Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Container zur Aufnahme und Speicherung von Müll, vorzugsweise einen Wechselcontainer für Müllsammelfahrzeuge, mit einer durch eine verschiebliche Verschlußplatte verschließbaren Einfüllöffnung.The invention relates to a container for receiving and storing waste, preferably an interchangeable container for refuse collection vehicles, with a through a slidable filler opening.

Ein Container dieser Art, der auf das Fahrgestell eines Müllsammelfahrzeugs aufsetzbar und mit diesem in der Weise kuppelbar ist, daß sich die Einfüllöffnung hinter der Ausschuböffnung eines hinter dem Fahrerhaus des Müllsammelfahrzeugs angeordneten Einschüttraum für den Müll befindet, so daß der Müll durch einen Preßstempel aus dem Einschüttraum durch die Öffnung des Containers in diesen eingeschoben werden kann, ist beispielsweise aus der WO 95/31388 bekannt. Wechselcontainer sind üblicherweise auf ihrer der Einfüllöffnung gegenüberliegenden Seite mit einer abklappbaren und verriegelbaren Rückwand versehen, so daß zum Entleeren der Wechselcontainer ein großer Querschnitt zur Verfügung steht.A container of this type that can be placed on the chassis of a refuse collection vehicle and can be coupled with it in such a way that the filling opening is behind the opening of one behind the cab of the refuse collection vehicle arranged disposal room for the garbage, so that the garbage through a Press stamp from the bin through the opening of the container in it can be inserted, is known for example from WO 95/31388. Swap containers are usually on their opposite the filling opening Side with a hinged and lockable rear wall, so that a large cross-section is available for emptying the swap bodies.

Ein besonderes Problem bei Wechselcontainern dieser Art besteht darin, daß der in diesen durch den Preßstempel des Einschüttraums eingeschobene Müll nach dem Zurückfahren des Preßstempels dazu neigt, insbesondere im unteren Bereich der Einfüllöffnung wieder aus dem Container auszutreten, so daß sich dieser durch Absenken der in Führungen der Stirnplatte geführten und durch angetriebene Dorne o.dgl. verfahrbaren Verschlußplatte nicht völlig verschließen läßt, weil sich die Unterseite der Einfüllöffnung mit Müll zugelegt hat.A particular problem with swap bodies of this type is that the in this rubbish inserted by the ram of the bin after the Retraction of the ram tends to, especially in the lower area of the Filling opening to exit the container so that it is lowered the mandrels guided in the end plate guides and driven by or the like. movable closure plate can not be completely closed, because the bottom the filling opening with garbage has increased.

Um ein vollständiges Verschließen der üblicherweise als Schafott bezeichneten Verschlußplatte des Wechselcontainers nach dem Abdocken von einem Müllsammelfahrzeug zu ermöglichen, ist nach der auf einer älteren Anmeldung beruhenden, aber nicht vorveröffentlichten DE 198 20 665 A1 vorgesehen, daß die Ausschuböffnung des fahrzeugseitigen Einschüttraums mit einem diesen überragenden Bodenblech und seitlichen Abdeckblechen versehen ist, die im an den Einschüttraum angekuppelten Zustand des Containers eine Nut im unteren Bereich von dessen Einfüllöffnung, die der Aufnahme des Schafotts im geschlossenen Zustand dient, überdeckt. Diese bekannte Ausgestaltung der Ausschuböffnung des fahrzeugseitigen Einschüttraums verhindert zwar, daß sich Müll während des Überschiebens in den Container in der Nut ablagert und diese zusetzt. Andererseits vermag die bekannte Vorrichtung nicht zu verhindern, daß nach dem Abschieben des Containers von dem Einschüttraum und dadurch bedingtes Freigeben der Bodennut in diese aus dem Container vor dem Verschließen des Schafotts austretender Müll gelangt. Klemmen sich jedoch beim Verschließen des Schafotts zwischen dessen Unterkante und dem unteren Bereich der Einfüllöffnung Gegenstände ein, läßt sich das Schafott nicht vollständig schließen, so daß auch die Endlage des Schafotts nicht der Position der fahrzeugseitigen Aufnahmedome entspricht, die mit einem Antrieb versehen sind und dem Öffnen und Verschließen des Schafotts dienen.To completely close what is commonly referred to as a scaffold Locking plate of the swap body after undocking from a refuse collection vehicle according to the older registration, but not previously published DE 198 20 665 A1 provided that the ejection opening the vehicle-side storage compartment with a floor panel protruding from it and side cover plates is provided, which are coupled to the storage compartment Condition of the container a groove in the lower area of its filling opening, which serves to accommodate the sheep's moth when closed, covered. This known configuration of the opening on the vehicle side Dumping room prevents rubbish from getting into it when pushed over deposits the container in the groove and clogs it. On the other hand, the well-known Device does not prevent after pushing the container from the pouring-in space and thereby releasing the floor groove into it garbage escaping from the container before closing the scaffold. However, when closing the scaffold, get stuck between its lower edge and the lower area of the filling opening objects, that can be Do not close the scaffold completely, so that the end position of the scaffold does not corresponds to the position of the vehicle-side mounting dome with a drive are provided and serve to open and close the scaffold.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, einen Container der eingangs angegebenen Art zu schaffen, dessen Verschlußplatte sich bei guter Abdichtung der Einfüllöffnung immer vollständig in die Verschlußstellung schieben läßt.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a container of the type specified to create, the closure plate with a good seal of the fill opening always slide completely into the closed position.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß die Verschlußplatte an ihrem unteren Rand eine elastisch verformbare Dichtlippe trägt, die sich im geschlossenen Zustand unverformt an die untere Begrenzung der Einfüllöffnung anlegt.According to the invention this object is achieved in that the closure plate its lower edge carries an elastically deformable sealing lip, which is in the closed Undeformed condition at the lower limit of the filler opening invests.

