Description

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de remplissage d'un espace de stockage de déchets, notamment de déchets contenus dans des sacs.The present invention relates to a device for filling a space of storage of waste, in particular waste contained in bags.

Il existe actuellement un dispositif de collecte de déchets muni d'une trappe pivotante définissant un réceptacle pour des sacs de déchets. Dans la pratique, l'utilisateur ouvre la trappe en la faisant pivoter vers lui et introduit le sac dans le réceptacle, puis fait basculer la trappe pour la refermer de manière à ce que le sac puisse tomber dans un espace de stockage. Ce dispositif présente l'inconvénient que le réceptacle comporte une paroi de fond qui, lorsque la trappe est refermée, prend une orientation non complètement verticale et peut empêcher, par coincement, la chute du sac dans l'espace de stockage.There is currently a waste collection device with a hatch pivoting defining a receptacle for bags of waste. In practice, the user open the hatch by rotating it towards him and introduce the bag into the receptacle, then make tilt the hatch to close it so that the bag can fall into a space of storage. This device has the disadvantage that the receptacle has a wall of bottom which, when the hatch is closed, takes a not completely vertical orientation and can prevent the bag from falling into the storage space by jamming.

Ce type de dispositif peut être associé à un système électronique permettant de contrôler l'ouverture de la trappe après identification de l'utilisateur, par exemple au moyen d'une carte à puce, et mémoriser la quantité de déchets introduits dans le dispositif de collecte par l'utilisateur de manière à déterminer le montant que l'utilisateur doit régler périodiquement, en fonction de la quantité de déchets introduits dans le dispositif. Ainsi, dans ce type de dispositif, il est particulièrement important que le sac ne se coince pas lors de la fermeture de la trappe car, dans ce cas, l'utilisateur suivant, après l'ouverture de la trappe, ne pourrait pas introduire son sac de déchets, ce qui est dommageable puisque le système électronique aura quand même mémorisé pour cet utilisateur une quantité de déchets déposés.This type of device can be associated with an electronic system allowing control the opening of the hatch after user identification, for example by a smart card, and memorize the quantity of waste introduced into the collected by the user in order to determine the amount that the user must pay periodically, depending on the amount of waste introduced into the device. So, in this type of device, it is particularly important that the bag does not get stuck when closing the hatch because, in this case, the next user, after opening the hatch, could not introduce its bag of waste, which is harmful since the electronic system will still have memorized for this user an amount of waste deposited.

On connaít par ailleurs du brevet DE 195 27 408 un sas de remplissage d'un conteneur, comportant deux demi-cylindres creux de diamètres différents. Les demi-cylindres sont aptes à pivoter sensiblement d'un demi-tour, en sens inverse, entre une position extrême supérieure et une position extrême inférieure. Dans ces positions extrêmes, le demi-cylindre qui présente le plus grand diamètre entoure sensiblement le demi-cylindre de diamètre plus petit. Ce sas de remplissage présente une structure relativement complexe car les deux demi-cylindres doivent être entraínés en rotation simultanément et en sens inverse. De plus, lors de la fermeture du sas, des déchets peuvent être coincés entre les deux demi-cylindres et en empêcher la fermeture. We also know from patent DE 195 27 408 an airlock for filling a container, comprising two hollow half-cylinders of different diameters. Half cylinders are able to pivot substantially by half a turn, in the opposite direction, between a extreme upper position and an extreme lower position. In these positions extremes, the half-cylinder with the largest diameter substantially surrounds the smaller diameter half cylinder. This filling airlock has a structure relatively complex because the two half-cylinders must be rotated simultaneously and in reverse. In addition, when the airlock closes, waste can be trapped between the two half-cylinders and prevent their closing.

On connaít également par la demande DE 42 02 208 un dispositif de collecte de déchets comportant une trappe constituée par deux parties pivotantes aptes à s'écarter pour laisser tomber les déchets dans l'espace de stockage.We also know from the application DE 42 02 208 a collection device of waste comprising a hatch constituted by two pivoting parts able to move away to drop the waste into the storage space.

