Definitions

  • the invention relates to a lifting and tipping device for emptying waste containers of different dimensions, which are essentially rectangular in cross-section, into a collecting container, e.g. for a refuse collection vehicle, with a power-driven lifting carriage carrying a swivel basket and with recesses arranged in the upper end region of the swivel basket wall as receptacles and drivers for the mouth-side edges of the refuse containers, which protrude outward beyond the refuse container walls and are open in a U-shape at the bottom.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Hub-Kippvorrichtung zum Entleeren von im Querschnitt im wesentlichen rechteckigen Müllgefässen unterschiedlicher Abmessungen in einen Sammelbehälter, z.B. für ein Müllsammelfahrzeug, mit einem einen Schwenkkorb tragenden, kraftangetriebenen Hubschlitten und mit im oberen Endbereich der Schwenkkorbwand angeordneten Ausnehmungen als Aufnahmen und Mitnehmer für die mündungsseitigen Ränder der Müllgefässe, welche etwa krempenartig nach aussen über die Müllgefässwandungen vorstehen und nach unten U-förmig offen sind.The invention relates to a lifting and tipping device for emptying waste containers of different dimensions, which are essentially rectangular in cross-section, into a collecting container, e.g. for a refuse collection vehicle, with a power-driven lifting carriage carrying a swivel basket and with recesses arranged in the upper end region of the swivel basket wall as receptacles and drivers for the mouth-side edges of the refuse containers, which protrude outward beyond the refuse container walls and are open in a U-shape at the bottom.

Eine solche Hub-Kippvorrichtung zum Entleeren von im Querschnitt im wesentlichen rechtekkigen Müllgefässen unterschiedlicher Abmessungen ist durch die DE-AS 2146 653 bekannt. Bei ihr besteht die Aufnahmevorrichtung aus einer oben gelegenen Greifschiene, die zusammen mit der unteren Abstützung sich im wesentlichen über die Breite der Einschüttöffnung des Sammelbehälters erstreckt und zur Verriegelung des Müllgefässes beim Anheben mit einer Winkelschiene als Gegenlager für den Müllgefässrand zusammenwirkt. Damit die Greifschiene den Mündungsrand unterschiedlich breiter bzw. langer Müllgefässe erfassen kann, ist sie über ihre ganze Länge mit nach oben ragenden Klauen und dazwischen befindlichen Ausnehmungen versehen.Such a lifting and tilting device for emptying waste containers of different dimensions, which are essentially rectangular in cross section, is known from DE-AS 2146 653. In her, the receiving device consists of a gripping rail located at the top, which together with the lower support extends essentially over the width of the pouring opening of the collecting container and interacts to lock the waste container when it is raised with an angle rail as a counter bearing for the edge of the waste container. So that the gripping rail can grasp the rim of the mouth of differently wide or long garbage containers, it is provided over its entire length with claws projecting upwards and recesses located in between.

Die Wirkungsweise dieser bekannten Hub-Kippvorrichtung ist insofern unbefriedigend, als die Müllgefässe während des Hub-Kippvorgangs nur an ihrem oberen Mündungsrand von der Greifschiene erfasst werden. Hierdurch sind sie bei einer plötzlich auftretenden Störung am Kraftantrieb nicht gegen Herabfallen gesichert. Ausserdem wird der Mündungsrand durch das Gewicht des im Müllgefäss befindlichen Mülls stark beansprucht, so dass er leicht überlastet und zerstört werden kann. Auch besteht die Gefahr, dass bei ungenauer Ausrichtung der Müllgefässe die Klauen der Greifschiene auf die Versteifungsstege des Mündungsrandes der Müllgefässe auftreffen und diese dann beschädigen. Nachteilig ist ferner, dass bei der bekannten Hub-Kippvorrichtung für die Schwenkbewegung der Aufnahmevorrichtung aus der Ruhelage vor dem Einrasten derselben in den Mündungsrand des Müllgefässes eine zweite Ruhelage benötigt wird, um in dieser eine genaue Ausrichtung des Müllgefässes zu ermöglichen. Die Arbeitsweise ist daher umständlich.The operation of this known lifting and tipping device is unsatisfactory insofar as the waste containers are only gripped by the gripping rail at their upper mouth edge during the lifting and tipping process. As a result, they are not secured against falling in the event of a sudden malfunction in the power drive. In addition, the rim of the mouth is heavily stressed by the weight of the waste in the waste container, so that it can easily be overloaded and destroyed. There is also the risk that if the garbage containers are not aligned correctly, the claws of the gripping rail will hit the stiffening webs of the rim of the mouth of the garbage containers and then damage them. A further disadvantage is that in the known lifting and tilting device for the pivoting movement of the receiving device from the rest position before it is snapped into the mouth of the waste container, a second rest position is required in order to enable the waste container to be aligned precisely. The way of working is therefore cumbersome.

Durch die DE-OS 2251 890 gehört auch schon eine Hub-Kippvorrichtung für Müllgefässe verschiedener Grösse zum Stand der Technik, deren die Müllgefässe erfassender, einen Schwenkkorb tragender Hubschlitten mit im Abstand nebeneinander vorgesehenen, verschiebbaren, zweiteiligen Klemmvorrichtungen ausgestattet ist. Jede einzelne der zweiteiligen Klemmvorrichtungen ist dabei so ausgeführt, dass sie ein Müllgefäss kleiner oder mittlerer Abmessung erfassen und festlegen kann. Beide Klemmvorrichtungen gemeinsam wirken hingegen im Bedarfsfall mit Müllgefässen grosser Abmessung zusammen.DE-OS 2251 890 also includes a lifting and tipping device for waste containers of various sizes, the lifting container of which is equipped with a swivel basket and is equipped with sliding, two-part clamping devices which are spaced apart from one another. Each of the two-part clamping devices is designed so that it can capture and fix a small or medium-sized waste container. Both clamping devices, on the other hand, work together with large-sized waste containers if necessary.

Bei dieser bekannten Hub-Kippvorrichtung sind am oberen Ende des Schwenkkorbs fachartige Ausnehmungen mit zur Vorderseite des Schwenkkorbes hin angeordneten Stützleisten vorgesehen, die als Halterung und Zentrierung für den Eingriff in den Mündungsrand der Müllgefässe dient.In this known lifting and tipping device, compartment-like recesses are provided at the upper end of the swivel basket with support strips arranged towards the front of the swivel basket, which serve as a holder and centering device for engaging in the mouth of the waste containers.

