Description

La présente invention se rapporte au domaine technique général de la récupération des déchets en tout genre et plus particulièrement à la récupération de déchets sur la voie publique.The present invention relates to the general technical field of waste recovery of all kinds and more particularly to the waste recovery on public roads.

La récupération des déchets présente souvent des problèmes difficiles à résoudre. En effet, un grand nombre de sites, notamment des sites touristiques, voient leur population augmenter de manière importante certaines parties de l'année, ce qui nécessite une adaptation des moyens de récupération des déchets. Cette récupération génère elle-même des nuisances sonores, des problèmes de circulation sur la voie publique, des problèmes de personnel et de coûts si une telle récupération s'opère à une fréquence élevée.Waste recovery often presents problems difficult to solve. Indeed, a large number of sites, including tourist sites, see their population increase so important parts of the year, which requires adaptation means of waste recovery. This recovery generates noise, traffic problems on the road, public road, staffing and cost issues if such recovery occurs at a high frequency.

La mise en place et la répartition sur un site de gros conteneurs destinés à récupérer les déchets, altère sensiblement l'esthétique du site, ce qui n'est pas recherché. Il est alors possible de disposer ces gros conteneurs sur des aires spécialement aménagées mais ces dernières ne sont pas toujours disponibles d'une part et lorsqu'elles sont disponibles elles n'incitent pas les usagers de la voie publique à les utiliser d'autre part.The establishment and distribution on a site of large containers intended to recover the waste, significantly alters the aesthetics of the site, which is not searched. It is then possible to arrange these large containers on specially equipped areas but these latter are not always available on the one hand and when they are are available they do not encourage users of the public road to use them on the other hand.

Il est connu également de réaliser un dispositif de récupération des déchets comportant :

  • un conteneur destiné à être enterré,
  • ledit conteneur présentant une paroi supérieure pourvue d'une ouverture de remplissage et d'une ouverture de vidange,
  • ladite ouverture de vidange étant obturée par une trappe d'accès,
  • et un tube de collecte centré sur l'ouverture de remplissage.
It is also known to produce a waste recovery device comprising:
  • a container to be buried,
  • said container having an upper wall provided with a filling opening and a drain opening,
  • said drain opening being closed by an access hatch,
  • and a collection tube centered on the filling opening.

De tels dispositifs sont répartis sur un site et sont susceptibles de recevoir une grande quantité de déchets sans pour autant augmenter les nuisances ou les inconvénients liés à la récupération des déchets accumulés dans le conteneur. La grande contenance des conteneurs, permet de diminuer substantiellement la fréquence des opérations de vidange.Such devices are distributed on a site and are likely to receive a large amount of waste without increasing the nuisance or disadvantages related to the recovery of waste accumulated in the container. The large capacity of the containers, makes it possible to substantially reduce the frequency of emptying operations.

Les investissements pour les opérations de vidange de tels conteneurs sont également réduits dans la mesure où l'opération de vidange se fait par aspiration et que les véhicules communaux destinés au nettoyage des voieries sont en général équipés d'un système d'aspiration susceptible d'être utilisé pour lesdites opérations de vidange.Investments for the emptying operations of such containers are also reduced to the extent that the emptying operation is by suction and that communal vehicles intended for the cleaning of highways are in equipped with a suction system capable of being used for the said emptying operations.

On obtient ainsi une gestion des déchets relativement efficace dans la mesure où elle résout en grande partie les problèmes et les inconvénients mentionnés ci-dessus.This gives a relatively efficient waste management in the to the extent that it largely solves the problems and disadvantages mentioned above.

De tels dispositifs de récupération de déchets présentent cependant un certain nombre d'inconvénients. En effet, ce dispositif doit être conçu pour être fonctionnel pendant une durée relativement longue et de l'ordre par exemple d'une dizaine d'années. Ceci s'explique par le fait que le conteneur est enterré et recouvert par un revêtement urbain qu'il convient de détruire localement lorsqu'une intervention est nécessaire sur ledit dispositif.Such waste recovery devices, however, have a number of disadvantages. Indeed, this device must be designed to be functional for a relatively long duration and order for example ten years. This is explained by the fact that the container is buried and covered by an urban cladding that should be destroyed locally when intervention is necessary on said device.

