fixed own axis 23 hinged and lockable for emptying second lid 22 provided, which may also consist of a lightweight plastic. The outer edge 24 of the lid 22 , which can also form its lower edge, lies favorably at a few to several tens of centimeters lower than the opposite collar 11 , The filling through this second lid 22 is therefore easier.

Especially with a very large storage container 10 who achieves a correspondingly great weight in the filled state, this at least on his collar 11 be provided on the opposite side below with rollers, so that a gripping and lifting arm 7 of the disposal vehicle 1 the container 10 can attract to itself.

Such a container 10 Can via a disposal vehicle, as in 3 roughly schematically shown, emptied. Such a vehicle 1 comprises at least one receptacle 2 for from the sump 10 waste or recyclables taken over, for example, household waste, industrial waste, residues that have passed through a recycling plant, paper, glass, slag or other aggregates or similar materials.

Furthermore, the vehicle includes 1 at least one movable feeding device 3 for these substances, the feeding device 3 for over-head emptying of particular refuse containers 10 and forwarding the received Guts in the direction of the vehicle-mounted receptacle 2 is trained.

According to the only schematic drawing, the vehicle 1 designed as a so-called side loader, so that here a feeder 3 side of the vehicle 1 standing containers 10 can grab.

The side loader shown here comprises at least one upwardly movable support arm 7 with one or more receptacle (s) 8th for either two-wheeled and / or four-wheeled vessels 10 , As shown 3 includes the receiving device 8th a comb strip. Also Diamond recordings or the like are possible. The recording device (s) 8th can or can each have at least one collar 11 a male refuse bin 10 - or more containers 4 next to each other - under attack. By lifting the support arm 7 then can the garbage containers 10 overhead in the feeder 3 be emptied, such as in 4 for the bulk container 10 is shown.

This is the feeding device 3 with a single or multi-part pouring opening 9 provided for receiving good to be disposed of. This pouring opening 9 can overall form a large, for example rectangular opening or be divided into several partial openings.

To forward the poured good and into the receptacle 2 to be able to transport is at least one about an axis 4 swiveling piston 5 intended. In a separation of the receptacle 2 can be provided for waste separation two rotary piston.

The pouring opening 9 is at the top of a stationary establishment in operation 6 associated, at least on two sides - here at its front relative to the direction of travel F and rear side - edge rails 20 . 21 for interaction with lateral pins 18 a container to be emptied, in particular a large container 10 , includes.

According to the drawing, these rails are to avoid complex additional constructions and material savings 20 . 21 at the upper edges of upright walls 25 . 26 of the construction 13 educated. They can, for example, umgekantete or flanged edge reinforcements of these walls 25 . 26 of the construction 6 form.

The raised here large container 10 is also above the comb bar 8th or similar receiving device liftable, wherein additionally below the engagement of the comb strip 8th at the back of the large container 10 Bags 27 are provided in the hook parts 28 engage and thereby a second, parallel locking plane for the large container 10 at the height of a stop rail 8a below the comb strip 8th create. Also these bags 27 are the same longitudinal side as the collar 11 assigned and can, for example, at the corners to the transverse sides are (not mandatory).

Not just the mentioned large containers 10 in the vehicle 1 To be able to empty, but also smaller four-wheel container (eg 1.1 cbm) or two-wheeled container (eg 60 to 360 liters content), is the structure 6 at least partially by a movable protective hood 31 Coverable, which allows different opening conditions. According to the drawing, the protective hood 31 on the construction 6 hinged and a built-axle 32 can be swiveled or locked in different positions.

The protective hood 31 is for this purpose of two lateral cylinders 33 . 34 up and is zuusteuerbar, which are each designed as a double cylinder with two pistons, wherein in the first open position for emptying the large container 10 each extended both pistons and in the second open position for the emptying of medium-sized containers only one piston is extended.

In the first, full open position of the guard 31 after the 4 and 5 lie the marginal rails 20 . 21 of the construction 6 open. They are with it for the lateral cones 18 of the large container 10 accessible, so that in the over-head emptying of the container 10 can hit the rails and thereby the lid 13 around the container-fixed axle 15 over the held it and firmly with the lid 13 connected handlebars 19 postpone. In particular, as described, this cover 13 a combined swing-thrust cover, on the one hand only by gravity around the movable axis 14 on the other hand, the movable axis 14 about the interaction of the pins 18 with the rails 20 . 21 around the container-fixed second pivot axis 15 in the direction of the arrow 17 is relocated. The lid 13 can open much further through this superimposed opening movement than by a pure panning. In addition, the lid 13 pulled upwards so that it is less deep in the vehicle in emptying position 1 penetrates.

In its closed position forms the protective hood 31 with her the pivot axis 32 facing away, elastic edge of a stop edge 35 for small containers to be emptied, in particular two-wheeled containers.

To switch between the recording of large containers 10 on the one hand and two-wheeled containers on the other hand, so only the protective hood 31 about retracting the pistons 33 . 34 be swung.

To further increase the flexibility is the protective hood 31 even with moving and below a top of the guard 31 arranged lateral rails 29 . 30 for cooperation with pins medium-sized containers, in particular 1.1 cbm container provided.

In the second open position, in which the pivot angle of the guard 31 is significantly smaller than in the first open position, since only one of the pistons of the cylinder 33 . 34 is extended, are the mitbeweglichen rails 29 . 30 the protective cover 31 for engagement with pegs of medium sized containers available.

In both mentioned open positions, the guard also forms a safeguard against overturning of the turned container during its emptying.

Like the big containers 10 Also, the medium-sized containers on the comb strip or similar recording 8th held so that the lateral pins are also used only to open the respective lid of the container and the container is not worn here.

The mobile rails 29 . 30 the protective cover 31 are closer together than the side rails 20 . 21 of the construction 6 , This allows the moving rails 29 . 30 with closed protective hood 31 in the construction 6 dive in and are then invisible. In addition, they do not disturb the emptying of small containers in this position, which can be used individually or in pairs.