La demande de brevet DE 199 31 871 décrit un dispositif de collecte de déchets comportant un tambour pour recevoir des déchets et un capot pivotant.Patent application DE 199 31 871 describes a device for collecting waste comprising a drum for receiving waste and a pivoting cover.

Le modèle d'utilité DE 298 19 219 décrit un dispositif de collecte comportant un capot et un tambour aptes à tourner de manière concomitante, suivant des sens opposés.The utility model DE 298 19 219 describes a collection device comprising a cover and a drum able to rotate concomitantly, in opposite directions.

Le modèle d'utilité DE 94 07 814 décrit un dispositif de collecte comprenant un couvercle et un tambour rotatif actionnable par une poignée.The utility model DE 94 07 814 describes a collection device comprising a cover and a rotary drum operable by a handle.

Les tambours précités accomplissent des rotations d'angle inférieur à 180° lors du vidage.The aforementioned drums perform rotations of angle less than 180 ° during emptying.

Il existe un besoin pour rendre les dispositifs de remplissage d'un espace de stockage de déchets plus fiables, pour éviter notamment les dysfonctionnements liés à un coincement des déchets.There is a need to make the devices for filling a space of more reliable waste storage, in particular to avoid malfunctions linked to waste jamming.

L'invention a ainsi pour objet un dispositif de remplissage comportant :

  • un bâti présentant un accès et apte à être relié à un espace de stockage de déchets, notamment de déchets contenus dans des sacs,
  • un réceptacle rotatif logé dans le bâti et apte à être entraíné en rotation entre une première position permettant d'introduire des déchets dans le réceptacle par l'accès du bâti et une deuxième position permettant à des déchets introduits dans le réceptacle de tomber par gravité dans l'espace de stockage,
  • un capot mobile entre une position de fermeture de l'accès et une position d'ouverture laissant dégagé l'accès, le capot étant apte à occuper sa position de fermeture lorsque le réceptacle passe de la première position à la deuxième position.
The subject of the invention is therefore a filling device comprising:
  • a frame having an access and capable of being connected to a waste storage space, in particular of waste contained in bags,
  • a rotary receptacle housed in the frame and adapted to be rotated between a first position allowing the introduction of waste into the receptacle through the access of the frame and a second position allowing waste introduced into the receptacle to fall by gravity into storage space,
  • a cover movable between an access closed position and an open position leaving access open, the cover being able to occupy its closed position when the receptacle passes from the first position to the second position.

Grâce à l'invention, on diminue le risque de coincement de déchets, notamment entre le réceptacle et le capot, lors de la rotation du réceptacle de la première position à la deuxième position, car le capot peut être fermé préalablement à la mise en rotation du réceptacle.Thanks to the invention, the risk of waste jamming is reduced, in particular between the receptacle and the cover, during the rotation of the receptacle of the first position to the second position, because the cover can be closed prior to setting rotation of the receptacle.

Le fait que le capot soit fermé lors de la rotation du réceptacle permet en outre d'éviter le risque d'accident, par exemple d'une personne qui se coince la main dans le réceptacle. The fact that the cover is closed during the rotation of the receptacle also allows to avoid the risk of accident, for example of a person getting their hand caught in the receptacle.

Dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, l'accès est situé sur une face avant du bâti et au moins une portion du réceptacle adjacente à l'accès dans la première position atteint un point haut lors de la rotation du réceptacle de la première position à la deuxième position.In an exemplary implementation of the invention, the access is located on a front face of the frame and at least a portion of the receptacle adjacent to the access in the first position reaches a high point when rotating the receptacle of the first position at the second position.

Dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, le réceptacle effectue, pour passer de la première position à la deuxième position, une rotation d'angle supérieur à 180°, de préférence voisin de 240°.In an exemplary implementation of the invention, the receptacle performs, for move from the first position to the second position, an angle rotation greater than 180 °, preferably around 240 °.

Autrement dit, le réceptacle comportant une ouverture pour y introduire des déchets, l'ouverture passe par une position dans laquelle elle est dirigée vers le haut.In other words, the receptacle comprising an opening for introducing therein waste, the opening passes through a position in which it is directed upwards.

