Definitions

  • the invention relates to a an assembly of a vehicle and a container for collecting refuse, wherein the vehicle is provided with a supply device for supplying refuse to the container, and wherein the container can be coupled with the vehicle, wherein the container is provided with a bottom with walls and with an opening in the container that can be connected to the supply device, a closing device of the opening that can be moved between an open position, in which the opening is freely accessible, and a closed position, in which the opening is closed, and a control device for alternately bringing the closing device to an opened and to a closed position.
  • the invention also relates to a container for such an assembly.
  • the invention further relates to a method for coupling such an assembly to such a vehicle.
  • the known container is used to collect refuse.
  • the container for example a garbage container, comprises a bottom and walls, in particular surrounding walls connected to the bottom. In a wall an opening is provided. The opening is closable with for example a door or slide.
  • the container can be coupled with a truck or lorry.
  • the truck has a supply device for refuse.
  • the supply device comprises a lifting arm for lifting relatively small refuse containers, an inlet into which the contents of said refuse containers can be emptied, and an outlet.
  • the opening of the coupleable container is connectable to an outlet of the supply device. Refuse can thus be collected in the container.
  • the container When the container is filled with a certain amount of refuse, the container can be de-coupled after which a new, empty container can be placed on the vehicle.
  • the door closes off the opening of the container, so that refuse in the container cannot leave the container.
  • the door must first be brought to the opened position, so that the opening is made available and ready to be coupled with the outlet of the supply device.
  • a control button is provided, with which an operator can control the door before a container is coupled with the garbage truck.
  • FR 2 218 260 A1 describes an assembly of a container and a truck, the truck also having a tailgate assembly. Before a new container can be coupled with the truck, the tailgate assembly must be fully raised. After a new container has been coupled with the truck, the tailgate assembly is lowered, after which the assembly is connected to the loaded container. As such, FR 2 218 260 requires a number of distinct actions required to couple a new container.
  • Document DE 94 07 869 U1 discloses an assembly of a container with a truck. After coupling of the container with the truck, an opening in the container must be made accessible.
  • Document DE 198 20 665 A1 discloses a closing device for a container designed to prevent the unwanted collection of refuse in parts of the closing device mechanism.
  • opening a door covering the container opening takes time and/or requires a number of distinct operations.
  • the door is generally opened before the container is placed on the truck, and only after this is done can the container be connected with the supply device.
  • the coupling process must be interrupted half-way in order to open the container door.
  • movements of other parts, such as a tailgate assembly is required before and after coupling. The requirement of these distinct, sequential, operations is inefficient.
  • the invention provides an assembly of a vehicle according to claim 1.
  • the assembly has elements of the known assembly mentioned in the introduction, and is furthermore characterized in that the control device is arranged to cooperate with a activator body provided on the vehicle in such a manner that the activator body brings the closing device to the open position while the container is being coupled with the vehicle.
  • the invention thus makes it possible to automatically open the closing device, making the opening in the container available to the supply device, as part of the process of coupling the container with the vehicle.
  • automatically opening is meant that bringing the closing device to the open position may be achieved without a separate action by an operator.
  • the activator body During the process of coupling the container with the vehicle, or, while the container is being coupled with the vehicle, the activator body will activate the control device.
  • the activated control device which is arranged to cooperate with the activator body, will then open the closing device.
  • An operator is not required to use the control device in order to open the closing device.
  • the act of opening the closing device cannot be omitted through forgetfulness of an operator.
  • the control device is arranged to cooperate with the activator body to open the closing device while the container is being coupled -- in other words, the time spans required for coupling the container with the vehicle and for opening the closing device overlap -- the process of coupling is more efficient as the two acts are performed simultaneously instead of sequentially .
  • a part of the supply device in a coupled state of the container a part of the supply device extends into, or penetrates, via the opening of the container, the interior of the container.
  • the closing device is opened during coupling, so that damage to the closing device is prevented.
  • opening of the closing device after coupling is possible in principle, for example when the supply device has no protruding parts that extend into the interior of the container, it is more efficient and less error-prone to automatically open the opening device, or the doors, during coupling.
  • control device is arranged to cooperate with the activator body in such a manner that during de-coupling of the container and the vehicle the control device brings the closing device to the closed position.
  • the closing device is thus closed already during the process of de-coupling.
  • the operator does not need to perform an additional act after de-coupling the container and the vehicle, so said act cannot be omitted through forgetfulness.
  • the refuse collected in the container can thus not accidentally spill out of the opening.
  • control device comprises a control element that is movable between a first and a second position, a movement to said positions being arranged to bring the closing device in the open respectively the closed position.
  • the control element can be a plunger with a first and a second position.
  • the control element can be a piston with a piston rod in a cylinder.
  • the control element can be a hydraulic element, such as a hydraulic cylinder.
  • a hydraulic transmission may be used to use movement of a piston in the hydraulic cylinder to effect an opening of the closing device.
  • the activator body can be arranged to move the control element while the container is being coupled to the vehicle.
  • the activator body can be arranged to move the control element to a first position during coupling, in such a manner that the closing device is brought to the open position.
  • the activator body may be arranged to keep the control element in the first position while in the coupled state. During de-coupling, the activator body will move away from the control element. This will bring the closing device to the closed position.
  • the control device may be an electronic device.
  • the control element can be an electrical button, which in a pressed state activates an electronic circuit in order to bring the closing device to an open position. As long as the button is depressed, the closing device will remain in the open position.
  • the electric circuit may register a release of the button, after which the closing device is brought to the closed position.
  • the control element may comprise a slidable plunger. With the plunger a force can be exerted. The force may be used to open or close the closing device.
  • the control device comprises a hydraulic cylinder.
  • the hydraulic cylinder may be a plunger cylinder.
  • the piston and the piston rod form the control element.
  • the activator body pushes against the piston rod during coupling.
  • the displacement of the piston and the piston rod causes a force that can be used for opening the closing device, such as a door.
  • the force exerted by the activator body on the piston rod will be reduced. This will cause the piston rod to automatically return to its original position.
  • the application of a hydraulic cylinder has the effect that a certain threshold amount of force is needed to bring the closing device to an open position.
  • the threshold force can be determined at will.
  • the threshold force ensures that the closing device cannot be opened when the force on the piston rod is insufficient. This prevents unwanted opening of the closing device.
  • the container may comprise a transmission connected to the closing device and to the control device. This allows the control device to be placed in a suitable location, which may be at a distance from the closing device.
  • the transmission is a hydraulic transmission.
  • a reliable opening and closing action of the opening may be achieved.
