  • the invention is related to a refuse collection device located below ground, comprising a chamber opening at ground level at the top, said chamber comprising a concrete housing as well as a cover provided with a deposit opening and pivotably connected to the frame for opening and closing the housing, a container which is open at the top and which is accommodated in the chamber for collecting refuse via the deposit opening in the cover, said container being removable from the housing after opening the cover, said chamber comprising weighing means for weighing the container.
  • a refuse collection device of this type is disclosed in NL-C-1.027.909 .
  • Said prior art refuse collection device comprises weighing cells which are connected to the top side of a frame on the housing.
  • the container has an outwardly protruding rim, which comes to rest on top of these weighing cells.
  • One of the weighing cells is positioned on one of the rims, the opposite rim comprising two weighing cells.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a refuse collection device as described before, it is to say a refuse collection device which comprises weighing means, which has a less cumbersome and therefore more economic construction. This object is achieved in that the weighing means are accommodated in the concrete housing.
  • the step of accommodating the weighing means in the concrete housing has several advantages. In the first place, it is fairly easy to install the weighing means. According to a first possibility, the weighing means can be positioned in the proper place of the mould which is used to manufacture the housing. After the concrete has been brought in the mould, the weighing means can be fixed in the proper place during hardening of the concrete. A further advantage of the step of accommodating the weighing means in the concrete housing is the fact that they are well protected against external influences.
  • the weighing means can be positioned in different parts of the concrete housing, under the condition that proper weighing results can be obtained. Preference is given to an embodiment wherein the weighing means are positioned in or on opposite side walls of the concrete housing. Most preferably, two and only two weighing means are provided. In such case, the weighing means are positioned on opposite walls. This means that the container is supported at two points only, in such a way that it can pivot somewhat so as to obtain an equilibrium position, depending on the distribution of the contents within the container. The weighing means can be positioned in either of the pairs of opposing walls of the housing. In contrast, according to the prior art as disclosed in said Dutch patent, three weighing cells are used.
  • the housing may have cavities within which the weighing means have been accommodated.
  • opposite walls of the concrete housing have facing internal depressions which open out at the top of said walls. Within these depressions, the weighing means are accommodated.
  • the container has protrusions fitting in said internal depressions, in such a way that the protrusions are resting on the weighing means.
  • the weighing means can be positioned on the bottom of the depressions, when seen in vertical direction.
  • the depressions are diverging in upward direction.
  • the depressions when seen in vertical direction, have a generally V-shaped introduction part, as well as a fitting part comprising a weighing cell.
  • opposite walls of the housing are provided with internal shoulders. These shoulders, which are obtained by widening the internal space of the housing, are facing upwardly and thus provide a proper support for a weighing means.
  • the protrusions provided on the container are each resting on a corresponding weighing cell.
  • the shoulders have been provided in two of the opposite walls only.
  • the shoulders and the additional space which is obtained thereby within the housing can be used fruitfully to install further devices.
  • at least one of the shoulders is provided with an actuator for operating the cover.
  • a metal frame (4) can be provided on the housing (3).
  • Said frame covers the top of the concrete housing leaving free the depressions of the concrete housing.
  • the top of the concrete housing may comprise an uncovered inner section and a bordering outer section covered by the frame, the depressions emanating in the uncovered inner section of the top.
  • the frame may comprise anchors accommodated within the concrete material of the concrete housing during hardening thereof.
  • the frame may protrude with respect to the outer surface of the concrete housing, the protruding section of the frame being provided with dewatering openings.
  • said frame comprises a corner profile, one leg of which is connected to the outside of the concrete housing walls and the other leg of which points inwardly at the wall top.
  • the invention is related to a method of fabricating a refuse collection device according to any of the preceding claims, comprising the steps of:
  • the refuse collection device shown in figures 1-4 comprises a chamber, indicated by the reference 1, which opens at ground level 2 at the top.
  • Said chamber 1 comprises a concrete housing 3 (shown in dotted lines as the housing 3 is below the ground level 2), a metal frame 4 on top of the housing 3 and a cover 5 which is hingedly connected to the frame 4.
  • the cover 5 carries a column 6, provided with a lid 7 which can be opened and closed.
  • the lid is provided with a solar cell for feeding the electric devices such as an actuator, electronic access devices etc.
  • a steel container 8 (shown in dotted lines) is positioned for receiving the refuse which is thrown in through the column 6.
  • a display/reader 38 is provided for giving access to the device through a chip card.
  • the concrete housing 3 has side walls 9, a front wall 10 and a back wall 11. Furthermore, the concrete housing 3 has a bottom 12 (see figure 4 ) which is carried out as a unity with said walls 9-11.
  • the side walls 9 are each provided with depressions 12 which each consist, seen from above, of a V-shaped introduction part 13, a prismatic part 14 and a fitting part 15 within which the actual weighing cells 16 have been accommodated.
  • signal lines 17 are accommodated within the side walls 9.
  • each V-shaped introduction part opens out in uncovered section 18 at the top of the walls 9. Furthermore, bordering the uncovered section 18, the bordering outer section 19 is covered by the frame 4.
  • the container 8 is provided with protrusions 20 on two opposite side walls, which protrusions fit within the depressions 13 in the side walls 2 of the concrete housing 3.
  • the protrusions 20 comprise a ball-shaped lower end 21, a prismatic part 22 and a V-shaped upper part 23.
  • the ball-shaped lower end 21 comes to rest on a respective weighing cell 16, the prismatic part 22 is received in a correspondingly shaped prismatic part 14 of the depression 12, and the V-shaped upper part 23 is received in the V-shaped introduction part 13 of said depression 12.
  • the frame 4 comprises channel shaped profiles 33, consisting of a base 22, an inner side wall 23 and an outer side all 24.
  • the profiles 33 comprise an integrated anchor part 25 which is anchored in the concrete of the back wall 11 of the concrete housing 3, during hardening of the concrete of thereof.
  • the outer side wall 24 rests against the pavement 40, the base 22 is provided with openings 26 for the watering the profiles 21 into the ground.
  • a hinge 27 is connected for opening and closing the cover 5.
  • the weighing cells 16 are positioned in the side walls 9 of the concrete housing, alternatively they may be accommodated in the front wall 10 and back wall 11.
  • the container can be provided with fittings for coupling lifting means to the container.
  • lifting means By means of such lifting means, the container can be lifted from the concrete housing and subsequently the container can be emptied and placed back into the concrete housing 3. Finally the lifting means can be uncoupled from the fittings and the cover 5 is closed.
  • the alternative embodiment of the refuse collection device as shown in figures 5- 8 comprises a concrete housing 3, the side walls 9 of which are provided with internal cavities 34, in such a way that upwardly facing shoulders 31 are provided. These upwardly facing shoulders 31 provide a support for the weighing cells 16.
  • These weighing cells 16 are associated with centring devices 33 which are open in upward direction and which have a diverging shape.
  • centring devices 33 By means of the centring devices 33, the protrusions 20 as provided on opposite sides of the container 8 are guided into the proper position while lowering the container 8 into the housing 3.
  • the protrusions have circular shape, in such a way that the container 8 can pivot and therefore can adjust its position under the influence of the distribution of the waste contents which have been thrown into the container.
  • each cavity 34 has been provided with a piston/cylinder device 32 for operating the cover 5.
  • Said cover in the closed position, cooperates with the horizontal leg 36 of the L-shaped profile 4, the vertical leg 35 of which is connected to the outside of the concrete housing 3.
