Description

Description: Thermo - garbage bin (underfloor )

The new laws to reduce the amount of household waste have led to the separation and recycling of recyclable materials and will reduce the amount of residual waste to below 40% in the coming years.

The collection of residual waste and its compostable biomass in separate waste collection containers or multi-chamber containers leads to a further reduction in the amount of residual waste.

Due to this significant reduction in the amount of residual waste, citizens must accept that the collection trips, which were previously weekly, are now only carried out every 14 days or three weeks. This leads to unpleasant smells from the residual waste, and in particular from the organic waste, particularly in the warm summer months, which are perceived as very unpleasant and are already leading to protests from citizens.

Garbage bins of the usual design made of concrete or exposed aggregate concrete with a steel door are well known. They are designed above ground as individual or row systems and are intended to accommodate MGB 110, 120 and 240 liter garbage containers. They have no insulation and heat up very quickly in summer. High temperatures develop inside such a garbage bin, which remain for a long time even overnight and accelerate the decomposition of the household garbage. The result is strong odors and unhygienic conditions for the garbage collectors.

The invention specified in claim 1 is based on the problem of preventing the effects of high outside temperatures, particularly in summer, on residual or organic waste and preventing anaerobic decomposition by cooling above the earth's temperature (+ 10 - 13 degrees). Furthermore, freezing in winter, especially of organic waste, is effectively prevented.

This is achieved by placing the thermal waste bin approximately 1.10 meters into the ground and allowing the surrounding earth temperature to be easily transferred to the interior of the thermal waste bin and thus to the organic and residual waste.

The thermal waste bin is designed on the outside in such a way that the structure of the outer walls and the floor increases the surface area to the ground and thus the heat from the interior of the thermal waste bin is dissipated more quickly and effectively.

The earth's temperature of +10-13 degrees Celsius leads to a cooling of the residual and organic waste and effectively prevents anaerobic decomposition and odor formation.

The thermal waste bin can be made of concrete, metal or plastic.

The top is closed by a fully insulated cover, which can also be designed to be driven over if required. The thermal waste bin is particularly suitable for residential areas. The waste containers are hidden in the ground and in no way affect the visual impression of a built-up property. The natural cooling means that no energy is required. A locking mechanism on the hydraulic lifting device prevents the insulated cover from being opened without authorization. The lifting hydraulics can only be operated using a key bar.

An embodiment of the invention is explained using Figures 1 to 3.

with garbage bin. Designations 1 - 12 . Figure 2 the thermo garbage bin in top view. Figure 3 the thermo garbage bin in side view in opened state and designations 1-12:

1 fully insulated cover

2 garbage containers in the thermal garbage box

3 reinforced concrete, metal, or plastic containers

4 turntables for waste container

5 Lifting platform

6 lid openers

7 Hand hydraulic pump, 8 Hydraulic cylinder

9 Operating lever (key bar)

10 guide rails

11 Soil

12 hinge for insulating cover

By operating the key rod 9, the hydraulic cylinder

8 the lifting platform 5 is brought to ground level. The fully insulated cover 1 of the TMB opens first and remains in a vertical position. The waste container 2 is rotated 180 degrees on the turntable 4 so that it can be grasped by the handles and moved from the lifting platform 5 Figure 3.

If waste container 2 is to be placed in the TMB, the procedure is reversed.

By operating the hydraulic pump 7 again using the key rod

9 the hydraulic cylinder 8 is relieved and the waste container 2 moves with the lifting structure under the floor, the TMB cover 1 closes

By removing the key bar, the thermal waste bin is closed and secured.

Advantages of the thermal waste bin:

- No unpleasant smells in summer due to cooling.

- No freezing of organic waste (wet waste) in winter.

- Invisibly installed in the ground (optical).

- Easy to use and handle.

- Protected against unauthorized filling and opening (childproof).

- Suitable for all household waste containers from 80 - 260 litres.

- No auxiliary energy, ecologically compatible.

- Modular design, suitable for series systems.

- Simple, clean, invisible.

Claims (1)

- 1 -Protection claims 1. Thermo-garbage box for storing household and organic waste containers under the floor, which is provided with cooling fins on its outer walls and floor and has a completely smooth surface on the inside for better heat dissipation - which is sealed at the top by a fully insulated lid , the insulated lid is opened and securely closed using a manual hydraulic lifting device, the hydraulic lifting frame has a turntable that allows the waste container to be turned effortlessly into the correct filling and transport position, - the hydraulic lifting mast has a closed platform which, when opened, completely fills the opening of the TMB and thus prevents accidents.