Auch bei dieser Hub-Kippvorrichtung liegt der Nachteil vor, dass leicht Beschädigungen oder gar Zerstörungen an den Mündungsrändern der Müllbehälter, insbesondere als Folge von Überlastungen, hervorgerufen werden können.This lift-tilt device also has the disadvantage that it is easy to cause damage or even destruction at the mouth edges of the refuse containers, in particular as a result of overloading.

Auch durch die DE-AS 1231616 und die DE-AS 1947821 sind Hub-Kippvorrichtungen bekannt, deren Klemmvorrichtungen für die Müllgefässe in ähnlicher Weise wirken wie die Klemmvorrichtungen nach der DE-OS 2251890. Hier können daher Beschädigungen oder Zerstörungen an den Mündungsrändern der Müllgefässe durch die Klemmvorrichtungen ebenfalls nicht sicher vermieden werden.Also known from DE-AS 1231616 and DE-AS 1947821 are lifting and tilting devices whose clamping devices for the waste containers act in a similar way to the clamping devices according to DE-OS 2251890. Damage or destruction at the mouth edges of the waste containers can therefore be caused here the clamping devices can also not be avoided safely.

Zweck der Erfindung ist es, die bei den bekannten Hub-Kippvorrichtungen noch bestehenden Unzulänglichkeiten zu beseitigen. Daher ist der Erfindung das Ziel gesetzt, eine Hub-Kippvorrichtung der eingangs beschriebenen Gattung zu schaffen, mit der nicht nur Müllgefässe unterschiedlicher Abmessungen, sondern auch solche unterschiedlicher Bauart in den Müllsammelbehälter, z.B. in ein Müllsammelfahrzeug, entleert werden können. Dabei soll die Hub-Kippvorrichtung ferner so aufgebaut sein, dass eine Beschädigung oder Zerstörung der an den Müllgefässen vorgesehenen Tragvorrichtungen sicher verhindert wird und die Müllgefässe ausserdem auch beim Auftreten einer plötzlichen Störung am Kraftantrieb der Hub-Kippvorrichtung nicht herunterfallen können. Schliesslich soll die Anordnung auch so getroffen sein, dass die Müllgefässe bei bergaufwärts stehendem Müllsammelfahrzeug entleert werden können.The purpose of the invention is to eliminate the shortcomings which still exist in the known lifting and tipping devices. Therefore, the object of the invention is to provide a lifting and tipping device of the type described at the outset, with which not only waste containers of different dimensions, but also of different types can be placed in the waste collection container, e.g. into a garbage collection vehicle. The lifting and tipping device should also be constructed in such a way that damage or destruction of the supporting devices provided on the waste containers is reliably prevented and the waste containers cannot fall off even if a sudden malfunction occurs in the power drive of the lifting and tilting device. Finally, the arrangement should also be such that the garbage containers can be emptied when the garbage collection vehicle is uphill.

Eine Lösung dieser Problemstellung wird grundsätzlich durch die Kennzeichnungsmerkmale des Anspruchs 1 erreicht.A solution to this problem is basically achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1.

Durch die DE-OS 1966617 ist es zwar bei Hub-Kippvorrichtungen bereits bekannt, am unteren Ende der Schwenkkorbwand eine podestartige Stützplatte für das Müllgefäss anzuordnen. Diese Hub-Kippvorrichtung ist jedoch nicht für Müllgefässe unterschiedlicher Grösse einsetzbar.From DE-OS 1966617 it is already known in the case of lifting and tipping devices to arrange a pedestal-like support plate for the waste container at the lower end of the pivoting basket wall. However, this lifting and tilting device cannot be used for waste containers of different sizes.

Eine besonders wirtschaftliche Arbeitsweise der Hub-Kippvorrichtung ist dabei erzielbar durch die Benutzung der Merkmale des Anspruchs 2. Hierdurch ist es nicht nur möglich, ein einzelnes Müllgefäss grosser Abmessung in den Sammelbehälter zu entleeren. Vielmehr können auch gleichzeitig mehrere Müllgefässe kleiner oder mittlerer Abmessung zum Zwecke ihrer Entleerung bewegt werden, wie das beispielsweise schon durch die DE-OS 2251 890 und die DE-AS 1231616 an sich bekannt ist.A particularly economical mode of operation of the lifting and tilting device can be achieved by using the features of claim 2. This not only makes it possible to empty a single large-sized waste container into the collecting container. Rather, several garbage containers of small or medium size can be used simultaneously for the purpose of their disposal emptying are moved, as is known per se for example from DE-OS 2251 890 and DE-AS 1231616.

Eine verhältnismässig gleichmässige Lastverteilung wird dabei im letzteren Falle durch den Einsatz der Merkmale des Anspruchs 3 erreicht.A relatively uniform load distribution is achieved in the latter case by using the features of claim 3.

Für eine einwandfreie Einbringung der Müllgefässe in die Hub-Kippvorrichtung kann es ferner bedeutsam sein, die Merkmale der Ansprüche 4 und 5 in Benutzung zu nehmen.For a correct introduction of the garbage containers into the lifting and tipping device, it may also be important to use the features of claims 4 and 5.

Eine einwandfreie Lagenfixierung der Müllgefässe in der Hub-Kippvorrichtung ist es ferner dienlich, wenn die Merkmale der Ansprüche 6 bis 11 jeweils einzeln oder auch gemeinsam zum Einsatz gelangen.A perfect location fixation of the garbage containers in the lifting and tipping device, it is also useful if the features of claims 6 to 11 are used individually or together.

Dem gleichen Zweck können aber auch die Merkmale der Ansprüche 12 bis 19 dienlich gemacht werden.However, the features of claims 12 to 19 can also be used for the same purpose.

