Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to apparatus for the disposal of waste.
  • Bins in domestic kitchens where a large proportion of domestic waste is generated, are small for reasons of hygiene, and may need to be emptied several times a day. Bins in commercial kitchens present a health hazard which may be reduced by frequent emptying.
  • FIGS 1 to 3 show a rubbish disposal unit 10 installed for use on a wall 12 of a building such as a house.
  • the wall 12 is an exterior wall of the house and the outer face of the wall is seen in Figure 1.
  • the cover 14 comprises a hood 16 and a body 18, which define together with an area of the wall a region large enough to accomodate a waste receptacle 20 of generous proportions, typically of the size of a dustbin liner.
  • the receptacle 20, shown in Figure 2 as a disposable bag, is, in use, hung from a support 22 which is fixed to the wall.
  • At least the cover 16 and preferably also the body 18 is provided with a handle 19.
  • 'bag' is used in this specification to include a sack or similar container.
  • the support 22 holds the mouth of the bag 20 open and below the outlet 24, in the outer face of the wall 12, of a sloping chute 26 which guides waste to the outlet 24.
  • the chute lies in a hole 27 found in the wall.
  • the mouth of the bag 20 is positioned beneath the outlet 24 so as to catch waste falling from the chute 26.
  • the inner end of the chute 26 lies against the inner face of the wall, a flange 28 bearing against the wall around the inner end of the hole 27.
  • the chute inlet is higher in the wall 12 than the outlet 24, so that the chute slopes downwardly from the inlet to the outlet 24, causing waste on the chute 26 to move towards the lower end of the chute 26 and into the bag 20.
  • the lowermost edge 30 of the chute 26 projects beyond the outer face of the wall 12 to reduce the likelihood of waste fouling the wall 12 above the bag.
  • the support 22 for the bag 20 is integral with a frame 32 which is mounted against the outer face of the wall.
  • the frame 32 is attached to the wall 12 (by means described below) and includes an upper horizontal portion 34 above the chute outlet 24.
  • the hood 16 is pivotally mounted on this horizontal frame portion 34. The hood can be lifted from the position shown in Figure 1 to the position shown in Figure 2 using the handle 19, to allow access to the upper part of the unit and particularly to the bag clamp for changing the bag and to the chute 26 for cleaning.
  • the pivotal connection is provided by means of suitable lockable hinges (not shown) which are arranged to hold the hood.16 in the raised position.
  • the body 18 of the cover 14 is pivotally mounted directly on the wall 12 so as to be pivotable about a horizontal axis at the bottom of the body 18.
  • the body 18 and the hood 16 meet when the cover is shut"at a horizontal plane in the region of the support 22.
  • the bag 20 can be removed, for instance when it is full of waste, by releasing it from the support 22 (as will be described later) and allowing it to drop into the body 18.
  • the body 18 is tilted back to the position shown in Figure 2 which allows the bag 20 to be tied and then removed between the upper edge of the body 18 and the support 22, by sliding it out on the smooth inner surface of the body 18. A new bag can be hung on the support 22 before the cover 14 is closed.
  • the body 18 is retained by a detent 58 engaging the support 22.
  • the ties 36 are shown fixed to the frame and the body 18. Alternatively, the ties may be fixed to the frame, extended through a hole in the body 18 and terminate in a toggle.
  • a jamming cleat for instance, of the type used in boats, may be provided to grip the ties to hold the body open at angles intermediate in the range of possible angles.
  • four long bolts 58 extend from an apertured flange 60 around the central part of the chute 26 outwardly through selected ones of sets of apertures 62 in the frame 32. Nuts 64 on the outer ends of the bolts are tightened both to mount the frame 32 securely on the wall and also to pull the chute outwardly so that the flange 28 is pulled firmly against the inner face of the wall 12.
  • Wall thicknesses vary, and to accomodate for this the chute 26 and bolts 58 are supplied sufficiently long to cover all possibilites and are then cut down on site to the required length. The other components are unaffected by variations (between limits) in the wall thickness.
