Abstract

The refuse collection vehicle comprises a conventional two axle truck with a collection container (18) with a rear opening. The compactor is mounted on a single axle trailer (20) which is coupled to the rear of the truck and into which the refuse can be tipped. The compactor compresses the refuse and pushes it into the container. A folding strut on the trailer drawbar enables it to be left free standing when the truck is emptied. The trailer has a simple drawbar coupling to the rear of the truck and with flexible bellows (30) for a tight connection to the rear of the container. The bottom of the trailer is shaped to collect the refuse and houses the compactor. Two telescopic, sprung arms connect the sides of the trailer with the truck.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Müllsammelfahrzeug mit einem Sammelcontainer und einer daran ansetzbaren Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit.The invention relates to a refuse collection vehicle with a collection container and a conveying and compacting unit that can be attached to it.

Es sind bereits Müllsammelfahrzeuge mit Wechselcontainern bekannt, die die Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit vor bzw. hinter dem Fahrerhaus aufweisen und somit die Möglichkeit haben, einen gefüllten Container über das Heck des Fahrzeuges abzusetzen. Nachteilig hierbei ist, daß in der Regel für das Müllsammelfahrzeug keine Standardchassis zu verwenden sind und daß das Wechseln der Container nicht über übliche Hakengeräte erfolgen kann. Aus der EP 364 835 B ist es weiterhin bekannt, daß ein an der Rückseite eines Wechselcontainers angeordnetes Ladewerk, das eine Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit mit Heckschüttung umfaßt, bei jedem Containerwechsel abgeklappt und anschließend wieder abgeklappt werden kann. Dieses Prinzip erfordert aufgrund der höheren Gewichte im Heckbereich des Fahrzeuges ein Dreiachschassis und zudem ist es umständlich und zeitintensiv, die Heckschüttung bei jedem Containerwechsel auf- und abzuklappen. Des weiteren ist für dieses System aufgrund des Erfordernisses, die Abmessungen der Heckschüttung geringzuhalten, eine spezielle Verdichtungseinheit, z.B. nach dem Schraubenverdichtungsprinzip, erforderlich.Garbage collection vehicles with interchangeable containers are already known which have the conveying and compacting unit in front of or behind the driver's cab and thus have the possibility of depositing a filled container over the rear of the vehicle. The disadvantage here is that generally no standard chassis are to be used for the refuse collection vehicle and that the container cannot be changed using conventional hook devices. From EP 364 835 B it is also known that a loading unit arranged on the rear of an interchangeable container, which comprises a conveying and compacting unit with rear loading, can be folded down with each container change and then folded down again. Due to the higher weights in the rear of the vehicle, this principle requires a three-axle chassis and is also cumbersome and time-consuming to open and close the rear loading every time you change containers. Furthermore, a special compression unit, for example according to the screw compression principle, is required for this system due to the need to keep the dimensions of the rear bulkhead small.