Während Hub-Kippvorrichtungen mit den speziellen Merkmalen der Ansprüche 8 bis 11 und 12 bis 19 in Verbindung mit Müllgefässen aus Blech oder Kunststoff zum Einsatz gelangen, deren Mündungsrand als im wesentlichen nach aussen und unten gerichteter, U-förmiger Kragen ausgebildet ist und als Mitnehmerkupplung mit der Hub-Kippvorrichtung zusammenwirkt, ist es wichtig, die Hub-Kippvorrichtung mit den Merkmalen der Ansprüche 20 bis 25 auszustatten, wenn mit ihr auch Müllgefässe derjenigen Bauart entleert werden sollen, bei welchen als Mitnehmer- und Kupplungsglieder im Bereich des Mündungsrandes seitlich vorstehende, zylindrische Zapfen vorgesehen sind.While lifting and tipping devices with the special features of claims 8 to 11 and 12 to 19 are used in connection with garbage containers made of sheet metal or plastic, the mouth edge of which is designed as a substantially outward and downward-facing, U-shaped collar and as a driving coupling the lifting and tipping device cooperates, it is important to equip the lifting and tipping device with the features of claims 20 to 25 if waste containers of the type are also to be emptied with it, in which cylindrical and projecting laterally as driver and coupling members in the region of the mouth edge Pins are provided.

Auch bei der Hub-Kippvorrichtung nach der DE-OS 2251 890 ist es zwar bereits bekannt, zusätzliche Kragarme an der Schwenkkorbwand einer Hub-Kippvorrichtung anzuordnen, die zur Halterung von Müllgefässen mit zylindrischem Mitnehmerzapfen benutzt werden. Hierbei wirken jedoch die Müllgefässe zusätzlich noch über Tragbauteile U-förmigen Querschnitts mit den Klemmvorrichtungen zusammen, um beim Hub-und Kippvorgang eine sichere Halterung derselben zu gewährleisten.In the case of the lifting and tipping device according to DE-OS 2251 890, it is already known to arrange additional cantilever arms on the pivoting basket wall of a lifting and tipping device which are used for holding waste containers with cylindrical driver pins. In this case, however, the garbage containers additionally interact with the clamping devices via supporting components of U-shaped cross section in order to ensure that they are securely held during the lifting and tilting process.

Weitere bauliche Ausgestaltungen für erfindungsgemässe Hub-Kippvorrichtungen ergeben sich aus den Ansprüchen 26 bis 29. Die Massnahmen nach Anspruch 28 stellen sicher, dass der Schwenkkorb nicht unbeabsichtigt mit seiner Stützplatte bis auf den Boden abgesenkt werden kann. Soll das aber geschehen, dann muss zuerst die Sperre ausgerückt werden. Beschädigungen an dem bis auf den Boden abgesenkten Schwenkkorb lassen sich andererseits durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 29 vermeiden.Further structural designs for lifting and tilting devices according to the invention result from claims 26 to 29. The measures according to claim 28 ensure that the pivoting basket cannot be inadvertently lowered to the floor with its support plate. If this is to happen, however, the lock must first be disengaged. Damage to the swivel basket lowered to the floor can be avoided on the other hand by the features of claim 29.

In Fig. 1 der Zeichnung ist ein Teilstück der Rückwand 1 eines Müllsammelfahrzeuges gezeigt, in deren oberem Bereich die beiden Schüttungstüren 2 und 3 teilweise angedeutet sind.In Fig. 1 of the drawing, a section of the rear wall 1 of a refuse collection vehicle is shown, in the upper area of which the two bulk doors 2 and 3 are partially indicated.

Der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges ist eine Hub-Kippvorrichtung zugeordnet, die in üblicher Weise einen kraftangetriebenen Hubschlitten und einen daran angelenkten Schwenkkorb umfasst. Von dieser Hub-Kippvorrichtung ist - der Einfachheit halber - nur die Schwenkkorbwand 4 und eine an deren unterem Ende sitzende, podestartige Stützplatte 5 angedeutet.The rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle is assigned a lifting and tipping device which, in the usual way, comprises a power-driven lifting carriage and a pivoting basket articulated thereon. For the sake of simplicity, only this swing-tilting wall 4 and a pedestal-like support plate 5 located at its lower end are indicated of this lifting and tilting device.

Die Schwenkkorbwand 4 ist im Bereich ihres oberen Endes mit zwei im Abstand nebeneinander liegenden Gruppen von Ausnehmungen 6, 8 und 7, versehen, in welche die Mündungsränder von Müllgefässen unterschiedlicher Grösse eingerückt werden können.The pivoting basket wall 4 is provided in the region of its upper end with two groups of recesses 6, 8 and 7, which are spaced apart from one another and into which the mouth edges of waste containers of different sizes can be inserted.

Die unteren Ausnehmungen 6 und 7 haben dabei eine Breite, welche der Mündungsbreite kleiner Müllgefässe angepasst ist, während die im Abstand darüber angeordneten Ausnehmungen 8 und 9 hinsichtlich ihrer Breite so ausgestaltet sind, dass sie die Mündungsränder von Müllgefässen mittlerer Grösse aufnehmen können.The lower recesses 6 and 7 have a width which is adapted to the mouth width of small waste containers, while the recesses 8 and 9 which are arranged at a distance above them are designed with respect to their width so that they can accommodate the mouth edges of waste containers of medium size.

Am oberen Rand der unteren Ausnehmung 6 sind ortsfest nockenartig nach einwärts vorspringende Sicherungs- und/oder Gegenlagerklauen 10 und 11 vorgesehen und entsprechende Sicherungs- und Gegenlagerklauen 12 und 13 befinden sich auch am oberen Ende der unteren Aussparung 7.At the upper edge of the lower recess 6, securing and / or counter-bearing claws 10 and 11 projecting inward in a cam-like manner are provided, and corresponding locking and counter-bearing claws 12 and 13 are also located at the upper end of the lower recess 7.

Auch den oberen Ausnehmungen 8 und 9 sind jeweils zwei solcher nockenartiger Sicherungs-und Gegenlagerklauen 14,15 bzw. 16,17 zugeordnet.The upper recesses 8 and 9 are also each assigned two such cam-like securing and counter-bearing claws 14, 15 and 16, 17.

Zu erwähnen ist, dass die Sicherungs- und/ oder Gegenlagerklauen 10 bis 17 von der unteren Begrenzungskante der jeweiligen Ausnehmung 6 bis 9 einen Abstand haben, welcher der Bauhöhe der an den Müllgefässen ausgebildeten Mündungsrändern angepasst ist.It should be mentioned that the securing and / or counter-bearing claws 10 to 17 are at a distance from the lower boundary edge of the respective recess 6 to 9, which is adapted to the overall height of the mouth edges formed on the waste containers.