  • a flap 38 may be mounted in the front 40 of a backless drawer 42 accomodated in the chute 26.
  • the drawer 42 is slidably mounted in the chute 26 on longitudinal notched flanges 41 (see Fig. 3) which act as runners, so that it may be drawn out of the chute inlet by hand (see hand A, Fig. 4) using the integral handle 43 below the flap.
  • the drawer may be drawn to a position such that it tips slightly backwards into the room. Large objects which cannot conveniently be pushed through the "letter-box" aperture in the front 40 of the drawer and which is covered by the flap 38, may be placed in the drawer 42 from above.
  • the drawer 42 When the drawer 42 is pushed back into the chute 26, waste in the drawer 42 tumbles over the backless edge of the drawer, down the chute and into the bag.
  • the planes of the front 40 and the drawer base 42 are so angled that when the drawer 42 is pushed into the chute, the front 40 lies against the flange 28. In this position, the flap 38 can be pushed away to allow waste to be deposited on the chute, as shown by hand B in Fig. 4.
  • the backless drawer may be dispensed with and the flap hung directly in the chute inlet, where it may be used as described above.
  • FIGs 6 and 7 show an alternative drawer and flap for use in the inlet end of the chute.
  • the drawer is the drawer shown in Figures 4 and 5, adapted to accommodate the different flap.
  • the flap 250 comprises a rectangular sheet 251 fixed along its top edge to a rod 252.
  • the rod has a circular cross-section and is longer than the longest dimension of the sheet 251, so that it projects beyond the sheet 250 at each end.
  • Figure 7 is a perspective view from inside the drawer towards the corner righthand most in Figure 6.
  • a rest 260 into which the projecting ends of the rod 252 may be placed.
  • the bar 256 across the top of the drawer front is shaped to allow the rod 252 to rest and to turn in the rests 260.
  • the sheet 251 hangs down closing the opening 258 in the drawer front.
  • the sheet 251 is oversize for the opening 258 and so cannot be pulled through the opening 258, but can be pushed into the drawer, pivoting about the axis of the rod 252.
  • the backless drawer described above may be drawn entirely out of the chute to enable the chute and the drawer to be cleaned. Moreover, when the drawer is out of the chute, it may be used as a dustpan, which is emptied by replacing the drawer in the chute.
  • the integral handle 43 may be replaced by a handle or a pair of handles which may be oriented horizontally, for drawing the drawer, or vertically for holding the drawer when it is being used as a dustpan.
  • a further handle can be provided in the form of a bar attached to the drawer side and extending across the top of the drawer at the end remote from the flap. The further handle will also function as a bracing bar between the two sides of the backless drawer.
  • the mounting of the handle could include a locking mechanism which, when the handle is vertical, prevents the drawer moving in the chute. The lock avoids the dangers which the chute might otherwise present to young children or domestic animals.
  • the bag support 22 comprises a rim 23 having the shape of a closed curve defining a substantially horizontal plane.
  • the rim 23 is above the body of the support 22.
  • the neck of the bag 20 is passed upwardly through the rim.
  • the mouth portion of the bag that is, the material adjacent the mouth of the bag, is folded back to lie over and around the rim, so that the inside and outside vertical faces and the top of the rim are covered by the material of the bag 20.
  • a resilient collar assembly 44 holds the material of the bag 20 against the outer vertical surface of the rim, to prevent the mouth of the bag slipping back through the rim.
  • the rim 23 is shaped with a "hockey-stick” section so that the collar assembly 44 engages the bag 20 under the hook thus formed at the top edge of the rim, providing substantial resistance to pulling through of the bag.
  • the collar assembly comprises a flexible strip 46 whose ends 46a, 46b overlap.
  • Four lugs 48 integral with the inner end 46a of the strip 46 hold the inner and outer ends 46a, 46b of the strip together and constrain the ends in move relatively to each other longitudinally of the strip.
  • the strip 46 has a longitudinal slot 50 adjacent the outer end.
