  • the refuse-collection device comprises a collection part 1 and a throw-in part 2 which is arranged above the collection part 1.
  • the collection part 1 is substantially buried in the ground, for example in a pavement 4.
  • the collection part 1 is preferably placed in a concrete housing (not shown) and is covered by a cover plate 5 made of, for example, concrete.
  • the collection part 1 comprises one or more refuse- collection compartments, which are formed in particular by a refuse silo 7.
  • Each silo 7 is covered at the top by a fixed lid with a central filling opening 8, which is delimited by a vertical flange 9.
  • the top sides of the silos 7 fit with a slight degree of play in openings 12 in the plate 5.
  • the top of the plate 5 and the top of the lid of each silo 7 lie substantially in the same horizontal plane.
  • the bottom part of the flange 9 is suitable, for example by means of a hoisting opening 10, to be engaged" on by means of an associated auxiliary component at the end of a crane (not shown) .
  • the crane is in particular a crane of a lorry (not shown) with a loading body with an open top side. In the situation shown in Fig. 2, the crane is able to lift each silo 7 out of the housing in which they are situated. The crane can then place the hoisted silo 7 onto the loading body of the lorry.
  • each silo 7, as is known per se to have a base which can be opened by auxiliary means on the lorry. Refuse present in the silo 7 can then be tipped into the loading body. The emptied silo 7 can then be put back in the opening 11 of the housing with the plate 5.
  • the throw-in part 2 comprises a shaft 20 for each refuse compartment, in particular for each silo 7.
  • the shaft 20 has a throw-in opening 21, which is closed off by means of a partially hollow, rotatable ball 22 which is explained below.
  • the diameter of the shaft 20 increases slightly towards the bottom.
  • the shaft 20 is of double- walled design by means of a cylindrical inner tube 23 and a concentric outer tube 24, which has a diameter which increases towards the bottom and which extends further downwards than the inner tube 23.
  • the cavity between the tubes 23, 24 is sealed on the underside by means of a flat ring 25.
  • the shape and dimensions of the chamber 26 are such that the flange 9 fits into the chamber 26 and the entire circumference of the ring 25 is supported on the top side of the flange 9. As a result, the flange 9 and the ring 25 form a stench seal .
  • a shaft 20 is placed on each silo 7.
  • Each shaft 20 is attached to a central vertical pillar 32 by means of a structure 30, 31.
  • the pillar 32 has a control panel 33 which is explained further on in the text.
  • the pillar 32 ' is situated in a lower position, in which the pillar 32 can rest on the plate 5.
  • the pillar 32 is hollow and contains lifting means, of which a vertical tube 35 is shown in Fig. 2, which tube is arranged immovably with respect to the plate 5.
  • the tube 35 is provided, for example, with a screw thread or with toothing on which an electric drive arranged in the pillar
  • the device according to the invention as described thus far functions as follows:
  • a driver of a lorry which has been assigned this task will provide an authorization identifier, via the control panel 33, to electrical control means (not shown) which are connected to the control panel 33.
  • the authorization identifier is situated, for example, in electronic or magnetic memory means of a card of the credit card format.
  • the electrical control means will, optionally after the driver has pressed a start button on the control panel 33, drive the electric drive means inside the pillar 32 in order to lift the throw-in part 2 to a height at which the bottom edge of each shaft 20 is situated above the flange 9 of the associated silo 7.
  • each silo 7 includes a structure with a horizontal baseplate on which the silo 7 rests and which is moved upwards by means of counterweights when the silo 7 is lifted out .
  • the counterweights are preferably heavier than the weight of the movable support base plus the weight of two adults.
  • the overall lifting arm of the crane can be shorter than if a silo has a shaft with throw- in opening attached fixedly thereto.
  • a crane with a shorter lifting arm is easier to manoeuvre, fits more easily onto various types of lorries and is less expensive to purchase.
  • the separate realization of the collection part 1 and of the throw-in part 2 has the further advantage that the permanent positioning of the throw-in part 2 allows cables and/or tubes for supplying power to the drive means inside the pillar 32, the control panel 33 and possibly for communication purposes to be placed in position permanently. These cables and/or tubes for power supply or communication can moreover be guided safely from the underground housing, via the stationary tube 35, into the pillar 32.
  • the further function comprises lock (sluice) means which are arranged in the throw-in opening 21 of each shaft 20 and can comprise drive means as a result of the above- mentioned advantages.
