Description

I. Field of application

The invention relates to containers, in particular waste containers, such as those for Collection of household and industrial waste can be used.

II. Technical background

Such containers have a lid that the container in its Locked position, especially completely closed, and depending on Design after reaching a certain point of the closing movement, the Dead center, due to gravity or a spring preload itself automatically moves to the fully closed closed position. The one there applied closing force depends either on the spring preload, or also on the weight of the lid, and can be the case with large containers typically a swing lid that can be swiveled around a horizontal axis, for example made of metal, be so large that one during the Closing movement in the gap between the closing lid and the Body of the object or person arriving becomes.

Children who are out of curiosity are particularly at risk here Put the container in and be strangled by the closing lid could.

To avoid this, it is known, for example, to close the lid in this way construct that he looks at the body in supervision in the closed Completely covering condition, however, a sufficiently large one at the front Distance between the upper edge of the body and the lid remains, so that, for. B. a Child's head still in the closed state of the lid can pull out.

This has the disadvantage that the container is not completely closed, and in particular, unpleasant smells can escape and unauthorized persons continue to do so Can throw waste in the container.

Another problem with such known child locks is that despite the child lock, the other functions, such as the option automatic gripping, opening the swing lid and emptying the Containers may be affected by a collection vehicle.

Furthermore, it is known in such containers with a swing lid Swing lid in an intermediate position between the fully open and to be able to fix completely closed position by means of friction or non-positive engagement. To close the lid completely, the Lid moved by hand with such great force towards the closed position be that this frictional engagement or this locking between the lid and Corpus is overcome. A separate actuator for deactivation the latching or the frictional connection is not available. Show this solution for example FR-A-2 602 216, DE 82 16 788 U, DE 30 13 308 A and GB 20 44 836 A.

A separate actuator for deactivating the lock shows as closest prior art US 4,460,105 and beyond US 5,511,807. The actuator is on the body in both cases arranged, and both concern containers with a hinged lid and not with a swing lid.

III. Presentation of the invention a) Technical task

It is therefore the task according to the present invention to use a container to create a fully closing lid that, despite maintaining the Closing force a safety device against pinching in particular of a child between the body and the closing lid and yet preferably automatically emptied from a collecting vehicle can be.

b) solving the problem

This object is solved by the features of claims 1 and 2. advantageous Embodiments result from the subclaims.

Through a deactivatable positive locking or non-positive brake between the lid and the body of the container in such a position, in the still no jamming between the lid and the body is possible Closing movement of the lid stopped, unless the locking or Brake is deactivated.

The following explanations for locking also apply to one Brake.

The actuating element for deactivating the latching is either like this arranged and / or trained so that it can not be operated by a child can.

One possibility is that two such actuators at the same time must be operated, and these at such a large distance, for example are arranged at the front edge of the lid, from each other, that this is the Reach of a child. For smaller containers, about one commercial household waste bin with hinged lid, the arrangement in the rear area of either the two side walls or the rear area of the lid.

Another possibility is to use only one actuating element to provide, however, from the effort so that it from cannot be operated by a child.

Furthermore, the possibility is also with only a single actuating element given to choose the position so that it does not reach a child can be, for example on the lid, but sufficiently far from the Front edge set back from, so this is the reach of a child exceeds.

Another possibility is to make the actuator in the form of a to form two parts of existing handle, the halves of which move against each other must be, for which however there is only so much space available that this with can only happen to one hand. If doing so either the effort and / or the starting distance of the two handle halves is selected so that this with child's hand is not manageable, there is also child safety, so that a child who sticks his head into the container out of curiosity does not simultaneously deactivate the locking device by means of the actuating element can and therefore not get jammed when the lid is closed completely can be.

The bigger and heavier a container and especially its lid, the more such a safety device is more urgent. Accordingly, in First and foremost, the well-known, approx. 1,100 I rolling containers with one by one horizontal axis in the lower area of the body opening towards the rear Swing cover must be equipped with such a child lock.

Such a container is already due to the size and thus the weight or the pretensioning force of the swing lid generated by a spring with two Handles on the front edge or on the top of the swing lid fitted.

A preferred solution, in particular the retrofitting of such swing lid containers enables, is to be activated and deactivated Arrange locking projection on the swing cover, and the necessary for this Arrange the actuator on the existing handle and Especially designed to functionally combined with the handle as a handle in the handle.

The locking receptacle with which the activatable and deactivatable locking projection interacts, is then on the body of the container, especially in the area of Upper edge of its side walls, arranged.

Another possibility is to use a foot-operated actuator Arrange levers in the bottom area of the container, taking the body weight an adult is necessary to withdraw the locking projection and thus deactivate and release the latching. If the foot pedal is trained small enough to ensure that there are not several children Being able to stand on it at the same time is also childproof given.

