Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refuse collection vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Waste collection vehicles with containers designed as swap bodies with detachable couplings for receiving the waste are already known from EP 0 163 859 B1.
  • These vehicles have a pouring unit connected to the vehicle, which consists of a pouring opening arranged in the front area of the vehicle, which is located partly above the driver's cab of the refuse collection vehicle and partly between the latter and the container in the area behind and above the driver's cab, and a receiving space consist.
  • a lifting and tilting device is also provided for receiving and emptying waste containers into the pouring opening.
  • the rubbish poured into the pouring opening is pushed into the container with a conveyor device for transporting the rubbish emptied into the pouring opening into the container through its filling opening provided with a closure device.
  • the conveyor which also acts as a press device, consists of a press ram, which is adapted in cross-sectional shape to the receiving space.
  • the receiving space has a horizontal floor that runs parallel to the chassis, via which the conveyor and press rams are used a toggle-piston-cylinder system is slidable. If the press ram has been moved into a retracted position via the toggle-piston-cylinder system, the waste can be poured into the receiving space. By pushing the conveyor and press ram, the waste is then conveyed into the receiving opening of the container and pressed at the same time.
  • This arrangement of the conveyor and press ram is maintenance-intensive and prone to failure. For example, the ram may become jammed within the receiving space. Remedial action must then be taken by the garbage workers.
  • the pouring opening of the container fixed on the refuse collection vehicle is arranged directly above the floor. If organic waste is now collected and transported with a corresponding refuse collection vehicle, liquid will leak out of the container due to the high water content of the compostable waste. Therefore, the previously known refuse collection vehicle is not very suitable for refuse to be collected that has high liquid contents.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to further develop a generic refuse collection vehicle in such a way that it works insensitive to impact.
  • the solution is solved on the basis of a generic refuse collection vehicle by the characterizing features of claim 1.
  • the conveying device is formed from a slide that is rotatable and translationally displaceable via a transmission linkage, and the bottom of the receiving space initially falls obliquely downward from the pouring opening in the direction of the container and finally merges into an essentially horizontal plane.
  • the transmission linkage which enables a rotatable and translatory displacement of the slide, ensures that the slide can be displaced along the inclined and horizontal plane into the filling opening of the container.
  • the slide is therefore only a supporting element here, since the waste does not have to be pushed along a horizontal plane, as was still the case in the prior art.
  • the transmission linkage comprises two parallel pivot arms, between which the slider is pivotally hinged at one end.
  • On their parallel swivel arms rotatably mounted holding arms engage with one end, which in turn rotates with the other end on the vehicle, i.e. are stored in the area of the pouring unit.
  • At least one angle lever which is also fixedly but rotatably mounted on the vehicle, is rotatably connected to the swivel arms at one free end and to an adjusting device at the other free end.
  • This adjustment device can advantageously consist of a piston-cylinder unit, which is also pivotably articulated in the pouring unit.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment consists in that the floor of the receiving space is advanced so far is that it extends into the opening of the container coupled to the refuse collection vehicle. This effectively prevents the waste conveyed from the receiving space into the container from falling between the dumping unit and the container and thereby contaminating the vehicle.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the opening of the container can be closed by means of a cover which is pivotably connected to the container below the opening, which in its open position protrudes vertically from the container and which in this position is in a space provided in the refuse collection vehicle below the Recording space is recordable.
  • This arrangement of the pivotable lid has the advantage that when the container is set down, any garbage that falls out of the filling opening falls onto the lid and is conveyed back into the filling opening when the lid is closed.
  • the container has a raised wall below the filling opening, which effectively prevents the water that has entered the container, for example by means of compostable waste, from escaping.
  • the garbage collection vehicle system shown as a whole in FIG. 1 consists of a truck with a short center distance in order to give the vehicle good maneuverability when collecting garbage.
  • the driver's cab 10 is fastened in front of the front axle 12 to the base frame 14 of the chassis, so that it projects with its lower edge into the area of the plane of the wheel axle or even lower and gives the driver a good view of waste containers standing next to the road.
  • a dump unit 16 is connected to the vehicle frame 14 on the chassis in such a way that it is arranged between the cab 10 and a container 18 and extends over the cab 10.
  • the lifting and tilting device 20 corresponds to the type already described in EP 0 163 859 B1 and makes it possible to pick up garbage bins (not shown here) via one or more gripping claws 22 and overhead to the pouring opening 24 of the pouring unit 16 in a known manner to pivot.
  • the pouring unit 16 essentially consists of a receiving space 26, in which the waste is emptied from the tilted waste container via a pouring opening 24.
  • the bottom 28 of the receiving space 26 is formed such that it initially falls obliquely downward and then merges into a substantially horizontal plane.
  • the receiving space is dimensioned with its bottom in such a way that the bottom protrudes into a filling opening 30 in the container 18.
  • Lateral walls 32 in the receiving space are also inclined so far pulled out that, as shown in Fig. 1, partially protrude into the opening 30 of the container 18. This ensures that no garbage pushed into the container falls between the container 18 and the garbage unit 16.
  • a conveying device 34 is arranged in the chute unit 16 within the receiving space 26.
  • the conveyor consists of a rotatable and translationally displaceable slide 38 via a transmission linkage 36.
  • the rotatable and translational displaceability of the slide 38 means that it can be moved essentially along the bottom 28 and thereby the rubbish poured into the receiving space 26 towards the container 18 can promote.
  • the transmission linkage 36 consists essentially of two parallel pivot arms 40, at one end of which the slider 38 is pivotally articulated.
  • On the parallel swivel arms 40 are rotatably mounted holding arms 42 which are fixedly but rotatably mounted on the vehicle with their free other end in the region of the receiving space walls.
  • a free end engages at least one angle lever 44, which is also fixedly but rotatably mounted on the vehicle about an axis 46 and can be pivoted with its other free end via a piston-cylinder arrangement 48.
  • a piston-cylinder unit 50 is also rotatably articulated, the other free end of which is also rotatably articulated on the slide 38.
  • the kinematics of the conveyor device 34 is shown by way of example with reference to FIGS. 2a to 2d based on characteristic positions of the slide. 2a, the piston-cylinder unit 48 and the piston-cylinder unit 50 are each retracted.
  • the slide 38 is folded in and the slide 38 is on the way back from its extended position and projecting into the container 18, as shown in FIG. 1, back to its starting position, in which it begins to push the waste in along the bottom 28.
  • Fig. 2b the piston-cylinder unit is still retracted while the piston-cylinder unit 48 is being extended, so that the swivel arms 40 are moved further back together with the slide 38.
  • FIG. 3 A part of the container 18 is shown separately in FIG. 3.
  • the filling opening 30 of the container extends between two wall sections 52 and 54.
  • the wall section 54 is pulled up from the bottom 56 of the container, so that any liquid that may have collected in the container cannot easily run out of it .
  • a cover 62 is pivotally articulated via a pivot lever mechanism 58 which can pivot about an axis 60 and which in its open position projects vertically from the container 18 and covers the opening 30 in its closed position.
  • the lid 62 swings open downward, so that garbage that falls out of the opening 30 when the container 18 is removed from the vehicle falls directly onto the lid 62, so that the garbage deposited thereon by folding up the lid by means of the Linkage 58 is conveyed back into the container.
  • the cover 62 is provided with obliquely raised edge regions 64. In its unfolded position, the cover 62 is received in an intermediate space 66 below the receiving space 26 in the refuse collection vehicle, as is also shown in FIG. 1.
