Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refuse collection and transport system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a waste collection and transport system has become known in which both the collecting container or the waste container and the waste vehicle itself are divided into several chambers by means of at least one partition that take up different waste fractions.
  • the garbage container is emptied when it is emptied by means of a filling or pouring device on the garbage vehicle in such a way that the respective chambers in the garbage container and in the garbage vehicle remain assigned to one another, ie. H. the individual garbage fractions remain separate from one another in the garbage truck.
  • This system has become known as a so-called multi-chamber waste system in numerous literature publications (e.g. VDI-News No. 45 of November 11, 1976, page 16).
  • the storage compartments in the garbage truck are separated either by vertical longitudinal partition walls with storage compartments arranged next to one another or by means of, for. B. a horizontal longitudinal partition with stacked storage spaces for the individual waste fractions.
  • the partitions are each arranged in the longitudinal direction of the garbage truck.
  • the Partition in the garbage truck is always continued into the bed area of the vehicle and is generally aligned with the partition of the attached multi-chamber garbage container.
  • a multi-chamber waste system which has a vertical partition in the vehicle with a flush opening for this purpose and a partition for a corresponding waste container with an adapted partition in the waste container.
  • a partition is provided which forms an extension of the partition wall of the refuse container in order to keep the refuse fractions separate until they are filled into the refuse vehicle.
  • EP-A-0 314 238 has disclosed another multi-chamber waste system consisting of a vehicle and a multi-chamber waste container, in which the vehicle has a horizontal partition.
  • the rear loading wall is designed in such a way that there are upper and lower filling openings which extend over the entire width of the vehicle.
  • the upper vehicle storage space is connected to the upper filling opening and the lower vehicle storage space is connected to the lower filling opening. Since the parting plane for the upper and the lower filling opening is not aligned with the horizontal vehicle partition, a rigid auxiliary partition or sliding plate is provided, which forms a kind of angled extension of the vehicle partition. This auxiliary partition or sliding plate then also forms the parting plane for the different waste fractions, i.e.
  • waste collection systems also allow so-called mono garbage bins to be emptied with only one specific waste fraction.
  • the mono waste container with its container opening is assigned to the respective dump opening on the vehicle, so that, for example, only the upper filling opening or only the lower filling opening is each loaded with waste.
  • the known system also has a horizontal longitudinal partition in the garbage truck.
  • a fill opening is connected via a channel or connecting shaft to the lower storage space of the garbage truck.
  • a loading trough that can be pivoted about a horizontal axis of rotation, onto which the further waste fraction is tipped over a corresponding dump opening and which - after carrying out an upward pivoting movement - conveys the waste fraction into the upper storage space.
  • the loading trough therefore serves in this known system for receiving a waste fraction and the subsequent one Transport to the upper storage space.
  • the loading trough always has the task of sealing off the lower storage space during the emptying process of the waste container, and temporarily absorbing the collected waste fraction for further transport.
  • a multi-chamber refuse collection vehicle has also become known which has a plurality of stowage compartments lying one above the other.
  • a filler for a storage space underneath is provided under a roof opening closed by a cover.
  • This known device has the disadvantage that it is not possible to empty several types of waste at different levels at the same time. Only one type of waste for a specific storage space in the refuse collection vehicle can be entered into the filling opening provided on the roof of the vehicle.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of further developing the core idea of EP-B1 0 535 072 and of creating a waste collection and transport system which can be used universally and in which the loading of a single-chamber or multi-chamber waste vehicle with both non-divided mono waste containers as well as by means of divided multi-chamber waste containers.
  • a multi-chamber garbage truck in connection with a multi-chamber garbage container, it should be possible to largely decouple the respective existing partition walls of garbage truck and garbage container.
  • the simplest possible technical device for supplying the garbage from the garbage bins to the storage space in the garbage truck should be provided, different garbage bins being usable.
  • it is an object of the invention to achieve the flexibility of the system by means of separate assemblies on the vehicle.
  • the garbage collection and transport system initially has the same advantage as EP 0 535 072 that a basic decoupling of the arrangement of the dump opening on the garbage truck is created from the arrangement of the partition wall to form storage spaces in the garbage truck.
  • the present invention also uses the principle of a collecting flap or loading trough which can be pivoted about a horizontal pivot axis.
  • the core idea of the present invention is, inter alia, to use the loading trough known per se not only as a collecting device per se, but also as a variable loading and storage device which at the same time forms a rear closure of the vehicle storage space.
