Abstract

The invention relates to a refuse collector with an inner container and a two-shelled folding cover whose cover parts are pivotable about a lower horizontal axis. When the two shells are opened, the entire open cross-section, or virtually the entire cross-section, of the inner container is to be exposed without structurally costly and additional opening means, and applying only slight force, the closing of the shells also taking place in a simple manner. To this end, each shell-like cover part (1, 2) can be pivoted about its own axis (A, A'), located in the vicinity of its outer edge, the two cover parts (1, 2) are also connected to each other by a coupling (4) which, when one cover part is pivoted, simultaneously pivots the other cover part, and a pedal strip (17, 18) or the like is arranged on each of the two cover parts (1, 2). <IMAGE>

Description

Wie ferner insbesondere aus F i g. 3 erkennbar ist, überragt der untere, mit einer Verstärkung 9 versehene Rand der beiden Mantelteile 1, 2 allseitig den Rand 10 des Bodens 3, so daß die Mantelteile 1,2 eine Schwenkbewegung aus ihrer in F i g. 1 dargestellten Lage in die Stellung nach Fig. 3 ausführen können. As also in particular from FIG. 3 is recognizable, towers above the lower edge of the two shell parts 1, 2 provided with a reinforcement 9 on all sides the edge 10 of the bottom 3, so that the shell parts 1,2 a pivoting movement the end their in F i g. 1 position shown in the position of FIG. 3 can run.

Die beiden Kupplungen 4 zu beiden Seiten der Mantelteile 1, 2 bestehen aus einem Gabelstück 11, das an dem Mantelteil 1 im unteren Abschnitt des Randes lb befestigt ist. Dieses Gabelstück ist im rechten Winkel zu dem vertikalen Rand 1b des Mantelteils 1 angeordnet und trägt in gleicher Richtung ein Langloch 12 derart, daß durch es ein Zapfen 13 ragen und in ihm gleiten kann, der im unteren Abschnitt des Randes 2b des Mantelteils 2 nach außen ragend angeordnet ist. Bei der Ausführungsform nach F i g. 1 hat das Langloch 12 gegen sein, dem Mantelteil 1 abgekehrtes Ende hin ein oder zwei gegeneinander gerichtete Begrenzungs- oder Anschlagsansätze 14, die zwischen sich einen Schlitz 15 bilden, der größer ist als der Durchmesser des Zapfens 13 (Fig. 1). The two couplings 4 on both sides of the shell parts 1, 2 exist from a fork piece 11, which is attached to the shell part 1 in the lower portion of the edge lb is attached. This fork piece is at right angles to the vertical edge 1b of the shell part 1 is arranged and carries an elongated hole 12 in the same direction in such a way that that a pin 13 can protrude through it and slide in it, which is in the lower section of the edge 2b of the casing part 2 is arranged protruding outward. In the embodiment according to FIG. 1 has the elongated hole 12 against its, the shell part 1 facing away from the end one or two limiting or stop approaches 14 directed against one another, which form a slot 15 between them, which is larger than the diameter of the Pin 13 (Fig. 1).

Bei der Ausführungsform nach F i g. 3 ist das Langloch 12 durch einen Abschnitt 16 geschlossen, wobei der Zapfen 13 mit einem Gewinde in den Abschnitt 2b des Mantelteils 2 einschraubbar ist - Die gegeneinander gerichteten Ansätze 14 wie der Abschnitt 16 bilden Anschläge, um die Schwenkbewegung der beiden Mantelteile 1,2 beim Öffnen derselben zu begrenzen. In the embodiment according to FIG. 3 is the slot 12 through a Section 16 closed, with the pin 13 threaded into the section 2b of the casing part 2 can be screwed in - the lugs 14 directed towards one another like the section 16 form stops to the pivoting movement of the two shell parts 1.2 when opening the same limit.

