  • waste polluting the streets of cities and towns Villages cause the inhabitants a certain inconvenience, a problem insoluble.
  • This waste, and more particularly the excrement of origin animal, canine or other have become a real plague and a nuisance that has become intolerable for people, especially cities, or the number of animals per inhabitant has greatly increased years.
  • the present invention thus aims to remedy previously mentioned disadvantages through a manual device simple, reliable, easy to implement and inexpensive.
  • the device for removing waste such as excrement of animals consists of a gripping member such that a clamp carried by a handle consisting of at least one tube, and is characterized in that the gripper, which comprises a bag, is movable between two positions: a retracted position, according to which it is disposed inside the tube, and an extended position according to which it protrudes outside the tube.
  • the handle is constituted at least two telescopic tubes, sliding relative to each other.
  • the handle consists of an outer tube in which slides an inner tube, while the outer tube movable in longitudinally sliding relative to the inner tube, constitutes the actuation of the gripper by causing, by its longitudinal displacement relative to the inner tube, retraction and deployment of the mobile clamp.
  • the gripper is composed of two sets: a first set, or set of spacing and approximation, consisting of two branches of separation and brought together at their upper end by a hinge constituted by a transverse axis, and a second set, or set of gripping, consisting of two bag-holder arms, articulated on the lower ends of each of the branches or spread, around of a pivot axis, respectively.
  • means of elastic reminders solicit the bag-carrying arms from their retracted position, towards their deployed position, while means of elastic recalls are provided for spacing apart the two spacing arms and reconciliation.
  • the mobile gripper carries a bag in flexible material for gripping and conditioning waste, while said bag comprises an opening lined with two side slits in which both arms are engaged bag-holder.
  • Figure 1 shows the user with the device in position retracted.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective representation of the device in an intermediate position of deployment, a position which also corresponds at the intermediate position of folding
  • FIG. 3 is a perspective representation of the device in deployed position, ready to use.
  • FIG. 4 is a partial perspective view of the device applied on the floor, its pouch covering the excrement.
  • FIG. 5 is a partial perspective view of the device applied on the ground in an intermediate position, folding its end, with its bag enclosing the excrement.
  • Figures 6a, 6b and 6c show the different steps of deployment of the device.
  • FIG. 7 is a detailed view of the clamp of the invention, forming the end of the device, in the deployed position, without the bag.
  • FIG. 8 is a detailed view showing the end of one of the Spacer branches.
  • the waste removal device carrying the general reference (1) consists of a handle, such as a cane (2), carrying gripping means (3), advantageously constituted by a mobile gripper carrying a bag (4), and intended for allow gripping and conditioning of the waste (30).
  • the rod (2) carrying the movable clamp (3) which allows a good grip in hand, and which prevents the user from bending down, is telescopic.
  • it consists of at least two telescopic tubes (5, 6) sliding relative to each other, namely, an outer tube (5) in which slides an inner tube (6).
  • the outer tube (5), movable in longitudinally sliding relative to the inner tube constitutes the actuating the gripper (3) by causing its longitudinal displacement relative to the inner tube (6) the retraction and the deployment of the mobile clamp (3).
  • the mobile clamp (3) constituting the means of gripping is intended to receive an evacuation bag (4) which allows, as we will see in more detail later, the user to pick up the excrement of his animal (30) and to condition it to throw it immediately or later in a trash can, without having direct contact with said waste (30).
  • said discharge bag (4) advantageously constitutes means for isolating the gripper (3) from the waste (30).
  • said bag which is arranged on the clip, makes it possible to avoid any direct contact between the clamp (3) and the waste (30) during gripping of said waste. The user therefore always has at his disposal a device of its own and ready for a new use, even in the absence of cleaning.
  • the means of gripping consist of a gripper (3) formed by several elements (7a-7b, 8a-8b) movable and articulated with respect to each other, take two positions, namely, a retracted position (A) and a deployed position (C) through an intermediate position (B), the passage from the retracted position to the deployed position through the displacement of the outer tube (5) and by means of return means elastic.
  • the gripper (3) is composed of two sets (7, 8).
