Vehicle for garbage collection and snow removal

The invention relates to a vehicle for collecting refuse and clearing snow-covered roads, which vehicle has a box structure to accommodate the waste.

As such, there is currently no such vehicle that is specifically designed for snow removal and, at the same time, for evacuation is set up. Rather, they are snow removal vehicles and separate vehicles for collecting waste known, each in terms of their training and operation on the intended purpose * Therefore, the municipalities and cities that are the owners of such vehicles, are often with difficulties.

It is true that box bodies for waste are provided Vehicles can be used all year round. · However, this is not the case for snow removal vehicles. Because only snow Occurs intermittently, there is therefore never the opportunity to use these vehicles economically. On the other hand, they require but relatively expensive maintenance work, so that the

Owners face a difficult financial situation.

The aim of the invention is to create a vehicle which can be used on the one hand for snow removal and on the other hand for garbage collection, so that a possible use is given throughout the year.

The invention is of particular interest if the various Devices are each operated via an identical mechanism, which is advantageously designed with regard to the mode of operation can be.

To solve this problem, it is proposed according to the invention that, in a vehicle of the type mentioned at the beginning, on the rear side of the box structure, a bracket is arranged on the a hood for collecting the waste and a sand scattering device can be mounted, which can be fixed by means of the same fastening means are, and that a snow removal device, for example a snow blower, can be attached to the front of the vehicle in a detachable manner.

Further features, details and advantages of the invention emerge from the following description of a preferred one Embodiment based on the drawing. It shows:

'Vehicle according to the invention when used to clear snow and sand scattering and

ig. 2 schematically shows a section through the rear part of the vehicle.

The vehicle used is originally a conventional vehicle 1 with a chassis 2 on which a Box or container 3 is arranged. The box structure 3 is designed in the usual way with a view to use as a container for storing waste.

Undoubtedly, a litter bin can just as easily receive and add to sand or a similar material, e.g. salt Transportation can be used. For this purpose, a flap 4 is provided in the upper area of the structure 3, which his Filling enabled. In addition, the box structure 3 is provided in its rear area with a holder 3a, which the assembly of a hood 5 (Figure 2) is allowed, which is provided with a sand spreading device.

In case the vehicle is used for the collection and removal of waste is, a hood 5 is mounted on the rear bracket 3a of the structure, which is formed in the usual way and in particular a filling screw 5a (FIG. 2). the

The hood 5 also has a slide 5b. Using of the vehicle for garbage collection, the slide 5b is closed and the screw 5a rotates in a certain direction. The compression of the waste is effected by the inclined pressure plate 10.

When using the vehicle for sand spreading, instead of the hood 5 and on the same rear bracket 3a of the box structure 3 a scattering or sand scattering device 6 with a distributor 7 (Figure 1) can be attached. The power to drive this The drive energy required for the device is taken from the same source that is also used to drive the collecting hood 5. The coupling elements are therefore identical and interchangeable.

In this way, the basic structure of the vehicle remains unchanged and it is possible to choose one or two, as required to install the other device without incurring increased costs.

It goes without saying that spreading sand only makes sense and is appropriate when the snow has been removed. to For this purpose, a removable snow-clearing device 8, for example a milling machine, of conventional design is installed at the front of the vehicle assembled. The drive of this device can be done without difficulty

take place in the usual manner directly from the engine 9 of the vehicle 1 by means of devices not shown.

According to another exemplary embodiment, a hood 5 Throw provided which at the same time the items to use of the vehicle when removing waste and when spreading sand · In this case, after filling of the bunker through the opening arranged on the roof of the box 3 4 the slide 5b on the gear surrounding the screw 5a

The housing is opened and the rotation of the latter is reversed the sand is pressed down with the help of the wall 10.

It is easy to understand that a vehicle designed in this way, which can be used for the two purposes mentioned, extremely in terms of purchase price and amortization interesting is,