Jeder der beiden Mantelteile 1,2 trägt an der Seite 1a, 2a des Sammlers und damit parallel zu den Schwenkachsen A, A 'und den beiden Zapfen 13 der Kupplungen 4 je eine Trittleiste 17, 18, mit deren Hilfe wahlweise von der rechten oder von der linken Seite in F i g. 1 und 3 eine der beiden Mantelteile 1, 2 durch Niedertreten verschwenkt werden kann, wobei auch der zweite Mantelteil geöffnet wird. Um den Trittleisten 17, 18 eine Schwenkbewegung in Richtung der Pfeile S in F i g. 1 zu erlauben, ruht der Boden 3 auf Leisten 19 oder Füßen. Each of the two shell parts 1,2 carries on the side 1a, 2a of the collector and thus parallel to the pivot axes A, A 'and the two pins 13 of the couplings 4 each a step rail 17, 18, with the help of which you can choose from the right or from the left in FIG. 1 and 3 one of the two shell parts 1, 2 by stepping down can be pivoted, the second shell part is also opened. To the Step strips 17, 18 a pivoting movement in the direction of the arrows S in F i g. 1 to allow, the floor 3 rests on strips 19 or feet.

Beim Verschwenken der beiden Mantelteile 1, 2 gelangen diese in unterschiedliche Winkelstellungen, wie dies aus F i g. 3 erkennbar ist. Beim Öffnen und Schließen gleiten die Zapfen 13 der Kupplungen 4 an einer der beiden parallelen Begrenzungskanten 20, 21 des Langloches 12 bis an die Ansätze 14 oder den Abschnitt 16 bzw. die gegenüberliegende gekrümmte Begrenzungswand 22 des Langloches. When the two casing parts 1, 2 are pivoted, they come into different positions Angular positions, as shown in FIG. 3 can be seen. When opening and closing slide the pins 13 of the couplings 4 on one of the two parallel delimiting edges 20, 21 of the elongated hole 12 up to the lugs 14 or the section 16 or the opposite curved boundary wall 22 of the elongated hole.

Das Öffnen und Schließen des Sammlers gestaltet sich insofern einfach, als die Trittleisten 17, 18 beim Öffnen nicht vollständig niedergetreten werden müssen, vielmehr klappen die beiden Mantelteile nach Zurücklegen eines bestimmten Winkels aus der Verschlußstellung selbsttätig in ihre in F i g. 3 wiedergegebene Stellung. Zum Schließen vollzieht sich das gleiche im umgekehrten Sinne; es bedarf nur etwa der Hälfte der Schwenkbewegung, wonach die beiden Mantelteile 1, 2 sich selbsttätig in die in F i g. 1 wiedergegebene Stellung bewegen. Opening and closing the collector is easy, when the tread strips 17, 18 are not fully trodden down when opening must, rather, the two jacket parts fold after covering a certain one Angle from the closed position automatically into its in F i g. 3 reproduced Position. For closing, the same thing happens in the opposite sense; it requires only about half of the pivoting movement, after which the two shell parts 1, 2 automatically into the in F i g. 1 position shown.

Die beiden Mantelteile 1, 2 können durch eine Feder miteinander verbunden sein, die beim Öffnen gespannt wird und die nach dem Loslassen der einen niedergetretenen Leiste 19 die Mantelteile wieder in ihre Stellung nach Fig. 1 bringt. The two shell parts 1, 2 can be connected to one another by a spring which is tense when opening and which is trodden down after letting go of the one Bar 19 brings the jacket parts back into their position according to FIG.

Das Tragen des Sammlers wird durch die beiden Handgriffe 23, 24 erleichtert, die wie aus F i g. 1 erkennbar ist, in geschlossenem Zustand der beiden Mantelteile an ihren nahe beieinanderliegenden Griffteilen 25 erfaßt werden können. Carrying the collector is made easier by the two handles 23, 24, as shown in FIG. 1 can be seen in the closed state of the two shell parts can be detected at their closely spaced handle parts 25.

Aus F i g. 5 ist erkennbar, daß bei geöffneten Mantelteilen 1, 2 der obere Querschnitt des auf dem Boden 3 des Sammlers ruhenden Innenbehälters 28 freigegeben ist. Statt eines Behälters, wie in F i g. 5 dargestellt, kann ein Innenbehälter angewendet werden, der einen Au- ßenumfang aufweist, wie er in gestrichelter Linie mit 28' erkennbar ist. Auch hier ist der gesamte Einwurfquerschnitt des Behälters 28 durch die Öffnungsweite 26 (Fig. 3 und 5) der Mantelteile an deren oberen Kante 1c und 2c freigegeben. From Fig. 5 it can be seen that when the shell parts 1, 2 the upper cross section of the inner container 28 resting on the bottom 3 of the collector is released. Instead of a container, as in FIG. 5, an inner container can be applied, which is an au- has ßenircumference, as shown in dashed lines with 28 'can be recognized. Here, too, is the entire throw-in cross-section of the container 28 through the opening 26 (Fig. 3 and 5) of the shell parts at their upper edge 1c and 2c released.