Another possibility is on the container or preferably on Swing cover, especially on its front edge, two to each other to attach spaced buttons or pull buttons, with the help of the child lock can be deactivated by the locking projection from the area of Brought out rest, usually swung out, is. Both Push buttons or pull buttons must be the same as for the options described above can also be operated simultaneously so that the lid is completely closed can be.

A particularly simple option is to use such a handle in the vertical front edge of the swing lid (2) in a corresponding hole to arrange, the front edge as well as one behind it parallel web wall penetrates.

By pressing the button, a swivel lever is located under the cover pivots and deactivates the child lock.

In all of the above cases, it may still make sense that the Child lock is also automatically deactivated, for the case of the entire container tipping forward, as is the case with The container is emptied. This may be necessary because certain Devices for automatic gripping on the collection vehicles, Lifting and emptying the container are used, for this the lid Start of the process in a defined position, namely the complete one closed position, need. If a container is now to be emptied, who is not completely closed due to the child lock should complete closing of the lid at the start of the emptying process, namely when lifting and tipping up the container, take place automatically.

In this case, it is preferably provided that the locking comb into which Can lock the projection of the child lock, from the effective range of the Swing out the locking projection. In a normal, upright position the container is the locking comb z. B. from a spring in the activated Held in position, and additionally positively by a locking part held. The locking part itself can in turn be shifted in its position, because of the inclination of the container. When tilting the Containers releases the locking part of the locking comb, and that with always Swing cover pressing downward against the locking comb with greater force overcomes the force of the spring of the Rest comb.

Fig. 1a shows an approximately 1,100 I roll container 1 with a body 6, the is open at the top and closed by a swing lid 2 can.

The swing lid 2 is by means of struts 15 on the outside of the Side walls of the body 6 extend downwards, pivotable about one Pivot axis 7 arranged near the bottom of the body 6, and can of the body 6 completely shown in Fig. 1a Closed position can be pivoted backwards into an opening position, as is the case for example with the solution according to the invention with reference to FIG is shown.

To move the cover are at a distance from each other on its front edge two handles 9 are arranged, which are at a distance of about 1 m from each other are located.

The cover 2 is biased into the closed position by means of a spring 16 is arranged between the strut 15 and the body 6, either as shown attacking a remote from the pivot axis 7 of the strut 15 Point or as a torsion spring around the pivot axis 7.

The entire container 1 is mobile with the help of rollers 17 which on or under the Bottom of the body 6 are attached.

1b shows a container according to FIG. 1a, but in the open position, So with the lid 2 partially swung open, and additionally with one Locking device between cover 2 and body 6, of which in Fig. 1b Body 6 arranged catch receptacles 4 can be seen: The locking device is better shown in the sectional view according to Figures 2, as in described below.

The locking receptacles 4 are in the form of depressions in a locking comb 18 formed, which - as shown in Fig. 1b - on the arcuate upper Edges of the side walls 6a, 6b of the body 6 is arranged or laterally on the inside or outside of these side walls can be arranged, wherein the locking comb 18 does not protrude above the upper edges of the side walls 6a, 6b got to.

The locking receptacles 4 in the locking comb 18 are the closing movement of the Swing cover 2 is placed obliquely opposite, so that one on the swing cover 2 arranged locking projection automatically when closing in one of the Rastaufnahmen 4 retracts, unless he has previously deactivated the contact with the locking receptacles 4 and the locking comb 18 preventing position is withdrawn.

Figures 2 and 3 show a possibility of such in the activated position Prestressed, deactivatable locking projection 3, which corresponds to the Locking comb 4 such a device on both sides, ie close to the two Side walls 6a, 6b, is present.

As the figures 2 show, the handle 9 of the swing lid 2 consists of one front opening between the actual cover 2 and a so connected, in the area of the handle below it arranged spaced handle bar 9 ', which are taken by the user for pulling the swing lid 2 got to.

A pull rod 5, which is also in the area of the Handle bar 9 'parallel and at a distance from it in the activated position from Seen from behind the handle bar 9 'at such a distance is arranged that the pull rod 5 from one in the opening of the handle 9th grasped hand and by forming a fist on the handle 9 ' can be used.

The pull rod 5 is at its ends with the free end of each Connected pivot lever 11, the other ends with a pivot shaft 12th are rotatably connected, which is pivotally mounted in a bearing block 20 is attached to the underside of the swing lid 2.

The pivot shaft 12 points - when viewing the container from the front - from the Drawbar 5 outwards in the direction of the side wall 6a or 6b of the container or in the direction of the locking receptacles 4, so that the free End of the pivot shaft 12 in the locking comb 18 and its locking receptacles 4th can intervene. A in and out of the effective range of the locking comb 4 Rotating movable locking projection 3 is achieved in that the pivot shaft 12 has an S-shaped end which is cranked out of the longitudinal direction 10.

