Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a waste collector a container containing the waste, comprising a Lid, which is by lowering one on the waste collector the attached foot lever can be opened, with the lid off there are two approximately the same size cover segments, each have their own external pivot axis and at Swing the actuation of the foot lever up like a wing door.
  • Waste collectors of this type are well known.
  • the Waste collector of this type with a foot pedal opening hinged lids usually have one cylindrical housing with a corresponding cylindrical usually removable container for the waste.
  • the GB shows 257 081 a waste collector of the type mentioned, the has a rectangular plan and two approximately the same has large lid segments, each with its own have external pivot axis, the two Lid segments also have a rectangular outline.
  • the well-known waste collectors with a foot pedal pressure Opening lids also have the disadvantage that the lid due to its construction, it opens in such a way that it maximum opening position not completely vertical but something is inclined towards the front. This does not result in any optimal conditions for the disposal of waste.
  • the one from above seen from the maximum available opening cross-section of the Waste receptacle is partially covered through the slightly protruding lid.
  • the object of the present invention is a To create waste collectors of the type mentioned, the better availability of the opening after opening the Guaranteed cover.
  • a solution according to the invention provides this object Waste collector of the type mentioned at the beginning with the characteristic features of the main claim.
  • the lid is made up of two part-circular ones of about the same size Cover segments exist, each with its own have external pivot axis and when actuated of the foot lever swings up like a wing door, says after Open the lid of the opening in the middle practically completely available so that you can waste throw in practically immediately vertically from above can.
  • the task solution according to the invention provides that Waste collector housing a part-circular plan having.
  • a quarter-circle outline is particularly preferred (Floor plan) of the waste collector.
  • the quarter-circle outline has the advantage that you then have two identical designs Garbage collectors of this type can stand side by side, so to get a semicircular outline, that is a body with a half cylinder housing.
  • the individual waste collector with a quarter-circular outline then has two lid segments each with an approximately eighth-circle outline.
  • the Quarter-circle outline shape therefore enables the assembly especially from two or four of these waste collectors optimal use of space without any dead zones and under Creation of a waste collector ensemble with an aesthetic attractive design.
  • Inner containers Compared to a waste collector with several smaller ones Inner containers also result in greater flexibility Use of waste separation.
  • the user can first an existing waste collector for a pure waste type or use without waste separation. If he does wishes to have a larger absorption capacity or separate waste, he can use a second waste collector of the same type acquire and these two waste collectors immediately side by side and then for different types of waste or use for a larger waste capacity.
  • As well offers a third or fourth waste collector of the same Type further separation options, with four Waste collector to a total of approximately cylindrical Complete the overall arrangement, but a much larger one Have waste capacity as if you had one conventional cylindrical waste collectors by appropriate Inner container divided into several inner compartments.
  • the Mechanism for opening the lid segments preferably one linkage that is operationally connected to the foot pedal at least one vertically arranged bar for each Cover segment, with the rod in its upper end area is articulated on the underside of the cover segment. If then the foot pedal is operated, the rods are synchronized for all (preferably two) lid segments raised and both cover segments synchronously upwards and outwards pivoted about their respective external pivot axis.
  • the rod is preferably in parts of the housing of the Waste collector in the direction transverse to its longitudinal axis slidably guided. This movement of the rod results in a constructive training of the aforementioned type in that the pivot axis of the cover segment is fixed, but the pivot point of the rod on the lever arm when opening of the cover segment usually on a circular path relocated.
  • a further development of the invention provides that continue a damping device is provided, by means of which the Return movement (lowering movement) of the rods and thus the Lid segments is braked after releasing the foot pedal. This can prevent that after releasing the foot pedal the lid makes an unpleasant noise when it closes.
  • a damping device can, for example Include spring mechanism or preferably a Rack and pinion gear or equivalent gear elements.
  • the waste collector according to the invention is generally designated 1 in FIG. 1.
  • This waste collector 1 consists of a housing 2, which can for example consist of sheet metal and which, as can be seen, has a quarter-circular outline.
  • the housing has a cover consisting of two part-circular cover segments 10, 11 of approximately the same size, each of which has an approximately eighth-circle outline.
  • the opening of the cover segments 10, 11 takes place by actuating a foot lever 15, which is articulated on the underside of the two cover segments 10, 11 via a linkage, which is not shown in FIG. 1, so that when the foot lever 15 is lowered, the two Lid segments 10, 11 are raised and each swing up about their own external pivot axis 12, 13 approximately like a wing door.
  • the pivot axes 12, 13 run, as can be seen in FIG. 1, in each case approximately parallel to the outer boundary edge of the waste collector 1.
  • the housing 2 of the waste collector also rests in a base part 3, which can be made of plastic, for example, and which consists, for example, of sheet metal Border housing 2 in the lower area.
  • the foot lever 15 has a part-circular ring shape and extends into the foot part 3 at both ends thereof.