  • the catch flap or loading tub can be attached both to the individual container or also to the vehicle-bound pouring device or to the rear part.
  • the loading trough preferably also serves as an extended partition wall of the vehicle partition wall itself, in order thereby to obtain an individual adaptation to the waste container.
  • the loading trough is a kind of variable partition wall of a pouring device itself, so that, depending on the garbage container attached, the loading trough can accordingly be aligned with a partition wall or wall of the waste container. Both multi-chamber waste containers and mono containers can be emptied, since the loading tub can adapt to the respective wall sections.
  • the loading tray serves as a compression flap for clearing the respective storage spaces.
  • the loading tub is used as the rear end of the rear wall, so that e.g. the rear part can be folded away without opening the storage space in the garbage truck.
  • the loading tub is therefore part of the rear rear end of the vehicle storage space.
  • the lower storage space is consequently not reached by a discharge chute or a recess in the loading tub itself, but only the corresponding positioning of the loading tub can cause the storage spaces to be separated, with corresponding feed chutes being formed in connection with the pouring device.
  • the additional function of clearing the garbage and influencing each other two superimposed loading flaps improves the function of the system according to the invention.
  • a particular advantage results from a possible container construction of the system, ie it is also possible to arrange several containers one above the other.
  • multi-compartment refuse containers with transverse and / or with longitudinally arranged partition walls can also be emptied in the refuse container. This is done by segmenting the loading troughs in a width that is largely adapted to the respective chambers of the refuse container to be emptied, and - if necessary - with corresponding vertical intermediate wall sections for the lateral limitation of the adjacent filling openings.
  • an undivided storage space i.e. a mono garbage truck
  • a mutual attachment of the approximately central loading tray or another, e.g. Upper loading pan on the container itself and / or on the loading tail serve to ensure that even undivided storage space can be emptied without any problems.
  • the vehicle can be used both as a multi-chamber and as a mono refuse vehicle.
  • the refuse collection vehicle 1 has a lower vehicle floor 2, an upper vehicle roof 3 and a horizontal partition 4 running in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, in order to enclose the refuse collection vehicle in one to separate upper storage space 5 for receiving a waste fraction A and a lower storage space 6 for receiving a waste fraction B.
  • the storage spaces 5, 6 can also be formed by two or more containers 60, 61, 62 placed one above the other, as shown in FIGS. 10b and 10e.
  • the rear part 7 or the loading tail of the refuse collection vehicle is equipped with a filling or pouring device 8 which is used for the separate supply of different waste materials from one Garbage container 9 is used in the associated storage space 5, 6 of the vehicle 1.
  • the waste container 9 can consist of a non-subdivided “mono” waste container 10 (see FIGS. 4a to 4d). It can also be constructed as a so-called multi-chamber waste container 11, 12, in which a partition 13, which can be moved if necessary, separates the waste container into e.g. B. two or more chambers 14, 15 for receiving the respective waste fraction A, B is divided.
  • the multi-chamber waste container 11 has a transverse partition wall 13 which is oriented transversely to the rear part 7 when the waste container is attached to the waste vehicle. It is also aligned parallel to the axis of rotation 16 of the impellers 17 or parallel to the axis of rotation 43 of the lid 44 of the refuse container 11.
  • the multi-chamber waste container 12 as shown in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 5 to 7, has a longitudinally oriented partition wall 13 ', which in a vertical plane, ie. H. is aligned perpendicular to the rear part 7.
  • Fig. 1a also shows a cross-shaped garbage container with four individual chambers, as will be described in more detail below.
  • the rear area of the refuse collection vehicle also has a rear part 7, the lower wall section 18 of which has an inner or end wall 19 pointing into the interior of the vehicle, circular segment-like or cylindrical in side view.
  • This cylindrical end wall 19 represents the inner boundary of the filling or pouring device 8 flanged onto the refuse vehicle.
  • the upper region of the wall section 18 is designed as a support surface 20 for the refuse container 9, with a Angle ⁇ ⁇ 50 ° with respect to a vertical plane 21 which is aligned parallel to the rear part 7 of the refuse collection vehicle.
  • the angle of inclination ⁇ corresponds approximately to the angle of inclination ⁇ of the inclination of the partition 13 in FIG. 2 with respect to a corresponding vertical plane 21 '.
  • the garbage truck 1 also has two loading or loading devices 22, 23, which are also referred to as loading trays or loading hatches.
