Abstract

A container with a filling of liquid-absorbing granules (102) has a handle (104) and is constructed for pouring out the granules from the container into a waste container.

Description

The The invention relates to a container with a filling of liquid-absorbent Granules.

The Disposal of municipal waste, in particular of residual waste and organic waste, is associated with hygienic risks. Such waste contains biological degradable organic matter and water, so the prerequisite for the Multiplication of various microorganisms are given. Depending on the Life of the waste container and the temperature of the waste is different degrees fungal, so when opening of the waste container for filling from further waste, when emptying the waste container as well with downstream steps of waste processing or treatment Fungal particles, bacteria or bacterial particles are released can.

Furthermore can various components of residual waste, such as leftover meat, hygiene articles, Diaper, faeces of pet animals, egg shells etc. Carrier for infectious agents for animals and animals Be human. The proportion of meat waste and bones in household waste is in the order of magnitude estimated at up to about 3%. An increase of relevant bacterial pathogen in these meat wastes possible and therefore hygienically questionable.

When Infectious agents come, for example, bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites, for example endoparasites such as worm eggs.

Especially are big the hygienic problems with so-called biowaste bins, which are usually even in summer only emptied at longer intervals be what alike hazardous to health and can be disgusting.

Of the Invention is based on the object, the hygienic situation in waste disposal too improve.

The The object underlying the invention is in each case with the features the independent claims protection solved. preferred embodiments of the invention are in the dependent claims specified.

According to the invention is a container with a filling of liquid-absorbent Granules proposed. The container Has a hand-carrying handle and is used to dispense the granules from the container a waste container educated.

By the liquid-absorbent Granules are deprived of waste water, so that multiplication is counteracted by microorganisms. Since the container a Hand gripping handle, the granules can be conveniently poured into the waste container, for example, with one hand, holding the container by its hand-carrying handle holds and with the other hand the container easily tilts, so that the granules from a discharge opening of the container exit.

To an embodiment the invention is a wall of the container made of a plastic film, made of cardboard or cardboard. The hand-carrying handle of the container can also made of plastic, in particular of a plastic film, consist, for example, glued to a top of the container, welded or is attached by other means.

To an embodiment According to the invention, a wall of the container has a perforation for formation a discharge opening. Preferably, the perforation is arranged in the upper region of the container.

To an embodiment The invention has the container with its granulate filling a weight of the highest 8 kg, preferably about 4 kg, and includes at most 20 l, preferably about 10 liters of granules. This has the advantage that even older or frail people the container easy to transport and handle.

To an embodiment The invention consists of the granules of organic and / or mineral Substances. Preferably, the granules include silicates, such as Example, calcium hydrosilicate, calcium silicate, aluminum silicate, Calcium carbonate, sodium aluminum silicate, aluminum magnesium silicate and / or calcium aluminosilicate.

alternative or additionally The granules may also contain plastics, such as Polypropylene and / or Polyurethane.

To an embodiment The invention consists of the granules of so-called cellular concrete, the is called a gas and / or foam concrete product in granular form. For example we use a granulate of aerated waste, which in the production of aerated concrete blocks, used.

To an embodiment the invention, the granules are dried and has a residual moisture of a maximum of 5%, preferably 2% to 3% residual moisture.

To an embodiment According to the invention, the granules have a grain size between 0.1 mm and 6 mm, preferably between 0.25 mm and 4 mm.

The invention thus makes it possible to improve hygiene in waste disposal. According to the invention, the liquid-absorbing Granules interspersed in the waste container.

This can be done when the waste container is still empty. For example becomes a layer of the granulate covering the bottom of the waste container brought in.

To the Example will be filled after a batch of waste in the waste container is to waste one as possible completely covering the waste Applied layer of granules. This will be particularly effective the formation of fungi and the multiplication of microorganisms, worms and like suppressed.

in the others are preferred embodiments the invention with reference to the drawings explained in more detail. It demonstrate:

1 a schematic view of an embodiment of a container according to the invention,

2 a side view of the container of 1

3 the layered filling of granules in a waste container.

The 1 shows a bag closed on all sides 100 , The bag 100 may for example consist of a plastic film, such as polyethylene. The bag 100 is with a liquid-absorbing granules 102 filled as it is in the 1 represented by the hatching. In the embodiment considered here, it is the granules 102 aerated concrete granules, which is obtained from rejects in the production of aerated concrete blocks.

The bag 100 Contains, for example, about 10 liters of the granules 102 , which corresponds approximately to a weight of 4 kg.

At its top is the bag 100 a hand-carrying handle 104 , By means of the hand-carrying handle, the bag can 100 be transported comfortably by one person.

At its top is the bag 100 a hand-carrying handle 104 , By means of the hand-carrying handle, the bag can 100 be transported comfortably by one person.

The 2 shows a side view of the bag 100 , Like in the 2 shown, the bag has 100 in an upper area above the level of the granules 102 a perforation 106 , By breaking the perforation 106 to get a discharge opening for pouring the granules 102 out of the bag 100 , Instead of a perforation, a cut line can also be printed, for example with the instructions "cut in here" or the like.

The 3 shows an embodiment of the use of the granules 102 ,

The 3 shows a bio garbage bin 108 whose garbage can lid 110 is open. On the floor of the bio garbage bin 108 there is a granulate layer 112 by pouring out of the bag 100 has been applied. In the bio garbage bin 108 is then a batch 114 of organic waste, for example, by emptying a conventional household dustbin, filled.

Immediately after filling the batch 114 of organic waste in the bio-waste bin 108 is another granule layer 116 of the granules 102 been applied. This is followed by another batch 118 of organic waste, in turn, with a granular layer 120 of the granules 102 is covered. For this purpose, the granules 102 from the discharge opening of the bag 100 by inclining the bag 100 on the batch 118 of organic waste. This can conveniently be done so that a person with one hand holds the bag 100 on the hand-carrying handle 104 holds on while holding the bag 100 with her other hand in the in the 3 shown inclined position tilts. After the granule layer 120 a thickness of about 1 cm has been applied, the garbage bin lid 110 closed again.

The introduction of the granule layers 112 . 116 . 120 , ... between the organic waste has the advantage that the biological waste liquid is extracted particularly efficiently, so that the proliferation of microorganisms, fungi and the like is particularly effectively inhibited.