Während die Ausnehmungen 6 bis 9 der Schwenkkorbwand 4 mit den ihnen zugeordneten Sicherungs- und/oder Gegenlagerklauen 10 bis 19 jeweils im Zusammenwirken mit der am unteren Ende der Schwenkkorbwand 4 nach rückwärts auskragenden, podestartigen Stützplatte 5 zur Ausrichtung, Abstützung und Lagenfixierung von Müllgefässen dienen, die einen nach auswärts und unten vorkragenden, im wesentlichen U-förmigen Mündungsrand haben, sind ausserdem in der Nähe des oberen Endes der Schwenkkorbwand 4 an deren seitlichen Begrenzungen noch Halterungen in Form zweier Kragarme befestigt oder anbringbar, welche dann benötigt werden, wenn mit der Hub-Kippvorrichtung auch Müllgefässe entleert werden sollen, die in der Nähe ihres oberen Mündungsrandes mit seitlich angeordneten, zylindrischen Zapfen, als Sicherungs- und Halteglieder bei der Hub- und Kippbewegung ausgestattet sind.While the recesses 6 to 9 of the swivel cage wall 4 with the associated securing and / or counter-bearing claws 10 to 19 each interact with the one below Ren end of the swing basket wall 4 to the rear projecting, platform-like support plate 5 for alignment, support and location fixation of garbage containers, which have an outwardly and downwardly projecting, substantially U-shaped mouth edge, are also near the upper end of the swing basket wall 4 whose lateral boundaries are still attached or attachable brackets in the form of two cantilever arms, which are required when garbage containers are also to be emptied with the lifting and tipping device, which near their upper mouth edge with laterally arranged, cylindrical pins, as securing and holding members the lifting and tilting movement are equipped.

An diesen Kragarmen 18 und 19 können auch, hier nicht dargestellte, an sich bekannte Arme zur Abstützung des unteren Teils der Müllgefässe, vorgesehen werden.Known arms for supporting the lower part of the refuse receptacles, not shown here, can also be provided on these cantilever arms 18 and 19.

Zur Sicherung der mit ihren Mündungsrändern in eine der Ausnehmungen 7 bis 9 der Schwenkkorbwand 4 eingerückten Müllgefässe sind an der Schwenkkorbwand 4 Schieberplatten 20, 21, beispielsweise über Lenkerhebel beweglich aufgehängt, die durch Kraftspeicher selbsttätig in einer Sperrstellung gehalten werden, aber durch Zusammenwirken mit ortsfest an der Rückwand 1 des Sammelbehälters sitzenden Anlaufkurven beim Einlaufen der Schwenkkorbwand 4 in ihre abgesenkte Lage zwangsläufig in eine Freigabestellung gedrückt werden.In order to secure the garbage receptacles with their mouth edges in one of the recesses 7 to 9 of the pivoting basket wall 4, slide plates 20, 21 are movably suspended on the pivoting basket wall 4, for example via handlebar levers, which are automatically held in a locked position by energy accumulators, but by interacting with the stationary position of the rear wall 1 of the collecting container seated curves are inevitably pressed into a release position when the pivoting basket wall 4 enters its lowered position.

Aufbau und Wirkungsweise dieser Schieberplatten 20 und 21 werden später anhand der Fig. 6 noch ausführlich erläutert.The structure and mode of operation of these slide plates 20 and 21 will be explained in detail later with reference to FIG. 6.

In Fig. 2 der Zeichnung ist gezeigt, dass die Schwenkkorbwand 4 des Schwenkkorbes 32 mit einer Schürze 24 versehen wird, welche Lagerböcke 25 und 26 zur schwenkbaren Verbindung mit dem (nicht dargestellten) Hubschlitten aufweist.2 of the drawing shows that the pivoting basket wall 4 of the pivoting basket 32 is provided with an apron 24 which has bearing blocks 25 and 26 for pivotable connection to the lifting carriage (not shown).

In der podestartigen Stützplatte 5 des Schwenkkorbes 32 sind Klappen 27 und 28 schwenkbar gelagert, die mit ihren der Schwenkkorbwand 4 zugewendeten Rändern hochstellbar sind und zur Lagenfixierung der Müllgefässe auf der Stützplatte 5 rastenartig hinter die Bodenränder der Müllgefässe greifen. Ein Ausschnitt 29 am freien Ende der podestartigen Stützplatte 5 dient als Freiraum, in welchem die Laufrollen der Müllgefässe aufgenommen werden, wenn diese auf der podestartigen Stützplatte 5 ruhen.In the pedestal-like support plate 5 of the swivel basket 32 flaps 27 and 28 are pivotally mounted, which can be raised with their edges facing the swivel basket wall 4 and which engage in a peg-like manner behind the bottom edges of the refuse containers for fixing the garbage containers on the support plate 5. A cutout 29 at the free end of the platform-like support plate 5 serves as free space in which the rollers of the garbage containers are received when they rest on the platform-like support plate 5.

Aus Fig. 3 ergibt sich, dass an der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges ein Gleitrahmen 30 sitzt, welcher nur teilweise dargestellt ist. Dieser Gleitrahmen 30 dient der Abstützung und Führung des (ebenfalls nur teilweise dargestellten) Hubschlittens 31, an welchem der aus der Rückwand 4 und der podestartigen Stützplatte 5 bestehende Hubschlitten 32 aufgehängt ist.From Fig. 3 it follows that on the rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle sits a slide frame 30, which is only partially shown. This slide frame 30 serves to support and guide the lifting carriage 31 (likewise only partially shown) on which the lifting carriage 32 consisting of the rear wall 4 and the platform-like support plate 5 is suspended.

Ersichtlich ist aus Fig. 3 auch, dass unterhalb der podestartigen Stützplatte 5 ein Plastikschutz 60 angeordnet werden kann, welcher verhindert, dass Schmutz durch die die Klappen 27 und 28 aufnehmenden Aussparungen in der podestartigen Stützplatte 5 auf den Boden fallen kann. Ferner ist nach Fig. 3 im Abstand hinter der Schwenkkorbwand 4 und im Bereich der Ausnehmungen 6 bis 9 die Schürze 24 gezeigt.It can also be seen from FIG. 3 that a plastic protection 60 can be arranged below the platform-like support plate 5, which prevents dirt from falling onto the floor through the recesses in the platform-like support plate 5 which accommodate the flaps 27 and 28. 3, the apron 24 is shown at a distance behind the swivel cage wall 4 and in the region of the recesses 6 to 9.