  • a first stud 52a is provided on the outer end 46b of the strip 46 to which a loop or band 54 of resilient material may be attached.
  • a second stud 52b is provided on the inner end 46a of the strip 46 and projects through the slot 50.
  • the loop 54 of resilient material is also attached to the second stud 52b, having passed substantially entirely around the periphery of the collar assembly 44.
  • the loop 54 thus urges the studs 52 apart, causing the collar to contract and grip the mouth of the bag against the rim.
  • Two grips 56 are provided, one adjacent each stud 52. The grips may be used manually to expand the collar against the resilience of the loop 54, to allow the bag to be removed from the rim.
  • the hood 16 and the body 18 of the cover 14 are identically formed. They may be moulded in a plastics material or manufactured from metal for instance. Similarly, many materials can be used in the manufacture of the other integers of the apparatus. The materials are chosen according to the environment in which the apparatus is to be used and the type of waste which it is required to handle. When used on an exterior wall, the cover provides substantially weatherproof protection for the bag and the chute.
  • a mirror 66 may be mounted on the inside of the hood 16, as shown in Figure 3.
  • a light source may be provided to generate a horizontal beam of light directed across the mouth of the bag to a light sensitive element. Electrical circuitry connected to the ligh sensitive element detects when the beam is broken by rubbish which projects above the mouth of the bag, and generates a warning signal to indicate that the bag is full.
  • a second flap may be provided which covers the outlet of the chute.
  • the flap may be right enough to be opened by the impact of rubbish or may be manually openable from within the building by means of a lever arrangement.
  • a tablet of air-freshener may be mounted inside the housing 14.
  • brackets may be provided inside the hood 16 to support a roll of replacement bags and a set of ties for tying the bags when full.
  • Mounts may be provided adjacent the inlet of the chute for a roll of absorbent paper towelling in which rubbish may be wrapped, if desired, or on which hands may be cleaned.
  • Figure 10 is an interrupted sectional view through a second embodiment 70 of the invention designed for use wholly inside the building. Similar corresponding parts are given the same reference numerals and these parts will not be described again in detail.
  • the body 18 forming the lower part of the unit as well as the bag supporting structure are the same as in the previous embodiment, but in this case a simple lift-up cover 72 is provided which can be lifted up to permit waste material to be put into the bag. Alternatively, or additionally, a flap may be provided in the cover 72 through which waste may be pushed.
  • the frame 74 which takes the place of the frame 32 in supporting the unit against the wall, need not be so tall as in the first embodiment but must of course be securely fixed to the wall by screws or other suitable fasteners.
  • This unit 70 uses the collar assembly 44 of Figures8 and 9. To replace a bag, the collar is released allowing the bag to fall into the body 18. The body 18 is then tipped back, as shown for the first embodiment in Figure 2, until held by the ties 36, and the bag can be tied while the weight is taken by the body 18. The bag can then be slid out of the unit and a new bag put in.
  • the bag clamping assembly, and the chute inlet drawer with a flap in its front may be used for other unrelated purposes.
  • FIGs 11 to 13 show a third embodiment of a rubbish disposal unit, which is for use on a wall 112 of a building such as a house.
  • a wall 112 of a building such as a house.
  • the unit incorporates a chute, a backless drawer and a flap which are identical to those of the embodiment of Figs. 1 to 5.
  • the wall 112 is an exterior wall of the house and the outer face of the wall is seen in Figure 11 . When the unit is installed for use, only the cover 114 is visible from outside the building.
  • the cover 114 comprises a hood 116 and a body 118, which define together with an area of the wall a region large enough to accomodate a waste receptacle 120 of generous proportions, typically of the size of a dustbin liner.
  • the receptacle 120 for instance a disposable bag, is, in use, hung from a supporting rim 122.
  • At least the cover 116 and preferably also the body 118 is provided with a handle 119.
  • the mouth of a bag 120 is, in use, held open and below the outlet 124, in the outer face of the wall 112, of a sloping chute 126 which guides waste to the outlet 124.
