Definitions

  • the invention relates to a waste container, in particular made of plastic, with a waste space delimited by a floor and side walls and edge profiles extending along the upper edges of the side walls, the edge profile on at least one side wall (receiving side wall) having a cavity accessible from below ( Has receiving cavity) for the engagement of a gripper that has incisions and supporting edges extending between the incisions.
  • the edge profiling on the receiving side wall is stiffened by ribs which are spaced such that they come to rest in the incisions of the gripper. Lateral alignment is also not achieved with this, since the width of the incisions in the gripper is a multiple of the rib thickness.
  • corner webs are available on the front container wall, which are inclined to the adjacent walls stand. However, they alone are not sufficient to laterally align the container with the surfaces facing each other as soon as one of the alignment webs contacts a gripping rail with its claw end faces. Even intermediate webs on the container, when placed on the inclined surfaces of the claws, cannot yet cause an exact lateral alignment if the gripping rail is moved upwards.
  • the width of the cuts on the gripper is specified as 75 mm; the width of the associated ribs or webs, on the other hand, can hardly be ascertained by 20 mm.
  • the standard distances between the gripper edges can obviously be measured with such a large margin that smaller containers (120, Fig. 1) and larger containers (240, Fig. 2) can be accommodated. Alignment by positive locking can only take place very roughly with such dimensions, so that the match with the filling opening on the collecting vehicle is in no way easily established; rather, additional facilities are required for this.
  • the invention aims to design a refuse container of the type mentioned in the introduction in such a way that its precise lateral alignment is possible without any auxiliary means on the vehicle.
  • a nose-shaped body or projection with oblique guide surfaces and / or guide edges converging as the distance from the receiving side wall converges is arranged in the region below and / or within the receiving cavity so that the interaction with the gripper is such that slide the side edges of the cuts of the gripper along the guide surfaces and / or the guide edges and thereby align the container laterally.
  • the guide surfaces are preferably arranged symmetrically to the transverse center of the receiving side wall (claim 5). It is sufficient to accomplish the lateral alignment within a single cutout of the gripper. However, several sections can also be used for this.
  • the connection of the guide surfaces via convexly curved surfaces according to claim 6 has the advantage that the connecting surface already has a guiding effect. This is particularly advantageous at the lower end of guide surfaces converging in the vertical direction. End faces according to claims 7 and 8 are advantageous for the appearance of the refuse container. With the measure of claim 8, parts protruding beyond the upper edge of the container are avoided and nevertheless the largest possible path for centering is used.
  • Base areas according to claim 9 have the advantage that after successful lateral alignment there is a stable lateral contact within the incisions.
  • the structural design with which the guide surfaces and / or the guide edges are formed also depends heavily on the manufacturing process by which the waste container is manufactured.
  • a waste container made of plastic which is produced by injection molding
  • Arbitrarily shaped guide walls that is to say also walls converging in the vertical direction, can be produced relatively easily in the injection molding process in a design according to claim 16.
  • a niche must then be accepted in the garbage room, which is generally not desirable there.
  • Such a niche can be avoided if, according to claim 17, a separately produced filler body is inserted into the mold and overmoulded, or else by using separately produced guide bodies according to claim 18, which are used with the refuse. container is fused. A particularly good connection is obtained with the means of claim 19.
  • Another possibility is the use of a separately produced guide body which is placed on the waste container (claims 20 and 21).
  • the invention is possible in principle with straight and curved receiving cavities.
  • Straight receiving cavities according to claim 22 are customary.
  • the garbage container consists essentially of a box-shaped lower part 1 of approximately square horizontal cross-section, which contains the garbage room, a hinged lid 2 closing the garbage room and a trolley 3, which consists of two rollers.
  • An edge profile 4 extends along the upper edge of the lower part 1, with which an edge suitable for the placement of the waste container when it is automatically emptied is formed; at the same time, the edge profiling stiffens the opening of the lower part 1.
  • the container When the garbage container is automatically emptied with a garbage collecting vehicle, the container is received at the upper edge of its side wall 5, which is therefore referred to as the receiving side wall.
  • a gripper which is usually designed as a straight rail, engages under the edge profile 4, which extends along the upper edge of the receiving side wall.
  • the gripper has horizontal supporting edges and vertical incisions. It is important that the garbage container is aligned relatively precisely on the gripper so that the upper opening of the container comes to rest securely on the corresponding filling opening of the garbage collection vehicle when it is tilted.
  • a body, generally designated 6, is arranged on the receiving side wall 5 and is formed in one piece with the waste container.
  • the body 6 has base walls 7, 8 which are approximately at right angles to the receiving side wall 5.
