  • Task to establish a facility of the type mentioned create that avoids the disadvantages mentioned and a use of the known plastic container for the Collection and temporary storage of dangerous Residual and waste materials or contaminated equipment in companies directly at workplaces allowed.
  • the object is achieved by the device according to claim 1.
  • the metal protective housing is an effective one Fire protection for the plastic container arranged in it and its content offers and because on the other hand that Protective housing due to its self-closing Lid on the inlet opening ensures that vapors or gases from the substances collected in the plastic container do not escape to any significant extent into the environment can.
  • the metal protective housing offers the advantage that it is comparatively simple and inexpensive is producible and that it is for operation, in which it is used, does not require large investments.
  • a major advantage is that after collecting and temporarily storing the Residual and waste materials or contaminated equipment do not put them in a special transport container have to be decanted, whatever with dangers and Risks to personnel and the environment.
  • the protective housing one closed bottom and at least one wall (11) with flap or door (4) or one wall designed as a flap or door for insertion and Has removal of the plastic container.
  • the protective housing is also down given a tight seal, so that the protective housing can be used regardless of the installation site can, for example also at installation sites with a floor covering made of combustible materials such as wood or plastic.
  • This version also allows the Establish a hassle free transport of Protective housing and plastic container inside.
  • an exchangeable centering adapter of the protective housing arranged to center the plastic container is.
  • this centering adapter ensures that the plastic container also from the bottom of the Protective housing maintains a sufficient distance to fire protection even when attacking from below Ensure flames.
  • the interchangeable Centering adapter for easy adjustment differently shaped and dimensioned plastic containers, so that the protective housing itself for the purpose of combination not changed with different plastic containers must be, but only the appropriate one Centering adapter inserted in the protective housing are needed.
  • the centering adapter can have the shape of a circumferential base ring, in which the bottom of the plastic container fits intervenes. This also ensures that the Plastic container centered inside the protective housing stands and one of all walls of the protective housing maintains even distance, what a good Fire safety is important.
  • the flap or door closes automatically and optionally lockable.
  • the device can also be used on public spaces Places, e.g. as a collection point for used batteries or old medication.
  • the input opening in the Top of the protective case is provided that the input opening with one converging downwards Collar is provided and that the lid in its closed position lies against the lower edge of the collar.
  • the order the entry opening in the top of the protective housing allows simple input of residual and waste materials or contaminated equipment from all sides of the protective housing.
  • the one around the entry opening provided around, converging downwards Collar ensures that the substances entered are reliable fall into the plastic container and not get next to these.
  • Collar in the event of a fire the advantage that the flame development inhibited inside the protective housing becomes.
  • the Lid on a horizontal one next to the input opening Axis is pivotally supported by a continuous rod-sleeve arrangement is formed.
  • a continuous rod-sleeve arrangement is formed.
  • the cover acting force is preferably provided that for this purpose the counterweight and / or the spring element are adjustable is / are.
  • the closing force as small as possible, but safe for closing sufficient value can be set; as soon as then a small amount of residues or waste or contaminated Equipment on the top of the cover is given up, the lid is by their weight pivoted into its open position. In this Position, the lid runs down, so that the abandoned Fabric automatically down over the lid slips and falls into the plastic container.
  • the counterweight or the spring element ensures an automatic closing so that the container always is only open for a very short time. That way you can only in very small and therefore tolerable quantities of gases or vapors from inside the container into the environment reach.
  • At least one baffle or wall above that for the plastic container provided space inside the protective housing be arranged.
  • the protective container is expediently made of coated, preferably painted or powder coated or galvanized Sheet steel or stainless steel sheet manufactured. These materials can also be relative easy to process and by cutting and folding bring it into the required form. The connection the individual parts can be advantageous by welding take place, what a high durability and good tightness of the protective container.
  • a round entry opening 2 provided, which converge towards the bottom, annular collar 21 is limited.
  • a cover 3 On the lower edge of the collar 21 is a cover 3, the thus occupies its closed position here.
  • the front wall 11 is, starting from the bottom, over the most of its height is designed as a pivotable door 4, the latter by means of two hinges 40 the right side wall 13 in Figure 1 articulated is.
  • the hinges 40 are designed as spring hinges, which ensure that door 4 closes automatically.
  • the lid shown in Figure 1 in its closed position 3 is also mounted so that it automatically closes when there is no force acting in the opening direction is exercised on him. This ensures that the protective housing 1, as long as no external forces on the Cover 3 and / or door 4 act completely closed is.
  • Door 4 a known container made of plastic which, e.g. for the transport of Dangerous goods are approved according to the GGVS.
  • the Protective housing 1 which is made of metal, is the one in it housed plastic container in case of fire for one long enough to prevent destruction and inflammation protected; at the same time, the escape of harmful Gases or vapors from inside the protective housing 1 prevented, even if the plastic container arranged in it is not closed with a lid.
  • the plastic container must have its own lid then only be locked when it is for removal of the substances gathered inside it are provided.
  • FIG. 2 of the drawing which shows the protective container 1 shows in frontal view, the arrangement of the plastic container 5 clearly inside the housing 1, wherein the plastic container 5, since it is covered by the door 4 is shown in dashed lines.
  • a replaceable centering adapter 50 is the Plastic container 5 lifted from the bottom 15 of the housing 1; at the same time has the plastic container 5 all around a sufficient distance from the four walls 11 to 14 of the housing 1, whereby the desired protection in Fire is reached.
  • the centering adapter 50 expedient made of metal, such as sheet steel. In the simplest case, it has the shape of a circumferential base ring. replaceable it is for the purpose of adapting to differently shaped Plastic container 5.
