Definitions

  • the invention relates to a trash can with a dome-shaped head and a lid-closed insertion opening, which is formed by the edge of a wall sitting on the trash can on a secant plane for the domed curvature and is closed by two correspondingly curved lid parts, which parallel to the domed curvature from their position above the secant plane behind the Dome wall can be lowered by actuating an opening mechanism that moves both cover surfaces simultaneously.
  • US-A-2 063 507 shows a waste collector which is semicircular in plan.
  • the outer bucket has in its curved jacket wall a concentric door to insert an inner bucket which is also semicircular in plan.
  • a dome wall is fixed at the upper end of the outer bucket.
  • a considerable amount of free space extends between the lower edge of the same and the opening of the inner bucket. This is necessary so that the cover part designed in the form of a quarter section can pivot into the open position. The latter naturally reduces the filling volume of the waste collector in relation to its overall size. This disadvantage also occurs if, as this US-A-2 063 507 points out textually, a circular floor plan of the waste collector is chosen. If two cover parts, which are designed analogously, were arranged, considerable free space for the cover movement would also be required.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of manufacturing a waste bin of the type in question simple to design so that an optimal filling volume can be realized in relation to the size of the waste bin.
  • the utility value of a generic waste bin is increased.
  • the cover parts move parallel to the dome contour and pivot downward from their position projecting beyond the secant plane behind the dome wall.
  • the cover parts in the form of spherical eighth sections then extend exclusively behind the dome wall and are in a hiding position there.
  • the dome wall, cover parts and opening are in a certain relationship to each other.
  • the cover parts are designed in the form of eighth-ball sections, a relatively large insertion opening remains, which corresponds approximately to a quarter-ball section. This allows even large-volume pieces of waste to be brought into the interior of the waste bin without hindrance. Also max. Filling the waste bin possible. When the waste bin is full, the lid does not interfere with the inside of the waste bin. The filling volume of the waste bin is therefore optimal in terms of its size. This also saves weight, which makes handling the waste bin easier.
  • the lid parts can be easily opened using an operating rod that runs up from the foot pedal.
  • the lid parts do not have to be brought into the spread position by hand in order to have access to the insertion opening.
  • the actuating rod ends in a slide This in turn has two forked legs, which are on both sides of the common axis of the two cover parts extend and stand in the pin / slot engagement to a cover part.
  • the corresponding pin / slot engagement is located in the tip area of the spherical sections, that is in an area below the edge of the insertion opening and thus in a hiding position. If the foot pedal is depressed in the downward direction, this leads to a driving of the actuating rod, which in turn takes the slide in the downward direction.
  • each cover part is pivoted about the common pivot point via the pin / slot engagement, parallel to the dome contour behind the dome wall.
  • the two lid parts inevitably assume their closed position by protruding beyond the insertion opening and restoring the dome shape of the head. It proves advantageous if the two cover parts are spring-loaded in the closing direction. If the foot pedal is no longer applied, the spring load returns the two cover parts to the closed position.
  • the spring load also fulfills the task of returning the foot pedal to the starting position.
  • Particularly suitable as a spring is a tension spring which extends in the tip region of the eighth-ball sections and extends over the closing joint. The load on both spherical sections is therefore the same.
  • the latter runs near the inner wall of the waste bin housing parallel to the latter over an angle of 180 °, so that it is also possible to accommodate an inner bin in the waste bin housing.
  • the swing arm then extends in the annular space between the inner bin and the waste bin housing. So that waste cannot enter the annular space when the waste is introduced, the upper edge of the inner bin is overlapped by an upper edge ring of the waste bin housing.
  • the edge ring fulfills a further function by holding the bearing bracket.
  • the legs of the slide are also penetrated by the edge ring.
  • the opposing edges of the lid parts also have a double function in that they form an angled portion.
  • thin material can be used for the cover parts. The bends lead to sufficient rigidity.
  • the waste bin provided as a whole with the reference number 1 has a waste bin housing 2 which is placed over an inner bin 3 in a concentric orientation.
  • the lower edge 4 of the waste bin housing 2 is surrounded by a stand collar 5 made of rubber or plastic.
  • An arcuate rocker 6 is supported in an annular space formed by the lower edge 4 and stand collar 5. It runs along the inner wall of the waste bin housing 2 and extends over approximately 180 °.
  • the two diametrically opposed rocker bearing journals 7 sit on the standing collar 5.
  • Two arms 8 extend from the middle of the swing arm and reach through a window 9 in the lower region of the waste bin housing 2.
  • the cantilevers 8 carry a foot pedal 10.
  • the rocker 6 In the starting position thereof, there is a position of the curved rocker arm 6 which increases in the outward direction, cf. Fig. 3.
  • the rocker 6 Between the arms 8, the rocker 6 carries a bearing bracket 11, which is penetrated by an angled end 12 of a ramp rod 13.
  • the upper end of the actuating rod 13 is also provided with a bend 14. The latter passes through at the level of the upper edge 15 of the inner bucket 3 through a hole 16 in a slide 17 which bifurcates into two legs 18 directed upwards.
  • the legs 18 of the slide 17 projecting beyond the edge ring 20 are guided in grooves 22 of a bearing bracket 23.
  • the edge ring 20 serves to hold the same.
  • the edge ring 20 holds a further bearing bracket 24.
  • Each of the two bearing brackets 23, 24 is equipped with a pin 25, around which two mutually identical cover parts 26 in the form of spheres of eight are supported.
  • a cover opening 27 of a dome 28 of a dome-shaped head 29 of the waste bin 1 is closed by the cover parts 26.
  • the outer surface of the cover is adapted to the dome contour. This is achieved in that the edge 30 of the insertion opening 27 lies on a secant plane of the dome 28.
  • the cover surface of the two cover parts 26 of identical shape protrude above this secant plane and complement the dome 28 to form the dome-shaped head 29. Both cover parts 26 meet in a closing joint 31 in the transverse center plane to the swivel plane.
  • the pins 25 forming the common pivot point of the two cover parts 26 penetrate the spherical eighth sections in the tip region.
  • each cover part is equipped with a pin 32 which dips into a horizontally oriented slot 33 of the associated leg 18.
  • Both cover parts 26 are spring-loaded in the closing direction. This is achieved by means of a tension spring 38, which extends in the tip region of the eighth-ball sections and extends over the closing joint 31, the ends of which are fixed to pin sections 34 of the cover parts 26. Two such tension springs 38 are assigned to the cover parts 26 above the bearing supports 23, 24.
  • the cover parts 26 are each equipped with a bend 35. With these, the cover parts in the closing joint 31 come into contact with one another.
  • the bends 35 exclude the risk of injury and stabilize the ball eighth sections made of thin material.
  • the dome 28 engages over the end edge 21 of the waste bin housing 2.
  • Self-tapping screws 36 shown in FIG. 1 serve to fix it, which reach through both the lower region of the dome 28, the end edge 21 of the waste bin housing and the edge ring 20 and these aforementioned components connect to a solid, related unit.
  • a stop limitation of the downward movement can be generated in that the edge edges of the cover parts 26 opposite the bends 35 act on the edge ring 20.
  • a limit stop could also be adjusted accordingly large path of the foot pedal 10 or the swing arm 6 can be achieved.
  • the limit stop could also be included in the slide path.
  • the waste bin 1 For emptying a filled inner bin 3, the waste bin 1 is to be lifted out of its position slipping over it, the inner bin 3 is to be poured out and then the waste bin housing is put over again.