En outre, le tube de collecte est accessible et peut également être heurté par un véhicule ou tout simplement être sujet au vandalisme. Son remplacement nécessite alors une intervention au cours de laquelle le revêtement de sol doit être détruit dans la mesure où le tube de collecte est fixé sur le conteneur.In addition, the collection tube is accessible and can also be struck by a vehicle or just be subject to vandalism. His replacement then requires an intervention during which the flooring needs to be destroyed as long as the collection tube is attached to the container.

Il faut également prévoir sur une période aussi longue des embellissements ou des modifications dans l'esthétique du site équipé de dispositifs de récupération de déchets. Là encore le remplacement des tubes de collecte par des tubes neufs suppose l'intervention sous le revêtement et génère par conséquent des coûts élevés.It is also necessary to provide for such a long period of embellishments or changes in the aesthetics of the site equipped with waste recovery. Here again the replacement of the collection tubes by new tubes assumes the intervention under the coating and generates by therefore high costs.

Sur certains sites touristiques où la population décroít sensiblement sur une partie de l'année les dispositifs de récupération de déchets ne sont quasiment plus utilisés et les opérations de vidange du conteneur peuvent être suspendues. La suppression à certains endroits de poubelles comme on le connaít actuellement ne peut manifestement pas s'appliquer à un tel dispositif de récupération de déchets et la suspension périodique des opérations de vidange peut générer des problèmes d'hygiène qu'il convient d'éviter.On certain tourist sites where the population decreases noticeably on a part of the year the waste recovery devices are almost no longer used and the emptying operations of the container may be suspended. The removal in some places of garbage cans as currently known do not obviously can not be applied to such a waste recovery device and the periodic suspension of emptying operations can generate hygiene problems that should be avoided.

Le but de la présente vise à s'affranchir des inconvénients cités ci-dessus et de permettre des opérations de maintenance sur les dispositifs de récupération des déchets ne nécessitant pas une destruction du sol ou d'un revêtement.The purpose of the present is to overcome the disadvantages mentioned above and to allow maintenance operations on recovery devices waste that does not require destruction of the soil or coating.

Un autre but de la présente invention vise à neutraliser le dispositif de récupération de déchets pendant des périodes déterminées plus ou moins longues.Another object of the present invention is to neutralize the device of waste recovery for defined periods more or less long.

Selon l'invention, le tube de collecte est fixé de façon amovible par l'intermédiaire de moyens de fixation sur une pièce tubulaire rapportée et centrée sur l'ouverture de remplissage. Il est ainsi possible à n'importe quel moment de remplacer le tube de collecte sans intervention sur les éléments enterrés du dispositif de récupération de déchets. En outre, le dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention est adapté à tout tube de collecte moyennant une adaptation sur son interface de liaison avec la pièce tubulaire. Le gestionnaire des dispositifs de récupération des déchets peut donc à tout moment remplacer le tube de collecte et ce suite à une détérioration ou à une décision d'aménagement esthétique du site.According to the invention, the collection tube is removably attached by via fastening means on a reported and centered tubular piece on the filling opening. It is thus possible at any time to replace the collection tube without intervention on the buried elements of the waste recovery device. In addition, the recovery device of according to the invention is suitable for any collection tube by means of a adaptation on its connection interface with the tubular part. The manager of waste recovery devices can therefore at any time replace the collection tube and this following a deterioration or a decision of development aesthetic of the site.

Selon un exemple de réalisation du dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention,les moyens de fixation présentent une fragilisation favorisant leur rupture en cas de choc. Cette fragilisation permet ainsi d'éviter toute détérioration de la pièce tubulaire et du conteneur enterré et par conséquent toute intervention sous le revêtement du sol.According to an exemplary embodiment of the waste recovery device according to the invention, the fastening means have embrittlement promoting their break in case of shock. This weakening thus makes it possible to avoid any deterioration of the tubular part and the buried container and consequently any intervention under the floor covering.

Selon un exemple de réalisation, la pièce tubulaire est fixée de façon amovible par l'intermédiaire de moyens de fixation additionnels sur la paroi supérieure du conteneur. Il est ainsi possible de choisir la hauteur de la pièce tubulaire en fonction de l'épaisseur du revêtement du sol du site d'implantation des dispositifs de récupération de déchets et/ou de la profondeur d'implantation du conteneur dans le sol. On peut ainsi tenir compte de différentes contraintes rencontrées lors de la mise en place de tels dispositifs de récupération de déchets.According to an exemplary embodiment, the tubular piece is fixed so removable by means of additional fastening means on the wall top of the container. It is thus possible to choose the height of the room tubular according to the thickness of the floor covering of the site of implantation of waste recovery devices and / or the depth of implantation of the container in the ground. We can thus take into account different constraints encountered during the implementation of such waste recovery devices.

