Abstract

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Leerflaschen-Rücknahmegerät mit einer Eingabekammer (14) für Leerflaschen (16) und einem Fahrgestell (20) als Wechselmagazin (22). Um eine einfache Handhabung beim Beschicken und Entleeren des Wechselmagazins (22) zu gewährleisten, ist das Leerflaschenmagazin (22) über eine quer zur Eingabeöffnung (11) ausgerichtete verschließbare Durchtrittsöffnung (38) von der stationären Eingabekammer (14) aus zugänglich. Weiter ist eine Fördereinrichtung vorgesehen, die einen quer zur Eingaberichtung durch die Eingabekammer (14) hindurch in Richtung Durchtrittsöffnung (38) hin- und herverschiebbaren Querschieber (68) aufweist. Die Flaschenerkennung erfolgt über einen innerhalb des Gehäuses (10) in Eingaberichtung hin- und herverschiebbaren, den Verschiebeweg des Querschiebers (68) im Bereich der Eingabekammer kreuzenden Sensorschieber (44), der mit Sensoren (48) zur berührungslosen Abtastung der Flaschenkontur bestückt ist.