Ainsi, les déchets introduits dans le réceptacle tombent dans l'espace de stockage en étant relativement éloignés de la face avant du bâti.Thus, the waste introduced into the receptacle falls into the space of storage being relatively distant from the front face of the frame.

Ceci est particulièrement avantageux lorsque le dispositif de remplissage est disposé au-dessus d'une partie avant de l'espace de stockage, notamment pour rendre le dispositif de remplissage facilement accessible aux utilisateurs, car l'on évite que les déchets ne s'accumulent dans cette partie avant en leur permettant de tomber par exemple sensiblement au centre de cet espace de stockage. On peut obtenir ainsi un meilleur remplissage de l'espace de stockage.This is particularly advantageous when the filling device is arranged above a front part of the storage space, in particular to make the filling device easily accessible to users, because this prevents waste does not accumulate in this front part allowing them to fall for example substantially in the center of this storage space. You can get better filling of storage space.

De manière comparative, le taux de remplissage d'un espace de stockage est meilleur pour une rotation du réceptacle d'angle important, notamment voisin de 240°, par rapport à une rotation d'angle plus faible, notamment voisin de 120°.In comparison, the filling rate of a storage space is better for a rotation of the receptacle of large angle, in particular close to 240 °, by compared to a lower angle rotation, in particular close to 120 °.

De plus, lorsque l'espace de stockage est constitué par une cuve présentant un rebord supérieur, on évite grâce à une rotation du réceptacle dans le sens précité que des déchets puissent être coincés entre le réceptacle et ce rebord supérieur.In addition, when the storage space is constituted by a tank having a upper rim, it is avoided by rotation of the receptacle in the aforementioned direction that waste can be trapped between the receptacle and this upper edge.

Le dispositif peut être agencé de sorte que la rotation du réceptacle soit possible seulement lorsque le capot est fermé.The device can be arranged so that the rotation of the receptacle is possible only when the cover is closed.

Toujours dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, le réceptacle effectue, pour passer de la deuxième position à la première position, une rotation dans le sens inverse de la rotation lui permettant de passer de la première position à la deuxième position.Still in an exemplary implementation of the invention, the receptacle to move from the second position to the first position, it rotates in the opposite direction of rotation allowing it to pass from the first position to the second position.

Le réceptacle peut comporter une paroi présentant une forme cylindrique ayant pour directrice par exemple un arc de cercle et le capot comporter une paroi présentant une forme cylindrique ayant pour directrice par exemple également un arc de cercle apte, en position de fermeture du capot, à former avec le réceptacle sensiblement un cylindre de révolution.The receptacle may have a wall having a cylindrical shape having for director for example an arc of a circle and the cover include a wall having a cylindrical shape having for example also a suitable arc of circle, in hood closing position, to form with the receptacle substantially a cylinder of revolution.

Ainsi, lorsque le capot est refermé, les déchets sont contenus dans un espace sensiblement dépourvu d'arêtes saillantes, ce qui permet d'éviter l'accrochage ou le coincement de déchets.So when the hood is closed, the waste is contained in a space substantially free of projecting edges, which prevents snagging or jamming of waste.

Dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, le capot est monté pivotant sur le bâti, son axe de pivotement pouvant être éloigné de l'axe de rotation du réceptacle.In an exemplary implementation of the invention, the cover is pivotally mounted on the frame, its pivot axis can be distant from the axis of rotation of the receptacle.

Le dispositif de remplissage comporte avantageusement un dispositif de verrouillage du capot.The filling device advantageously comprises a device for hood locking.

Lorsque le capot comporte un bord avant venant s'appliquer contre un rebord de l'accès en position de fermeture, le dispositif de verrouillage comporte avantageusement des éléments coopérants fixés sensiblement au milieu respectivement du bord avant du capot et du rebord de l'accès.When the cover has a front edge which comes to rest against a flange access in the closed position, the locking device advantageously comprises cooperating elements fixed substantially in the middle respectively of the front edge of the hood and access ledge.

