Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a procedure for the collection of solid urban waste, and to a container for the implementation of that procedure.
  • the present invention relates to a procedure for the collection of solid waste, of the type which involves the utilization of a plurality of movable containers, set down in respective locations in the streets and which can be picked up, emptied, cleaned, disinfected and/or deodorized, following which they are set down again in operating position by automobile vehicles provided with means for on-loading and off-loading the containers, while the container to which the present invention relates is of the type which has an opening for putting in the waste, which opening can be closed in sealed fashion; at least two compartments, the first of which forms a loading chamber and is provided with the said opening, while the second is a waste storage compartment, the two compartments being adjacent to each other and separated by a dividing wall; at least one filling-level detector; and means of compacting and/or accumulating the waste.
  • the procedure and the container of the present invention are particularly applicable for the collection of solid urban and industrial waste, either all together or selectively, for the subsequent controlled tipping or sorting thereof.
  • the lorry takes the waste to a transfer or sorting plant, or directly to a controlled tip.
  • these containers are also suitable for the selective collection of waste whose end-purpose is recycling or recovery of same, in which case they are transported normally to a waste sorting centre for classification into groups, such as the known groups of paper and cardboard, metal, plastics, glass, etc., or their final tipping and disposal.
  • containers which are provided with at least two compartments, the first of which forms a loading chamber and is provided with a loading opening which can be closed in leaktight manner and the second is a waste storage compartment.
  • the two compartments are adjacent to each other, normally in the horizontal direction, and are separated by a dividing wall.
  • the purpose of the invention is to solve the disadvantages mentioned, and to provide other additional advantages.
  • the procedure of the invention is characterized in that it comprises the steps of: opening the container by motorized drive, preferably by operation of a remote control; emptying out the waste which is inside the container, while the latter is kept open; automatically closing the container once a preset period of time has elapsed after the previous step; compacting and/or accumulating the waste put in; and then sprinkling the inside of the container with a disinfectant and/or deodorizing product, in such a way that, when the waste put into the container exceeds at least a preset filling level, corresponding to a fraction of or its total capacity, or if a living being has entered or a breakdown of container operation has occurred, a signal is sent from the container which includes codes which identify the container and the filling situation of same, the presence of a living being inside it and/or a breakdown condition, so that a container-collector vehicle can travel to the site of the container in order to pick it up and transport it to a repair or emptying and waste treatment station.
  • the container of the invention is characterized essentially in that the aforesaid compacting means are made up of a worm with an essentially horizontal shaft, inserted into a tube and driven by a motor, which connects the loading chamber with the storage chamber, said tube having an essentially horizontal section, an essentially vertical section and an angled ascending section fitted between the previous two sections, which tube works in combination with the aforesaid worm to compact the waste.
  • the container is provided with a motor, preferably governed by remote control, designed to open and close the load opening hatch.
  • the container is provided with a self-powered emitter which can receive data from at least one transducer and is designed subsequently to send corresponding signals for container identification, for the filling level of the container, for the presence of a living being inside the container and/or for breakdown, to an operational control centre.
  • the first compartment is provided with an inclined-plane gate, fitted under the loading opening, which divides said first compartment into an upper part and a lower part and is designed to regulate the fall of the solid waste into said lower part.
  • the container of the invention is also characterized in that it is provided with a detector of the presence of a living being inside the container, designed to emit a signal which deactivates the waste-compacting means and prevents opening of the inclined-plane gate in the event of actual detection of such presence, said detector being preferably formed by a vibration sensor and/or a heat sensor.
  • the container is provided with a fault detector.
  • the container is provided with means for protecting the interior of the loading chamber from any entry of rainwater while the loading opening is kept open.
  • the container is provided with leak-tightness means for the liquids given off by the waste, preferably made up of an inverted-V profile attached to the base of the storage compartment and running transversally and adjacent to the back end of said base.
  • the container 1 of the invention suitable for implementing the procedure of the present invention, comprises three interior compartments 3, 4 and 26.
  • the first compartment 3, which is the central compartment, is a loading chamber for the solid waste and is provided with a loading opening 2 for putting in the waste.
  • the loading opening 2 can be closed in leaktight fashion by a hatch and is of dimensions such as to permit comfortable insertion with free play into the container 1 of the waste which users will normally put into the container, for example a bag 34 of domestic or industrial refuse.
