Abstract

The tipping system, esp. for domestic waste bins (10) has a buffer (110) linked to a bin lifter with a mechanism (131, 132) for deploying and retracting the buffer, operated as the bin is raised and lowered respectively. The buffer, which presses against the surface of a bin when deployed, has at least one hook (111) for engaging with a handle (11) in the middle of the bin. The deployment/retraction mechanism comprises a cam which provides the trajectory of the moving bin, at least one roller (131,132) which is carried by the buffer and interacts with the cam, and a drive motor.

Description

La présente invention concerne un lève-conteneurs comportant un butoir relié à une poutre de basculement des conteneurs.The present invention relates to a container lifter comprising a stopper connected to a container tilting beam.

L'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse dans le domaine du chargement des bennes à ordures ménagères.The invention finds a particularly advantageous application in the field of loading household waste containers.

D'une manière générale, un lève-conteneurs remplit les fonctions qui assurent, dans un premier temps, l'accrochage des conteneurs sur la poutre, la montée de l'ensemble poutre/conteneurs, et le basculement des conteneurs autour de ladite poutre, ainsi que, dans un deuxième temps, les mouvements inverses qui ramènent les conteneurs vidés au sol.In general, a container lifter fulfills the functions which ensure, as a first step, the attachment of the containers to the beam, the mounting of the beam / container assembly, and the tilting of the containers around said beam, as well as, in a second step, the reverse movements which bring the emptied containers back to the ground.

Ainsi, à chaque arrêt de la benne à un point de collecte, le peigne d'accrochage du conteneur sur la poutre du lève-conteneurs doit se trouver à une distance donnée du sol, généralement fixée à 840mm, correspondant à une hauteur valable pour toutes les tailles de conteneurs, alors que le butoir relié à la poutre, qui sert d'appui lors de la manoeuvre de basculement, doit se trouver en dessous de la cornière de prise ventrale des plus petits conteneurs qui en sont munis, c'est-à-dire à environ 250mm du sol.Thus, at each stop of the bucket at a collection point, the container hooking comb on the beam of the container lifter must be at a given distance from the ground, generally set at 840mm, corresponding to a height valid for all container sizes, while the stopper connected to the beam, which serves as a support during the tilting maneuver, must be below the ventral grip angle of the smallest containers which are provided with it, ie about 250mm from the ground.

Il en résulte que la garde au sol des véhicules au cours de leurs déplacements est insuffisante, surtout sur les trajets à chaussées déformées, ce qui expose en permanence les lève-conteneurs au risque d'accidents matériels très pénalisants qui ont pour conséquence l'immobilisation de la benne, avec perte d'exploitation, et des coûts élevés de réparation des lève-conteneurs.As a result, the ground clearance of vehicles during their journeys is insufficient, especially on journeys with deformed roads, which permanently exposes container lifts to the risk of very penalizing material accidents which result in immobilization. tipper, with operating loss, and high repair costs for container lifts.

Pour remédier à ces inconvénients, une solution souvent utilisée dans l'état actuel de la technique, consiste à faire appel à la fonction de levage des lève-conteneurs et à procéder systématiquement à deux manipulations supplémentaires :

  • au moment du départ de chaque point de collecte, une remontée à vide de la poutre avec son butoir après la dépose du dernier conteneur au sol, afin d'obtenir la garde au sol suffisante du butoir,
  • au moment de l'arrivée au point de collecte suivant, une redescente à vide de la poutre avant de prendre un autre conteneur, afin de ramener le peigne à hauteur d'accrochage de ce nouveau conteneur.
To remedy these drawbacks, a solution often used in the current state of the art consists in using the lifting function of the container lifts and systematically carrying out two additional manipulations:
  • at the time of departure from each collection point, an empty ascent of the beam with its stopper after the removal of the last container on the ground, in order to obtain sufficient ground clearance for the stopper,
  • upon arrival at the next collection point, an empty lowering of the beam before taking another container, in order to bring the comb back to the hooking height of this new container.

Ces manipulations supplémentaires sont aussi très pénalisantes, puisqu'effectuées à vide après et avant les séquences utiles de manutention des conteneurs.These additional manipulations are also very penalizing, since they are carried out empty after and before the useful container handling sequences.

