- a fixed frame is mounted in the lower part of the chassis and the bottom of the chassis comprises a second frame mounted in an articulated manner under the fixed frame, a return means being interposed between the fixed frame and the movable frame.
- the return means makes it easier to close the bottom.
- This container was tested to, on the one hand, temporarily store used vehicle tires and, on the other hand, empty the tires into a collection bin intended to transport them to a recycling site. This need to collect used tires exists particularly in road vehicle maintenance centers.
- the applicant sought to design a container specially adapted to temporarily store used tires and release them, once filled, into a collection bin.
- the document FR-A-3 061 899 discloses a prior art container that includes the technical features of the preamble of claim 1.
- a container designed to store used tires and release them by gravity into a skip, the container comprising a tank with an open bottom, a chassis comprising an openable floor for the tank; according to the invention, said floor comprises a frame, under which two flaps are mounted in an articulated manner, the two flaps being mounted oppositely between a closed position forming the floor for said tank and an open position in which they are oriented downwards, each flap comprising a support frame covered by a plate.
- the container is characterized in that the frame is provided with a pair of locks adapted to lock a shutter in its closed position, each lock comprising a lever which is mounted at one of its ends in an articulated manner, by a pin , on a frontal or dorsal spar constituting the frame and which projects offset from its other end, on a lateral side of the container, the two levers being connected by an operating bar, each lock comprising on the side of the axis d articulation, a cam followed by a housing shaped to receive and block a locking lug secured to a front or dorsal spar constituting said support frame of said flap, the two flaps being provided with a mechanical connection means comprising two end pieces respectively mounted in the two ends of the two front and back spars of the support frame of one shutter and which are dimensioned to fit into the two ends of the two front and back spars of the support frame of the other shutter, during the closing of the two flaps, in that the two flaps are respectively mounted in an articulated manner under the two lateral longitudinal
- Used tires are stored in the container, then when it is full, it is moved above a collection bin. By opening the two flaps, the amalgamated mass of tires falls as one unit into the bin due to the presence of the two flaps open and facing opposite each other and which guide the mass of tires into the bin. Almost all of the tires remain in the bucket, without bouncing outside of it. A larger number of used tires can be stored in the collection bin.
- the geometry of the tank is defined by side walls forming a truncated pyramid of large base facing its open bottom.
- the side walls of the tank are joined via a roof wall and the frame is provided with a door allowing access to said tank.
- the tank forms a shelter which protects the used tires from bad weather and the sun to better preserve them.
- the door allows access to the tank to store the tires in the container on demand.
- the chassis comprises rectilinear uprights fixed to the corners of the frame to surround the tank, a lifting bracket fixed to the upper parts of the uprights.
- the chassis thus makes it possible to contain the tank by protecting it from shocks and to transport the tank.
- each wall is shaped into a rim formed of two L-shaped folds which extend respectively outwards and downwards, overlapping a corresponding spar of the frame of the chassis of said container.
- Container 100 presented on the Fig. 1 is designed to, on the one hand, temporarily store used vehicle tires and, on the other hand, dump them, for example in a collection bin.
- a vehicle's tires When a vehicle's tires are worn, they should be replaced, for example, in a road vehicle maintenance center.
- Used tires can advantageously be temporarily stored by being stored in the container 100 of the invention.
- the container 100 When it is full, the container 100 is moved to a collection pit or preferably to a collection bin, then the used tires are released into said bin. The empty container is then returned to the working environment of the road vehicle maintenance center. It can also be made available outdoors.
- the container 100 is mainly made up of a rigid chassis Ch, a tank Cv.
- the tank Cv is surrounded by the chassis Ch.
- the chassis Ch is designed to carry and contain the tank Cv and it also serves to protect said tank from shocks, during the use of the container 100.
- the Ch chassis is essentially constructed with Tb tubular components preferably made of galvanized steel to resist corrosion. It is preferably manufactured with hollow tubes of square section.