Ein gattungsgemäßes Müllsammelfahrzeug ist in der DE 93 03 002 U beschrieben. Dort ist eine heckseitig an einen Wechselcontainer ansetzbare Baueinheit, die eine Presse und eine Schüttung umfaßt, beschrieben. Während des Sammeleinsatzes des Müllsammelfahrzeuges hängt diese Baueinheit am Container und bedingt daher, wie der bereits zuvor diskutierte Stand der Technik, in der Regel ein verstärktes Dreiachschassis. Zum Abstellen weist die vorbekannte Baueinheit mit Presse und Schüttung drei hydraulisch betätigbare ein- und austeleskopierbare Füße auf. Hierdurch baut die Baueinheit kompliziert und schwer.A generic waste collection vehicle is described in DE 93 03 002 U. There, a unit that can be attached to the rear of an interchangeable container and comprises a press and a bed is described. During the collective use of the refuse collection vehicle, this structural unit hangs on the container and therefore, like the prior art discussed above, generally requires a reinforced three-axle chassis. For parking, the previously known assembly with press and bed has three hydraulically operable feet that can be telescoped in and out. This makes the assembly complex and heavy.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Müllsammelfahrzeug der gattungsgemäßen Art derart weiterzubilden, daß ein einfaches und nicht weiter verstärktes Fahrzeugchassis verwendet werden kann und/oder daß die Zuladekapazität des aufzunehmenden Abfalls verbessert wird.The object of the invention is therefore to develop a refuse collection vehicle of the generic type in such a way that a simple and not further strengthened vehicle chassis can be used and / or that the loading capacity of the waste to be picked up is improved.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe ausgehend von einem gattungsgemäßen Müllsammelfahrzeug durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Hauptanspruchs gelöst. Grundgedanke der erfinderischen Lösung ist es, daß die Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit in einem an das Müllsammelfahrzeug ankoppelbaren und fahrbaren Anhänger integriert ist. Hierdurch kann ein Müllsammelfahrzeug mit einem einfachen zweiachsigen Chassis verwendet werden, da das Gewicht der Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit nicht auf dem Fahrzeugchassis auflagert.According to the invention, this object is achieved on the basis of a generic refuse collection vehicle by the characterizing features of the main claim. The basic idea of the inventive solution is that the conveying and compacting unit is integrated in a trailer which can be coupled to the refuse collection vehicle and is movable. As a result, a refuse collection vehicle with a simple two-axle chassis can be used because the weight of the The conveyor and compaction unit is not supported on the vehicle chassis.

Das erfindungsgemäße Müllsammelfahrzeug kann derart ausgeführt sein, daß ein zweiachsiges Müllsammelfahrzeug mit einem Standardhakengerät oder alternativ mit einem Wechselcontainer mit klappbaren Standbeinen mit einem koppelbaren Anhänger verbunden wird. Ebenso kann der Motorwagen einen festen, nicht wechselbaren Aufbau aufweisen oder als Hinterkipper ausgeführt sein. Der angekoppelte Anhänger weist beispielsweise eine preisgünstige Standardförder- und Verdichtereinheit auf.The refuse collection vehicle according to the invention can be designed such that a two-axle refuse collection vehicle is connected to a standard hook device or alternatively to an interchangeable container with foldable legs with a couplable trailer. Likewise, the motor vehicle can have a fixed, non-exchangeable structure or be designed as a rear tipper. The coupled trailer has, for example, an inexpensive standard conveyor and compressor unit.

Die erfindungsgemäße Kombination weist neben der Tatsache, daß Standardkomponenten verwendet werden können viele weitere Vorteile auf. Zum einen kann der Motorwagen einen gefüllten Container nach dem Abkoppeln des Anhängers in einfacher Weise absetzen und somit drei Containerkammern, z.B. nach Abfallfranktionen sortiert, für den Weitertransport bereitstellen. Des weiteren kann der Transport zur Behandlungs- oder Beseitigungsanlage vom Motorwagen als Einzelfahrzeug, das eine hohe Nutzlast aufweist, da das Gewicht für Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit entfällt, oder mit einem Containertransportanhänger durchgeführt werden.In addition to the fact that standard components can be used, the combination according to the invention has many other advantages. On the one hand, the motor vehicle can set down a filled container in a simple manner after uncoupling the trailer and thus three container chambers, e.g. sorted by waste franking, ready for further transport. Furthermore, the transport to the treatment or disposal system from the motor vehicle as a single vehicle, which has a high payload, since the weight for the conveyor and compacting unit is eliminated, or can be carried out with a container transport trailer.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann der Anhänger weiter eine Schüttung für Müllbehälter umfassen. Hier weist die beanspruchte Kombination den Vorteil auf, daß das Müllsammelfahrzeug bei einem Einsatz für Müllbehälter mit verschiedenen Aufnahmevorrichtungen durch einfaches Auswechseln der Anhänger, die jeweils eine spezifische Schüttung aufweisen, umgerüstet werden kann. Weiterhin kann die am Anhänger vorzusehende Schüttung entsprechend dem zu entleerenden Behältersystem wechselbar ausgeführt sein. Hier ist es möglich, daß entsprechend dem zu entleerenden Müllbehältersystem die Schüttung oder der komplette Anhänger auf einem Stellplatz im Sammelrevier verbleiben kann. Das Müllsammelfahrzeug kann dann einfach verschiedene Sammelreviere, in denen unterschiedliche Müllbehältersysteme zum Einsatz kommen, anfahren und die jeweilige Schüttung in einfacher Art und Weise ankoppeln.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the trailer can further comprise a bed for waste containers. Here, the combination claimed has the advantage that the refuse collection vehicle can be converted by simply replacing the trailers, each of which has a specific filling, when used for refuse containers with different receiving devices. Furthermore, the bed to be provided on the trailer can be according to the emptying container system can be designed to be exchangeable. Here it is possible that, depending on the garbage container system to be emptied, the bed or the entire trailer can remain on a parking space in the collecting area. The refuse collection vehicle can then simply drive to different collection areas, in which different refuse container systems are used, and couple the respective fill in a simple manner.