Aussi, le problème technique à résoudre par l'objet de la présente invention est de proposer un lève-conteneurs comportant un butoir relié à une poutre de basculement des conteneurs, qui permettrait d'obtenir automatiquement et pendant les séquences utiles, aussi bien le niveau de la poutre assurant l'accrochage des conteneurs, à 840mm du sol, qu'une bonne garde au sol du butoir, supérieur à 400mm.Also, the technical problem to be solved by the object of the present invention is to propose a container lifter comprising a stopper connected to a container tilting beam, which would make it possible to obtain automatically and during the useful sequences, both the level of the beam ensuring the attachment of the containers, at 840mm from the ground, that good clearance on the ground of the buffer, greater than 400mm.

La solution au problème technique posé consiste, selon l'invention en ce que ledit lève-conteneurs comprend un dispositif de déploiement et d'escamotage dudit butoir, actionné respectivement lors des mouvements de montée et de descente de ladite poutre.The solution to the technical problem posed consists, according to the invention in that said container lifter comprises a device for deploying and retracting said stopper, actuated respectively during the upward and downward movements of said beam.

Ainsi, lorsque le lève-conteneurs de l'invention est en position basse, la poutre est à hauteur voulue pour permettre l'accrochage des conteneurs, tandis que le butoir est escamoté à 420mm du sol par exemple, ce qui garantit au véhicule un déplacement en toute sécurité du garage au lieu de collecte ou entre tous les points successifs d'une collecte, sans avoir à effectuer fois les manipulations supplémentaires précitées du lève-conteneurs. Ce dernier se trouve ainsi toujours prêt à prendre un nouveau conteneur et présente une garde au sol suffisante pendant tous les déplacements du véhicule.Thus, when the container lifter of the invention is in the low position, the beam is at the desired height to allow the containers to be hooked, while the stopper is retracted to 420mm from the ground for example, which guarantees the vehicle a displacement in all security of the garage at the collection point or between all the successive points of a collection, without having to carry out the abovementioned additional manipulations of the container lifter. The latter is thus always ready to take a new container and has sufficient ground clearance during all movements of the vehicle.

En fonctionnement, lors de la montée de la poutre, le butoir est déployé de manière à venir en appui contre le conteneur à un niveau offrant le même bras de levier qu'avec les lève-conteneurs connus à butoir fixe, c'est-à-dire à environ 250mm du fond des conteneurs. Inversement, après basculement et vidage du conteneur, le butoir est escamoté pendant la descente de la poutre.In operation, during the rise of the beam, the stopper is deployed so as to come into abutment against the container at a level offering the same lever arm as with known container lifts with fixed stopper, that is to say - say about 250mm from the bottom of the containers. Conversely, after tilting and emptying the container, the stopper is retracted during the descent of the beam.

En d'autres termes, les mouvements de déploiement et d'escamotage du butoir se font en temps masqué, au cours des séquences utiles de manutention des conteneurs, et donc sans que ces opérations n'ajoutent des manipulations supplémentaires en dehors du cycle normal d'utilisation.In other words, the movements of deployment and retraction of the stopper are done in masked time, during the useful sequences for handling the containers, and therefore without these operations adding additional manipulations outside the normal cycle d 'use.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, il est prévu que ledit butoir porte au moins un crochet pour prise ventrale de conteneurs, mis en oeuvre par ledit dispositif de déploiement et d'escamotage. Naturellement, cette disposition avantageuse s'adresse au cas où les conteneurs utilisés sont munis d'une telle prise ventrale, destinée à éviter le renversement des conteneurs au moment de leur basculement.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, it is provided that said stopper carries at least one hook for ventral grip of containers, implemented by said deployment and retraction device. Naturally, this advantageous arrangement is addressed to the case where the containers used are provided with such a ventral grip, intended to avoid the overturning of the containers at the time of their tilting.

La description qui va suivre en regard des dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, fera bien comprendre en quoi consiste l'invention et comment elle peut être réalisée.The description which follows with reference to the appended drawings, given by way of nonlimiting examples, will make it clear what the invention consists of and how it can be implemented.

