Definitions

  • the present invention is in the field of waste collection, and it relates more particularly to a system and a method for collecting household waste. These are temporarily stored in dedicated places in the municipalities in which are grouped, on the ground or buried, storage containers allocated to the various types of most common household waste (plastic, paper-cardboard, glass, metal, garbage housewives etc).
  • the waste is then periodically collected by means of specialized vehicles which are responsible for emptying the containers before replacing them, empty, for renewed use.
  • the vehicles comprise for this purpose means for lifting the containers allowing them to be moved above dumpsters/waste storage tanks which are fitted to the rear part of their chassis, and into which the contents of the containers are dumped.
  • These lifting means can for example take the form of a crane or equivalent located at the rear of the cockpit of the vehicle and with the aid of which the containers are lifted and transported to place them above a dumpster for emptying them.
  • at least one hatch fitted to the bottom of the container is opened to allow it to be emptied from below. This is for example what is disclosed in the document FR 2 461 664 , which discloses a system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a variant is described in the patent US 3,207,343 , which presents a solution in which the lifting system consists mainly of articulated arms whose rotation, perpendicular to the main axis of the vehicle, is controlled by a first motorized pulley and cable system.
  • a second motorized pulley/cable assembly allows the containers to be lifted, a cable which also participates in the opening of a hatch when emptying.
  • the collection/emptying is done in an axial direction, i.e. the treated containers must be placed in front of the passenger compartment of the vehicle, lifted above it before being emptied and making the reverse journey to be redeposited on the ground.
  • containers of another design which cooperate with lifting means in the form of arms which grip laterally, that is to say at the level of vertically oriented walls, the containers and tilt them in the waste collection tanks.
  • the arms lift the container to move it above the truck, then turn them over to empty them from the top, after retracting the lid.
  • the upper part In this case of tipping of the container, taking into account the mechanical constraints linked to the emptying operations, and for reasons of durability, the upper part must also be expected to be robust.
  • the overturning of the containers in fact produces a sudden tilting of the lid-hatch, leading to repetitive shocks which cause premature aging of the structure, without it being possible to provide additional mechanisms limiting the forces undergone by the emptying hatch, for example by making the opening progressive.
  • the necessary robustness in the upper part of the containers translates in practice into the use of massive, unattractive parts, at a time when the design of street furniture has become an unavoidable issue, particularly for commercial purposes.
  • the invention overcomes these drawbacks, by proposing an innovative solution based on fast kinematics of the type used in the turning solution, without the functions of unloading and posting the waste being located in the same place, thus avoiding the mutual limitations due to their cohabitation and described above.
  • the solution of the invention actually avoids any reversal operation, and keeps the two functions separate, in particular by distinguishing their locations on the container, which are in practice opposite one another.
  • the lifting means applied laterally have the same qualities of diligence of the emptying operations, because allowing the use of an adapted kinematics. It is therefore no longer necessary to pass the containers over the passenger compartment of the vehicle, which considerably simplifies the management of movements, and saves considerable time. In reality, it is the combination of the location of the lifting means and the vertical holding of the containers that makes the system efficient.
  • the lifting means comprise at least one lifting arm rotatably mounted on the frame along an axis of rotation parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, the free end of which is capable of hooking onto a gripping system projecting at least at least one face of the container, said arm being moved by drive means between a deployed position with a view to attachment and an emptying position in which the hatch is above an opening giving access to the means for storing the waste.
  • the lifting means may comprise two lifting arms arranged symmetrically on each side of the container, so that the load of the container is distributed between these arms.
  • the axis of rotation of the arm(s) can then be located on or in the vicinity of one of the sides of the truck, and implement optimal and fast kinematics mainly based on a single rotary path to be performed in both directions.
  • the axis of rotation can also be movable vertically.
  • the lifting arm comprises two sections, a first section, the free end of which comprises an articulation on the chassis of the vehicle and a second section, the free end of which is unciform and designed to cooperate with the attachment means of the gripping system container, said sections being mutually oriented so as to place the container vertically above an opening of the storage means in the emptying position.
  • the container and the lifting means are preferably held inside the surface formed by the footprint of the vehicle. It is also the storage position of the lifting means when they are not activated, and which therefore do not come out of the volume of the vehicle, at least in the width.