  • a first pivoting loading trough 22 with a horizontal pivot axis 24 is arranged in the region of the rear end 26 of the horizontal partition 4.
  • the upper loading trough 23 is positioned with its horizontal pivot axis 25 in the area of the rear end 27 of the upper vehicle roof 3.
  • each waste container 9 is therefore assigned two loading trays 22, 23 located next to one another. If, for example, two garbage bins 9 with a transverse partition are placed next to one another on the pouring device 8, two adjacent loading trays 22, 23 are correspondingly required.
  • the lower loading trough 22 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has an upper loading surface 28 which is curved or flat in cross section, the free end or the end edge 29 of which extends on an imaginary circular cylinder surface 30 about the pivot axis 24.
  • the cylindrical surface 30 spanned by a circle runs parallel and closely adjacent to the segment of a circle which is circular in cross section End wall 19.
  • the end wall 19 in the form of a segment of a circle therefore forms a radius r 1 about the axis of rotation 24, the radius r 1 being equal to or slightly larger than the radius r 2 of the circular cylinder surface 30.
  • the imaginary or spanned circular cylinder surface 30 is extended beyond the upper end edge 31 of the end wall 19, so that the loading tub 22 can extend with its end edge 29 at least into the central region of the waste container 9, 11.
  • the multi-chamber waste container 11 is placed obliquely on the filling device 8 in such a way that the partition wall 13 of the waste container 11 is aligned with its front end edge 32 approximately with the end edge 29 of the loading tub 22.
  • the projection length "a" of the loading surface 28 of the loading tub 22 from the pivot axis 24 to the end edge 29 or the radius r 2 is therefore such that it can approximately reach the end edge 32 of the partition 13 of the multi-chamber waste container 11. This is achieved in particular by the tilting movement of the waste container 11 by the angle ⁇ on the pouring device 8.
  • the content reaches z. B. the garbage fraction A from the upper chamber 14 of the multi-chamber garbage container 11 shown in Figures 1 to 3 on the loading surface 28 and can be supplied from there to the upper storage space 5 of the garbage truck 1, which is intended for receiving the garbage fraction A.
  • the loading trough 22 accordingly represents an extended partition of the horizontal partition 4 in the refuse collection vehicle, the end edge 29 of which can be attached to the end edge 32 of the partition 13 of the multi-chamber refuse container 11.
  • the loading tub 22 therefore forms in its upper area a through shaft 34 for the upper waste fraction A in the waste container 11 and a lower through shaft or discharge shaft 35 for the lower waste fraction B arranged in the waste container 11.
  • the upper loading trough 23 is also provided, which has a wall section 36 which is directed downward and is circular in cross section.
  • the outer end edge 37 of the upper loading pan 23 is arranged at a distance c from the pivot axis 25, which corresponds to the pivot radius r 3 on the circular arc 57.
  • This distance c corresponds approximately to the inner height h 1 of the upper storage space 5.
  • the distance a between points 24, 29 of the loading tray 22 corresponds approximately to the height h 2 of the lower storage space 6.
  • the vertically positioned loading trays 22 ', 23' form a rear end of the refuse vehicle 1 for closing the storage space chamber 5, 6.
  • Both the loading trough 22 and the loading trough 23 have a V-shaped cross section in their respective wall sections 38, 39 opposite the circular wall section 28, 36 in order to achieve a high load-bearing capacity or surface pressure force on the respective surfaces of the loading troughs 22, 23.
  • the loading pan 22 is shown in alignment with the partition 13 of the garbage container 11.
  • the loading tub 22 "is shown with its end edge 29 aligned with the front horizontal front side edge 33 of the waste container 11, so that the other waste fraction contained in the chamber 15 would only be emptied into the upper storage space 5.
  • the loading tub 22 "consequently closes off the lower through shaft 35. This could be necessary if the entire contents of the upper waste container 9, 11 are to be placed in the upper storage space 5. In particular, this also applies to the emptying of a mono waste container to be described below.
  • FIGS. 3a to 3d The emptying process of a multi-chamber waste container 11 with a transversely oriented partition 13 is shown again in FIGS. 3a to 3d.
  • 3a corresponds to the representation of the arrangement according to FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the loading tub 22 is aligned with the partition 13, so that the upper refuse fraction A from the upper chamber 14 of the refuse container 11 via the loading area 28 to the upper storage space 5 of the garbage truck 1 arrives.