- the chassis Ch comprises a frame Cd, on which are fixed at its corners uprights Mt which extend upwards in the position of use of the container 100 to surround the tank Cv, two flaps Vt1 and Vt2 arranged under the frame Cd, a Pt bracket fixed on the upper parts of the Mt uprights.
- the Mt uprights are rectilinear.
- the Cd frame has a square or rectangular geometry. Four uprights Mt1-Mt4 are fixed to the four corners of the Cd frame.
- the Mt uprights converge from the top, that is to say that the perimeter of a fictitious frame bringing together the four upper ends of the Mt uprights is smaller than the perimeter of the Cd frame.
- the Cd frame is made up of four L beams assembled at their corners by angle irons. Each angle is secured to the lower end of a corresponding Mt upright.
- the Ch chassis is defined by a front side facing forward on this Fig. 2 , a dorsal side and which are joined by two lateral sides.
- the frame of a Po door is fixed in the front side of the Ch frame.
- a Po door is placed in the frame.
- the Mt uprights which form the dorsal side and the two lateral sides are joined by connecting Tv crosspieces.
- the Tv crosspieces are arranged horizontally, in the position of use of the container 100.
- the Tv crosspieces joining the Mt uprights on the two lateral sides are assembled by removable connections to facilitate the construction of the container 100.
- the Pt jib is designed to allow the container 100 to be lifted to transport it, in particular, above a collection pit or a collection bin.
- the Pt stem includes, on the Fig. 2 , a beam P fixed at its two ends, via bolted flanges, to two hoops Ac.
- Each arch Ac is fixed at its two ends to the tops of a pair of uprights Mt1, Mt2, Mt3, Mt4, the two pairs of uprights Mt being preferably arranged opposite each other.
- Each Ac hoop is advantageously manufactured in a curved tube, as appears on this Fig. 2 .
- the attachment between the Ac hoops and their corresponding Mt uprights is carried out by welding. Gussets also welded between the tops of the Mt uprights and the ends of the Ac arches reinforce the fixing.
- a lifting ring An is fixed to the middle of the beam P to allow a lifting machine, such as a crane truck, to lift and move the container 100.
- a disc can be fixed to the base of the lifting ring An so that the carrier equipped with a grapple can grasp said disc and lift the container.
- the frame of the door Po comprises two bars fixed parallel between an arch Ac and a corresponding spar L constituting the front side of the frame Cd.
- the Cv tank is made of a plastic material and more precisely of polyethylene and preferably of high density polyethylene (PEHD) by a rotational molding process. It is made in one piece, that is to say it is in one piece. This material is recyclable.
- PEHD high density polyethylene
- the tank of the invention thus contributes to the development of the circular economy. We can also carry out thermal recycling of polyethylene.
- the thickness of the tank is approximately 8 mm.
- the tank Cv takes place in the chassis Ch.
- the tank Cv is set back from the sides of the metal frame Ch which then serves as a means of protecting the tank against impacts.
- the tank Cv is formed of an envelope which is defined, by side walls, four in number on this Fig. 3 , P1-P4, delimiting the perimeter of the tank Cv and a roof wall P5, concave seen from the inside of said tank.
- the roof wall P5 joins the side walls P1-P4 in a watertight manner.
- the tank Cv has no bottom wall between its four side walls P 1-P4.
- the side walls P1-P4 are generally flat apart from reliefs intended to stiffen them. Recesses Rf are also formed in the walls P1-P4 by being positioned to receive the crosspieces constituting the container chassis, to limit the widening of the tank Cv filled with tires.
- Recesses are also formed in the four corners of the Cv tank, in which the four uprights of the container frame can be placed to protect the Cv tank from impacts.
- each wall P1-P4 is shaped into a rim Rb formed by two L-shaped folds which extend respectively outwards and downwards.
- Each edge can thus overlap a corresponding spar which constitutes the frame of the container chassis. There is thus no protruding edge in the tank at the level of its open bottom and which would be likely to hinder the release of used tires.
