- the covering device 1, and in particular the mast sliding 3, is placed just in front of this maneuvering arm 25.
- the cover device is still mounted on the frame of a carrier vehicle; it consists of a telescopic central mast 3 at the end of which the bracket 4 and the cover 5 are pivotally mounted about the vertical axis 26 corresponding to the longitudinal vertical axis of the mast 3.
- the maneuver of the bracket 4 around of the pivot axis 26 allows the active or passive position of the cover 5, after extension of the mast 3 to deport above the upper edge 11 of the bucket 2.
- the embodiment variant illustrated in Figures 33, 34 and 35 comprises a weighted support base 58 at one end of which extends vertically the telescopic mast 3.
- the bracket 4 is fixed rigidly to the end of the mast 3 and it carries the lid 5.
- the mast 3 is in two parts hinged about the axis 18 to tilt the lid 5 on one side or the other of the bucket 2.
- This embodiment is particularly suitable for being applied in sites with stabilized soil unpaved or concreted; the base 58 then advantageously allows to give the bucket a slope of the order of 2 to 4%.
- the removable body 2 is positioned on the base 58 so that its handling hook 39 is placed opposite the mast 3.
- Figures 36, 37 and 38 show a variant of the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 29.
- the support mast 3 secured to one of the end walls 9 of the bucket
- This telescopic mast 3 is fixed on a vertical wall 60, for example the wall of a bin location of a dump.
- This telescopic mast 3 has the ability to pivot about the horizontal axis 18, here on one side only, to allow the vertical position of the cover 5, either in the absence of bucket 2, or for the filling of this bucket, or for its removal or setting up.
- FIG. 41 is a schematic view showing the possibility of equipping the cover element 5 with the covering device 1 according to the present invention, with means of jointing 61 adapted to achieve a seal, in the active position, with respect to the upper edge 11 of the container 2, and possibly to recover certain flatness defects.
- joining means 61 advantageously consist of a flexible coil structure of elastic material (plastic, elastomer, etc.) positioned over the entire periphery of the lower face of the cover element 5.
- FIG. 41 illustrates the cover 5 with its jointing structure 61, remote from the upper edge 11 of the bucket 2; it also illustrates the cover member 5 placed on the upper edge 11 of the bucket 2, with the sealing bead 61 partially compressed.
- the sealing flange 61 is positioned so as to properly bear against the upper peripheral edge 11 of the bucket 2 when the cover 5 is in the active position.
- a jointing structure of this type also appears in FIG.
- FIG. 42 is a view similar to FIG. 41, in which, in addition to the aforementioned jointing means 61, means are provided for automatically centering the cover 5 with respect to the upper opening of the skip 2.
- These centering means here consist of alignment guides 62 in the form of truncated cones secured to the underside of the cover 5 and whose outer slope area cooperates with the peripheral section 63 which frames the upper opening 7 of the bucket.
- the number and positioning of the centering members 62 are adapted to obtain the desired result. It is understood that during the descent of the cover member 5 to place it in the active position, the guides 62 perform a correct positioning centered said cover, catching any slight misalignment of origin. These guides 62 also ensure that the lid device is held securely during transport.
- the alignment guides 62 may be provided on the cover member 5 independently of the jointing structure 61.
- the cover device according to the invention can be made integral with said operating arm.
- the cover member 5 is carried by one or more brackets located above its upper face and secured by means of connecting members. elastic.
- the bracket or gallows can be integrated into the cover element and form a part of the structure of the latter, this cover element then becoming self-supporting.