La figure 1a est une vue de côté d'un lève-conteneurs conforme à l'invention, butoir escamoté.Figure 1a is a side view of a container lifter according to the invention, retracted stopper.

La figure 1b est une vue de côté du lève-conteneurs de la figure 1a, butoir déployé.Figure 1b is a side view of the container lifter of Figure 1a, deployed stopper.

La figure 2 est une vue de côté de l'arrière d'une benne montrant le lève-conteneurs de l'invention dans trois positions fonctionnelles.Figure 2 is a side view of the rear of a bucket showing the container lifter of the invention in three functional positions.

Les figures 1a et 1b montrent en vue de côté un lève-conteneurs 100 comportant un butoir 110, représenté en hachures, relié à une poutre 120 de basculement d'un conteneur 10.FIGS. 1a and 1b show a side view of a container lifter 100 comprising a stop 110, shown in hatching, connected to a beam 120 for tilting a container 10.

Comme l'indiquent les figures 1a et 1b, ledit lève-conteneurs 100 comprend un dispositif de déploiement et d'escamotage permettant d'actionner ledit butoir 110 de manière à l'amener, lors de la montée de la poutre 120, d'une position escamotée, illustrée sur la figure 1a, à une position déployée illustrée sur la figure 1b. En position déployée, le butoir 110 vient en appui contre le conteneur 10, conférant ainsi au lève-conteneurs 100 un bras de levier important au moment du basculement dudit conteneur. Inversement, lors de la descente de la poutre 120, le butoir 110 est amené de la position déployée de la figure 1b à la position escamotée de la figure 1a.As shown in Figures 1a and 1b, said container lifter 100 includes a deployment and retraction device for actuating said stopper 110 so as to bring it, during the rise of the beam 120, a retracted position, illustrated in Figure 1a, to a deployed position illustrated in Figure 1b. In the deployed position, the stopper 110 comes to bear against the container 10, thus giving the container lifter 100 an important lever arm at the time of the tilting of said container. Conversely, during the descent of the beam 120, the stopper 110 is brought from the deployed position of FIG. 1b to the retracted position of FIG. 1a.

Les mouvements du butoir 110 s'effectuent donc en temps masqué au cours du cycle utile de fonctionnement du lève-conteneurs.The movements of the stopper 110 therefore take place in masked time during the useful operating cycle of the container lifter.

En position escamotée, l'extrémité inférieure du butoir 110 est à une hauteur d'au moins 400mm, par exemple 420mm, c'est-à-dire avec une garde au sol suffisante pour assurer des déplacements sans risque de la benne même sur des chaussées très dégradées. Par contre, en position déployée, le butoir 110 est appliqué à environ 250mm du fond du conteneur 10.In the retracted position, the lower end of the stop 110 is at a height of at least 400mm, for example 420mm, that is to say with sufficient ground clearance to ensure safe movements of the bucket even on very degraded roads. On the other hand, in the deployed position, the stopper 110 is applied approximately 250mm from the bottom of the container 10.

On peut observer sur les figures 1a et 1b que le conteneur 10 présente une prise ventrale 11 destinée à retenir ledit conteneur lors de son basculement au-dessus de la trémie de la benne. Il est alors prévu que le butoir 110 porte au moins un crochet 111 susceptible de coopérer avec ladite prise ventrale 11. Bien entendu, le crochet 111 est mis en oeuvre par le même dispositif que celui permettant le déploiement et l'escamotage du butoir 110.It can be observed in FIGS. 1a and 1b that the container 10 has a ventral grip 11 intended to retain said container during its tilting over the hopper of the bucket. It is then expected that the stopper 110 carries at least one hook 111 capable of cooperating with said ventral grip 11. Of course, the hook 111 is implemented by the same device as that allowing the deployment and retraction of the stopper 110.

Conformément aux figures 1a et 1b, ce dispositif comprend une came 130 disposée de part et d'autre de la poutre 120, deux galets 131, 132 portés par le butoir 110 et coopérant avec la came 130, et un moyen moteur d'entraînement du butoir, non représenté sur les figures 1a et 1b mais qui peut être constitué par un ou plusieurs vérins.In accordance with FIGS. 1a and 1b, this device comprises a cam 130 arranged on either side of the beam 120, two rollers 131, 132 carried by the stopper 110 and cooperating with the cam 130, and a drive means for driving the buffer, not shown in Figures 1a and 1b but which may be constituted by one or more cylinders.