Avantageusement la pièce tubulaire présente une collerette basse venant en appui sur la paroi supérieure et une collerette haute sur laquelle s'appuie le tube de collecte ou un couvercle remplaçant ledit tube de collecte. Ainsi lorsque l'on souhaite neutraliser le dispositif de récupération de déchets, par exemple pendant une période donnée de l'année, il suffit de démonter le tube de collecte et de le remplacer par un couvercle, ce dernier ne dépassant pas de la surface du revêtement du sol.Advantageously, the tubular piece has a low collar resting on the upper wall and a high flange on which the tube rests collector or a cover replacing said collection tube. So when we wants to neutralize the waste recovery device, for example during a given period of the year, simply dismount the collection tube and the replace with a cover, the latter not exceeding the surface of the flooring.

Lorsque l'utilisation de tels dispositifs de récupération de déchets n'est pas souhaitée pour des raisons de moindre affluence touristique ou tout simplement pour des raisons de sécurité, il suffit de remplacer le tube de collecte par un couvercle.When the use of such waste recovery devices is not desired for reasons of less tourist affluence or simply for safety reasons, simply replace the collection tube with a lid.

Selon un exemple de réalisation, le tube de collecte présente à son extrémité basse une collerette complémentaire identique à la collerette haute de la pièce tubulaire.According to an exemplary embodiment, the collection tube presents to its low end a complementary collar identical to the high collar of the tubular part.

Selon un exemple de réalisation du dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention, les moyens de fixation sont réalisés par des perçages effectués dans la collerette haute et dans la collerette complémentaire, et par des vis traversant les perçages et s'engageant dans des écrous correspondants soudés sous la collerette haute en regard desdits perçages. Avantageusement une fragilisation est prévue sur chaque vis.According to an exemplary embodiment of the waste recovery device according to the invention, the fixing means are made by holes carried out in the upper flange and in the complementary collar, and by screws through the holes and engaging in corresponding nuts welded under the upper flange opposite said holes. advantageously weakening is provided on each screw.

Selon un exemple de réalisation, la trappe d'accès est articulée sur un caisson fixé de façon amovible sur la paroi supérieure et recouvrant l'ouverture des vidanges. Le caisson et la pièce tubulaire présentent par exemple la même hauteur. Le conteneur peut ainsi être associé à des caissons et à des pièces tubulaires de hauteur déterminée pour s'adapter à des profondeurs d'enterrement ou à des épaisseurs particulières du revêtement du sol.According to an exemplary embodiment, the access hatch is articulated on a box fixed removably on the upper wall and covering the opening of the changes. The box and the tubular piece have for example the same height. The container can thus be associated with boxes and parts tubular height determined to fit burial depths or at particular thicknesses of the floor covering.

Selon un exemple de réalisation du dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention des moyens de fixation additionnels comprennent des perçages ménagés dans la collerette basse et dans la paroi supérieure autour de l'ouverture de remplissage et des vis traversant lesdits perçages et s'engageant dans les écrous correspondants, soudés sous la face interne de la paroi supérieure en regard desdits perçages.According to an exemplary embodiment of the waste recovery device according to the invention additional fastening means comprise holes in the lower flange and in the upper wall around the filling aperture and screws passing through said holes and engaging in the corresponding nuts, welded under the inner face of the upper wall opposite said holes.

Avantageusement le dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention comprend au moins un habillage amovible destiné à être monté sur le tube de collecte. On peut ainsi modifier l'esthétique de la partie apparente du dispositif de récupération des déchets sans intervention sur le conteneur, sur la pièce tubulaire ou sur le tube de collecte. L'esthétique est donc indépendante des parties fonctionnelles du dispositif de récupération des déchets.Advantageously the waste recovery device according to the invention comprises at least one removable covering intended to be mounted on the collection tube. We can thus modify the aesthetics of the apparent part of the waste recovery device without intervention on the container, on the tubular piece or on the collection tube. The aesthetics is therefore independent of functional parts of the waste recovery device.