  • the lock means comprise in particular a ball 22 which is shown separately in Fig. 5.
  • the ball 22 has two parallel flat side parts 40, which each have a central journal 41 with a common axis of rotation 42.
  • the journals 41 are coupled to drive means (not shown), which are independent for each ball 22.
  • the ball has a chamber 44 with an access opening 45.
  • the chamber 44 is essentially in the form of a bucket, and is intended for refuse to be deposited therein.
  • the diameter of the ball is, for example, 60 cm and the capacity of the chamber 44 is, for example, 60 litres, with the result that the chamber 44 is suitable for a filled standard refuse sack to be deposited therein.
  • the ball 22 is rotated about the horizontal axis 42 in such a manner that a closed ball part of the ball 22 seals off the throw-in opening 21 of the shaft 20.
  • Figs. 1, 2, 4 and 6 show this position.
  • suitable materials for example plastic, and by using optional extra sealing means, the ball 22 can in this position seal off the throw-in opening 21 in a largely stench-tight manner.
  • the ball 22 of the associated shaft 20 is rotated to such an extent, preferably over the shortest possible route (in Fig. 6 in the clockwise direction) , that the opening 45 of the chamber 44 coincides with the throw-in opening 21 of the shaft 20.
  • the ball 22 is rotated back into the position shown in Fig. 6. In this position, weighing means (not shown) , which are coupled to suspension means for the journals 41 of the ball 22, can weigh a substantially constant load plus the contents of the chamber 44.
  • the ball 22 can then be rotated further into the position shown in Fig. 8, in which the opening 45 of the chamber 44 of the ball 22 faces downwards, so that refuse present in the chamber 44 is tipped down, via the shaft 20, into the silo 7 .
  • electrical means may be provided for electrically driving a motor (not shown) which is coupled to the journals 41.
  • the electrical means may be combined with the electrical means for operating the drive means for lifting the pillar 32.
  • the electrical means may be suitable for allowing the ball 22 to be rotated only under certain circumstances.
  • a single switch 48, and preferably two key switches 49, is/are arranged on the top side of the shaft 20, close to the throw-in opening 21.
  • the control panel 33 preferably has means with which a person wishing to deposit refuse can provide an authorization identifier to the electrical means.
  • the authorization identifier may be situated in electronic or magnetic memory means of a card, for example in the format of a credit card.
  • the card may be a simple authorization card, a credit card, an electronic money-holder or a subscriber card.
  • the switches 48, 49 or at least signals provided by these switches are enabled.
  • the drive means When the user activates the switch 48, the drive means will rotate the ball 22 into the throw- in position shown in Fig. 7.
  • the switch 48 When the user then, optionally after having thrown in refuse, activates at least one of the switches 49, the ball 22 will be rotated, by the drive means, into the weighing position shown in Fig. 6. After the deposited refuse has been weighed, the drive means will rotate the ball 22 into the tipping position shown in Fig. 8. Then, the drive means will rotate the ball 22 into the at-rest position which is also shown in Fig. 6.
  • the electrical means can be suitable for deducting a sum from the card for tipping in the refuse .
  • the sum to be deducted may be made dependent on the measured weight of the refuse tipped in. In order to ensure that this takes place correctly, the electrical means will draw the inserted card right in, so that it is out of reach of the person depositing the refuse. After deducting the sum owed, the card is returned.
  • the person depositing the refuse has to activate both switches 49 simultaneously, so that neither hand is free, thus preventing the hands from accidentally being trapped when the ball 22 is rotated out of the throw- in position shown in Fig. 7 into the weighing or at-rest position shown in Fig. 6.
  • the detection means may comprise ultrasonic detection means (not shown) which are connected to the electrical means and are arranged on the inside of each shaft 20.
  • the ultrasonic detection means transmit an ultrasonic signal, via the filling opening 8, into the silo 7 beneath them, and detect an ultrasonic signal which is reflected by the refuse in the silo.
  • the time difference between transmitting the ultrasonic signal and receiving the reflected ultrasonic signal, and possibly the attenuation of the reflected signal, can be processed in order to determine the filling level of the silo 7.
  • the electrical means comprise communication means for remotely providing a manager with information about the filling level of the silos 7 and optionally with other information about the condition of the device.
  • the manager can send a command, via the communication means, so as to immobilize in particular the drive means which are coupled to the balls 22.
