Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for the examination of garbage collected in a garbage container for metal components, in which the garbage container is scanned before emptying and pickup by a refuse collection vehicle by means of at least one metal probe, according to the preambles of claims 1 and 15.
  • garbage container contents are automatically checked by means of metal probes immediately before emptying into a garbage truck for foreign and foreign matter, for example in the case of biowaste and waste paper.
  • the known metal probes are usually arranged in the region of a lifting device of the refuse collection vehicle.
  • the metal probes used hitherto are not suitable for each lifting device in terms of size and / or weight.
  • the object of the present invention is to develop a method and a device which make it possible, when using a small metal probe, to examine the container contents of a refuse container effectively for metal components.
  • this object is achieved by a method of type, wherein the refuse container is already scanned during the recording by a lifting device of the refuse collection vehicle to the complete hanging of the refuse container to a container receptacle
  • a shortening of the metal probe would normally mean that the container contents to be tested would make up only a fraction of the test volume since then. Of course, such a reduction of the test volume is not desired by municipalities and composting companies.
  • a similar test volume can be checked as before. It can be provided that the metal probe moves continuously from bottom to top along the container and at several times a measurement is performed. Alternatively it can be provided that the probe is moved stepwise from bottom to top along the container and a measurement is performed in the intervals between the steps. It may therefore be provided in particular to carry out several time-discrete measurements for each refuse container.
  • the scanning is carried out until the trash container has been fully suspended from a container receptacle. As a result, the greatest possible test duration is achieved and a large container volume can be checked. In this case, the metal probe is moved together with the container receptacle for scanning along the refuse container. A separate operation for the scanning of the refuse container can thus be omitted.
  • a compensation ie an automatic zero-point correction of the metal probes must take place. This prevents incorrect measured values due to temperature drift or vibrations.
  • the compensation can preferably be triggered when lowering the container receptacle by a mechanical, electronic or optical sensor.
  • the complete suspension of the container in particular mechanically, electronically or optically detected and terminated the scan with fully hinged container.
  • the complete suspension of the container in particular mechanically, electronically or optically detected and terminated the scan with fully hinged container.
  • a simple evaluation of the measured values can take place if the measured values recorded by the metal probe, in particular in tabular form, are stored.
  • the measured values are sorted by time and there is a time-dependent evaluation of the measured values.
  • an optimal measurement time must be found. This means that disturbing influences (eg manhole cover or metal axle of the refuse container) have to be recognized early. These interferences must be filtered out.
  • the measurement period must not be too short in order to be able to check the largest possible part of the container. Since there are different speed lifting devices in garbage collection vehicles (both at the rear and on the side or the front) first several measurements per container recording, especially in a table of a computer of a detection system on the garbage truck, stored. These measured values are evaluated after completion of the measurement.
  • the optimum number of measured values to be used depends on the speed of the lifting device. Therefore, advantageously, the number of measured values taken into account for the evaluation, as a function of the movement speed of the lifting device, is set.
  • the number can be z. B. externally, supported by computer technology, can be influenced. Alternatively or additionally, it can be provided that the pauses between the individual measurements can be set and thereby the resolution of the sampling can be influenced.
  • metal probe In order to suppress disturbances of the metal probe by electromagnetic fields of other systems on the vehicle, as well as interference from unwanted eddy currents in the metal parts of the vehicle, on the other hand not disturb foreign systems on the vehicle as possible and to focus the field of view only on the container, the actual metal probe by a enclosed massive aluminum tub.
  • the only free opening points to the container and is formed by a non-metallic lid.
  • windings coil
  • metal probe means both a transmitting / receiving coil arrangement and an arrangement consisting of shielding, coils arranged therein, associated circuit and non-metallic lid.
  • an identification system for container identification and, where appropriate, a container weighing system are used on the refuse collection vehicle
  • the use of a metal probe can lead to disruptions in the simultaneous use of an identification and optionally weighing system, in particular in the case of a low-frequency electronic identification and possibly weighing system. These are created by the measuring field of the metal probe.