  • the chute lies in a hole 127 found in the wall.
  • the mouth of the bag is positioned beneath the outlet 124 so as to catch waste falling from the chute 126.
  • the inner end of the chute 126 lies against the inner face of the wall, a flange 128 bearing against the wall around the inner end of the hole 127.
  • the chute inlet is higher in the wall 112 than the outlet 124, so that the chute slopes downwardly from the inlet to the outlet 124, _.causing waste on the chute 126 to move towards the lower end of the chute 126 and into the bag 120.
  • the lowermost edge 130 of the chute 126 projects beyond the outer face of the wall 112 to reduce the likelihood of waste fouling the wall 112 above the bag.
  • a frame 132 is mounted against the outer face of the wall 112 and includes an upper horizontal portion 134 above the chute outlet 124.
  • the hood 116 is pivotally mounted on this horizontal frame portion 134.
  • the hood can be lifted from the position shown in Figure 9 to a raised position, using the handle 119, to allow access to the upper part of the unit and particularly to the bag support for changing the bag and to the chute 126 for cleaning.
  • the pivotal connection is provided by means of suitable lockable hinges (not shown) which are arranged to hold the hood 116 in the raised position.
  • the body 118 of the cover 114 is pivotally mounted on the frame 132 so as to be pivotable about a horizontal axis at the bottom of the body 118.
  • the bag 120 can be removed, for instance when it is full of waste, by releasing it from the supporting rim 122 (as will be described later) and allowing it to drop into the body 118.
  • the body 118 is tilted back to the position shown in Figure 10 which supports the bag 120 while it is tied, before being removed from the housing, by sliding it out on the smooth inner surface of the body 118.
  • a new bag can be hung on the supporting rim 122 after the cover 114 has been closed.
  • the toggled ties and jamming cleat described above may be used in this embodiment.
  • the supporting rim 122 comprises a first rim portion 122a mounted on the frame 132 and a second rim portion 122b which is integral with the body 118, and which forms the upper periphery of the -body 118.
  • the two rim portions meet at a vertical plane substantially parallel to the plane of the frame 132, to form a rim 122 having the shape of a closed curve defining a substantially horizontal plane.
  • the circumference of the rim so formed is the same as or slightly less than the circumference of the mouth of the bag to be used.
  • the neck of a bag is held between the rim portions 122a, 122b while the body 118 is closed to form the rim 122 about the neck of the bag.
  • the mouth portion of the bag that is, the material adjacent the mouth of the bag, is folded back to lie over and around the rim, so that the inside and outside vertical faces and the top of the rim are covered by the material of the bag.
  • the distance by which the rim 122 upwardly extends is such that when the housing 114 is closed, the mouth portion of a bag hung from the rim 122 as described above is pinched between the rim and the inside surface of the hood 116 along a substantial length of the rim 122 of the rim portion 122b.
  • the pinching action prevents the mouth of the bag slipping back through the rim 122. Because of the pinching action, the bag is held adequately securely without using the collar of Figs. 6 and 7. However, the collar may be used for extra security, in which case, the distance by the which the studs 52, and the grips 56 project horizontally, in use, should be so small that they do not prevent the hood 116 closing. In common with the other embodiments, if the bag is deep enough, it will rest on the bottom surface of the body, which will support some of the weight.
  • four long bolts 158 extend from an apertured flange 160 around the central part of the chute 126 outwardly through selected ones of sets of apertures 162 in the frame 132. Nuts 164 on the outer ends of the bolts are tightened both to mount the frame 132 securely on the wall and also to pull the chute outwardly so that the flange 128 is pulled firmly against the inner face of the wall 112.
  • Wall thicknesses vary, and to accomadate for this the chute 126 and bolts 158 are supplied sufficiently long to cover all possibilities and are then cut down on site to the required length. The other components are unaffected by variations (within limits) in the wall thickness.
  • a mirror 166 may be mounted on the inside of the hood 116, as shown in Fig. 3.
