Definitions

  • the following invention refers to a system for the handling of dumpsters in side loading vehicles, the first objective of which is the automatic detection of the type of dumpster to be handled, determining the positioning of the grasping bolts for handling.
  • a second objective of the system is, once the type of dumpster to be handled has been detected, to regulate independently the exact position of the dumpster collection arms so that, once it has been unloaded, it can be put back in the same position from which it was collected.
  • the system itself having detected the exact position of the dumpster, will adapt precisely the independent opening of the pair of arms which pick up the dumpster, allowing it to be grasped correctly, with a small degree of tolerance, thus avoiding any dragging movement of the dumpster on the ground which might damage it.
  • the aforementioned detection system acts as a means of detecting obstacles which might get in the way of the operation for loading/unloading of the corresponding dumpster.
  • This report describes a system for the handling of dumpsters in side loading vehicles, which can be installed on either side of the waste collection vehicle, allowing it to work on either the right or the left with regard to the vehicle's direction of travel.
  • the dumpsters are tipped into the vehicle from the rear in such a way that, in principle, the dumpsters are handled manually by operatives collecting them and tipping the contents into the hopper, and then leaving the dumpsters in a suitable position, while the refuse accumulated in the hopper is compacted to allow collection of the largest possible quantity.
  • waste collection has evolved, to incorporate automatic means at the rear of the vehicle, allowing the operatives to place the dumpsters in a position to be collected and tipped by these means into the hopper, leaving the dumpster, once emptied of its contents, for the operatives to return it to its original position; this way, the effort required by the operatives is reduced considerably, as they only have to move the dumpsters from one place to another.
  • the operation continues to evolve, by incorporating in the waste collection vehicles means which allow the dumpsters to be collected and tipped from the side of the vehicle, making this a more flexible operation which can be carried out by the vehicle's driver, with no requirement for operatives to handle the dumpsters.
  • the capacity of the dumpsters can also be greater.
  • the driver of the vehicle positions the vehicle with the collection means facing the dumpster, so that they pick up the dumpster automatically and tip the contents into the hopper, and then replace the dumpster; depending on the skill of the driver, the handling means for the dumpster will be more or less centred.
  • the aforementioned handling means for dumpster are based, essentially, on a pair of fixed parallel arms which are moved to pick up the dumpster, lift them from ground level and, once grasped, move them closer to the vehicle so that they can be lifted up and tipped. The reverse operation returns them to their position on the ground.
  • ES 1 056 843 describes a " device for the collection of dumpsters, applicable to waste collection trucks " , in which the device is based on a cross-beam with the pair of dumpster collection arms, with the arms coupled to a sliding assembly on the cross-beam.
  • a system for the handling of dumpsters according to the preamble of claim 1 is disclosed in EP 1 020 375 .
  • the system comprises a pair of arms associated with a structure which brings them closer to the dumpster to pick it up and the structure of which, after moving closer to the side of the vehicle, lifts it again, carrying the dumpster, until it is tipped to be unloaded in the collection truck hopper, in such a way that the system comprises:
  • the 3D scanning device for the different types of dumpsters is defined by a laser sensor coupled to a servomotor which scans the dumpsters in real time, and information from which is processed by the control unit associated with it, sending the results to the central control unit.
  • the central control unit has a database which stores the data relating to different types of dumpsters, in order to compare the information sent by the control unit associated with the 3D scanning device, to determine the type of dumpster to be handled and the relative position of the grasping bolts, with the central control unit ordering and controlling all the movements in the system from said detection.
  • the means for moving the pair of arms for holding and handling the dumpsters is defined by a plate which is moved by means of a first hydraulic cylinder, and attached to which is a pair of parallel vertical guides between which there is a carriage for assembly of the means for rotating and regulating the pair of arms for holding the dumpster grasping bolts.
  • the moveable plate associated with the carriage on which the means for rotating and regulating the pair of arms for holding the dumpster grasping bolts are mounted can be moved in relation to a frame arranged horizontally and crosswise on the chassis of the collecting vehicle, under the refuse tipping hopper.
  • the means for rotating the pair of arms for holding the dumpster grasping bolts are defined by a hydraulic actuator, to the shaft of which is attached a grooved shaft on which the pair of arms is mounted using respective tubular pieces.
  • the means for regulation of the pair of arms for holding the dumpster grasping bolts are defined by a pair of independently-acting hydraulic cylinders, which move the pair of arms along the grooved mounting shaft, by means of the tubular pieces, allowing them to be adapted to the measurements of the different types of dumpster, and to the relative position in which the collection vehicle is placed with regard to the dumpsters.
  • the tubular pieces which are used to mount the pair of arms on the grooved shaft have, in an external central position, a recess in which the U-shaped end of a flat bar fits; the other end of this bar is attached to the corresponding piston of a hydraulic cylinder from the pair of hydraulic cylinders, allowing each of them to be operated independently.
  • the means for lifting the dumpsters held by the pair of handling arms are defined by a second hydraulic cylinder which moves the carriage, associated with the pair of arms, between the pair of parallel vertical mounting guides.