  • the opening and closing of the container emptying hatches is done, according to a configuration specific to the invention, in a progressive manner and controlled by the lifting arm or arms which vertically actuate a lifting beam located inside the container and is connected to the emptying hatch via tie rods.
  • the actuation of the lifter can be carried out in particular by means such as at least one hydraulic or electric cylinder, or by any other appropriate solution.
  • the mechanical structure is therefore designed so that the movement induces an automatic opening/closing of the emptying hatch(es), without any other human intervention, when the container is in the vicinity or in line with the opening of the storage tanks of the waste.
  • This opening can for example take the form of a hopper with an upper opening, often provided with means for crushing the waste.
  • This method allows an implementation of the emptying of a container with increased speed and robustness, the steps can individually be implemented in an easy and reliable manner, the kinematics and mechanical structures involved being simplified.
  • the advantages of the invention are numerous.
  • the system implemented also makes it possible to make the opening of the hatches progressive, eliminating the brutality and shocks of previous solutions and de facto lengthening the life of the containers.
  • the separation of functions also allows the upper part to benefit on the one hand from improved aesthetics, and on the other hand from the installation of sensitive equipment such as electronic components or assemblies participating in the individual or collective management of the or containers.
  • the orifices for introducing household waste could for example be equipped with a double drum with access control, which was impossible in the event of a configuration undergoing repeated and intense mechanical stresses.
  • each container will be able to remain clean and therefore adapted to its main objective: to encourage users to deposit their household waste there for recycling.
  • the vehicle 10 in this case a waste collection truck, comprises means 11 for lifting a container 20 placed on the ground in a waste collection area. It also comprises waste storage means in the form of an enclosed volume 12 located in the rear part, on the vehicle chassis 10. Access to these storage means 12 is via a hopper 13, generally provided with a compactor (not shown), which directs the waste towards the volume 12.
  • the lifting means in this case consist of twin arms 14, the free ends of which are hooked to hooking means in the form of gripping systems 21 arranged symmetrically on two opposite vertical faces of the container 20.
  • the sectional view of this figure 1 shows that the arms 14 are driven in rotation by a motor shaft 15 which may be the case optionally be driven vertically arranged parallel to and in the vicinity of a side of the vehicle 10.
  • the bottom of the container 20 is provided with two hatches 22 pivoting along two opposite lower edges of the container 20, in this case located at the bottom of the faces equipped means for hooking the arms 14.
  • the lifting means 11, and consequently the arms 14, always perform the same and unique path, whether it is to pick up a container or return to a stored rest position in the vehicle 10 after having redeposited it, therefore empty, or to move a container towards the hopper 13 or redeposit it, therefore loaded.
  • the hatches 22 are actually controlled by a crossbar 24 to which are fixed tie rods 25, the distal ends of which are pivotally connected in brackets 26 projecting from the upper face of the each hatch 22.
  • the ends of the lifter 24 slide in slideways 27 made in the two opposite walls of the container 20 to which the gripping systems 21 are also fixed. abutment at the upper end of the slide 27, the hatches 22 are completely closed, whereas when they are in contact with the lower end of the slide 27, the hatches 22 are fully open.
  • the lifter 24 can be moved, as mentioned before and in a non-limiting way, by means of at least one hydraulic or electric cylinder. The operation appears seen from inside the container 20 in figure 6 , and seen from the outside in FIG. 7, without these drive means.
  • each lateral gripping system 21 is in the form of an external upright 23 whose upper part which protrudes from the container 20 has a lateral cylindrical stud 28 provided to cooperate with the unciform free end of each arm 14 A hook open towards the top of the arms 14, of such a shape that the block 28 marries its interior profile, lifts the container 20 from below on both sides, the correspondence of shape ensuring a degree of freedom in rotation which makes it possible to preserve at each instant the verticality of the container 20 which rests there by gravity.
  • the uprights 23 also guide the movement of a vertically movable hook 29, also open upwards, and which supports on each side an end of the lifting beam 24 which protrudes from the container 20 outside the slide 27.
  • the outer upright 23 is secured to the opposite faces of the container 20 by means of a fixed hook 30.