Ein weiterer Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Müllsammelfahrzeugs liegt darin, daß es einen Sammelcontainer nach dem Abkoppeln des Anhängers leicht auf einen Eisenbahnwaggon übersetzen oder von dem Waggon aufnehmen kann. Dies ist beispielsweise bei der Lösung der eingangs diskutierten EP 364 835 B nicht möglich.A further advantage of the refuse collection vehicle according to the invention is that it can easily translate a collection container onto a railroad car after it has been uncoupled, or pick it up from the car. This is not possible, for example, in the solution to EP 364 835 B discussed at the outset.

Das Müllsammelfahrzeug kann beispielsweise über mindestens zwei teleskopierbare oder gegen Federkraft dehnbare Längslenker, die beispielsweise in selbstverriegelnde Schnellkupplungen greifen, mit dem Anhänger verbunden. Somit ist sichergestellt, daß ein kurzer Abstand zwischen dem Heckladewerk auf dem Anhänger und dem Wechselcontainer besteht.The refuse collection vehicle can be connected to the trailer, for example, via at least two telescopic or spring-loaded trailing arms, which, for example, engage in self-locking quick couplings. This ensures that there is a short distance between the rear loading mechanism on the trailer and the swap body.

Alternativ kann die Kupplung zum Anhänger abkoppelbar und starr sein, wenn die Achse des Anhängers, ähnlich einer Nachlaufachse als Lenkachse ausgeführt ist.Alternatively, the coupling to the trailer can be uncoupled and rigid if the axle of the trailer is designed as a steering axle, similar to a trailing axle.

Vorzugsweise ist der Anhänger mit Blechen oder Gummilippen versehen, die im angekoppelten Zustand in die Einfüllöffnung des Sammelcontainers ragen und somit auch während einer Kurvenfahrt oder während des Verdichtungsvorganges des aufgenommenen Abfalls die Dichtigkeit zwischen dem Sammelcontainer und der auf dem Anhänger vorgesehenen Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit sicherstellen. Zusätzlich kann zwischen dem Anhänger und dem auf dem Müllsammelfahrzeug angeordneten Container ein Faltenbalg angeordnet sein.The trailer is preferably provided with sheets or rubber lips which, in the coupled state, protrude into the filling opening of the collecting container and thus also ensure the tightness between the bends during cornering or during the compression process of the waste which is picked up Ensure the collecting container and the conveyor and compaction unit provided on the trailer. In addition, a bellows can be arranged between the trailer and the container arranged on the refuse collection vehicle.

Die Schüttung und die Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit ist vorzugsweise auf einem Anhänger mit einem Achsaggregat aufgebaut, um die Wendigkeit des Zuges, beispielsweise bei Kurvenfahren, nicht zu beeinträchtigen. Um dem abgekoppelten Anhänger einen sicheren Stand zu verleihen, kann ein Stützbein an der Anhängerdeichsel ausklappbar vorgesehen sein.The bed and the conveying and compacting unit is preferably constructed on a trailer with an axle unit in order not to impair the maneuverability of the train, for example when cornering. In order to give the uncoupled trailer a secure stand, a support leg can be provided on the trailer drawbar, which can be folded out.