  • the waste fraction B passes from the lower chamber 15 of the waste container 11 through the lower passage or discharge shaft 35 into the lower storage space 6 of the refuse vehicle 1. If the two chambers 14, 15 are emptied, the multi-chamber Waste container 11 removed from the upper fill fill opening 40.
  • the lower loading pan 22 is first pivoted clockwise until the free end edge 29 and thus the cylindrical surface 28 are approximately aligned with the circular arc 57 of the outer end edge 37 of the upper loading pan 23. This corresponds approximately to the position of the loading tub shown in dashed lines 22 "in Fig. 2.
  • the upper loading pan 23 can also be rotated clockwise, so that its outer end edge 37 passes approximately in the area of the bearing surface 20, as shown in Fig. 3b. From this position then by further rotation the upper loading pan 23 in a clockwise direction the garbage fraction A is cleared from the loading area 28 of the loading tub 22 which is circular in cross-section, as shown in Fig. 3c in the lower end position of the loading tub 23.
  • the arcuate design of the loading area 28 of the lower loading tub 22 accordingly has the Advantage that the outer end edge 37 of the upper loading pan 23 can slide on it.
  • the lower loading tub 22 can also be formed with a flat surface 28.
  • This flat loading surface 28 can also be cleared by an adapted movement kinematics between the upper 23 and lower loading tub 22.
  • FIG. 3d shows the subsequent pivoting movement of the lower loading trough 22 in order to admit the lower waste fraction B into the lower loading space 6 by turning clockwise.
  • the two loading troughs 22, 23 therefore cooperate in their geometrical arrangement to allow the upper refuse fraction A into the upper storage space 5.
  • the lower loading trough 22 clears the lower waste fraction B into the lower storage space 6 along the end wall 19, which is circular in cross section.
  • Both loading troughs 22, 23 can compress the waste introduced into the storage spaces 5, 6, respectively.
  • 3d shows the state of the storage spaces 5, 6 which is closed by the loading trays 22, 23.
  • FIGS. 3a to 3d can each be carried out with two multi-chamber waste containers arranged next to one another.
  • a flap arrangement 22, 23 is assigned to each refuse container 11. This corresponds to the representation according to FIG. 1, with a vehicle body separated in the vertical longitudinal center plane. Such an arrangement is provided twice next to each other and can be interconnected for larger containers.
  • FIGS. 4a to 4d shows the same multi-chamber refuse vehicle as described above, but which is used for emptying a so-called mono refuse container, ie. H. a waste container without a partition for receiving only a certain waste fraction.
  • the mono waste container 10 in FIGS. 4a, 4b is only intended for receiving the waste fraction A
  • the mono waste container 10 in FIGS. 4c, 4d is intended for receiving a mono fraction B.
  • the lower loading tub 22 is positioned such that it comes to rest on or below the end edge 31 of the inner end wall 19, which is circular in cross-section. This corresponds to the position 22 ′′ shown in dashed lines in FIG. 2.

  • the further fraction from the upper chamber b in the container 9 consequently reaches the upper chamber 5 ', while the fraction from the chamber d below it of the refuse container reaches the storage space 6' located below the chamber 5 '.
  • the partition 45 ' represents an extension of the partition 4' in the garbage truck.
  • both the upper b and the lower chamber d of the waste container 9 in the lower storage space 6 'of the garbage truck can be emptied.
  • the loading flap 22a can also be placed with its front edge 29 on the front edge 32 of the transverse partition 13 so that the fraction of the garbage container 9 arranged in the upper chamber b also reaches the upper storage space 5 'of the garbage truck.
  • the introduction of garbage from several or a certain chamber of the garbage container into a certain storage space of the garbage truck can be expedient if the garbage is contaminated.
  • the upper loading tub 23 articulated in the preceding figures in the vehicle roof area may also be designed as a lower loading tub 23 ', which is articulated in the area of the vehicle floor 2 to a joint 55 with a horizontal axis of rotation.
  • the loading tub 22 articulated in the area of the horizontal partition 4 in turn takes over the partitioning of the passage shaft or discharge chute 35, so that the fraction A can get from the corresponding chamber 14 into the upper storage space 5 of the refuse collection vehicle.
  • the representation according to FIG. 9a accordingly corresponds to the representation according to FIG. 3a.
  • the loading trough 22 according to FIG. 9a cannot be cleared of another loading trough. Rather, this is done in that the loading tub 22 itself leads the waste fraction A into the storage space 5 by a counterclockwise rotation (arrow 56), as shown in FIG. 9b.
