Description

La présente invention concerne un bac pour la collecte de déchets, équipé d'un transpondeur assujetti à la cuve du bac par des moyens de fixation rapportés sur ce dernier.The present invention relates to a container for collecting waste, equipped with a transponder secured to the tank of the tank by fixing means attached to the latter.

Le transpondeur est destiné à permettre par exemple l'identification du bac par un véhicule de collecte, grâce à un échange de données, de façon connue en soi.The transponder is intended to allow for example identification of the bin by a collection vehicle, thanks to a data exchange, in a manner known per se.

En pesant le bac préalablement au vidage, on peut facturer l'usager en fonction de la quantité de déchets enlevés.By weighing the bin before emptying, you can charge the user depending on the amount of waste removed.

Diverses solutions ont été proposées pour assujettir le transpondeur au bac.Various solutions have been proposed to subject the transponder to the bin.

On a proposé dans le modèle d'utilité allemand 92 12243 de loger le transpondeur, noyé dans un bloc de résine, dans un boítier comprenant deux coquilles rapportées respectivement sur les faces opposées d'une nervure de rigidification du bac, chacune de ces coquilles étant pourvue d'un premier élément de fixation traversant la nervure à la faveur d'un perçage et venant se loger dans un deuxième élément de fixation complémentaire, réalisé sur l'autre coquille.The German utility model 92 12243 has been proposed to place the transponder, embedded in a block of resin, in a case comprising two shells respectively attached to the faces opposite of a stiffening rib of the tank, each of these shells being provided with a first through fastening element the rib thanks to a piercing and coming to be housed in a second complementary fastening element, made on the other shell.

On a également proposé dans le modèle d'utilité allemand 94 02392 d'insérer le transpondeur dans une fente réalisée dans la paroi de la collerette de préhension du bac, immédiatement après le moulage de la matière plastique constituant la cuve et alors que celle-ci est encore molle.We also proposed in the German utility model 94 02392 to insert the transponder into a slot made in the wall of the container grip flange, immediately after molding of the plastic material constituting the tank and while it is still soft.

On a encore proposé dans le brevet européen 495 947 de disposer le transpondeur, noyé dans un bloc de résine, dans un logement du bac fermé au moyen d'une plaque rivetée ou encliquetée.It has also been proposed in European patent 495,947 to place the transponder, embedded in a block of resin, in a container housing closed by means of a riveted or snap-on plate.

Les diverses solutions connues n'offrent pas entière satisfaction.The various known solutions do not offer a whole satisfaction.

En particulier, la mise en place du transpondeur dans le bac, alors que la matière plastique le constituant est encore fluide, nécessite d'adjoindre aux moules utilisés pour la fabrication du bac des équipements annexes relativement coûteux.In particular, the placement of the transponder in the bin, while the plastic material constituting it is still fluid, requires adding to the molds used to make the tray relatively expensive ancillary equipment.

Par ailleurs, lorsque le transpondeur est noyé dans un bloc de résine, il est nécessaire de l'extraire du bac avant de broyer ce dernier en vue du recyclage, sous peine de mélanger des matières plastiques non compatibles du point de vue du recyclage.Furthermore, when the transponder is embedded in a block resin, it is necessary to extract it from the tank before grinding this last for recycling, under penalty of mixing materials plastics not compatible from a recycling point of view.

La présente invention a pour objet un nouveau bac, facile à recycler et pour lequel la mise en place du transpondeur puisse s'effectuer sans équipements coûteux.The present invention relates to a new container, easy to recycle and for which the installation of the transponder can be done without expensive equipment.

Ce bac est du type dans lequel le transpondeur est assujetti à la cuve du bac par des moyens de fixation rapportés sur le bac.This bin is of the type in which the transponder is secured to the tank of the tank by fixing means attached to the tank.

Conformément à l'invention, les moyens de fixation sont agencés pour venir directement au contact du transpondeur.According to the invention, the fixing means are arranged to come directly into contact with the transponder.

En d'autres termes, le transpondeur peut être mis en place sur le bac sans avoir à être au préalable noyé en totalité dans un bloc de résine.In other words, the transponder can be set up on the tank without having to be drowned entirely in a resin block.

Les moyens de fixation sont avantageusement réalisés en un ou plusieurs matériaux choisis pour être compatibles, du point de vue du recyclage, avec la matière plastique utilisée pour réaliser la cuve.The fixing means are advantageously made in one or several materials chosen to be compatible, from the point of view recycling, with the plastic used to make the tank.

Ainsi, il n'est pas nécessaire, grâce à l'invention, d'extraire le transpondeur avant de broyer le bac en vue du recyclage, et l'on évite ainsi une opération parfois fastidieuse avec les bacs connus.Thus, it is not necessary, thanks to the invention, extract the transponder before shredding the tank for the recycling, thus avoiding a sometimes tedious operation with known bins.

Dans une réalisation particulière, les moyens de fixation utilisés pour assujettir le transpondeur au bac comportent au moins une pièce de maintien à introduire dans un logement du bac.In a particular embodiment, the fixing means used to secure the transponder to the bin have at least a holding part to be introduced into a housing of the tank.