Aus Fig. 3 sind auch die als Halterungen für eine ganz bestimmte Ausführungsform von Müllgefässen dienenden Kragarme 18 und 19 ersichtlich. Diese tragen an ihrem freien Ende ausschliesslich nach hinten und nach einwärts offene Klauen 55 bis 57, denen Schwenkriegel 33 vorgelagert sind, die in Sperrlage unter der Kraft einer Feder 36 vor der Klauenöffnung stehen und welche nach auswärts gerichtete Auflaufschrägen 34 haben, über die sie durch die Zapfen der Müllgefässe entgegen der Federkraft in Freigabestellung drückbar sind.3 also shows the cantilever arms 18 and 19 serving as holders for a very specific embodiment of waste containers. These carry at their free end exclusively rearward and inward open claws 55 to 57, which are preceded by swivel bolts 33, which are in the locked position under the force of a spring 36 in front of the claw opening and which have outward-directed run-up bevels 34, through which they pass the pins of the waste containers can be pressed against the spring force in the release position.

Die Schwenkriegel 33 sind durch eine Stösselstange 37, die an ihrem freien Ende eine Rolle 38 trägt, betätigbar und zwar derart, das die Rolle 38 der Stösselstange 37 bei der Absenkbewegung des Hubschlittens 31 auf ortsfest an der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges angeordnete Anlaufkurven 23 läuft und dadurch zwangsläufig die Schwenkriegel 33 entgegen der Kraft der Feder 36 in Freigabestellung nach unten drückt.The swivel bolts 33 can be actuated by a push rod 37, which carries a roller 38 at its free end, and in such a way that the roller 38 of the push rod 37 runs during the lowering movement of the lifting carriage 31 on start-up curves 23 arranged in a fixed manner on the rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle thereby inevitably pushes the pivot bolt 33 against the force of the spring 36 in the release position down.

Aufbau und Wirkungsweise der Klauen 55 bis 57 und der Schwenkriegel 33 werden später in Verbindung mit den Fig. 7 und 8 noch näher erläutert.Structure and operation of the claws 55 to 57 and the pivot bolt 33 will be explained in more detail later in connection with FIGS. 7 and 8.

In Fig. 4 ist eine abgewandelte Ausführungsform der Hub-Kippvorrichtung dargestellt. Bei ihr weist die Schwenkkorbwand 4 zusätzlich zu den beiden im Abstand nebeneinander liegenden Gruppen von je zwei im Abstand übereinanderliegenden Ausnehmungen 6 und 8 bzw. 7 und 9 noch eine zusätzliche Ausnehmung 39 auf, die sich im Abstand oberhalb der beiden Ausnehmungen 8 und 9 durchgehend über nahezu die ganze Breite der Schwenkkorbwand 4 erstreckt. Diese Ausnehmung 39 ist dabei nach oben durch nockenartige Sicherungs- und/oder Gegenlagerklauen 40 und 41 begrenzt.4 shows a modified embodiment of the lifting and tilting device. In addition to the two spaced-apart groups of two recesses 6 and 8 or 7 and 9 spaced one above the other, the pivoting basket wall 4 also has an additional recess 39 which continuously extends above the two recesses 8 and 9 extends almost the entire width of the swing basket wall 4. This recess 39 is limited at the top by cam-like securing and / or counter-bearing claws 40 and 41.

Die Ausnehmung 39 in der Schwenkkorbwand 4 ist vorgesehen, damit durch die Hub-Kippvorrichtung auch Müllgefässe grosser Abmessung problemlos entleert werden können.The recess 39 in the swivel cage wall 4 is provided so that large-sized garbage containers can also be emptied without any problems by the lifting and tilting device.

Aus Fig. 5 ergibt sich, dass der aus Schwenkkorbwand 4 mit Schürze 24 bestehende und durch Lagerböcke 25 und 26 am Hubschlitten angelenkte Schwenkkorb 32 eine podestartige Stützplatte 42 hat, die an ihrem freien Ende mit einer schwenkbaren Auflaufkante 43 versehen ist, die gegen Federkraft zum Boden hin abgesenkt werden kann und ein erleichtertes Auffahren der Müllgefässe auf die Stützplatte 42 ermöglicht.From Fig. 5 it follows that the existing from swivel cage wall 4 with apron 24 and articulated by bearing blocks 25 and 26 on the lifting carriage swivel cage 32 has a pedestal-like support plate 42 which is provided at its free end with a swivel leading edge 43 which is against spring force Floor can be lowered and facilitated opening of the garbage containers on the support plate 42 allows.

Aus Fig. 6 ergibt sich, dass die zur Lagensicherung der Müllgefässe im Schwenkkorb 32 dienenden und im Bereich der Ausnehmungen 7 bis 9 bzw. 39 der Schwenkkorbwand 4 wirksamen Schieberplatten 20 und 21 jeweils von zwei Lenkhebeln 47 und 48 gehalten werden, die parallelogrammartig an der Rückseite der Schwenkkorbwand 4 um Bolzen 49 und 50 verschwenkbar gelagert sind. Dabei ist beispielsweise der untere Lenkhebel 48 über seinen Lagerbolzen 50 hinaus verlängert und trägt an seinem freien Ende eine Rolle 51, die mit der Anlaufkurve 22 an der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges zusammenwirkt.6 shows that the slide plates 20 and 21, which serve to secure the position of the waste containers in the swivel basket 32 and are effective in the area of the recesses 7 to 9 and 39 of the swivel basket wall 4, are each held by two steering levers 47 and 48, which are parallelogram-like on the Back of the swing basket wall 4 are pivotally mounted about bolts 49 and 50. For example, the lower one Steering lever 48 extends beyond its bearing pin 50 and carries at its free end a roller 51 which interacts with the run-up curve 22 on the rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle.