Le dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention représenté aux figures et notamment à la figure 1 comporte un conteneur 1 destiné à être enterré. Le conteneur 1 présente une paroi supérieure 2 pourvue d'une ouverture de remplissage 3 et d'une ouverture de vidange 4. Cette dernière est obturée par une trappe d'accès 5 laquelle peut le cas échéant être verrouillée à l'aide d'une clé.The waste recovery device according to the invention shown in the figures and in particular in Figure 1 comprises a container 1 intended to be buried. The container 1 has an upper wall 2 provided with an opening 3 and a drain opening 4. The latter is closed by an access hatch 5 which can if necessary be locked with a key.

Le dispositif de récupération de déchets comporte également un tube de collecte 6 centré sur l'ouverture de remplissage 3. Le tube de collecte 6 présente une ouverture haute 7 à travers laquelle les déchets sont acheminés vers le conteneur 1.The waste recovery device also comprises a tube of collection 6 centered on the filling opening 3. The collection tube 6 presents an upper opening 7 through which the waste is conveyed to the container 1.

Le tube de collecte 6 est fixé de façon amovible par l'intermédiaire de moyens de fixation sur une pièce tubulaire 8 rapportée et centrée sur l'ouverture de remplissage 3. La pièce tubulaire 8 est fixée de façon amovible par l'intermédiaire de moyens de fixation additionnels sur la paroi supérieure 2 du conteneur 1.The collection tube 6 is removably attached via fastening means on a tubular piece 8 attached and centered on the opening 3. The tubular piece 8 is removably attached by by means of additional fastening means on the upper wall 2 of the container 1.

Selon une variante de réalisation du dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention, la pièce tubulaire 8 peut également être fixée de façon définitive sur la paroi supérieure 2, et ce par l'intermédiaire de points de soudure.According to an alternative embodiment of the waste recovery device according to the invention, the tubular part 8 can also be fixed so as to definitive on the upper wall 2, and this through welding points.

La pièce tubulaire 8 présente une collerette basse 9 venant en appui sur la paroi supérieure 2 et une collerette haute 10 sur laquelle s'appuie le tube de collecte 6 ou un couvercle 11 remplaçant ledit tube de collecte 6. Le tube de collecte 6 présente à cet effet, à son extrémité basse, une collerette complémentaire 12 identique à la collerette haute 10 de la pièce tubulaire 8. La fixation du couvercle 11 sur la pièce tubulaire 8 se fait de la même façon que la fixation du tube de collecte 6 sur ladite pièce tubulaire 8. Les moyens de fixation sont réalisés par des perçages 13 effectués dans la collerette haute et dans la collerette complémentaire 12 et des vis 14 traversant les perçages 13 et s'engageant dans des écrous 15 correspondants. Ces derniers sont soudés sous la collerette haute 10 en regard desdits perçages 13. Le couvercle 11 est également pourvu de perçages 13 coopérant avec les vis 14.The tubular piece 8 has a low flange 9 resting on the upper wall 2 and a top flange 10 on which the tube of collecting 6 or a lid 11 replacing said collection tube 6. The tube collection 6 has for this purpose, at its lower end, a collar complementary 12 identical to the upper flange 10 of the tubular part 8. The fixing the lid 11 on the tubular part 8 is done in the same way as the fixing the collection tube 6 to said tubular piece 8. The fixing means are made by holes 13 made in the upper flange and in the complementary flange 12 and screws 14 passing through the holes 13 and engaging in corresponding nuts. These are welded under the upper collar 10 facing said holes 13. The cover 11 is also provided with holes 13 cooperating with the screws 14.

Les moyens de fixation présentent avantageusement une fragilisation favorisant leur rupture en cas de choc. La fragilisation est par exemple prévue sur chaque vis 14 utilisée à l'interface de la collerette haute 10 et de la collerette complémentaire 12:The fastening means advantageously have embrittlement promoting their rupture in case of shock. For example, fragilization is each screw 14 used at the interface of the upper flange 10 and the collar supplementary 12:

Les vis 14 utilisées à l'interface de la collerette basse 9 et la paroi supérieure 2 sont dépourvues d'une telle fragilisation de manière à ne pas altérer la liaison mécanique intime entre la pièce tubulaire 8 et le conteneur 1 lors d'un choc exercé sur le tube de collecte 6.The screws 14 used at the interface of the low collar 9 and the upper wall 2 are devoid of such embrittlement so as not to alter the connection intimate mechanics between the tubular piece 8 and the container 1 during a shock exerted on the collection tube 6.