  • the first set (7) or set of spacing and approximation, consists of two branches of separation and brought together (7a, 7b) at their upper end (10a, 10b) by a hinge constituted by a transverse axis (9).
  • said hinge is provided with resilient return means (12) for soliciting in spacing the two branches of separation and approximation (7a, 7b).
  • Said return means are constituted advantageously by a metal blade (12) whose ends are engaged in the respective upper ends (10a, 10b) of spacing branches, while the central part surrounds the axis of pivoting.
  • the second set (8) or gripping assembly consists of two bag-carrying arms (8a, 8b) carried by the lower ends (13a, 13b) of the two spacing branches and approach (7a, 7b).
  • the two bag-holding arms (8a, 8b) are articulated on the ends lower (13a, 13b) of each of the branches or of spacing (7a, 7b), around a pivot axis, respectively (14a, 14b), allowing the said bag-holding arms (8a, 8b) to pivot, while means for resilient recalls (15a, 15b) urge the bag-carrying arms of their retracted position (A) towards their deployed position (B), said means being constituted by traction springs (15a, 15b), one of which ends is fixed on the corresponding spacing arm (7a, 7b), while the other end is attached to the bag-holder branch corresponding to a point (11a, 11b) disposed on said branch bag holder, between its pivot axis (14a, 14b) and its free end.
  • the bag (4) is made of flexible material, such as polyethylene, as this is the case for almost all garbage bags.
  • the bag (4) intended for to be used with the device of the invention, comprises an opening lined with two lateral sleeves (40a, 40b) in which are engaged the two bag-carrying arms (8a, 8b), as shown in FIG. 3, 4 and 5.
  • the user To place the bag (4) on the clamp, the user must introduce the bag-carrying arms (8a, 8b) in the corresponding sleeves (40a, 40b).
  • the parts of the bag-holder arms arranged at proximity of the spacing arms (7a, 7b) at the hinge (14a, 14b) each comprise an extra thickness (17a, 17b) for rigidify and consolidate the bag-holder assembly (8) and constitute an element abutment against the lower end of each spacing arm so to limit at an angle of about 90 ° between the spacer arm (7a, 7b) and the bag-holder arm (8a, 8b) in the deployed position of the clip.
  • Said oversizes (17a, 17b) also have the role of constituting a ramp to facilitate retraction of the bag-holder arms into the female tube during their retraction described later.
  • the rod formed by the two tubes (5, 6) constitutes the actuating member of the gripping device, as well as means to conceal the grasping forceps with its bag, and also forms a support rod, on which the user can rely when not using the removal device, as shown in Figure 1.
  • the cane is provided with a trigger (62) of the "umbrella or button" type located on the male tube, constituting a stop for the female tube which will be limited in its sliding.
  • the gripper (3) is articulated to the lower end of the inner tube (6), and around the same transverse axis (9) of relative pivoting of the two spacing branches (7a, 7b), while the upper end of said inner tube (6) may advantageously comprise, for example, a pommel (60) or the like to optimize the comfort of use or multiple accessories like the dog's leash, for example.
  • the lower end of the tube internal part (6) and its gripper (3) are housed inside the tube external (5) which is in the lower position relative to the inner tube.
  • the inner tube (6) protrudes above the outer tube (5).
  • the implementation of the device is by sliding of the outer tube (6) on the inner tube (5), upwards (F1), to deploy the clamp and, towards the bottom (F2), to retract it.
  • Figures 2 and 6b show the device in its position deployment intermediary (B); in this position, at the displacement of the outer tube according to F1, the two arms carrying the bag (8a, 8b) are released and pivot according to R1 under the tensile action of the springs (15a, 15b) to be in a perpendicular position relative to to the tubes (5, 6).
  • This movement also brings the rimpedement lateral arrangement according to D2a, D2b of the two bag-holding arms (8a, 8b), the bag is then partially closed with the excrement inside, and the user can then remove it from the bag holder arms to close it positively and throw it in a trash either immediately or later.
  • the user may not take the bag with his hands, positioning the clip with the bag over the trash and push on the outer tube so that its lower end pushes and flushing the bag (4) out of the bag-holding arms (8a, 8b) and dropping said bag with the excrement.