Ainsi, on rend plus difficile une tentative d'ouverture frauduleuse du capot.Thus, it makes it more difficult to attempt a fraudulent opening of the cover.

Le dispositif de remplissage peut comporter un système de contrôle comprenant un dispositif d'identification muni notamment d'un lecteur de cartes, permettant de contrôler l'ouverture du capot après identification de l'utilisateur.The filling device may include a control system comprising an identification device provided in particular with a card reader, to control the opening of the hood after user identification.

Dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, le dispositif de remplissage est agencé pour permettre l'ouverture du capot seulement lorsque le réceptacle est dans sa première position, c'est-à-dire lorsque l'ouverture du réceptacle est en regard de l'accès du bâti.In an exemplary implementation of the invention, the filling device is arranged to allow the hood to be opened only when the receptacle is in its first position, that is to say when the opening of the receptacle is opposite the access of the frame.

Toujours dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, le dispositif de remplissage est agencé de sorte que le réceptacle reste dans sa deuxième position entre deux utilisations.Still in an exemplary implementation of the invention, the device for filling is arranged so that the receptacle remains in its second position between two uses.

Le dispositif de remplissage peut comporter un moteur, notamment pneumatique, hydraulique ou électrique, apte à entraíner le réceptacle en rotation.The filling device may include a motor, in particular pneumatic, hydraulic or electric, suitable for driving the receptacle in rotation.

Le dispositif de remplissage peut être agencé de sorte que les déchets introduits dans le réceptacle puissent tomber directement dans l'espace de stockage et notamment être dépourvu de trappe disposée sous le réceptacle.The filling device can be arranged so that the waste introduced in the receptacle can fall directly into the storage space and in particular be devoid of hatch located under the receptacle.

L'invention a encore pour objet un conteneur de collecte de déchets comportant une cuve formant un espace de stockage de déchets, notamment de déchets contenus dans des sacs, et un dispositif de remplissage tel que défini plus haut, permettant d'introduire des déchets dans l'espace de stockage.Another subject of the invention is a waste collection container comprising a tank forming a space for storing waste, in particular waste contained in bags, and a filling device as defined above, allowing introduce waste into the storage space.

Dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, l'espace de stockage est fermé par une paroi supérieure présentant un passage, le dispositif de remplissage étant fixé sur la paroi, sur ce passage, cette paroi pouvant être inclinée avec un bord inférieur situé à l'avant du dispositif de remplissage.In an exemplary implementation of the invention, the storage space is closed by an upper wall having a passage, the filling device being fixed on the wall, on this passage, this wall can be inclined with a lower edge located at the front of the filling device.

Le capot 20 est muni d'une poignée 21 permettant à un utilisateur de le faire pivoter vers le haut.The cover 20 is provided with a handle 21 allowing a user to do so pivot up.

Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 3 et 4, le bâti 16 est ouvert à sa base laissant le réceptacle 17 déborder partiellement dans le passage 10.As can be seen in Figures 3 and 4, the frame 16 is open at its base leaving the receptacle 17 partially overflowing in the passage 10.

Le réceptacle 17 comporte une paroi 22 cylindrique ayant pour directrice un arc de cercle, fermée à chacune de ses extrémités longitudinales, par un disque 23.The receptacle 17 comprises a cylindrical wall 22 having for its direction a arc of a circle, closed at each of its longitudinal ends, by a disc 23.

La paroi cylindrique 22 définit une ouverture 24 par laquelle un utilisateur peut introduire un sac de déchets S.The cylindrical wall 22 defines an opening 24 through which a user can introduce a bag of waste S.

Le réceptacle 17 est apte à être entraíné en rotation autour d'un axe horizontal X parallèle à l'axe Y, par exemple au moyen d'un moteur pneumatique non représenté, entre une première position dans laquelle l'ouverture 24 du réceptacle 17 est en regard de l'accès 19 du bâti 16, comme illustré sur les figures 2 et 3, et une deuxième position dans laquelle l'ouverture 24 du réceptacle 17 est sensiblement dirigée vers la cuve 2, comme illustré sur la figure 4.The receptacle 17 is adapted to be rotated about a horizontal axis X parallel to the Y axis, for example by means of a pneumatic motor not shown, between a first position in which the opening 24 of the receptacle 17 is opposite access 19 of frame 16, as illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, and a second position in which the opening 24 of the receptacle 17 is substantially directed towards the tank 2, as illustrated in figure 4.

