Definitions
- This invention relates to an automatic transfer installation for the equipment used to wash the refuse bodies according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the collection of the refuses is carried out by means of refuse bodies which are periodically emptied by special vehicles which carry out automatically the transfer of the refuses from the refuse body to the loading space of the vehicle.
- DE-A 2 536 774 shows one of said vehicles, called refuse body washers; these vehicles are generally formed, in the portion inherent to their function, by a caisson, mounted on the chassis of the vehicle, which is divided into sections containing both the washing liquid and the liquid pumping systems and, in the rear portion, by a washing water collecting chamber and by a refuse body lifting and overtuning mechanism disposed within said washing chamber.
- a disadvantage of the above and the other known refuse body washers consists in that the transfer of the water from the washing chamber to the reservoir is carried out by means of centrifugal impeller pumps, of the self-priming or other type, which have the disadvantage of easily becoming clogged because of the continuous passage of water with the solid bodies suspended therein.
- US-A-4 525 277 discloses a method and an installation for cleaning a septic tank comprising a vacuum pump together with valves provided on a motor vehicle to create a vacuum within a compartment for sucking sludges or water into a compartment.
- the object of the device according to the invention is to provide a mechanism of easy maintenance and non-critical use by means of which it will be possible to avoid the disadvantages of delicacy and assiduous maintenance due to the transfer methods described with reference to document DE-A 2 536 774, and which, in addition, will attain the object of completely discharging the water which collects on the bottom of the washing chamber.
- the invention proposes to provide an automatic water transfer installation according to claim 1.
- the reservoir 4, mounted on the chassis 1, is divided into three compartments: two side compartments 5 and 7 for clean water and a central compartment 6 for the recovery of the water used for the washing.
- a sucking conduit 9 which extends to the vacuum pump 3; situated above said compartment 6 is a maximum safety valve 10 for the vacuum.
- a pneumatically controlled floot- gate in the form of a spherical cock 11 which regulates the inflow of the washing water, coming from the washing chamber 13, through the conduit 12, into the compartment 6.
- the washing chamber has a lower port 16 and an upper port 17, hinged in its rear portion.
- a switch 18 Disposed adjacent the hinge of port 17 is a switch 18 connected to the floodgate 11.
- control station 19 Situated on the compartment 7 is a control station 19 into which there is inserted a double calibration (minimum and maximum) vacuostat 20, also connected to the floodgate 11; the vacuostat is apt to measure and regulate the vacuum within preselected limits.
- a double calibration (minimum and maximum) vacuostat 20 also connected to the floodgate 11; the vacuostat is apt to measure and regulate the vacuum within preselected limits.
- the vacuostat puts into action a hydraulic motor which actuates the vacuum pum 3. thus initiates to the creation of the vacuum in the interior of the central compartment 6 of the reservoir 4.
- Said compartment 6 is connected to the washing chamber 14 through the stainless steel pipe 12 intercepted by the spherical floodgate 11 which, during the development of the vacuum, obviously remains closed.
- the vacuostat 20 stops the vacuum pump and closed the contact which consents the opening of the spherical floodgate 11; however, this consent is intercepted by the switch 18 which maintains open the circuit as long as the shutter remains closed.
- the switch 18 is closed by simply opening the upper port 17; at this point, the electric consent signal may prosecute and, by means of the pneumatic electric valve, the spherical cock 11 is opened, thus starting the transfer of the washing water which is sucked into the compartment 6.
- the pressure within the compartment 6 begins to increase till, after the minimum calibration of the vacuostat 20 has been attained, the vacuum has been re-established and the cycle begins again.
- This system in addition to the advantages described hereinabove, has the advantages of being completely automatic, since it is independent from the stages of washing of the refuse bodies, and above all absolutely safe since it depends only on the calibrations set on the vacuostat.
- said installation may be applied and realized on a conventional refuse body washer equipment, without requiring modifications of the original equipment and, therefore, without requiring additional cost.