Ein Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Müllsammelfahrzeuges besteht auch darin, daß die aufgebaute Förder- und Verdichtungseinheit eine preisgünstige Standardeinheit sein kann.An advantage of the refuse collection vehicle according to the invention is also that the conveyor and compacting unit can be an inexpensive standard unit.

Das Motorfahrzeug kann mit einem üblichen Hakengerät versehen sein. Somit kann der sogenannte MSTS-Container (Multi-Service-Transport-System-Container) mit einer auf seiner Heckklappe montierten Hakenöse aufgenommen werden, wobei die Einfüllöffnung des Containers dabei nach hinten weist.The motor vehicle can be provided with a conventional hook device. The so-called MSTS container (multi-service transport system container) can thus be accommodated with a hook eyelet mounted on its tailgate, the filling opening of the container pointing towards the rear.

Ferner ist es möglich, daß der Container mit dem bekannten schwenkbaren Aufstellrahmen senkrecht abgestellt werden kann, wobei sich ebenfalls die Hakenöse an der Heckklappe des Containers befinden muß.It is also possible that the container can be parked vertically with the known swiveling mounting frame, the hook eyelet also having to be located on the tailgate of the container.

Alternativ dazu kann der Wechselcontainer mit klappbaren Stützbeinen versehen sein, auf denen der Container nach einer Niveauabsenkung der Luftfederung des Chassis stehenbleibt. Das Fahrzeug kann anschließend unter dem Container fortfahren.Alternatively, the interchangeable container can be provided with foldable support legs, on which the container remains after the chassis air suspension has been lowered. The vehicle can then under the container Continue.

Das Müllsammelfahrzeug 10 gemäß der hier vorliegenden Ausführungsform weist einen zweiachsigen Motorwagen 12 auf, der mit einem zusätzlichen Hilfsrahmen 14 ausgestattet ist. Der Hilfsrahmen 14 trägt vorzugsweise ein als solches bekanntes Hakengerät zum Auf- und Abnehmen eines Wechselcontainers 18. Ein einachsiger Anhänger 20 ist über eine Deichsel 22 an das Motorfahrzeug 12 ankoppelbar. In der rechten Darstellung gemäß Fig. 1 ist der Anhänger 20 im angekoppelten Zustand dargestellt, während in der Fig. 1 im linken Teil ein nicht angekoppelter Anhänger dargestellt ist.The refuse collection vehicle 10 according to the present embodiment has a two-axle motor vehicle 12 which is equipped with an additional subframe 14. The auxiliary frame 14 preferably carries a hook device known as such for picking up and taking off an interchangeable container 18. A uniaxial trailer 20 can be coupled to the motor vehicle 12 via a drawbar 22. 1, the trailer 20 is shown in the coupled state, while in FIG. 1, a non-coupled trailer is shown in the left part.

Der Anhänger weist eine als solche bekannte Förder- und Verdichtereinheit 24 und eine ebenfalls als solche bekannte Schüttung 28 auf. Am Anhänger 20 sind beidseitig an Drehscharnieren befestigte Blechwände 26 derart angelenkt, so daß sie in den Wechselcontainer 18 soweit hineinragen, daß der Spalt zwischen Anhänger 20 und Wechselcontainer 18 überbrückt wird. Hierdurch ist sichergestellt, daß bei Kurvenfahrt des Anhängerzuges und bei dem Preßvorgang des Abfalls keine undichte Stelle zwischen dem Motorwagen 12 und dem Anhänger 22 entsteht. Die Blechwände werden aus optischen Gründen mit zusätzlichen Faltenbälgen 30 überdeckt, die am Anhänger 20 befestigt sind.The trailer has a delivery and compression unit 24 known as such and a bed 28 also known as such. Sheet metal walls 26 which are attached to swivel hinges on both sides are articulated on the trailer 20 such that they protrude into the interchangeable container 18 to such an extent that the gap between the trailer 20 and interchangeable container 18th is bridged. This ensures that there is no leakage between the motor vehicle 12 and the trailer 22 when the trailer train is cornering and when the waste is pressed. For visual reasons, the sheet metal walls are covered with additional bellows 30 which are attached to the trailer 20.