La trajectoire du butoir 110 est donc définie par la forme de la came 130 et de la position des galets 131, 132 sur ledit butoir. Naturellement, lorsqu'un crochet 111 est présent sur le butoir, le dessin de la piste de la came 130 doit permettre l'engagement dudit crochet 111 dans la prise ventrale 11 du conteneur 10, ainsi que l'évitement de cette même prise ventrale par le butoir 110.The trajectory of the stopper 110 is therefore defined by the shape of the cam 130 and the position of the rollers 131, 132 on said stopper. Naturally, when a hook 111 is present on the stopper, the design of the track of the cam 130 must allow the engagement of said hook 111 in the ventral grip 11 of the container 10, as well as the avoidance of this same ventral grip by the stopper 110.

Dans le mode de réalisation plus spécialement représenté sur la figure 1b, il apparaît que la trajectoire et la forme du butoir sont telles qu'en position déployée ledit butoir 110 amène la paroi 12 d'accrochage du conteneur 10 à former avec la verticale V un angle sortant +β initial de basculement. Cette disposition très avantageuse permet, compte tenu de l'angle limité du mécanisme de basculement, une augmentation à l'origine de l'angle de vidage des conteneurs et, par conséquent, un meilleur vidage des déchets qui y sont contenus.In the embodiment more particularly represented in FIG. 1b, it appears that the trajectory and the shape of the stopper are such that in the deployed position said stopper 110 causes the wall 12 for hooking the container 10 to form with the vertical V a outgoing angle + initial tilt β. This very advantageous arrangement allows, taking into account the limited angle of the tilting mechanism, an increase at the origin of the emptying angle of the containers and, consequently, better emptying of the waste contained therein.

De même, la figure 1a montre que, le butoir 110 étant en position escamotée, le lève-conteneurs 100 est apte à recevoir des conteneurs 10 qui, sur un sol incliné S, présente une paroi 12 d'accrochage formant un angle rentrant -α avec la verticale V. Cet avantage résulte directement du caractère escamotable du butoir 110 puisqu'en effet si ledit butoir était en permanence en position déployée, il formerait obstacle à l'accrochage du conteneur 10 et la collerette 13 dudit conteneur ne pourrait être placée au-dessus du peigne 121 de la poutre 120.Likewise, FIG. 1a shows that, with the stopper 110 in the retracted position, the container lifter 100 is able to receive containers 10 which, on inclined ground S, has a wall 12 for attachment forming a re-entrant angle -α with the vertical V. This advantage results directly from the retractable nature of the stopper 110 since in fact if said stopper was permanently in the deployed position, it would form an obstacle to the attachment of the container 10 and the flange 13 of said container could not be placed at the above the comb 121 of the beam 120.

La figure 2 résume sur un seul schéma le fonctionnement du lève-conteneurs de l'invention. Dans une première position basse, le butoir 110 et le crochet 111 sont escamotés, prêts à recevoir un conteneur 10 même avec un angle rentrant -α. En position intermédiaire, avant basculement, le butoir 110 est déployé en appui contre le conteneur 10 et en donnant à la paroi 12 d'accrochage un angle sortant initial +β, tandis que le crochet 111 est engagé dans la prise ventrale 11. Enfin, la figure 2 montre le conteneur 10 en position basculée, le butoir 110 formant bras de levier et le crochet 111 retenant le conteneur par la prise ventrale 11 pour assurer à ce dernier une meilleure prise au vidage.Figure 2 summarizes in a single diagram the operation of the container lifter of the invention. In a first low position, the stopper 110 and the hook 111 are retracted, ready to receive a container 10 even with a re-entrant angle -α. In the intermediate position, before tilting, the stopper 110 is deployed in abutment against the container 10 and giving the wall 12 for attachment an initial outgoing angle + β, while the hook 111 is engaged in the ventral grip 11. Finally, Figure 2 shows the container 10 in the tilted position, the stopper 110 forming a lever arm and the hook 111 retaining the container by the ventral grip 11 to ensure the latter a better grip for emptying.