  • the loading tray 23 'set down in FIGS. 9a, 9b then also clears the fraction B from the discharge chute 35 into the lower storage space 6 by a counterclockwise rotation (arrow 57).
  • both loading flaps 22, 23 'in serve to close the storage spaces 5, 6.
  • FIG. 10 shows in FIGS. 10a to 10e a schematic illustration of different types of refuse collection vehicles with a uniformly associated rear part 7 which is part of the refuse collection vehicle.
  • the representation in FIG. 10a corresponds to the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 7, i.e. the garbage truck 1 contains an upper storage space 5 for receiving fraction A, a lower storage space 6 for receiving fraction B and the two loading trays 22, 23 closing storage spaces 5 and 6.
  • the arrangement according to FIG also additionally have a vertical longitudinal partition for performance in four storage spaces AD.
  • the storage spaces 5, 6 and A - D on the garbage truck 1 can also be formed by two or more stacked containers 60, 61, each by a rear loading troughs 22, 22 'or 23 are closed. Each container then has a container floor 54, not shown in FIG. 10e, the lower container floor 54 being placed on the vehicle floor 2.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 10e can also not be designed as a container construction analogous to FIG. 10a.
  • Both the embodiment according to FIG. 10a and that according to FIG. 10b each have the rear part 7 shown in FIG. 10b, which can be flanged or attached to the rear connection surface 51 and is part of the vehicle body. 10b and 10e, in particular, the rear part 7 can then be removed or removed from the connecting surface 51. 12a-12d, one or more loading trays 22, 23 with intermediate frames 85, 85 'can be provided.
  • FIG. 10c A further embodiment variant is shown in FIG. 10c, in which the horizontal and possibly also the vertical partition 4, 4 'of the other exemplary embodiments are completely dispensed with, so that there is a storage space that is not divided.
  • this exemplary embodiment can also be designed in a container construction with a container 62 '.
  • the garbage truck only has a single storage space 59 which serves to hold the garbage of any composition.
  • the arrangement of the two loading troughs 22, 23 is nevertheless carried out in the same way as in the exemplary embodiments according to FIGS. 10a, 10b, i.e.
  • the garbage brought into the storage space 59 is in turn taken up by the loading troughs 22, 23 via the flanged filling or pouring device 8 as described above and transported into the storage space 59.
  • the two loading tubs 22, 23 then serve equally as the rear end of the container 62 to be removed from the refuse collection vehicle.
  • Such an arrangement of the invention is used in particular for handling mono refuse containers.
  • the refuse collection vehicle can be equipped with a rear part 7 that can be flexibly handled.
  • the rear part 7 is pivotably articulated on the vehicle floor 2 via a four-link chain 65.
  • the four-link chain 65 consists of a double rocker arm arrangement with a first rocker arm 66 and a second rocker arm 67, which are attached in a cranked design via two lower pivot points 63, 64 on the vehicle floor and the pivot points 63 ', 64' on the rear part 7.
  • the rear part 7 is in an approximately vertical position, i.e. the rear part 7 is flanged to the connection surface 51 in FIG. 10.
  • the end region 68 of the vehicle floor 2 is V-shaped, with a pointed one angle 1 ⁇ 75 °.
  • the oblique flank 70 of the rear part 7 runs, which forms an angle with the rear wall 71 directed upwards 2nd ⁇ 45 °.
  • the two rocker arms 66, 67 are now arranged such that the lower articulation points 63, 64 come to rest approximately on the lower oblique flank 72 of the V-shaped end region 68. From there, the lower cranked leg 73 runs approximately parallel to the oblique flank 73 and the upper leg 74 at an angle 3rd ⁇ 135 ° to this.
  • the lower leg 75 of the further rocking lever 64 is arranged in the arrangement according to FIG. 11a approximately parallel and adjacent to the upper leg 74 of the rocking lever 66, ie the cranking of the rocking lever 67 lies approximately around the articulation point 63 '.
  • the upper leg 76 of the rocker arm 67 is again at an angle 4th x 3rd ⁇ 135 ° cranked.
  • FIG. 11a represents the starting point for a pivoting movement of the rear part 7 in order to come to an approximately horizontal position as shown in FIG. 11c.
  • a force 77 acts on the articulation point 78 of the rear part 7 and pulls this point in the direction of the vehicle floor 2.
  • the four-link chain formed from the two rocker arms 66, 67, opens.