Toujours dans une réalisation particulière, le logement précité est situé sous la collerette de prehension du bac, étant de préférence ouvert vers le bas et présentant avantageusement une surface intérieure lisse avant la mise en place de la pièce de maintien.Still in a particular realization, the accommodation above is located under the grip of the tray, being of preferably open at the bottom and advantageously having a smooth interior surface before fitting the workpiece maintenance.

Dans une réalisation préférée, les moyens de fixation comportent un boítier à l'intérieur duquel est logé le transpondeur.In a preferred embodiment, the fixing means have a box inside which is housed the transponder.

Ce boítier comporte avantageusement un corps de boítier et un couvercle réunis par encliquetage et le transpondeur comporte de préférence un circuit imprimé pincé entre le corps de boítier et le couvercle.This case advantageously comprises a case body and a cover snapped together and the transponder has preferably a pinched printed circuit between the housing body and the lid.

Ce boítier peut être facilement mis en place sur le bac, sans équipement coûteux. This box can be easily set up on the tank, without expensive equipment.

Le corps de boítier présente de préférence une gorge annulaire et le couvercle une nervure conformée pour s'encliqueter de manière indémontable dans la gorge précitée.The housing body preferably has a groove annular and the cover a rib shaped to snap cannot be dismantled in the aforementioned groove.

Dans une réalisation préférée, le corps de boítier est fileté extérieurement, et présente sur sa face intérieure, accessible depuis l'extérieur du bac, des reliefs destinés à coopérer avec un outil en vue du démontage le cas échéant.In a preferred embodiment, the housing body is threaded externally, and present on its interior face, accessible from the outside of the tank, reliefs intended to cooperate with a tool for disassembly if necessary.

On a représenté isolément sur les figures 3 à 6 le corps de boítier 7.FIGS. 3 to 6 show the body of housing 7.

Ce corps de boítier 7 comporte un fond 9 se raccordant, à sa périphérie, à mi-hauteur environ d'une jupe tubulaire 10 d'axe X.This housing body 7 has a bottom 9 connecting, at its periphery, about halfway up a tubular skirt 10 of axis X.

La surface extérieure du corps de boítier 7 présente un filetage 11.The outer surface of the housing body 7 has a thread 11.

Le corps de boítier 7 comporte en outre, en partie inférieure, comme on peut le voir sur la figure 3, des extensions 12 qui prolongent vers l'intérieur la jupe 10 en deux emplacements diamétralement opposés et qui définissent deux logements 13 permettant d'insérer les broches d'un outil en vue du démontage, comme cela sera précisé plus loin.The housing body 7 further comprises, in part lower, as can be seen in Figure 3, extensions 12 which extend inward the skirt 10 in two locations diametrically opposite and which define two housings 13 allowing the pins of a tool to be inserted for disassembly, as will be explained later.

Le fond 9 présente dans sa partie centrale un renfoncement 14, s'étendant perpendiculairement à l'axe X.The bottom 9 has in its central part a recess 14, extending perpendicular to the X axis.

Ce renfoncement 14 se raccorde à sa périphérie par une surface conique à une zone annulaire 15 légèrement surélevée, laquelle s'étend également perpendiculairement a l'axe X.This recess 14 is connected to its periphery by a conical surface with a slightly raised annular zone 15, which also extends perpendicular to the X axis.

Le corps de boítier 7 comporte en partie supérieure une gorge annulaire 16, destinée au montage du couvercle 8, réalisée sur la surface intérieure de la jupe tubulaire 10.The housing body 7 has in the upper part a groove annular 16, intended for mounting the cover 8, produced on the inner surface of the tubular skirt 10.

Le couvercle 8 présente un bord relevé avec, à son extrémité supérieure, un rebord 18 dirigé radialement vers l'extérieur et destiné à s'appliquer sur la tranche supérieure 19 du corps de boítier 7.The cover 8 has a raised edge with, at its end upper, a rim 18 directed radially outwards and intended to be applied to the upper edge 19 of the body of housing 7.

Le bord relevé du couvercle 8 est muni en outre d'une nervure 17 destinée à s'encliqueter dans la gorge annulaire 16 du corps de boítier 7.The raised edge of the cover 8 is further provided with a rib 17 intended to snap into the annular groove 16 of the body housing 7.

La face inférieure du couvercle 8 présente un léger renfoncement 20. The underside of the cover 8 has a slight recess 20.

Le transpondeur 6 comporte dans l'exemple de réalisation décrit un circuit imprimé 21 comportant une piste conductrice constituant l'antenne et supportant sur une face un circuit intégré 22 contenant les composants électroniques actifs du transpondeur 6 protégés par un matériau isolant.The transponder 6 comprises in the embodiment example describes a printed circuit 21 comprising a conductive track constituting the antenna and supporting on one side an integrated circuit 22 containing the active electronic components of the transponder 6 protected by insulating material.

Le circuit imprimé est avantageusement recouvert d'un vernis protecteur.The printed circuit is advantageously covered with a varnish protective.

Le fond 9 du corps de boítier 7 est dimensionné de telle sorte que le circuit imprimé 21 repose sur la zone annulaire 15 lorsque le transpondeur 6 est en place.The bottom 9 of the housing body 7 is dimensioned such that so that the printed circuit 21 rests on the annular zone 15 when the transponder 6 is in place.