When activated, as shown in Fig. 2a, the handle spring 19, the between the pivot lever 11 - as shown in Fig. 2 -, or the cranked Locking projection 3 - as shown in Fig. 3 - and the underside of the swing lid 2 is arranged, the locking projection 3 as far down that at Closing the lid of the locking projection 3 in one of the locking receptacles 4 of the Locking comb 18 retracts, and thereby the closing movement of the swing lid 2 is stopped by either an end stop, for. B. on the bearing block 20, is provided for this activated position, or the Extension of the crank 13 transverse to the longitudinal direction 10 is greater than the distance between the lowest point of one of the locking receptacles 4 on the one hand and the Swivel shaft 12, on the other hand, measured perpendicular to the upper edge of the Sidewall 16a, 16b.

As shown in Fig. 2a, by pulling the pull rod 5 and pulling it to the handle bar 9 'which is also connected to the swivel shaft 12 in a rotationally fixed manner Locking projection 3 are swung high enough that it is above the Latching comb 18 lies, and thereby over the locking comb 18 when the Swing cover 2 is moved away, whereby the locking projection 3 and thus the entire locking device is in the deactivated position.

Fig. 4 shows a further embodiment outside the invention. Here is the Movable locking projection arranged on the body 6, namely in each other opposite side walls, preferably in the upper area, so that only an adult with his arm span these two actuators can operate simultaneously.

The actuator is a push / pull button 14, which extends through the side wall 6a, 6b of the body 6 extends through, and towards the outside by means of a spring 19 ', such as a spiral spring, biased against the side wall 6a, 6b is, so that for pushing in the push / pull button 14 from the outside the force of this spring 19 'must be overcome internally.

Within the body, the push / pull button 14 has a protruding, in particular upward-pointing projection 14 ', that in the left in Fig. 4a Page shown activated position with a locking receptacle 4 "by the Bottom of the swing cover 2 protrudes downwards, cooperates, and thus its closing movement stops.

The locking projection 4 "and / or the push / pull shaft 14 are in one such a position along the side wall 6a that when the a sufficiently large gap between the two elements The front edge of the swing lid 2 and the front wall of the body 6 remains open, to pinch body parts, especially the head or neck a child to avoid reliably.

Instead of the catch 4 "on the inside of the swing lid 2 could also directly leading downwards on the outside of the side walls 6a of the body Struts 15 of the lid can be used. Pressing the push / pull button 14 must then take place so far that the strut 15 over the free outside End of this button can slide away.

It is also possible as a further design according to the invention to use such a push / pull switch instead of on the body 6 to be arranged on the swing lid 2 or its struts 15, and thus interacting catch on the body.

In the right half of Fig. 4a is the deactivated position of the push / pull button 14 shown, in which its projection 14 'so far to the middle of the Containers 1 is shifted out that he no longer with the locking receptacle 4 "in Intervention device. 4b and 4c, the latching device is shown in a top view. It is can be seen that the locking receptacle 4 "and / or the locking projection 14 'in Movement direction 21 of the mutual relative movement are so created that when opening, ie the movement of the locking receptacle 4 "from front to back, the Slant on the opposing component or two opposing components Slopes that slide so that the push / pull switch 14th against the force of the spring 19 'is shifted towards the center of the container and the lid can be opened without pressing the push / pull button, as in Fig. 4c shown. In the closing movement, as shown in Fig. 4b, the Locking receptacle 4 "and the projection 14 'on the other hand with contact surfaces which in run at right angles to the direction of movement 21, against each other and finish the closing process.

5 differs from that of FIG. 3 in the form Storage and actuation of the crank 13 'and its locking projection 3, which in the locking receptacle 4 can intervene:

In Fig. 5, a swing lid 2 can be seen, the one on its front edge has vertically downward-pointing, free-ending leg as edge 25, and at a distance behind it also from the main surface of the cover 2 down pointing web 26 that also ends at the bottom.

At the back of this web 26 is over bearing blocks 20 '- how better in the Top view of the container with the lid partly cut free in FIG. 6 recognize - the pivot shaft 12 'pivotable and parallel to the front edge of the Cover, that is parallel to the direction of the pivot axis 7 'of the swing cover, stored.

Of this main part of the pivot shaft 12 'has at one end - preferably formed in one piece from steel round material - the S-shaped crank 13 with their locking projection 3 as a free end leg down while on the other End has a simple offset as a pivot lever 11 upwards. This free End of the pivot lever 11 penetrates a switching rod 24 through Elongated hole 22 through.