L'accès 19 est délimité par un retour inférieur 25, des retours latéraux 26 et un retour supérieur 27 du bâti 16.Access 19 is delimited by a lower return 25, lateral returns 26 and a upper return 27 of the frame 16.

Dans la première position, comme on peut le voir sur la figure 2, les retours 25, 26 et 27 bordent l'ouverture 24 du réceptacle 17 avec un faible jeu.In the first position, as can be seen in FIG. 2, the returns 25, 26 and 27 border the opening 24 of the receptacle 17 with little play.

Le capot 20 comporte une paroi extérieure 30 présentant une forme qui, en position de fermeture, épouse sensiblement la forme extérieure du bâti 16.The cover 20 has an outer wall 30 having a shape which, in closed position, substantially conforms to the external shape of the frame 16.

Le capot 20 comporte en outre une paroi intérieure 31 reliée à la paroi extérieure 30 par une pluralité de nervures 32.The cover 20 further comprises an inner wall 31 connected to the wall exterior 30 by a plurality of ribs 32.

La paroi intérieure 31 présente une forme cylindrique ayant pour directrice un arc de cercle sensiblement complémentaire de la directrice du cylindre définissant le réceptacle 17, de sorte qu'en position de fermeture du capot 20, la paroi intérieure 31 forme avec la paroi cylindrique 22 sensiblement un cylindre de révolution. The inner wall 31 has a cylindrical shape having as its director a arc of a circle substantially complementary to the director of the cylinder defining the receptacle 17, so that in the closed position of the cover 20, the inner wall 31 forms with the cylindrical wall 22 substantially a cylinder of revolution.

Le capot 20 peut être verrouillé en position de fermeture grâce à un dispositif de verrouillage 36 comportant des éléments coopérants 37 et 38 fixés respectivement sur le retour inférieur 25 du bâti 16 et sur un bord avant 39 du capot 20, en leur milieu.The cover 20 can be locked in the closed position using a device lock 36 comprising cooperating elements 37 and 38 fixed respectively on the lower return 25 of the frame 16 and on a front edge 39 of the cover 20, in the middle.

Le bâti 16 est pourvu d'un vérin 35 permettant d'assister l'ouverture et la fermeture du capot 20.The frame 16 is provided with a jack 35 making it possible to assist the opening and the closing the cover 20.

Le bâti 16 est muni d'un lecteur de cartes 40 permettant de lire une carte en possession de l'utilisateur et d'identifier ce dernier avant de permettre l'ouverture du capot 20.The frame 16 is provided with a card reader 40 making it possible to read a card in possession of the user and identify the user before allowing the opening of the cover 20.

Le lecteur de cartes 40 peut être agencé pour lire des cartes à puce ou des cartes magnétiques par exemple.The card reader 40 can be arranged to read smart cards or cards magnetic for example.

Le lecteur de cartes 40 peut être relié à un système de contrôle, non représenté, permettant de contrôler l'ouverture du dispositif de verrouillage 36 en fonction des données lues sur la carte.The card reader 40 can be connected to a control system, not shown, for controlling the opening of the locking device 36 according to the data read from the card.

Le dispositif de distribution 15 peut être équipé d'un capteur permettant, à la fermeture du capot 20, de déclencher de manière automatique la rotation du réceptacle 17 afin de l'entraíner de la première à la deuxième position.The dispensing device 15 can be equipped with a sensor allowing, at the closing the cover 20, automatically triggering the rotation of the receptacle 17 to train him from the first to the second position.

Le dispositif de remplissage 15 fonctionne de la manière suivante.The filling device 15 operates in the following manner.

Le réceptacle 17 est initialement dans la deuxième position illustrée à la figure 4.The receptacle 17 is initially in the second position illustrated in the figure 4.

