Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Kehreimer nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a dustbin according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Solche Kehreimer werden in einer Vielzahl von Anwendungen und mit unterschiedlichen Ausgestaltungen seit Jahrzehnten eingesetzt, um beispielsweise Haare in einem Friseursalon, Staub und Unrat in einem Haushalt oder Bauschutt auf einer Baustelle aufzunehmen. Dazu ist es erforderlich, dass der Abfall zusammengekehrt wird und anschließend entweder manuell oder mit Hilfe einer Kehrrichtschaufel in einen entsprechenden Eimer eingefüllt ist. Sobald der Eimer mit den Abfallprodukten gefüllt ist, kann dieser in einem noch größeren Behältnis entleert werden.Such dustbins have been used in a variety of applications and with different configurations for decades, for example to collect hair in a hairdressing salon, dust and rubbish in a household or rubble on a construction site. This requires the waste to be swept up and then filled into an appropriate bucket either manually or with the help of a dustpan. As soon as the bucket is filled with the waste products, it can be emptied into an even larger container.

Als nachteilig bei diesen bekannten Kehreimern hat sich herausgestellt, dass die Öffnung, durch die die Abfallprodukte in das Innere des Kehreimers einzufüllen sind, von dem Untergrund, auf dem die Abfallprodukte üblicherweise vorhanden sind, beabstandet ist. Folglich sind die Abfallprodukte von dem Untergrund aufzunehmen und in Richtung der Öffnung des Eimers zu transportieren bzw. zu bewegen. Oftmals gehen bei solchen Bewegungsvorgängen die Abfallprodukte verloren und fallen auf den Untergrund zurück.A disadvantage of these known dustbins has been found that the opening through which the waste products are to be filled into the interior of the dustbin is spaced apart from the ground on which the waste products are usually present. Consequently, the waste products have to be picked up from the ground and transported or moved towards the opening of the bucket. The waste products are often lost during such movement processes and fall back onto the ground.

Darüber hinaus können solche Eimer aufgrund der fehlenden Standfestigkeit umfallen, wenn beispielsweise mit Hilfe eines Besens die Abfallprodukte zusammengekehrt sind und der Besen dabei an den Eimer anstößt, so dass dieser umfällt.In addition, due to the lack of stability, such buckets can fall over if, for example, the waste products are swept up with the help of a broom and the broom hits the bucket, causing it to fall over.

Dies führt nachteiliger Weise dazu, dass die Abfallprodukte aus dem Eimer herausfallen und erneut zusammenzukehren und in den Eimer zurückzuführen sind.This disadvantageously results in the waste products falling out of the bucket and having to be swept up and returned to the bucket.

Weitere Abfallprodukte bestehend aus einem Eimer und einer Füllrampe sind aus WO 2016/149275 A1 , US 2003/214141 A1 , US 2018/032445 A1 und DE 195 39 387 A1 bekannt. Hierbei sind die Füllrampen als Einzelteile ausgebildet und lösbar an die Eimer anbringbar.More waste products consisting of a bucket and a filling ramp are out WO 2016/149275 A1 , U.S. 2003/214141 A1 , U.S. 2018/032445 A1 and DE 195 39 387 A1 famous. Here, the filling ramps are designed as individual parts and can be attached to the buckets in a detachable manner.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung einen Kehreimer der eingangs genannten Gattung derart weiterzubilden, dass dieser zum einen eine hohe Standfestigkeit unabhängig von seiner Positionierung aufweist und dass der Kehreimer zum anderen unabhängig von seiner Positionierung sowie für die Aufnahme der vom Untergrund zusammengekehrten Abfallprodukte dazu geeignet ist, zuverlässig die Abfallprodukte aufzunehmen und diese in dem Inneren des Kehreimers verbleiben.It is therefore the object of the invention to develop a dustbin of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that, on the one hand, it has a high level of stability, regardless of its positioning, and, on the other hand, that the dustbin is suitable, regardless of its positioning, and for receiving the waste products swept up from the ground reliably pick up the waste products and these remain inside the dustbin.

Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils von Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features of the characterizing part of patent claim 1.

Weitere vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further advantageous developments of the invention result from the dependent claims.

Dadurch, dass bereichsweise an dem Kehreimer eine Rampe als Einfülltrichter angeformt ist, dass die äußere Wand des Kehreimers und der Rampe in einem Winkel α von 110° bis 170° zueinander verlaufen, ist erreicht, dass über die Rampe die Abfallprodukte in das Innere des Kehreimer eingeschoben werden können, da der Kehreimer über die Rampe mit dem Untergrund verbunden ist, so dass die Abfallprodukte über die Rampe unmittelbar in das Innere des Kehreimer gelangen und dort gelagert werden können, zudem behindert der offene Winkel zwischen der äußeren Wand des Kehreimers und Rampe die Einfüllvorgänge nicht, so dass Abfallprodukte mit völlig unterschiedlichen Haftungs- oder Verwirbelungsparameter über diese bewegbar sind. Da die Materialanhäufung des Kehreimers unterhalb der mittleren Ebene größer ausgestaltet ist als die Materialanhäufung des Kehreimers und der Rampe oberhalb der mittleren Ebene, ist eine höhere Standfestigkeit des Kehreimers gewährleistet.The fact that a ramp is formed on the dustbin as a filling funnel in some areas, that the outer wall of the dustbin and the ramp run at an angle α of 110° to 170° to each other, means that the waste products can be discharged into the interior of the dustbin via the ramp can be pushed in, since the dustbin is connected to the ground via the ramp, so that the waste products can reach the interior of the dustbin directly via the ramp and be stored there, and the open angle between the outer wall of the dustbin and ramp hinders the Filling processes not, so that waste products with completely different adhesion or swirling parameters are movable over them. Since the accumulation of material in the dustbin below the middle level is designed to be greater than the accumulation of material in the dustbin and the ramp above the middle level, greater stability of the dustbin is ensured.

Da die Rampe und der Kehreimer jeweils eine plane Auflagefläche aufweisen, die zueinander koaxial oder fluchtend verlaufen, sind sowohl der Kehreimer als auch die Rampe in dem umgekippten Zustand des Kehreimers gegen Verdrehen oder ein seitliches Wegrutschen gesichert. Die Stirnseite der Rampe und die plane Auflagefläche, die an dem Kehreimer, insbesondere an dessen Außenseite, vorgesehen sind, stützen nämlich den Kehreimer und die Rampe senkrecht zu deren Längsachse ab. Selbst wenn daher ein Stoß oder ein Tritt seitlich gegen den Kehreimer oder die Rampe erfolgen sollte, verrutschen diese nicht, so dass die in dem Inneren des Kehreimers bereits eingefügten Abfallprodukte aus diesem nicht herausfallen können. Vorteilhafterweise kann der Kehreimer und die Rampe beim Einkehren der Abfallprodukte jedoch in Richtung deren Längsachse verrutschen, so dass zwischen der Rampe und dem Untergrund keine Abfallprodukte gelangen, da diese durch einen Besen beim nächsten Kehrvorgang in den Kehreimer gelangen.Since the ramp and the dustbin each have a flat support surface that runs coaxially or in alignment with one another, both the dustbin and the ramp are secured against twisting or slipping sideways when the dustbin is in the tipped-over state. Support the end face of the ramp and the flat bearing surface provided on the dustbin, in particular on its outside namely the dustbin and the ramp perpendicular to their longitudinal axis. Therefore, even if the dustbin or the ramp is hit or kicked from the side, they do not slip, so that the waste products already inserted inside the dustbin cannot fall out of it. Advantageously, however, the dustbin and the ramp can slip in the direction of their longitudinal axis when the waste products are swept away, so that no waste products get between the ramp and the ground, since they get into the dustbin with a broom during the next sweeping operation.