Die beiden Mantelteile 1, 2 sind gleichartig; auch ihre Beschläge, das heißt, die Handgriffe 23, 24 wie auch die Trittleisten 17, 18 sind von gleicher Form. - Um ein Schließen der Mantelteile 1,2 ebenfalls mit der Fußspitze zu bewirken, sind den Trittleisten Hebeleisten 17a, 18a im Abstand zugeordnet. Die beiden Leistenarten können aus einem einteiligen Profilstück gebildet sein. The two shell parts 1, 2 are of the same type; also their fittings, that is, the handles 23, 24 as well as the step rails 17, 18 are of the same type Shape. - In order to close the jacket parts 1, 2 also with the tip of the foot, are assigned to the step strips lever strips 17a, 18a at a distance. The two types of last can be formed from a one-piece profile piece.

Die Kupplung der beiden Mantelteile, zu deren gemeinsamen und gleichzeitigen Verschwenken kann auch durch eine starr an dem einen Mantelteil befestigte Stange mit endseitigen Verstärkungen an ihrer Ober-und Unterseite bestehen, die gegen entsprechend angeordnete Nocken, Vorsprünge des zweiten Mantelteils zur Anlage kommen. The coupling of the two shell parts, to their common and simultaneous Pivoting can also be done by a rod rigidly attached to one shell part with end reinforcements on their top and bottom, which are against accordingly arranged cams, projections of the second shell part come to rest.

Während aus F i g. 1 die Ausbildung und Anordnung der Handgriffe 23, 24 erkennbar ist, daß der Sammler wie ein Koffer einhändig, drehmomentlos und kippfrei tragbar ist, läßt F i g. 3 erkennen, daß die auseinandergeklappten Mantelteile 1,2 dreieckförmige Abschnitte der gegenüberliegenden Seitenwände des Innenbehälters bzw. deren oberen Rand freilassen, wodurch der Innenbehälter an diesen Teilen zum Einsetzen in oder Herausnehmen aus dem Sammler bequem ergriffen werden kann. While from FIG. 1 the design and arrangement of the handles 23, 24 it can be seen that the collector is one-handed, torque-free and like a suitcase can be carried without tilting, F i g. 3 recognize that the unfolded jacket parts 1.2 triangular sections of the opposite side walls of the inner container or leave the upper edge free, whereby the inner container on these parts for Insertion in or removal from the collector can be easily grasped.

DE-OS 27 11 552 is a foot-operated, standing waste container known, which consists of an inner container forming the waste container and this one compared to relatively vertically movable coat and a pedal device consists in order to adjust the inner container in relation to the jacket. This well-known waste container A hinged lid is associated with a hinge on the back of the container is pivotable. In this as in other known waste bins with a hinged lid it follows that the lid only when using a complex actuation lever assembly and the application of a considerable opening force up to its vertical opening position can be brought, in which the cross section of the inner container at the upper edge of the container is fully released. - DE-AS 2642524 is a waste container Essentially similar folding case for floor waste known, which has a cubic insert container has and is intended in particular for the recovery of dog excrement.

In relation to these known containers, there is the object of the invention in improving the collector according to the generic term of the main claim, that when the two jacket parts are opened, the entire or approximately the entire opening cross-section of the inner container without structurally complex and additional opening means and is released with the application of only a small force, with the closing the shell parts can be done in a simple manner, the collector is easy to handle, and the inner container can be conveniently inserted into and removed from the collector is.

To solve this problem, the invention provides the features of the main claim before. The features of the subclaims are used for improvement and further development the subject of the main claim.

Even a relatively small amount of swiveling out of the two casing parts of the collector can achieve an opening that covers the entire cross-section of the inner container releases. In order to bring about the complete opening of the shell parts, a weak one is sufficient Step down the step bar, as the jacket parts over the rest of their opening path pivot yourself. The same applies to the closing process. - Are the coat parts connected by weak tension springs, the closing process takes place automatically. The closed collector can be easily transported because the two jacket parts each have a handle, as is known from briefcases.