  • the second compartment 4 is a waste storage compartment, adjacent to the loading chamber 3 and separated from it by a dividing wall 5, except for an opening 29 which connects the storage compartment 4 with the chamber 3.
  • An essentially horizontal worm 8 which traverses said opening 29 in the dividing wall 5 and connects the chamber 3 with the storage compartment 4.
  • the worm 8 is supported at one of its ends 27 by the dividing wall between the chamber 3 and the third compartment 26, for example on bearings, while at its other end 28 it projects into the interior of the storage compartment 4.
  • the worm is of variable screw pitch, decreasing in the direction going from the chamber 3 to the storage compartment 4, as can be seen in Figures 2 and 3.
  • the worm 8 runs through the interior of an essentially horizontal section 14 of a tube 13 fixed to the dividing wall 5 at its part adjacent to the storage compartment 4.
  • Said tube 13 also includes an angled section 23 and an essentially vertical section 15 which, in the example shown, takes an ascending route.
  • the projection end 28 of the worm 8 is to the interior of the angled section 23, so that the waste which is being compacted as it is transported from the loading chamber 3 to the storage compartment 4 hits against the interior face of said angled section 23 as it emerges from the worm 8.
  • the waste, pushed by the worm 8 is forced to change direction and to move along said essentially vertical section 15, to be fed, by then compacted, into the storage compartment 4.
  • the worm 8 is driven by a motor 9 housed in the third compartment 26, which is a sealed compartment which houses the electrical actuation and container 1 control elements.
  • the loading chamber 3 is provided with an inclined-plane gate 16, which descends towards the worm 8, to form a hopper-type configuration to facilitate the fall of the solid residue into the loading chamber 3, as can be observed particularly in Figure 4.
  • Said gate 16 divides the loading chamber 3 into an upper part 31 and a lower part 32.
  • the loading opening 2 doors of the chamber 3 and the gate 16 are driven by respective actuating means, preferably formed by two motors 6 and 7.
  • Figure 1 shows that the container 1 has means of protection made up of a hood 18, fitted above the loading opening 2, which protects the loading chamber 3 from any entry of rainwater into it while loading opening 2 is open.
  • similar protective means can be fitted, such as a roof section which, like the hood 18, can be movable.
  • the container 1 On the back face 21 opposite to the loading chamber 3, the container 1 has a hermetic hatch 12 designed for tipping out the container 1 contents by overturning at the waste collection centre in the final tipping of the waste.
  • An inverted-V profile 24 of low height is attached, preferably by welding, to the base 25 of the storage compartment 4, transversally to the container 1 and near the side 21 of the aforesaid hermetic gate 12. Said profile 24 permits the liquids given off by the waste to be pooled in the bottom of the storage compartment 4, sealing them off and preventing accidental tipping of same during the collection phase of the operation or during transportation of the container 1.
  • the solid waste collection procedure which uses the containers 1 of the invention is implemented according to an operating cycle which includes the following sequential steps:
  • Steps a) to g), respectively, are implemented as long as no total filling or preset partial filling of the container 1 is detected, which detection is implemented by means of filling detection 22 means with which the container 1 is equipped.
  • said means of filling detection 22 are made up of at least one level sensor and/or load sensors which, when activated, give rise to interruption of the above-described operating cycle.
  • Said means of filling detection 22 are designed so that they can be activated selectively in function of a certain degree of filling, corresponding to a fraction of or the entirety of the storage compartment of the container 1.
  • a signal is sent from the container 1 to an operational control centre 20.
  • Said signal includes codes on container 1 identification and filling condition, so that a motorized vehicle 11 equipped with a receiver 19 and a crane 17 can go to the site of said full container 1 in order to put an empty one in its place and transport the full container to the waste collection and/or treatment centre or to the controlled tip.
  • the operational control centre 20 is sent another signal which includes a code to indicate the problem and a code identifying the container 1.
  • the emitter 10 for said signals is self-powered and designed to receive data from at least one transducer and then send said signals, whether radio, electrical or of other type, to the operational control centre 20.
  • the procedure can be so designed that, in addition to transmitting the aforesaid presence identification signal to the operational control centre 20, the loading opening door 2 opens and closes, respectively, a preset number of times in order to give the living being inside the chance to get out of the container 1, in which case an operating cycle is re-initiated, while if no living being emerges the operation of the device is blocked.