  • the base walls 7, 8 merge into guide walls 9, 10, which converge with increasing distance from the receiving side wall 5.
  • the guide walls 9, 10 form guide surfaces 9a, 10a, which are arranged symmetrically with respect to the transverse center marked by the dash-dotted line 11 of a receiving cavity designated overall by 12.
  • the guide walls 9, 10 are connected to one another by an end wall 13 which lies in the same plane as an end wall 14 of the receiving cavity 12.
  • the walls of the projection 6 have lower end edges which run obliquely upwards.
  • the end edges project into a straight line 15 in FIG. 5.
  • the walls of the receiving cavity 12 are heavily ribbed in order to be sufficiently stable for the support by the supporting edges of the gripper.
  • the ribbing of the upper wall 16 consists of a system of longitudinal ribs 17, 18 which cross at right angles and transverse ribs 19.
  • the longitudinal rib 17 is pulled downward at its ends (regions 17a and 17b). These rib areas form guide edges 20 and 21, which further contribute to the lateral alignment of the container relative to the gripper.
  • the guide surfaces 9a and 10a converge only in the horizontal direction.
  • the projection 6, which forms the guide surfaces, has a hollow 22 which is open at the bottom. This design enables the projection 6 to be produced in one piece with the lower container part 1 with a simple tool, since there are no undercuts.
  • the alignment effect of the guide surfaces 9a and 10a occurs when there is a horizontal movement between the waste container and the gripper. In the area of the guide edges 20 and 21 (of course, corresponding guide edges are present to the right of the transverse center 11), a vertical relative movement between the gripper and the container has an aligning effect.
  • the gripper G indicated by dash-dotted lines engages with the corners of its cutouts A in the inner corners which exist between the horizontal part of the longitudinal rib 17 and the guide edges 20, 21. After the gripper G has penetrated into the receiving cavity 12, horizontal movements of the gripper relative to the waste container are in any case only very limited or even not possible at all.
  • a nose-shaped body 23 is formed on the receiving side wall 5 in the area below the receiving cavity 12.
  • the body 23 has guide surfaces 24 and 25, which converge downward both in the vertical direction and in the horizontal direction with increasing distance from the receiving side wall 5.
  • the guide surfaces 24, 25 are connected via an end wall 26, which is again in the plane of FIG End wall 27 of the receiving cavity 12 is located.
  • the guide surfaces are connected to one another by a convex surface 28.
  • the guide surfaces 24, 25 merge into further guide surfaces 29, 30, which only converge in the horizontal direction.
  • the body 23 is formed in one piece with the waste container, the wall 5 bulging outwards at the location of the body 23.
  • the production is extremely simple. However, an inner wall that runs smoothly right up to the top must be dispensed with.
  • the nose-like projection 23 acts due to the double inclination of the guide surfaces 24, 25, so to speak, both when the gripper is moved horizontally towards the wall 5 and when the gripper moves vertically relative to the container.
  • guide edges 20 and 21 are provided in addition to the guide surfaces 24, 25.
  • the disadvantage just mentioned that the inner wall of the container is not continuously smooth is avoided, although here too there is a guide projection 31 which has guide surfaces 32 and 33 which are both horizontal and converge vertically.
  • the outer shape of the body 31 is of the same design as that of the nose-shaped projection 23 according to FIGS. 9 and 10; only the proportions are slightly different.
  • the guide surfaces 32, 33 and the transition surfaces between these guide surfaces are formed here by an attached body 34.
  • the body 34 is preferably also a plastic Molded part.
  • the attachment takes place in that the body is pushed onto ribs 35, 36 which are formed on the receiving side wall 5 of the container.
  • the ribs 35, 36 have lateral projections 37 of a T-shaped cross section in order to make the contact surface with the body 34 even larger and thus to make the connection even more secure.
  • the body 34 also engages in the receiving cavity 12 and also forms guide surfaces there. For additional protection against sliding of the body 34, an adhesive bond or a mechanical latching can be produced between the body and the ribs 35, 36.
  • the outer shape of the guide lug 38 is the same as in the embodiment according to FIGS. 11 to 14.
  • the guide surfaces 39, 40 are formed here by the surface of a body 41, which was manufactured separately before the garbage container was formed, but when the garbage container was formed Garbage container was fused with this.
  • the body 41 contains a plurality of parallel grooves 42 to 46. When the garbage container is formed, the plastic flows into the grooves 42 to 46, the groove walls being melted somewhat so that welding takes place with the material of the garbage container. The filling of the grooves forms a kind of ribs 47 to 51.
  • the rib 49 can be seen in view in FIG. 18.