  • the partially annular foot lever 15, which is designed as a type of pedal bracket, is pivotally mounted in the foot part 3 about an axis which extends approximately transversely through the waste collector.
  • the waste collector also includes an upper part 4, which is also preferably made of plastic and on which the two cover segments 10, 11 are mounted in the closed position.
  • FIG. 2 The illustration shows the waste collector 1 from the side. you recognizes here the pivot axis 15a of the part-ring Foot lever 15 and part of the mechanism is shown which serves to open the cover segments 10, 11.
  • This is the Foot lever 15 inside the waste collector 1 as a linkage formed with an operating section 15b, the rear end is raised when lowering the foot pedal 15.
  • This actuating section 15b is in turn articulated with vertically arranged rods 20 connected when lowering of the foot pedal 15 from the rear end of the Actuating section 15b can be raised.
  • rods 20 There are two such rods provided, as can be seen in Fig. 4. The details of this boom will be discussed later explained in more detail. For each of the two cover segments 10, 11 such a rod 20 is required for lifting.
  • a return spring 28 can be located in the lower region of the rod 20 be arranged, which is a return movement, that is Lowering movement of the rod 20 after releasing the foot pedal 15 supports, so that the cover segments 10, 11 better pulled out of the vertical position into a tilt position from which they then automatically fall.
  • a damping device 27 provided by means of which the return movement of the rods 20 and thus the cover segments 10, 11 after releasing the foot pedal 15 is braked.
  • This damping device 27 can for example a rack and pinion gear with Gear include, which is not explained here.
  • This damping device 27 is the subject of another Registration of the applicant.
  • 3a shows the top view Waste collector with closed lid segments 10, 11, whereas in Fig. 3b the lid segments are open, so that the opening of the waste collector is free.
  • the vertical rods 20, 21 for recognize the lifting of the lid segments 10, 11, and the Recesses 25 in which the rods 20, 21 when lifting the Cover segments 10, 11 in the direction transverse to their longitudinal axis are slidably mounted.
  • the cover segments 10, 11 namely the rods 20, 21 experience a light Transverse displacement, which is indicated by the arrows in Fig. 3b is.
  • the two cover segments 10, 11 are open, see above that you can see the short lever arms 23, respectively which the rods 20, 21 each have in their upper end region are articulated. These short lever arms 23 are on the other end with the underside of the cover segment 10, 11 rigidly connected.
  • FIGS. 4a, 4b The movement conditions when opening the cover segments 10, 11 can be based on FIGS. 4a, 4b, on the following Reference is made to explain clearly.
  • Fig. are only the essential for the explanation of the invention Parts shown.
  • Fig. 4b shows that fully open cover segment 11, which is in a about vertical position. You can also see here the outer pivot axis 13 around which the cover segment 11 pivots during the opening movement.
  • the rod 21 in its upper end region bend inwards directed away from the cover segment 11 has an obtuse angle.
  • the hinge axis between Rod 21 and lever arm 23, that is the upper articulation point the rod 21 is designated 29. You can also see the guide slot 25 already shown in FIG. 3a, within which the rod 21 is in the opening movement of the cover segment 11 shifted transversely.
  • FIG. 4a shows two positions of the cover segment 11 shown, namely once the closed position in solid lines and once an approximately half-open one Position in dashed lines. You can see that that Cover segment 11, 11 'pivots about the pivot axis 13 and it will also the movement of the rod 21 and the short Lever arm 23 clearly when opening the cover segment 11, 11 '. The respective parts are in the open position with 21 ' or 23 '.
  • FIG. 4 From this Representation once again shows the context of the movement of the two rods 20, 21 for the two cover segments 10, 11 clearly. Unlike in FIGS. 4a and 4b, both are here Bars 20, 21 shown, both in their upper End area where they lift the lid segments 10, 11 as well in its lower end area so that you can connect to the Recognize the operating section 15b of the linkage of the foot pedal can.
  • the representation is again simplified schematically. 4, the two rods 20, 21 are once in one bottom position shown in solid lines that the closed position of the two cover segments 10, 11 equivalent. The upward or downward movement of the Rods 20, 21 each time the foot pedal 15 is actuated indicated by arrows.
  • the end of the Actuating section 15b becomes when the foot lever 15 is lowered raised so that the rods 20, 21 are pushed upwards become.
  • the respective upper ends move accordingly the rods 20, 21 upwards and press the short lever arm 23 upwards, so that the cover segments 10, 11 around their external pivot axes 12, 13 like a wing door upwards swivel or fold.
  • the open position of the Cover segments are shown at 10 'and 11', respectively in dashed lines as well as the position of the two Rods that are in the open position with 20 'or 21' are designated. 4 can also be seen quite well in FIG. that the pivot point 29 of the rod 21 on the lever arm 23 at Opening the lid segment 11 moves on a circular path.
  • each Rods 20, 21 are articulated about a horizontal axis 28 pivotally connected to the operating portion 15b.