  • the second hydraulic cylinder in relation to the carriage lifting means, works in conjunction with a pair of chains which are firmly attached at one end to the fixed structure of the moveable plate in the means for bringing the dumpsters closer, and at the other end are firmly attached to the carriage, and are associated with respective intermediate pulleys mounted on a bar firmly attached to the piston of the aforementioned second hydraulic cylinder.
  • the means for anchoring the grasping bolts on the dumpsters to the pair of arms for holding and opening the lid of the dumpsters are defined by a tilting body, associated with the arm itself, which, when deployed, fulfils the dual function of anchoring the grasping bolts and opening the lid of the dumpster.
  • the tilting body in relation to the means for anchoring the grasping bolts and opening the lid, has an oval-shaped side protrusion which, when tilted, closes on the corresponding grasping bolt for the dumpster and anchors it, while also acting on the lid to open it.
  • the hydraulic actuator is activated, rotating the grooved shaft and with it the pair of arms holding the dumpster, at the same time as the grasping bolts have been anchored, the lid of the dumpster opened and, where relevant, means for holding the dumpster operated.
  • the means for holding the dumpsters while being tipped are defined by a fourth hydraulic cylinder and a pair of flat bars which tilt in the direction of the pair of arms and a roller which tilts in a crosswise direction to the latter.
  • the cabin computer system associated with the central control unit, may load files onto an external server so that they can be accessed from other authorised computers.
  • figure 2 of the drawings shows how, in the rest position, the system is flat against the structure of the collection vehicle 1, and in figure 3 it can be seen how, in operations to collect dumpsters 2, it is moved outwards by acting on the means for bringing the dumpsters closer.
  • Figure 5 shows how the system is mounted on a side of the collection vehicle 1.
  • the 3D scanning means 3 will operate, based on a laser sensor attached to a servomotor and a control unit, carrying out a 180° sweep of the corresponding dumpster in real time, processing the information obtained and sending it to a central control unit 6.
  • the central control unit 6 is associated with a database 7 which stores the data relating to different types of dumpsters 2 to be handled so that, in order to compare the information sent by the scanning means, the control unit 6 will determine the type of dumpster to be handled and the exact position of the grasping bolts 8, with the central control unit 6 ordering and controlling all the movements in the system from said detection.
  • central control unit 6 is connected to a computer unit 4 with a screen set up, for example, in the vehicle cabin, on which the driver 5 of the vehicle interacts.
  • the central control unit 6 will be responsible for communicating the appropriate orders to the system to carry out the whole unloading manoeuvre and the reverse operation, and also to the means in the compacting hopper. It is also responsible for safety management.
  • the means for bringing closer the pair of arms 9 for holding the grasping bolts 8 to handle the dumpster are activated; said means are defined by a plate 10 which is moveable in a horizontal direction with regard to a frame 11 arranged on the collection vehicle chassis 1, in a crosswise position, under the refuse tipping hopper 12.
  • the moveable plate 10 in relation to the means for bringing the device closer, is operated by a first hydraulic cylinder 13 and the fixed structure of the aforementioned plate 10 has had a pair of parallel vertical guides 14 attached, with a carriage 15 mounted between them and which moves along them.
  • the rotating means are defined by a hydraulic actuator 16 associated with which, on both sides, is a grooved shaft 17 on which the pair of arms 9 is mounted;
  • the regulation means are defined by a pair of hydraulic cylinders 18a and 18b which act independently on each of the arms 9.
  • the carriage 15 with the means for rotating and regulating the pair of arms 9 for handling the dumpsters 2 mounted on it moves along the pair of guides 14 by means of a second hydraulic cylinder 19 with the help of a pair of belts or chains 20, one end of which is attached to the plate 10 structure and the other end attached to the structure of the carriage 15.
  • said pair of belts or chains 20 pass around the corresponding pulley or pinion 21 mounted on a bar firmly attached to the piston of said second hydraulic cylinder 19, so that a displacement "X" of the piston of the second hydraulic cylinder 19 corresponds to a displacement "X/2" of the carriage 15.
  • the pair of arms 9 is mounted on a grooved shaft 17 by means of a tubular piece 22 associated with a bar 23 fixed to the end of the piston on the corresponding hydraulic cylinder of said pair of hydraulic cylinders 18a and 18b, so that, when the pair of hydraulic cylinders act, independently, the pair of arms 9 is positioned to pick up the corresponding dumpster 2 by the grasping bolts 8.
  • the tubular piece 22 which is grooved on the inside, has a central recess 24 on the outside in which a U-shaped end of the bar 23 fits; the other end of the bar is attached to the piston of the corresponding hydraulic cylinder of the pair of hydraulic cylinders 18a and 18b, so that the action of the corresponding hydraulic cylinder 18a or 18b causes it to move, and the corresponding arm 9 with it.
  • one or both cylinders can be activated in relation to the pair of hydraulic cylinders 18a - 18b to regulate the position of the pair of arms 9 so that they are perfectly positioned in relation to the grasping bolts 8 of the dumpster, allowing it to be picked up with precision, avoiding any lateral dragging of the dumpster, which might damage the dumpster itself or the collection system.