The switching rod 24 is part of the push button 14 ', which is through the web 26th and the edge 25 approximately horizontally and transversely to the direction of the main part the pivot shaft 12 'and thus also transversely to the direction 7' of the pivot axis of the Swing lid is arranged.

The pull switch 14 consists of this switching rod 24, which on the Long end 22 facing away from the front end is connected to a pusher 23, which protrudes through the edge 25, and a front thickened end has, so that it does not pass through the bore in the edge 25 inwards can be pressed.

The pusher 23 has an undercut recess at its rear end to plug in the switching rod 24, which is used for this purpose positive connection with the pusher 23, has missing locking lugs, so that after plugging together the two parts are firmly connected. Before the two parts snap together, a spiral spring 16 is placed over the switching rod 24 is inserted and is thus between the web 26th and the edge 25. The spring 16 'is supported on the one hand on the front of the web 26 and on the other hand on the rear end of the pusher 23, thus presses the pusher 23 into the protruding portion shown in FIG. 5a Position and on the other hand the locking projection 3 in the activated position, that is, if necessary snapped into the catch 4.

By pressing, that is to say pushing the push button inwards, the force of the Spring 16 'overcome, the free end of the pivot lever 11' clockwise about the pivot axis, ie the main part of the pivot shaft 12, rotated and so that the locking projection 3 of the crank 13 outside the area of Rest comb 18 brought.

In the supervision of Fig. 6 it can be seen that the locking receptacles 4 to the Sidewalls of the body 6 of the container are located, and the pusher 23rd in contrast, something is offset towards the center of the front of the container 1. The Distance between the two pushers 23 is still so large that only one Adult, but not a child, can press both pushers 23 simultaneously.

Fig. 7 shows the gravity deactivation of the entire child safety device one of the above-described embodiments.

Fig. 7 shows a view in the direction z. B. Figures 3 and 5 from the inside on the side wall of the container, but omitting the lid and the child lock housed in it.

In Fig. 7 it can be seen how, instead of a fixed locking comb 18, the can have one or more notches, a pivotable detent comb 18 ' Is used, the in the active position shown in Fig. 7 over the Edge 8 of the wall of the body 6 protrudes and its function as a locking comb 18 ' Fulfills.

The locking comb 18 'is part of a plate-shaped comb part 29, which by a Axis 27, which runs perpendicular to the wall of the body 6, parallel to this is attached so that in the active position shown in Fig. 7, the locking comb 18 'protrudes outwards by the comb part 29 with a stop 30 against one Lower edge of the body 6 counterclockwise (shown here left-hand version, viewed from the front of container 1). In this position is the comb part 29 between a tension spring 28 between Comb part 29 and body biased, and additionally in this position by a Nose 34 held in a form-fitting manner by means of a pushing against the nose 34 Pawl 35.

The pawl 35 projects radially inwards in the direction of the axis 27, and is Part of the locking part 31, which is also a plate-shaped part parallel to the wall of the body 6 is pivotally mounted about an axis 27 '. The Axes 27 and 27 'are located on a line that is approximately transverse to edge 8 of the body 6 runs.

The locking part 31 hangs with most of its surface and thus its Mass down from axis 27 'while pawl 35 is at the free end an upwardly projecting extension is arranged.

If the container and its body 6 are now tilted, ie with respect to the axis 27 the axis 27 'shifted counterclockwise, the locking member remains 31 due to gravity with respect to its axis 27 'in the same position as before, so that the pawl 35 out of engagement of the nose 34 of the comb part 29 devices.

The possibility of movement of the locking part 31 is by a on the lower edge provided recess 33 and an extension 32 protruding there, which is fixed with respect to the body 6, limited.

After release of the nose 34, the comb part 29 is only by the force of Torsion spring 28 held in position.

By tilting the container, however, the movement path of the swing lid along the edge 8 of the body 6 ever steeper, and thus the on Locking comb 18 'pressing weight component of the lid is always larger until this weight force overcomes the force of the torsion spring 28 and the comb part 29 pivoted counterclockwise about the axis 27, and the locking projection 3 overcomes the locking comb 18 'with the result of a complete closure of the Cover (not shown) 2.

The axes of rotation 27 and 27 'including the locking part 31 are for Protection against contamination from a housing 36 added which preferably also includes the extension 32.

    the ridge part (29) interacts in a form-locking manner with a locking part (31), which is also pivotally supported and adjusts itself in its rotating position according to gravity, such that the ridge part (29) is locked in the activated position, if the body (6) of the receptacle (1) is not tilted forwards.
15. Receptacle according to claim 13 or 14,
    characterized in that
    only when the receptacle (1) is in an inclined position with respect to the normal, vertical position by more than 15°, in particular more than 10°, is the locking ridge (18') automatically deactivated by means of gravity.