  • the two articulation points 63, 64 remain rigid on the fixed vehicle floor 2, while the upper pivot point 63 'in the direction of arrow 79, ie towards the garbage truck and the upper pivot point 64 'initially in the direction of arrow 80, i.e. moved backwards.
  • the rear part 7 Since the rear part 7 thus moves in the direction of the vehicle floor 2, the rear part 7 must have two lateral side cheeks 83 which then slide past the vehicle floor 2 laterally by means of the four-link chain.
  • the containers shown in FIGS. 10b, 10c are placed on supports, so that the vehicle including the vehicle floor two and the rear part 7 can pass under the containers.
  • the two four-link chains articulated to the side of the vehicle are accordingly articulated on the right and left of the swivel frame of a vehicle intermediate frame with the articulation points 63, 64, the pivoting-out movement of the rear part being initiated by the action of force at point 78.
  • the articulation point 78 sits, as shown in the initial position according to FIG. 11 a, somewhat obliquely above the articulation point 64 in the lower leg 75 of the rocking lever 67.
  • the rear movement of the rear part 7 from the position according to FIG. 11c takes place by reversing the force of the force 77 to the point 78.
  • the vehicle floor 2 can be designed as a vehicle intermediate frame.
  • the rear part 7 has one or more intermediate frames 85, 85 'or “interchangeable frames", on each of which the loading and clearing devices or loading trays 22, 23 are mounted.
  • the peculiarity lies in the fact that these intermediate frames 85, 85 'can be attached both to a rear part 7 which can be swung out to the rear and to the respective containers 60, 61 with associated storage spaces 5, 6.
  • the loading tub 22 fixed with its pivot axis 24 to the upper end of the intermediate frame 85, a centering pin 86 on the intermediate frame 85 engaging in an adapted centering guide 87 on the storage space 6 with a precise fit.
  • FIG. 12a shows a rear part 7 folded down and fastened to the storage spaces 5, 6 with an intermediate frame 85 therebetween. If, for example, the storage spaces 5, 6 are to be emptied by swiveling up the front part of the storage spaces, then, for example, as shown in FIG. 12b the upper storage space 5 can be closed by the loading tub 23, while the lower storage space 6 can be emptied by swiveling the rear part up, including the intermediate frame 85 flanged to the rear part 7. This is indicated by arrow 90.
  • the rear part 7 is folded up about a pivot axis 91 in order to enable one or both storage spaces 5, 6 to be emptied, provided that the intermediate frame 85 were flanged to the lower storage space 6 of the vehicle, this could either remain closed or through folding up the associated loading flap 22 can also be emptied.
  • the intermediate frame 85 therefore serves for the optional fastening of the loading tub 22 to the lower storage space 6 or to the rear part 7.
  • the upper storage space 5 can also be provided with a corresponding intermediate frame 85 ', which in turn can be attached either to the rear corner part 7 or to the storage space 5.
  • Corresponding centering means 86 to 89 are again provided. If the storage spaces 5, 6 are designed as containers 60, 62, they can be closed or, alternatively, by means of the intermediate frames 85, 85 'and the loading trays 22, 23 attached to them. be locked. However, the loading troughs 22, 23 can also be part of the rear part 7, and can be pivoted away from the vehicle via the pivot axis 91 as shown in FIG. 12d.
  • the rear part 7 basically represents part of the rear area of the vehicle, as is described in principle with respect to FIG. 11.
  • FIGS. 12a to 12d can also be provided with a mono storage space on the vehicle, the horizontal partition 4 being omitted, for example, in FIG. 12a. This is therefore only shown in broken lines in FIG. 12a.
  • the effect of the fastening possibility of the lower "change frame 85" with horizontal pivot axis 24 on the rear rear part 7 of the vehicle is particularly advantageous, since the entire rear opening 92 or rear surface 51 of a mono storage space would now be completely exposed and a pivot axis 24 would not open this opening blocked. This is particularly advantageous for large-scale groupage.
  • pivot axis 24 directly, i.e. can be attached to the storage compartment 6 or to the rear section 7 or to both without an intermediate frame.
  • centering devices such as mandrels 86, 88 and centering guides 87, 89 or e.g. to position the infeed device 22 on the container via vertically divided half-shells. This applies to both the lower loading tub 22 and the upper loading tub 22.
  • the loading tubs or tailgates 22, 23 can be locked in their position, in particular in the case of filled garbage trucks, so that the garbage cannot escape.