  • this sideways adjustment of the pair of arms 9 ensures that, once the dumpster is emptied, it will be put back in the same position it occupied before being unloaded onto the tipping and compacting hopper 12.
  • Figure 12 of the drawings shows how the grooved shaft 17 is attached to the hydraulic actuator 16 which transmits movement to it via an adapter 25 which is threaded on the inside, on one side to the shaft of the hydraulic actuator 16 and on the other to the grooved shaft 17, although any other equivalent means could be used.
  • Figures 13 , 14 and 15 show how, once the pair of arms 9 have positioned the grasping bolts 8 of the corresponding dumpster 2, the means for anchoring and opening the dumpster lids operate; these are defined by a tilting body 26 associated with the arm 9, which is activated by a third hydraulic cylinder 27 via a first set of levers 28.
  • Said figures show how the aforementioned oval-shaped protrusion 29 protrudes through a window 34 in the concave depression for positioning the grasping bolt 8, closes on it and anchors it.
  • the means for anchoring the grasping bolts 8 and opening the lid are assisted by means for holding the dumpster, also associated with the corresponding arm 9, which are defined by a fourth hydraulic cylinder 30 which acts on a second set of levers 31.
  • the fourth hydraulic cylinder when activated, it causes deployment of an element 32 in the same direction as the arm 9 and simultaneously causes deployment of a crosswise roller 33, which is positioned on the internal face of the dumpster.
  • Figures 16 , 17 and 18 show how the means for holding the dumpster have been deployed and how the means for anchoring the grasping bolts 8 and opening the lid are deployed.
  • Figures 19a, 19b and 19c show how, from the rest position, the third hydraulic cylinder 27 is used to deploy the means for anchoring the grasping bolts 8 of the dumpsters and opening the lid, in other words the tilting body 26, to its maximum tilting position, via the first set of levers 28.
  • Figures 20a and 20b show how, from the rest position, the fourth hydraulic cylinder 30 is used to deploy the means for holding the dumpster, based on a pair of flat bars 32a and 32b which tilts in the direction of the pair of arms 9 and on a roller 33 which tilts in a crosswise direction to the latter and which is pressed up against the front face of the dumpster, as can be seen in figures 16 to 18 .
  • Figures 21a, 21b, 21c and 21d show how the means for holding the dumpster are deployed from their rest position to their working position so that, when the piston of the fourth hydraulic cylinder 30 is retracted, the pair of flat bars 32a and 32b are tilted, in relation to different rotating axes, while the flat bar 32b acts on a third flat bar 35 which carries a roller 33, and where the third flat bar 35 is joined in a rotating manner to the opposite end of the pair of flat bars 32a and 32b, causing it to tilt in an orthogonal direction to them.
  • the central control unit 6 is associated with a geo-positioning system 36 and a recording database 37, which tracks the route taken by the vehicles 1, the collection points and the amount of waste collected, providing information which can be used to obtain information on the collection service and, depending on the conclusions drawn, act accordingly.
  • the cabin computer system 4 associated with the central control unit 6 may load files onto an external server 38 so that they can be accessed from other authorised computers 39.
  • the method of operation is as follows: the waste collection vehicle 1 is positioned, with the system in its rest position, alongside the corresponding dumpster 2 to be unloaded facing the side collection system; the driver, who is also the system operator, uses a cabin monitoring computer unit 4 to interact with the collection system, stopping it in as central a position as possible so that, subsequently, scanning means 3, based on a laser sensor, a servomotor and a control unit, performs a 180° sweep of the corresponding dumpster in real time, and processes the information obtained and sends it to a central control unit 6 for processing; the type of dumpster in question can then be identified, by comparing it with the database 7, together with the position of the dumpster's grasping bolts 8.
  • the central control unit 6 uses this information to manage and control the optimum sequence of movements for collection, emptying and return of the dumpster to its exact collection point.
  • the first hydraulic cylinder 13 has displaced the plate 10 which is attached to the pair of guides 14 between which is mounted the carriage 15 carrying the means for rotating and regulating the pair of arms 9, while the hydraulic actuator 16 has rotated the grooved shaft 17 and consequently the pair of arms 9, and the pair of hydraulic cylinders 18a and 18b have adjusted the width thereof, in order to pick up the dumpster without dragging it in any way.
  • the means for anchoring the grasping bolts 8 of the dumpster 2 and opening the lid are also activated, so that the dumpster 2 can be released in the subsequent manoeuvres.
  • said anchoring means are based on a tilting body 26 which is operated by a third hydraulic cylinder 27 via a first set of levers 28.
  • the dumpster held by the pair of arms 9 can be lifted by the action of the second hydraulic cylinder 19, which moves the carriage 15, which carries the means for rotating and regulating the pair of arms 9, to the elevated position; in this position, when the hydraulic actuator 16 operates, it causes the grooved shaft 17 and, consequently, the pair of arms 9 to rotate. In said tipping operation, the tilting body 26 will cause the lid of the dumpster 2 to open.
  • the dumpster 2 Once the dumpster 2 has been emptied, it will be returned to its initial position, and the system will return to its rest position, so that the vehicle can continue its route to the next dumpster to be emptied.