Über eine an der Verlängerung des Lenkhebels 48 angreifende Zugfeder 52 werden die Schieberplatten 20 und 21 relativ zur Schwenkkorbwand 4 selbsttätig nach oben geschoben, so dass sie mit den einstückig angeformten Riegelnasen 44, 45 und 46 jeweils von unten her in den Bereich der Ausnehmungen 6, 7 bzw. 8, 9 bzw. 39 hineinragen, wie das aus Fig. 1 ersichtlich ist. Dabei rükken die Riegelnasen als Sicherungselemente jeweils in den nach unten U-förmig offenen Mündungsrand des betreffenden Müllgefässes ein, nachdem der Hubschlitten 31 seine Aufwärtsbewegung begonnen hat und infolgedessen die Rolle 51 des verlängerten Lenkhebels 48 sich aus dem Bereich der ortsfesten Auflaufkurven 22 entfernt hat. Die Riegelnasen 44 bis 46 halten dabei das Müllgefäss mit seinem Mündungsrand sicher in den Ausnehmungen 6 bis 9 bzw. 39 fest.Via a tension spring 52 acting on the extension of the steering lever 48, the slide plates 20 and 21 are automatically pushed upwards relative to the pivoting basket wall 4, so that they each come from below into the area of the recesses 6, with the integrally formed locking lugs 44, 45 and 46. 7 or 8, 9 or 39 protrude, as can be seen from Fig. 1. The locking lugs as security elements each move into the downwardly U-shaped mouth of the waste container in question after the lifting slide 31 has started its upward movement and as a result the roller 51 of the extended steering lever 48 has moved away from the area of the fixed run-up curves 22. The locking lugs 44 to 46 hold the waste container securely with its mouth edge in the recesses 6 to 9 and 39, respectively.

Da bei bergaufwärts fahrendem Müllsammelfahrzeug der Schwenkkorb 32 sich um seine Lagerung am Hubschlitten 31 naturgemäss selbsttätig in die Lotrechte einpendelt, kann es vorkommen, dass sich bei diesem Betriebszustand die Rolle 51 am Verlängerungsende des Lenkhebels 48 aus dem Wirkbereich der ortsfest an der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges sitzenden Anlaufkurven 22 entfernt. Hierdurch werden dann die Schieberplatten 20 und 21 naturgemäss durch die Zugfedern 52 so bewegt, dass ihre Riegelnasen 44 bis 46 in den Bereich der Ausnehmungen 6 bis 9 bzw. 39 in unerwünschter Weise hochgehen, bevor der Mündungsrand des Müllgefässes in diese Ausnehmungen eingerückt ist. Um trotzdem eine Sicherungswirkung am Mündungsrand des Müllgefässes herbeiführen zu können, ist gemäss Fig. 6 mit dem Lenkhebel 48 starr ein Handhebel 53 verbunden, über den Schieberplatten 20 und 21 mit ihren Riegelnasen 44 bis 46 manuell in Ausrückstellung gebracht werden können, bis der Mündungsrand der Müllgefässe in die betreffende Ausnehmung 6 bis 9 bzw. 39 eingerückt ist. Nach Loslassen des Handhebels 53 tritt sodann die Sicherungswirkung der Schieberplatten 20 und 21 durch die Wirkung der Federn 52 selbsttätig ein.Since, when the refuse collection vehicle is traveling uphill, the swivel basket 32 naturally levels itself automatically into its vertical position when it is mounted on the lifting carriage 31, it can happen that in this operating state, the roller 51 at the extension end of the steering lever 48 moves out of the effective range of the fixed position on the rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle seated start-up curves 22 removed. As a result, the slide plates 20 and 21 are naturally moved by the tension springs 52 so that their locking lugs 44 to 46 undesirably go up into the area of the recesses 6 to 9 and 39 before the mouth of the waste container is indented into these recesses. In order to be able to bring about a securing effect at the mouth of the garbage container, a hand lever 53 is rigidly connected to the steering lever 48 according to FIG. 6, via which slide plates 20 and 21 with their locking lugs 44 to 46 can be manually disengaged until the mouth of the Garbage containers are indented into the relevant recess 6 to 9 or 39. After releasing the hand lever 53, the locking action of the slide plates 20 and 21 occurs automatically due to the action of the springs 52.

Die in den Figuren 1 bis 3 nur rein schematisch dargestellten, als Kragarme 18 und 19 ausgebildeten Halterungen für Müllgefässe mit in der Nähe ihres Mündungsrandes sitzenden zylindrischen Kupplungszapfen ist in den Figuren 7 und 8 ausführlicher dargestellt. Dabei ergibt sich, dass die am freien Ende von Kragarmen 54 vorgesehenen Klauen von seitlichen Wangen 55 sowie oberen Leisten 56 und unteren Leisten 57 gebildet werden, wobei der Abstand zwischen den Leisten 56 und 57 dem Durchmesser der an dem Müllgefässen befestigten Zapfen angepasst ist. An der Aussenseite der Wangen 55 sind dabei um Lagerbolzen 58 die durch eine Blattfeder 36 beaufschlagten Schwenkriegel 33 beweglich aufgehängt, so dass sie selbsttätig vor die rückwärtige Öffnung der Klauen sperrend eingreifen. Die Schwenkriegel 33 können entweder über einen Handhebel 35 oder aber über die Stösselstange 37 entgegen der Wirkung der Feder 36 in die Freigabestellung geschwenkt werden. Die Stösselstange 37 wirkt über die am freien Ende gelagerte Rolle 38 mit den Anlaufkurven 33 an der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges zusammen. Dabei werden über die Stösselstange 37 die Schwenkriegel 33 normalerweise automatisch in ihre Freigabestellung gedrückt, wenn der Schwenkkorb 32 über den Hubschlitten 31 in seine untere Endstellung abgesenkt wird.The purely schematically shown in Figures 1 to 3, designed as cantilever arms 18 and 19 brackets for waste containers with cylindrical coupling pins located near their mouth is shown in more detail in Figures 7 and 8. The result is that the claws provided on the free end of cantilever arms 54 are formed by side cheeks 55 and upper strips 56 and lower strips 57, the distance between the strips 56 and 57 being adapted to the diameter of the pins fastened to the waste containers. On the outside of the cheeks 55, the pivot bolts 33 acted upon by a leaf spring 36 are movably suspended around bearing bolts 58, so that they automatically interlock in front of the rear opening of the claws. The swivel bolts 33 can be swiveled into the release position either via a hand lever 35 or via the push rod 37 against the action of the spring 36. The push rod 37 interacts via the roller 38 mounted on the free end with the run-up curves 33 on the rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle. The pushrods 33 are normally automatically pushed into their release position via the push rod 37 when the pivoting basket 32 is lowered into its lower end position via the lifting slide 31.