  • the measuring field can make the identification and optionally the weighing difficult or even impossible.
  • the switching off and on of the measuring field can be effected as a function of a sensor signal.
  • the sensor signal for switching off may be the same sensor signal, which signals the complete hanging of the refuse container and thus the end of a series of measurements.
  • the scope of the invention also includes a refuse collection vehicle with a device for inspecting garbage collected in garbage containers for metal components, comprising at least one metal probe, wherein the metal probe travels at least in a section along a garbage container to be emptied, in particular continuously or stepwise, from below upwards is movably arranged.
  • a refuse collection vehicle with a device for inspecting garbage collected in garbage containers for metal components, comprising at least one metal probe, wherein the metal probe travels at least in a section along a garbage container to be emptied, in particular continuously or stepwise, from below upwards is movably arranged.
  • the metal probe is arranged in or on a container receptacle.
  • the container receptacle is moved along the refuse container anyway, if this is to be absorbed by the container receptacle. This already performed hub -... can be exploited to simultaneously perform a metal detection.
  • a sensor in particular a mechanical, electronic or optical sensor, be provided for detecting the complete hanging of the refuse container to the container receptacle.
  • a signal can be emitted, which stops the measurement and shuts off the metal probe. Subsequently, an evaluation of the measured values and an identification of the refuse container can take place.
  • An evaluation of the measured values can take place if a computing unit in contact with the metal probe is provided with allocated memory for storing the measured values of the metal probe.
  • the arithmetic unit has a sorting device for sorting the measured values and the arithmetic unit comprises an evaluation device.
  • An identification of the refuse containers can take place if a reading device is provided for detecting a coding of the refuse container.
  • the reading device can be designed, for example, as a bar code reader or as a reading device for an electronic active or passive transponder.
  • a refuse collection vehicle 1 which has an opening 2 through which the contents of refuse containers can be emptied into the interior of the refuse collection vehicle 1.
  • the refuse collection vehicle 1 has lifting devices 3, 4, on which container receptacles 5, 6 for receiving in Fig. 1 Not shown garbage containers are arranged.
  • the container receptacles 5, 6 carry out a movement in the direction of the arrow 7, that is, upwards.
  • metal probes 8, 9 are moved from bottom to top.
  • the metal probes 8, 9 have approximately the width of a refuse container. This will ensure that scanning across the entire width of the bin can be done.
  • the container receptacles 5, 6 are formed as a receiving comb.
  • container receptacle forms are conceivable, for example a triangular shape.
  • the previously common triangular shape is divided into two parts, the lower, non-positive to the lifting device 3, 4 Part through which metal probe is formed.
  • the triangular shape placed on the metal probe can be designed universally so that instead of the metal probe, a load cell or holder can also be used.
  • the metal probe 8 is significantly shorter than the height of the refuse container 10.
  • the container receptacle 5 is moved in the direction of arrow 7 until the container receptacle 5 under the edge 11th the refuse container 10 passes.
  • the metal probe 8 is moved along the refuse container 10.
  • metal detection can take place by measuring at several points in time.
  • the metal probe 8 is connected to a computing unit 20.
  • the measured values of the metal probe 8 are forwarded via the arithmetic unit 20 to a memory 21, where the measured values are stored.
  • the measured values stored in the memory device 21 can be sorted, in particular temporally sorted, by a sorting device 22 before or after the storage.
  • a sensor 23 As soon as the container receptacle 5 has completely received the refuse container 10, that is, the container receptacle 5 has come into engagement with the edge 11, this is detected by a sensor 23.
  • the sensor 23 may be formed, for example, as an electrical or mechanical sensor.
  • An evaluation device 24 can then perform an evaluation of the measured values stored in the memory device 21 in the arithmetic unit 20.
  • the metal probe 8 in particular their electromagnetic field, are turned off.
  • a reading device 25 e.g. an external PC system
  • a sensor 27 detects the lowering of the lifting device and outputs a signal that triggers a compensation of influences by temperature and vibration at the metal probe 8.