Selon un exemple de réalisation conforme à l'invention, la trappe d'accès 5 est articulée sur un caisson 16 fixé de façon amovible sur la paroi supérieure 2 et recouvrant l'ouverture de vidange 4.According to an exemplary embodiment according to the invention, the access hatch 5 is articulated on a box 16 removably attached to the upper wall 2 and covering the drain opening 4.

Selon une variante de réalisation du dispositif de récupération de déchets conforme à l'invention, le caisson 16 peut également être fixé de façon définitive par exemple par des points de soudure sur la paroi supérieure 2.According to an alternative embodiment of the waste recovery device according to the invention, the casing 16 can also be fixed permanently for example by welding points on the upper wall 2.

Le caisson 16 et la pièce tubulaire 8 présentent de préférence la même hauteur permettant ainsi de s'adapter à des profondeurs d'enterrement variables du conteneur 1 et/ou à des épaisseurs différentes du revêtement du sol. En fonction de telles contraintes on peut donc choisir des hauteurs différentes de la pièce tubulaire 8 et du caisson 16, lesquels sont rapportés soit de façon définitive, soit de façon amovible sur le conteneur 1. La surface supérieure du revêtement de sol se situe de préférence au même niveau que la collerette 10 et la trappe d'accès 5.The casing 16 and the tubular part 8 preferably have the same height allowing to adapt to variable burial depths container 1 and / or at different thicknesses of the floor covering. In function of such constraints one can therefore choose different heights of the tubular part 8 and the box 16, which are reported either permanently, either removably on the container 1. The upper surface of the coating of soil is preferably at the same level as the flange 10 and the hatch access 5.

La pièce tubulaire 8 est fixe sur la paroi supérieure 2 grâce à des moyens de fixation additionnels.The tubular piece 8 is fixed on the upper wall 2 by means of additional fixation.

Selon un exemple de réalisation, les moyens de fixation additionnels comprennent des perçages 13a ménagés dans la collerette basse 9 et dans la paroi supérieure 2 autour de l'ouverture de remplissage 3 et des vis 14a traversant lesdites perçages 13a et s'engageant dans des écrous, non représentés, soudés sous la face interne de la paroi supérieure 2 en regard desdits perçages 13a. La fixation du caisson 16 peut être effectuée de la même façon. Les vis 14a peuvent avantageusement être associées à des rondelles 14b.According to an exemplary embodiment, the additional fixing means comprise holes 13a formed in the low collar 9 and in the upper wall 2 around the filling opening 3 and screws 14a through said holes 13a and engaging in nuts, no shown, welded under the inner face of the upper wall 2 facing said holes 13a. The fixing of the casing 16 can be performed of the same way. The screws 14a can advantageously be associated with washers 14b.

Le dispositif de récupération de déchets comprend par exemple au moins un habillage 17 amovible destiné à être monté sur le tube de collecte 6. Il est ainsi possible de choisir convenablement l'esthétique des parties apparentes du dispositif de récupération de déchets. Le tube de collecte 6 peut à cet effet être pourvu d'une collerette additionnelle 18 sur laquelle est fixé l'habillage 17 par l'intermédiaire d'organes de fixation du type vis 19, rondelles 20 et écrous 21.The waste recovery device comprises for example at least a removable cover 17 intended to be mounted on the collection tube 6. It is thus possible to choose the aesthetics of the visible parts of the waste recovery device. The collection tube 6 can for this purpose be provided with an additional flange 18 on which is fixed the covering 17 by via fasteners of the screw type 19, washers 20 and nuts 21.

Selon un autre exemple de réalisation du dispositif de récupération des déchets conforme à l'invention, l'habillage 17 est vissé directement sur la collerette haute 10. La collerette complémentaire 12 est alors enserrée entre la collerette haute 10 et la collerette additionnelle 18 réalisée par l'extrémité basse de l'habillage 17.According to another exemplary embodiment of the device for recovering according to the invention, the covering 17 is screwed directly onto the collar 10. The complementary collar 12 is then clamped between the collar high 10 and the additional collar 18 made by the lower end of dressing 17.

On pourra se reporter à la figure 5 ou 6 montrant l'habillage 17 avant son engagement complet sur le tube de collecte 6.We can refer to Figure 5 or 6 showing the dressing 17 before its full engagement on the collection tube 6.

L'habillage 17 peut également être pourvu en partie haute d'un couvercle non représenté aux figures.The covering 17 may also be provided at the top of a lid not shown in the figures.