Wenn der Kehreimer und die Rampe aufgestellt sind, so dass demnach die Längsachse des Kehreimers senkrecht zu dem Untergrund verläuft, weist der Kehreimer eine erhöhte Standsicherheit auf, da der Schwerpunkt des Kehreimer und der Rampe unterhalb der mittleren Ebene angeordnet ist. Die Materialanhäufung im unteren Bereich des Kehreimers, die demnach dem Untergrund zugeordnet ist und unmittelbar benachbart zu diesem verläuft, ist wesentlich größer bemessen als die Materialanhäufung des Kehreimers oberhalb des Mittelpunktes bzw. des von der Rampe und im Kehreimer gebildeten mittleren Ebene.If the dustbin and the ramp are set up so that the longitudinal axis of the dustbin runs perpendicular to the ground, the dustbin has increased stability, since the center of gravity of the dustbin and the ramp is located below the middle level. The accumulation of material in the lower area of the dustbin, which is therefore assigned to the ground and runs directly adjacent to it, is significantly larger than the accumulation of material in the dustbin above the center point or the middle plane formed by the ramp and in the dustbin.

Um den Kehreimer manuell halten, anheben oder neigen zu können, ist an diesem ein Haltegriff angeformt oder angebracht, der vorteilhafterweise gegenüberliegend zu der Rampe vorgesehen ist, denn dadurch kann der Kehreimer um eine virtuelle Schwenkachse verkippt sein, wodurch das in dem Inneren des Kehreimers eingefügte Abfallprodukt über die Rampe nach außen gelangt und beispielsweise in eine größere Abfalltonne eingefüllt werden kann.In order to be able to hold, lift or tilt the dustbin manually, a handle is formed or attached to it, which is advantageously provided opposite the ramp, because this allows the dustbin to be tilted about a virtual pivot axis, whereby the inside of the dustbin inserted Waste product passes over the ramp to the outside and can be filled into a larger garbage can, for example.

Wenn der Kehreimer und die Rampe gemeinsam auf dem Untergrund aufliegen, ist ein Wulst zwischen der Rampe und dem Inneren des Kehreimer vorgesehen, durch den das bereits in dem Kehreimer eingefügte Abfallprodukt in diesem gehalten ist, so dass dieses nicht ohne weiteres Dieser Text wurde durch das DPMA aus Originalquellen übernommen. Er enthält keine Zeichnungen. Die Darstellung von Tabellen und Formeln kann unbefriedigend sein. über die Rampe nach außen in Richtung des Untergrundes gelangen kann. Zudem ist durch den Wulst vorteilhafterweise erreicht, dass das Innere des Kehreimers zu etwa 2/3 befüllt werden kann, selbst wenn der Kehreimer auf dem Untergrund gekippt ist.When the dustbin and the ramp rest on the ground together, a bulge is provided between the ramp and the inside of the dustbin, through which the waste product already inserted in the dustbin is held in it, so that it cannot easily This text was replaced by the DPMA taken from original sources. It contains no drawings. The presentation of tables and formulas can be unsatisfactory. via the ramp to the outside in the direction of the underground. In addition, the bead advantageously achieves that the interior of the dustbin can be filled to about 2/3, even if the dustbin has tilted on the ground.

Durch den offenen Winkel, der zwischen der Rampe und der Außenseite des Kehreimers verläuft, ist zudem eine stabile Standposition des Kehreimers und der Rampe und zum anderen eine hohe Biegefestigkeit erreicht, so dass der Kehreimer und die Rampe selbst bei einer auftretenden unbeabsichtigten Belastung nicht auseinanderbrechen, da sich die Rampe biegeelastisch bewegt.The open angle that runs between the ramp and the outside of the dustbin also means that the dustbin and the ramp can stand in a stable position and, on the other hand, a high level of bending strength is achieved, so that the dustbin and the ramp do not break apart even if an unintentional load occurs, because the ramp moves elastically.