Da sich bei Bergaufwärtsfahrt der Schwenkkorb 32 aber, wie bereits erwähnt, selbsttätig in die Lotrechte einpendelt, kommt dann die Stösselstange 37 ausser Kontaktberührung mit den Anlaufkurven 23, so dass es erforderlich wird, die Schwenkriegel 33 manuell über den Handhebel 35 in Freigabestellung zu drücken. In manchen Fällen ist es aber auch möglich, die Schwenkriegel 33 beim Aufschieben der Müllgefässe auf die podestartige Stützplatte 5 bzw. 42 dadurch auszurücken, dass die an den Müllgefässen befestigten Zapfen mit der Anlaufschräge 34 am vorderen Ende der Schwenkriegel 33 in Wirkverbindung treten.However, since, as already mentioned, the swivel cage 32 automatically moves into the vertical when driving uphill, the push rod 37 then comes out of contact with the starting curves 23, so that it is necessary to press the swivel bolts 33 manually via the hand lever 35 into the release position. In some cases, however, it is also possible to disengage the swivel bolts 33 when the refuse containers are pushed onto the pedestal-like support plate 5 or 42 in that the pins attached to the refuse containers come into operative connection with the run-on slope 34 at the front end of the swivel bolts 33.

Die Stösselstange 37 wirkt mit den Schwenkriegeln 33 über eine Gelenkverbindung 59 zusammen, die im Abstand oberhalb des Lagerbolzens 58 am Handhebel 35 vorgesehen ist.The push rod 37 interacts with the swivel bolts 33 via an articulated connection 59, which is provided at a distance above the bearing pin 58 on the hand lever 35.

Bei der in den Fig. 9 bis 11 dargestellten Hub-Kippvorrichtung haben die Schwenkkorbwand 4 und die podestartige Stützplatte 5 grundsätzlich die gleiche Ausgestaltung wie bei der Hub-Kippvorrichtung nach den Fig. 1 bis 3 bzw. 4. D.h. im oberen Endbereich der Schwenkkorbwand 4 des Schwenkkorbes 32 sind in zwei Gruppen nebeneinander und in Höhenrichtung gestaffelt jeweils zwei Ausnehmungen 6 und 8 bzw. 7 und 9 vorgesehen, während sich darüber eine weitere, nahezu über die gesamte Breite der Schwenkkorbwand 4 verlaufende Ausnehmung 39 befindet. Diesen Ausnehmungen 6 bis 9 bzw. 39 sind auch Sicherungs- und/oder Gegenlagerklauen 10 bis 17 bzw. 40 und 41 zugeordnet.In the lifting and tilting device shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the pivoting basket wall 4 and the platform-like support plate 5 basically have the same configuration as in the lifting and tilting device according to FIGS. In the upper end region of the pivoting basket wall 4 of the pivoting basket 32, two recesses 6 and 8 or 7 and 9 are provided in two groups next to one another and staggered in the vertical direction, while there is a further recess 39 running almost over the entire width of the pivoting basket wall 4. Securing and / or counter bearing claws 10 to 17 or 40 and 41 are also assigned to these recesses 6 to 9 and 39.

Bei der Hub-Kippvorrichtung nach den Fig. 9 und 10 sind den Ausnehmungen 6, 8 bzw. 7, 9 bzw. 39 jedoch die seitlichen Riegelplatten 20 und 21 nicht zugeordnet.9 and 10, however, the side locking plates 20 and 21 are not assigned to the recesses 6, 8 or 7, 9 or 39, respectively.

Stattdessen sind jeweils mittig zu jeder der beiden Gruppen von in Höhenrichtung übereinandergestaffelten Ausnehmungen 6, 8 und 7, 9 in Höhenrichtung bewegliche Riegelschieber 61 und 62 zugeordnet. Diese Riegelschieber 60 und 61 weisen jeweils mit Gleitkanten 63 und 64 versehene, seitliche Ansatzstücke 65 und 66 auf, die in Fig. 10 erkennbar sind. Die Gleitkanten 63 und 64 sind dabei innerhalb der kastenförmigen, nach oben offenen Schürze 24 des Schwenkkorbes 32 in Gleitschienen 67 und 68 geführt, wobei sich die Riegelschieber 61 und 62 nach unten durch (nicht dargestellte) Durchbrüche im Kastenboden der Schürze 24 bewegen können.Instead, each of the two groups of recesses 6, 8 and 7, 9 which are staggered one above the other in the vertical direction are assigned in the vertical direction locking slide slides 61 and 62. These locking slides 60 and 61 each have side extensions 65 and 66 provided with sliding edges 63 and 64, which can be seen in FIG. 10. The sliding edges 63 and 64 are guided within the box-shaped, upwardly open apron 24 of the swivel basket 32 in slide rails 67 and 68, the locking slides 61 and 62 being able to move downward through openings (not shown) in the box bottom of the apron 24.

Die Riegelschieber 61 und 62 werden jeweils über Kniehebel 69 und 70 in Vertikalrichtung zwischen ihrer Ruhelage und ihrer jeweiligen Arbeitslage verschoben, wobei die obere Arbeitslage derselben durch die strichpunktierte Linie 71 in Fig. 9 angedeutet ist.The locking slides 61 and 62 are each displaced vertically between their rest position and their respective working position via toggle levers 69 and 70, the upper working position of which is indicated by the dash-dotted line 71 in FIG. 9.

Der Kniehebel 69 wird von den beiden Lenkerhebeln 72 und 73 und der Kniehebel 70 von den beiden Lenkerhebeln 74 und 75 gebildet, wobei die Lenkerhebel 72 bzw. 74 an den Riegelschiebern 61 bzw. 62 angelenkt sind, während die Lenkerhebel 73 und 75 rückseitig an der Schwenkkorbwand 4 lagern.The toggle lever 69 is formed by the two handlebar levers 72 and 73 and the toggle lever 70 is formed by the two handlebar levers 74 and 75, the handlebar levers 72 and 74 being articulated on the locking slides 61 and 62, while the handlebar levers 73 and 75 on the rear on the Store swivel basket wall 4.