Der Anhänger 20 ist zum einen über die Deichsel 22 mittig und schwenkbar in bekannter Art und Weise mit dem Motorwagen 12 koppelbar. Zusätzlich sind beidseitig federelastische Befestigungshaken 32 vorgesehen, die z.B. über einen nicht dargestellten Hebelmechanismus von Hand gespannt und entriegelt werden können. Die Verriegelungshaken 32 sind drehbar über Bolzen 34 an der seitlichen Außenverkleidung des Anhängers 20 befestigt. Zur Verriegelung werden die Haken 32 um die Bolzen 34 geschwenkt und über eine nicht dargestellte Vorrichtung gespannt und über die Bolzen 36 gelegt. Anschließend wird die Vorspannung der federelastischen Verriegelungshaken 32 aufgehoben. Beim Ankoppeln wird dann der Anhänger 20 über entsprechende und hier nicht näher dargestellte Leitungen mit dem Hydrauliksystem bzw. dem Elektrikkreislauf des Motorwagens verbunden.On the one hand, the trailer 20 can be coupled centrally and pivotably to the motor vehicle 12 via the drawbar 22 in a known manner. In addition, spring-elastic fastening hooks 32 are provided on both sides, which e.g. can be tensioned and unlocked by hand via a lever mechanism, not shown. The locking hooks 32 are rotatably fastened to the lateral outer lining of the trailer 20 by means of bolts 34. For locking, the hooks 32 are pivoted about the bolts 34 and stretched over a device, not shown, and placed over the bolts 36. Then the bias of the spring-elastic locking hook 32 is released. When coupling, the trailer 20 is then connected to the hydraulic system or the electrical circuit of the motor vehicle via corresponding lines (not shown here).

Der Anhänger 20 kann über die im Heckbereich angeordnete handelsübliche Schüttung 28, die auf das jeweils zu entleerende Behältersystem abgestimmt ist, einen Müllbehälter 38 anheben, entleeren und absetzen, wie dies im Stand der Technik vorbekannt ist.The trailer 20 can lift, empty and set down a waste container 38 via the commercial bed 28 arranged in the rear area, which is matched to the respective container system to be emptied, as is known in the prior art.

Der Anhänger 20 weist, wie in Fig. 2 dargestellt, eine bogenförmig ausgebildete Bodenwanne 40 auf. Der Müllbehälter 38 wird in diese bogenförmig ausgebildete Bodenwanne 40 entleert. Zur Förderung und Verdichtung des Abfalls fährt eine über einen Hydraulikzylinder 42 angetriebene Einheit, bestehend aus gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Platten 44 und 46 über die Bodenwanne 40. Dabei beschreibt das äußerste Ende der jeweiligen Platte 46 einen Kreisbogen. Durch das Entlangführen der Platten 44 und 46 über die Bodenwanne 40 wird der Abfall aus der Bodenwanne 40 in den Container 18 gefördert. Durch das Einfahren in den Container 18 erfolgt die Verdichtung.The trailer 20, as shown in FIG. 2, has an arcuate floor pan 40. The garbage container 38 is emptied into this arched floor pan 40. To promote and compact the waste drives a unit driven by a hydraulic cylinder 42, consisting of plates 44 and 46 which are connected to one another in an articulated manner via the floor pan 40. The outermost end of the respective plate 46 describes an arc. By passing the plates 44 and 46 over the floor pan 40, the waste from the floor pan 40 is conveyed into the container 18. The compaction takes place by moving into the container 18.

Der Anhänger 20 ist als Einachser ausgeführt. Zum sicheren und aufrechten Abstellen des Anhängers 20 nach Abkoppeln vom Motorfahrzeug 12 ist ein Stützbein 48 an der Deichsel 22 verschwenkbar angelenkt.The trailer 20 is designed as a single axle. For safe and upright parking of the trailer 20 after uncoupling from the motor vehicle 12, a support leg 48 is pivotally articulated on the drawbar 22.