In der Zeichnung ist ein erfindungsgemäßer Kehreimer dargestellt, der nachfolgend erläutert ist. Im Einzelnen zeigt:

  • Figur 1 einen Kehreimer mit einer an diesen angeforderten Rampe, in perspektivischer Ansicht,
  • Figur 2 den Kehreimer gemäß Figur 1, im umgekippten Zustand, um diesen mit Abfallprodukten befüllen zu können,
  • Figur 3a einen vergrößerten Ausschnitt des Kehreimer gemäß Figur 1, im Bereich X und
  • Figur 3b der Kehreimer gemäß Figur 3a, im Schnitt.
In the drawing, a dustbin according to the invention is shown, which is explained below. In detail shows:
  • figure 1 a dustbin with a ramp requested on it, in a perspective view,
  • figure 2 according to the dustbin figure 1 , in the overturned state in order to be able to fill it with waste products,
  • Figure 3a according to an enlarged section of the dustbin figure 1 , in the range X and
  • Figure 3b the dustbin according to Figure 3a , on average.

Aus den Figuren 1, 2, 3a sowie 3b ist ein Kehreimer 1 zu entnehmen, der mit Abfallprodukten 7, beispielsweise in Form von Blättern, Papier, Haaren, Bauschutt oder dgl. befüllt werden kann, um diese Abfallprodukte 7 von einem Untergrund 2 zeitsparend aufzunehmen und in eine größere Abfalltonne zu überführen.From the figures 1 , 2 , 3a and 3b a dustbin 1 can be seen, which can be filled with waste products 7, for example in the form of leaves, paper, hair, building rubble or the like, in order to save time by picking up these waste products 7 from an underground 2 and transferring them to a larger waste bin.

Der Kehreimer 1 weist eine umlaufende Wand 3 auf, durch die das Innere des Kehreimer 1 eingeschlossen ist. Zwischen der Wand 3 ist ein Boden 8 vorgesehen, der somit gegenüberliegend zu einer Einzelöffnung 6 verläuft. Im Bereich der Einzelöffnung 6 ist eine nach außen abstehende Rampe 11 angeformt. Der von dem Kehreimer 1 und der Rampe 11 eingeschlossene Winkel α ist schematisch in den Figuren wiedergegeben und kann zwischen 110 und 170° liegen. Durch einen derart bemessenen offenen Winkel α ist demnach eine hohe Standsicherheit des Kehreimer 1 und der Rampe 11 erreicht, da sowohl der Kehreimer 1 als auch die Rampe 11 auf dem Untergrund 2 aufliegen und die jeweiligen Auflagebereiche entsprechend voneinander beabstandet sind. Zudem ist die mit der Bezugsziffer 12 versehene Stirnseite der Rampe 11 als Auflagefläche 13 anzusehen. Des Weiteren ist an der Außenseite 5 der Wand 3 des Kehreimers 1 eine plan ausgestaltete Auflagefläche 14 angearbeitet und die plane Stirnseite 12 und deren Auflagefläche 13 sowie die Auflagefläche 14 des Kehreimers 1 verlaufen koaxial oder fluchtend zueinander, so dass der Kehreimer 1 in seiner umgekippten Position über die Auflagefläche 14 und die Rampe 11 über deren Auflagefläche 13 auf dem Untergrund 2 aufliegt. Selbst wenn daher ein Tritt oder ein Stoß gegen den Kehreimer 1 oder die Rampe 11 unbeabsichtigter Weise erfolgen sollte, rollt der Kehreimer 1 nicht weg und das in diesen eingefügte Abfallprodukt 7 rutscht nicht aus dem Kehreimer 1 nach außen.The dustbin 1 has a peripheral wall 3 through which the inside of the dustbin 1 is enclosed. A floor 8 is provided between the wall 3 and thus runs opposite an individual opening 6 . In the area of the individual opening 6, an outwardly protruding ramp 11 is formed. The one from the dustbin 1 and The angle α included in the ramp 11 is shown schematically in the figures and can be between 110 and 170°. A high degree of stability of the dustbin 1 and the ramp 11 is therefore achieved by such a dimensioned open angle α, since both the dustbin 1 and the ramp 11 rest on the substrate 2 and the respective contact areas are spaced apart accordingly. In addition, the face of the ramp 11 provided with the reference number 12 is to be regarded as the bearing surface 13 . Furthermore, on the outside 5 of the wall 3 of the dustbin 1 there is a planar supporting surface 14 and the plane end face 12 and its supporting surface 13 as well as the supporting surface 14 of the dustbin 1 run coaxially or in alignment with one another, so that the dustbin 1 is in its tilted position rests on the support surface 14 and the ramp 11 on the support surface 13 on the substrate 2. Therefore, even if the dustbin 1 or the ramp 11 is inadvertently kicked or hit, the dustbin 1 will not roll away and the waste product 7 inserted into it will not slide out of the dustbin 1 to the outside.