Sollten sich beim Verfahren der Verschlußplatte oder des Schafotts in die Verschlußstellung zwischen dieser und der unteren Begrenzung der Einfüllöffnung, die beispielsweise aus einem die Einfüllöffnung begrenzenden Rahmenholm bestehen kann, Gegenstände befinden, drücken sich diese elastisch in die Dichtlippe ein, ohne jedoch zu verhindern, daß die Verschlußplatte insgesamt in ihre Verschlußstellung verfahren werden kann. Dadurch, daß die Dichtlippe verformbar ist, behindem von dieser eingeklemmte Gegenstände den vollständigen Verschluß in anderen Bereichen nicht. Weiterhin wird die Verschlußplatte immer vollständig in ihre Verschlußstellung verfahren, so daß die fahrzeugseitigen Dorne, die in kuppelnde Öffnungen der Verschlußplatte greifen, immer richtig zu den Verschlußöffnungen positioniert sind. Hinsichtlich der die Verschlußplatte verschiebenden fahrzeugseitigen Dorne wird auf die WO 95/31388 und die DE 198 20 665.8 A1 verwiesen.Should move into the locking position when moving the locking plate or the scaffold between this and the lower limit of the filling opening, the consist for example of a frame spar delimiting the filling opening objects, they press elastically into the sealing lip, without, however, preventing the closure plate from being in its closed position as a whole can be moved. The fact that the sealing lip is deformable hinders from this jammed objects the complete closure in others Areas not. Furthermore, the closure plate is always completely in your Move the locking position so that the vehicle-side mandrels that engage in Openings of the locking plate always grip the locking openings correctly are positioned. With regard to the vehicle-side moving the closure plate Thorns are referred to WO 95/31388 and DE 198 20 665.8 A1.

Zweckmäßigerweise besteht die Dichtlippe aus Gummi oder einem anderen elastomeren Material.The sealing lip expediently consists of rubber or another elastomer Material.

Die Dichtlippe kann als den unteren Rand der Verschlußplatte überragender Streifen ausgebildet sein.The sealing lip can act as a strip projecting beyond the lower edge of the closure plate be trained.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die Dichtlippe mit etwa rechtwinkelig zu dem unteren Rand der Verschlußplatte verlaufenden Einschnitten versehen ist. Durch diese Einschnitte, die zweckmäßigerweise in gleichen Abständen parallel zueinander verlaufen, kann erreicht werden, daß eingeklemmte Gegenstände immer nur die durch Einschnitte begrenzten Abschnitte der Dichtlippe anheben.In a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that the sealing lip with about incisions perpendicular to the lower edge of the closure plate is provided. Through these incisions, which are expediently at equal intervals run parallel to each other, can be achieved that jammed objects only the sections of the sealing lip delimited by incisions Lift.

Die untere Begrenzung der Einfüllöffnung kann ein Z-förmig abgekröpftes Profil besitzen, wobei der Mittelsteg des Profils die Dichtfläche bildet. The lower limit of the filling opening can have a Z-shaped cranked profile, the central web of the profile forms the sealing surface.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist die Einfüllöffnung rechteckig ausgebildet.The filling opening is expediently rectangular.
