Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is a container for in particular household waste, suitable for being removably attached to a main container, more particularly for facilitating the sorting of waste when it is collected, and an assembly made up of such a container then called “additional” attached to the "main" container.
  • the structure clearly projects beyond the container, while in the non-active position it has protruding parts formed by the two pins, which are a cause of discomfort for the user who is likely to cling to it.
  • the problem posed in the invention is to succeed in ensuring that in the non-active position the fastening means are not protruding, that is to say that they almost do not project beyond the general external contour of the additional container. , without interfering with the hanging conditions.
  • the solution provided by the invention consists in that the housing in which the fastening means are retracted is set back in one of the side walls of the additional container and that the volume of this housing and the size of the means fixing means are adapted to each other to obtain a substantially complete retraction of the fixing means in the housing, in the non-active position of said means.
  • This solution has as essential advantageous characteristics to obtain a simple product of use, easily industrializable and practical of maintenance, this without notable additional cost. It also allows the fastening means not to increase the overall height of the additional container when that is unhooked from the main container.
  • the fixing means will consist of a single large tab terminated at a first end by a hook and linked at least in rotation, at a second end, to said additional container at the location of its side wall where said housing is formed, which occupies a important part of this wall.
  • the width of the contact surface between the tab and the edge of the main container makes it possible in particular to obtain good stability of the attachment between the tab and main container.
  • the invention also endeavored to make the operation of switching between the active and non-active positions simple.
  • first means of rotation located in said housing, or close to it, permanently cooperate with second complementary means of rotation, linked to the fixing means, for the passage by tilting of the fixing means between the active position and the non-active position.
  • the invention also aims to optimize the production of the fixing means / housing couple in order to minimize the space taken up on the useful volume of the additional container.
  • the fixing means preferably having a hook shape at their end fixing on the main container, this part is the most bulky in the housing.
  • the solution of the invention is to provide a housing in the form of a ramp inclined relative to the vertical in the normal position of use of the container, the bottom of said housing then being deeper than the top.
  • the solution of the invention consists in pressing the additional container against the main container using the fixing means, which are preferably then rigidly connected to the additional container by means of hooking means which are inserted in a flange located in the upper part of the retraction housing.
  • This solution has the advantage of preventing the additional container from swinging or moving relative to the main container while in no way disturbing the hooking or unhooking of the additional container.
  • the hooking means are inserted into the rim, and conversely during the hooking, the hooking means are released from the rim under the action of the weight. fixing means, of course.
  • the invention also relates to a waste receiving assembly comprising one or more such additional containers and the main container which carries it, the fixing means being carried by the part rear of (each) additional container facing the main container in the fixing position from the first to the second.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 an additional container according to the invention is illustrated, as a whole referenced 1, intended to contain in particular household waste preferably of the same kind, for example metal, paper or glass.
  • This container 1 advantageously made of rigid plastic, is suitable for being mounted, preferably externally, on a waste container 2 of conventional type, of larger dimensions, limited in the upper part by an edge 4a defining the access opening to the container.
  • the container 2 also advantageously made of rigid plastic material, which can be mounted on wheels 10 for its mobility, comprises a cover 6 articulated in rotation on the rear side of the upper access opening 4a, at the top of the rear wall. "23.
  • This container may also include means for locking the cover on the tank 4, such as a lock.
  • the latter has conventionally, at its upper end, a perimeter belt 12 which forms an outer fallen edge reinforcing the edge 4a.
  • This belt 12 here has a stiffened "front" face 14, which is capable of cooperating with a lifting member of a refuse collection vehicle, for the automatic lifting and emptying of the container 2 by this collection vehicle.
  • the container 1 which can for example be made of polyethylene, firstly comprises a waste tank 16 open at 18, here at its upper part 16a, for receiving the waste.
  • the lower end 20 of the tank 16 advantageously has a surface, as illustrated essentially planar, allowing the maintenance in a substantially vertical position of use of the container 1 (with its opening for the waste here oriented upwards) when it is detached from the trash 2 and is placed on a floor or any other bearing surface.
  • the tank 16 (of substantially rectangular section with rounded angles) has four side faces 22, 24, 26 and 28, substantially planar, one of which (here the "rear” face 22), is capable of being disposed substantially along a side wall (here "front") of the container 2.
  • This housing 21 is set back from the plane of the rear face 22 (inside the outer contour of the container 1) and advantageously has the form of a ramp widening downwards, so to approach the contour of the fixing means 3 in the hooking position and in the retracted position, as illustrated in FIG. 1.
  • the tank 16 has a protective and reinforcing strip 32 (preferably perimeter).
  • This belt 32 extends outwards the upper opening edge of the tank which is in this case essentially inclined from the rear face 22 to the opposite front face 28.
  • This belt 32 can be used as a handle or can also have a side (here "front") 30 reinforced to be able to cooperate with the lifting member of the garbage collector vehicle, for lifting and emptying the container 1.
  • FIG. 3 the fixing means of FIG. 1 are seen in more detail, referenced as a whole 3.
  • These relatively rigid means for example made of plastic, are bent at their free end into a hook 46.
  • This hook is fixed at the edge opening the main container is particularly advantageous since it allows an attachment of the additional container 1 on various sides of existing trash cans which were not designed for.
  • the fixing means in the active position or they allow the attachment of the additional container 1 to the main container 2, and in the non-active position where they retract into the housing 21.
  • the fixing means 3 have oblong holes 42 allowing them to be movable in rotation around the shafts 44 fixed on the sides of the housing 21 and in translation along the major axis in section of these oblong holes so that, in the active position, under the action of the weight of the additional container 1 the hooking means 48 in the form of a second hook are inserted into the flange 50 situated at the upper end of the housing 21. Under the action of the weight of the fixing means 3, the means of hooking 48 emerge from this rim 50 as soon as the additional container is detached from the main container.
  • the oblong holes 42 could be made in the housing 21 or close to it and the fixing means 3 have shafts or pins.
  • the fixing means 3 stand above the tank 16 which then has a height h less than that H of the container 2, thus allowing in particular a fixing the container 1 in the upper part of the main bin with its opening 18 placed at the correct height for the user.
  • the container 1 could also include a cover, shown diagrammatically in dotted lines 40 in FIG. 1, suitable for closing the opening 18, as well as possibly means for locking this cover on the tank.