Um den Kehreimer 1 anheben, absenken, umkippen oder ausschütten zu können, ist an diesem ein Haltegriff 15 angeformt, der als Uförmiges Profil ausgebildet ist. Der Haltegriff 15 ist gegenüberliegend zu der Rampe 11 vorgesehen, so dass der Kehreimer 1 um eine virtuelle Schwenkachse gekippt werden kann, um das in diesem eingefügte Abfallprodukt 7 über die Rampe 11 in eine Abfalltonne einfüllen zu können.In order to be able to raise, lower, tip over or pour out the dustbin 1, a handle 15, which is designed as a U-shaped profile, is integrally formed on it. The handle 15 is provided opposite the ramp 11 so that the dustbin 1 can be tilted about a virtual pivot axis in order to be able to fill the waste product 7 inserted into it via the ramp 11 into a rubbish bin.

Um zu verhindern, dass das einfüllte Abfallprodukt 7 seitlich neben der Rampe 11 fällt, ist an dieser jeweils eine Wange 16 angeformt, die in das Innere des Kehreimers 1 gerichtet ist. Folglich verhindern die seitlich und parallel zueinander verlaufenden Wangen 16, dass das einzufüllende Abfallprodukt 7 seitlich neben die Rampe 11 gelangen kann, sondern vielmehr in das Innere des Kehreimers 1 geleitet ist.In order to prevent the waste product 7 that has been filled in from falling laterally next to the ramp 11 , a cheek 16 is formed on it, which is directed towards the interior of the dustbin 1 . Consequently, the cheeks 16 running laterally and parallel to one another prevent the waste product 7 to be filled in from being able to get laterally next to the ramp 11, but rather being guided into the interior of the dustbin 1.

Zwischen der Rampe 11 und dem Kehreimer 1 ist ein Wulst 17 in Form einer konvex gekrümmten Erhebung vorgesehen, so dass das in dem Inneren des Kehreimers 1 bereits eingefügte Abfallprodukt nicht ohne weiteres über diesen Wulst 17 zurück auf die Rampe 11 gelangen kann.A bead 17 in the form of a convexly curved elevation is provided between the ramp 11 and the dustbin 1 , so that the waste product already inserted inside the dustbin 1 cannot easily get back onto the ramp 11 via this bead 17 .

Die Standsicherheit des Kehreimers 1 ist im aufgerichteten Zustand dadurch verbessert, dass der Boden 8 gemäß Figur 3a und 3b beabstandet von dem Untergrund 2 verläuft, da umlaufend an dem Boden 8 ein Bund 18 angeformt ist, der als Auflagering für den Kehreimer 1 dient.The stability of the dustbin 1 is improved in the erected state in that the bottom 8 according to Figure 3a and 3b runs at a distance from the base 2, since a collar 18 is formed circumferentially on the base 8 and serves as a support ring for the dustbin 1.

