Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to vehicles for refuse collection.
  • the invention relates to a light weight lorry for refuse collection, particularly in urban areas, of the type comprising a dump body which defines a tank for containing refuse that is unloaded inside it by a device for lifting and tipping up trolleyed refuse bins, the said device being set in an area adjacent to the rear wall of the dump body.
  • the total weight of the lorry understood as the sum of the empty weight of the vehicle together with the corresponding equipment and of the load corresponding to the carrying capacity, must not exceed 3500 kg. This is in fact the limit both for the vehicle to be driven without the need for a licence for driving heavy lorries and for it to be able to circulate in any urban area. In order to ensure an economically acceptable carrying capacity, it is therefore necessary to reduce as much as possible the empty weight of the vehicle with its equipment, and in particular the weight of the dump body and the corresponding tipping system.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to provide a simple and functional solution for reconciling the above-mentioned requirements, namely for providing a lightweight vehicle for refuse collection of the type specified above, arranged for carrying out a function of compacting of refuse inside the refuse-containing tank without increasing significantly the empty weight of the vehicle, and hence without appreciably reducing its carrying capacity, given the same total weight.
  • the above purpose is achieved essentially thanks to the fact that the rear wall of the refuse-containing tank can, at least in part, be made to advance towards the front part of the dump body.
  • the vehicle according to the invention is able to carry out sufficient compacting of the refuse inside the refuse-containing tank without the need to resort to traditional compacting apparatus, which is complex from the constructional standpoint and in any case heavy, at the same time maintaining the carrying capacity substantially unaltered as compared to that of a vehicle not equipped with compacting apparatus.
  • the aforesaid rear wall of the refuse-containing tank is able to turn about a bottom horizontal axis, and actuating means are provided for controlling rotation of said rear wall between a moved-backward position and a moved-forward position.
  • the dump body is conveniently made up of a load-bearing framework to which containment plates are fixed.
  • the said containment plates are preferably made of aluminium or alloys thereof, whilst the load-bearing framework and the rear wall that performs the function of compacter are preferably made of high-strength steel.
  • the lorry basically comprises a chassis 1 which carries at the front a driving cab 2 with the engine, and at the rear a dump body 3 which is at least partially open upwards and which defines a refuse-containing tank.
  • the dump body 3 can, in a way generally of itself known, be tipped between the lowered position illustrated in the drawing and a raised position for unloading the refuse contained inside the tank.
  • tipping of the dump body is actuated by means of a single long hydraulic jack 8 set in front of the dump body 3 in a substantially vertical condition.
  • the vehicle is provided at the rear with an assembly 6 for picking up, lifting and tipping up trolleyed refuse bins, for example of the type having a capacity of between 120 and 1100 litres.
  • the dump body 3 is made up of a load-bearing framework 4 consisting of high-strength steel elements on which are applied, conveniently by means of a special adhesive-bonding agent (namely, without hot welds), containment walls 5 made of aluminium or its alloys. Thanks to the above structure, the weight of the dump body 3 is considerably contained.
  • a compacting apparatus having a simple and essential conformation, but at the same time a high level of functionality.
  • the said compacting apparatus simply consists of the rear wall itself of the dump body 3, designated by 6, which can be displaced for most of its extension between a moved-backward position, in which it delimits the refuse-containing tank at the rear, and a moved-forward position inside said tank, in such a way as to subject the refuse contained therein to an albeit modest compacting, as a result of which the loading space of the tank can be exploited in an optimal way.
  • the displacement of the rear wall 6, which is also normally made of high-strength steel is obtained by means of rotation of said rear wall 6, about a bottom horizontal pivot 7 carried by the framework 4, from the position indicated by a solid line in the figure (where the rear wall 6 is inclined upwards and backwards) to the position indicated by a dashed line (where the rear wall 6 is inclined upwards but forwards), passing through the intermediate vertical position indicated by a dashed-and-dotted line.
  • the angular amplitude of the operative displacement of the rear wall 6 is indicated by A in the figure.
  • the angular displacement of the rear wall 6 from the moved-backward position to the moved-forward position, as a result of which the refuse contained -in the tank is displaced and compacted in the direction of the front part of the dump body 3, is obtained by means of any suitable actuating system, which is within the reach of any person skilled in the branch and which is not illustrated for reasons of simplicity.
  • the said actuating system may be made up of a pair of lateral hydraulic jacks set between special appendages of the load-bearing framework 4 and the opposite sides of the rear wall 6.