Une fois la lecture de la carte insérée dans le lecteur 40 effectuée, le réceptacle 17 est entraíné en rotation suivant la flèche F', afin d'amener l'ouverture 24 du réceptacle 17 en regard de l'accès 19, comme illustré sur la figure 3.Once the card inserted in the reader 40 has been read, the receptacle 17 is rotated along the arrow F ', to bring the opening 24 of the receptacle 17 opposite the access 19, as illustrated in FIG. 3.

Ensuite seulement le dispositif de verrouillage 36 est déverrouillé permettant à l'utilisateur d'ouvrir le capot 20 afin d'introduire un sac de déchets S dans le réceptacle 17.Then only the locking device 36 is unlocked allowing the user opens the cover 20 in order to introduce a waste bag S into the receptacle 17.

Puis l'utilisateur referme le capot 20.Then the user closes the cover 20.

Le réceptacle 17 est alors entraíné en rotation suivant la flèche F de sens inverse à la flèche F', de sorte que l'ouverture 24 passe par une position dans laquelle elle est dirigée vers le haut.The receptacle 17 is then rotated in the direction of the arrow F opposite to arrow F ', so that the opening 24 passes through a position in which it is directed upwards.

La rotation du réceptacle 17 s'effectue jusqu'à ce que l'ouverture 24 parvienne au-dessus de la cuve 2 permettant au sac de déchets S de tomber dans celle-ci par gravité, comme illustré sur la figure 4. The receptacle 17 is rotated until the opening 24 reaches above the tank 2 allowing the bag of waste S to fall into it by gravity, as illustrated in figure 4.

Pour passer de la première position illustrée à la figure 3 à la deuxième position illustrée à la figure 4, le réceptacle 17 effectue une rotation d'environ 240°.To go from the first position illustrated in Figure 3 to the second position illustrated in Figure 4, the receptacle 17 rotates approximately 240 °.

Le réceptacle 17 reste dans la deuxième position jusqu'à la prochaine utilisation.The receptacle 17 remains in the second position until the next use.

Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 3 et 4, le fait que le réceptacle 17 tourne dans le sens de la flèche F pour décharger le sac S dans la cuve 2 permet au sac S de tomber sensiblement au centre de la cuve 2, ce qui assure un remplissage satisfaisant de celle-ci.As can be seen in Figures 3 and 4, the fact that the receptacle 17 rotates in the direction of arrow F to discharge the bag S into the tank 2 allows the bag S to fall substantially in the center of the tank 2, which ensures satisfactory filling of it.

Une rotation dans ce sens permet également d'éviter un éventuel coincement du sac S qui peut déborder du réceptacle 17, entre celui-ci et le rebord supérieur avant 7.A rotation in this direction also avoids possible jamming of the bag S which may extend beyond the receptacle 17, between the latter and the upper front edge 7.

Une rotation de la deuxième position à la première position dans le sens de la flèche F' permet d'éviter un coincement d'un sac contenu dans la cuve 2 entre le réceptacle 17 et le rebord avant 7, lorsque la cuve 2 est presque entièrement remplie, ce qui peut se produire dans le cas d'une rotation inverse.A rotation from the second position to the first position in the direction of the arrow F 'makes it possible to avoid jamming of a bag contained in the tank 2 between the receptacle 17 and the front edge 7, when the tank 2 is almost completely filled, which can be occur in the case of a reverse rotation.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée à l'exemple de mise en oeuvre qui vient d'être décrit.Of course, the invention is not limited to the example of implementation which has just been described.

Le dispositif de remplissage 15 peut être adapté à tout autre type de conteneur de collecte de déchets, par exemple un bac roulant de grand volume auquel cas le dispositif de remplissage peut être fixé directement sur le couvercle du bac, une colonne de tri sélectif ou un conteneur semi-enterré de type CITYSPOT.The filling device 15 can be adapted to any other type of container waste collection, for example a large rolling bin in which case the device filling can be fixed directly on the tank cover, a sorting column selective or a semi-buried CITYSPOT container.