Seitlich neben dem Boden 8 verläuft demnach eine Rippe, die als Standfläche anzusehen ist. Zudem weist der Kehreimer 1 unterhalb einer mittleren Ebene 22, die durch die Hälfte der Distanzen des Kehreimers 1 und der Rampe 11 gebildet ist oberhalb der mittleren Ebene 22. Folglich ist dem Untergrund 2 ein Schwerpunkt 21 zugewandt, der von der Summe der Materialanhäufungen des Kehreimers 1 und der Rampe 11 gebildet ist. Aufgrund des dem Untergrund 2 zugewandten niedrigen Schwerpunktes 21 des Gesamtgebildes aus Kehreimer 1 und Rampe 11 steht der Kehreimer 1 sicher auf dem Untergrund 2.Accordingly, a rib runs laterally next to the base 8, which is to be regarded as a standing surface. In addition, the dustbin 1 points below a central plane 22, which is formed by half the distances between the dustbin 1 and the ramp 11 above the central plane 22. Consequently, a focus 21 faces the subsoil 2, which is determined by the sum of the accumulations of material in the dustbin 1 and the ramp 11 is formed. Due to the low center of gravity 21 of the overall structure of dustbin 1 and ramp 11 facing the underground 2, the dustbin 1 stands securely on the underground 2.

Die Längsachse 23, auf der der Schwerpunkt 21 liegt und die mittlere Ebene 22 dazu senkrecht verläuft, kann in zwei unterschiedliche Positionen überführt sein, nämlich einerseits, dass die Längsachse 23 senkrecht zu dem Untergrund 2 und andererseits geneigt zu diesem verläuft, wie dies insbesondere aus Figur 2 ersichtlich ist.The longitudinal axis 23, on which the center of gravity 21 lies and the middle plane 22 runs perpendicular to it, can be converted into two different positions, namely that the longitudinal axis 23 runs perpendicular to the substrate 2 on the one hand and on the other hand inclined to it, as is shown in particular figure 2 is evident.

Der Kehreimer 1, die Rampe 11 und der an dem Kehreimer 1 angeformte Haltegriff 15 sind aus dem identischen Werkstoff in einem Kunststoffspritzgussverfahren hergestellt, so dass das gesamte Gebilde aus Kehreimer 1, Rampe 11 und Haltegriff 15 einstimmig sind.The dustbin 1, the ramp 11 and the handle 15 formed on the dustbin 1 are made of the same material in a plastic injection molding process, so that the entire structure of the dustbin 1, the ramp 11 and the handle 15 are unified.

An der Stirnseite 12 der Rampe 11 kann eine Gummilippe vorgesehen sein, um die einzukehrenden Abfallprodukte unmittelbar auf die Rampe 11 zu leiten, so dass diese nicht zwischen der Rampe 11 und den Untergrund 2 gelangen. Zudem wird der Kehreimer 1 und die Rampe 11 beim Auftreffen eines Besens automatisch geringfügig in Kehrrichtung verrutscht, so dass die Stirnseite 12 über den Untergrund 2 rutscht und die Abfallprodukte 7 somit ständig räumlich vor der Rampe 11 platziert sind. Der Öffnungswinkel α zwischen der Außenseite 14 des Kehreimes 1 und der Rampe 11 gibt den Neigungswinkel α des Kehreimers 1 in gekipptem Zustand vor.A rubber lip can be provided on the end face 12 of the ramp 11 in order to direct the waste products to be swept up directly onto the ramp 11 so that they do not get between the ramp 11 and the subsoil 2 . In addition, the dustbin 1 and the ramp 11 automatically slip slightly in the sweeping direction when a broom hits them, so that the end face 12 slides over the ground 2 and the waste products 7 are thus constantly spatially placed in front of the ramp 11 . The opening angle α between the outside 14 of the dustbin 1 and the ramp 11 specifies the angle of inclination α of the dustbin 1 in the tilted state.