Die Kniehebel 69 und 70 werden gemeinsam durch eine an ihren Kniegelenken angreifende Schubstange 76 betätigt, die entweder durch eine Handhebe 27 oder aber durch Kraftbetätigung bewegt werden kann.The toggle levers 69 and 70 are actuated together by a push rod 76 which engages their knee joints and which can be moved either by a hand lift 27 or by force actuation.

In der aus Fig. 9 ersichtlichen Stellung der Kniehebel 69 und 70 nehmen die Riegelschieber 61 und 62 ihre untere Ruhelage ein. In der oberen Arbeitslage der Riegelschieber 61 und 62 sind die Kniehebel 69 und 70 nach links, und zwar geringfügig über ihre Strecklage hinaus bewegt und werden in dieser Stellung durch ortsfeste Anschläge an der Schwenkkorbwand 4fixiert.In the position of the toggle levers 69 and 70 shown in FIG. 9, the locking slides 61 and 62 assume their lower rest position. In the upper working position of the locking slide 61 and 62, the toggle levers 69 and 70 are moved to the left, slightly beyond their extended position and are fixed in this position by means of fixed stops on the swivel cage wall 4.

Aus Fig. 11 geht hervor, dass die Hub-Kippvorrichtung durch Kraftantriebe, z.B. Hydraulikzylinder 78 und 79 bewegt werden kann. Hierbei ist das Zylindergehäuse am oberen Ende der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges angelenkt, während seine Kolbenstange jeweils an Lagerungen 81 und 82 angreift, die an den Seitenkanten der Schwenkkorbwand 4 sitzen. Dabei geht aus Fig. 11 ferner hervor, dass diese Lagerungen 81 und 82 in der abgesenkten Ruhelage des Schwenkkorbes 32 mit Abstand senkrecht unterhalb der Lagerböcke 25 und 26 liegen, über die der Schwenkkorb 32 mit dem Hubschlitten 31 in Gelenkverbindung steht.From Fig. 11 it can be seen that the lift-and-tilt device is driven by power drives, e.g. Hydraulic cylinders 78 and 79 can be moved. Here, the cylinder housing is articulated at the upper end of the rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle, while its piston rod engages bearings 81 and 82, respectively, which sit on the side edges of the swivel basket wall 4. 11 that these bearings 81 and 82 are in the lowered rest position of the swivel cage 32 at a distance perpendicularly below the bearing blocks 25 and 26, via which the swivel cage 32 is articulated to the lifting slide 31.

Wiederum unterhalb der Lagerungen 81 und 82 sind an der Rückseite der Schwenkkorbwand 4 Rollen 83 und 84 drehbar gelagert, die mit Anlaufkurven 85 und 86 an der Rückwand 1 des Müllsammelfahrzeuges zusammenwirken. Die Anlaufkurven 85 und 86 sind dabei so ausgeführt, dass sich ihre mit den Rollen 83 und 84 zusammenwirkenden Kurvenkanten in Richtung von unten nach oben gesehen stetig weiter von der Rückwand 1 entfernen. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass beim Hochfahren des Hubschlittens 31 aus seiner unteren Endstellung bereits der Kippvorgang des Schwenkkorbes 32 beginnt und sich damit eine Optimierung der Entleerungszeit und des Kraftbedarfs ergibt. Durch die Übereinanderanordnung der Lagerböcke 25 und 26 des Schwenkkorbes 32 am Hubschlitten 31 sowie der Lagerungen 81 und 82 der Kolbenstangen 80 am Schwenkkorb 32 lässt sich ausserdem ein grosser Schwenkwinkel für den Schwenkkorb 32 und damit ein steiler Schüttwinkel beim Entleeren der Müllgefässe erreichen.Again below the bearings 81 and 82 4 rollers 83 and 84 are rotatably mounted on the rear of the swivel basket wall, which interact with start-up curves 85 and 86 on the rear wall 1 of the refuse collection vehicle. The run-up curves 85 and 86 are designed such that their curve edges interacting with the rollers 83 and 84 continuously move further away from the rear wall 1 in the direction from bottom to top. It is hereby achieved that when the lifting slide 31 is raised from its lower end position, the tilting process of the swivel cage 32 already begins, and thus the emptying time and the power requirement are optimized. Through the arrangement of the bearing blocks 25 and 26 of the swivel basket 32 on the lifting slide 31 and the bearings 81 and 82 of the piston rods 80 on the swivel basket 32, a large swivel angle for the swivel basket 32 and thus a steep angle of repose when emptying the waste containers can also be achieved.

Während die Müllgefässe kleiner und mittlerer Grösse beim Einschieben in die Hub-Kippvorrichtung durch die Müllwerker verhältnismässig leicht gehandhabt und damit sicher in die betreffenden Ausnehmungen 6, 8 bzw. 7, 9 der Schwenkkorbwand 4 eingerückt werden können, erfordert diese Arbeit bei den Müllgefässen grosser Bauart beträchtliche Anstrengungen. Damit jedoch auch die grossen Müllgefässe sicher in die betreffende Ausnehmung 39 der Schwenkkorbwand 4 zum Eingriff gelangen, sind im Bereich derselben die aus Fig. 10 ersichtlichen Führungsleisten 87 und 88 vorgesehen, welche sich schräg nach rückwärts und auswärts erstrecken und gewissermassen nach Art eines Trichters als Ausrichtmittel für die Müllgefässe grosser Abmessung wirken.While the garbage containers of small and medium size are relatively easy to handle when inserted into the lifting and tipping device by the garbage workers and can thus be securely inserted into the relevant recesses 6, 8 or 7, 9 of the swivel basket wall 4, this work requires large-sized garbage containers considerable effort. However, to ensure that the large garbage containers also come into engagement in the relevant recess 39 of the swivel basket wall 4, the guide strips 87 and 88 shown in FIG. 10 are provided in the area thereof, which extend obliquely backwards and outwards and to a certain extent in the manner of a funnel as Alignment agents for large-sized waste containers are effective.