- a passage Ps is made through the wall P4, to be positioned opposite the door of the frame constituting the container.
- two movable flaps Vt1 and Vt2 are arranged under the frame Cd to, on the one hand, serve as a floor by supporting the mass of used tires contained in the tank and, on the other hand, allow by the opening of the two flaps Vt1 and Vt2, the release of used tires, for example in a collection bin placed under the container.
- the two flaps Vt1 and Vt2 are mounted movably between a closed position, visible on the Fig. 4 , where they form a floor to the tank Cv by being arranged in a coplanar manner and an open position, visible on the Fig. 5 , in which they open the bottom of the tank Cv while being oriented downwards to allow the release of used tires.
- each flap Vt is mounted in an articulated manner under a lateral spar L constituting the frame Cd via at least one axis frame Cd.
- the two flaps Vt1 and Vt2 are thus arranged in an opposite manner to guide vertically, in their open position, the descent of the pile of tires stored in the tank Cv into the collection bin.
- each flap Vt is preferentially mounted on a corresponding lateral spar L, via two coaxial axes X.
- Each shutter Vt comprises a support frame Cs reinforced with a transverse bar, on which is fixed a plate Pq forming a floor part, in the closed position of said shutter.
- the second pair of clevises Cp2 is nested in the first pair of clevises Cp1.
- the open bottom of the tank Cv opens right through into the open position of the two flaps Vt allowing a direct fall of the used tires.
- Each shutter Vt is equipped with a return means Mr designed to limit the amplitude of the opening movement of said shutter from its closed position to its release position, to an angular value a1 (for the shutter Vt1) and a2 (for the Vt2 flap) which is less than 90°, as can be seen on the Fig. 5 , to allow the folding of said flap towards its closed position by simply placing the container on the ground.
- the Mr return means is used to facilitate the folding of the two Vt flaps.
- the Mr return means also serves to prevent flapping Vt towards the end of its opening and which could damage the walls of the receiving bin.
- this return means Mr is according to the invention made up of at least one torsion spring mounted on a corresponding axis The stiffness of this spring is calculated so that the mass of the tires can, however, during their release, open the two flaps to 90°.
- the container 100 is equipped with a pair of Vr locks designed to block the two flaps Vt1 and Vt2 in their closed position.
- Two locks are used, one is located on the front side of the container and the other is located on its dorsal side.
- the two locks are used to block a first shutter, while the second shutter is held closed by the first shutter.
- Each lock Vr is formed of a lever Lv which is mounted at one end in an articulated manner, by an axis X2, on a front or dorsal spar L of the frame Cd and which projects offset from its other end on a lateral side of container 100.
- the two levers Lv are joined by an operating bar Bm, which serves to operate the two locks Vr between a locking position of the two flaps Vt arranged in their closed position and a position unlocking allowing the free opening of the two Vt flaps under the effect of gravity, towards their release position.
- the two levers Lv are arranged horizontally in the locking position of the lock Vr and rest by gravity respectively on two stops Bu fixed on two longitudinal members L arranged opposite and constituting the frame Cd.
- the lock Vr comprises on the side of the axis Cs support of at least one Vt flap.
- the Gt lug is preferably a solid cylinder and the housing Lg has a complementary geometry defined by a concave wall in the shape of a portion of a cylinder.
- the planes of the side walls P1-P4 of the tank Cv form a truncated pyramid with a large base located at the level of the opening of its open bottom and a small base positioned at the base of the roof P5.
- the two ends of the two frontal and dorsal spars L2' constituting the support frame Cs of a shutter and here the shutter Vt1 are respectively provided with two end pieces Bt dimensioned to fit into the two hollow ends of the two frontal and dorsal spars L2 ' of the other flap Vt2, during the closing of the two flaps Vt, as suggested by the arrow F.
- the two flaps Vt1, Vt2 are mechanically linked in their closed position, visible on the Fig. 4 , where they form the floor for the Cv tank, although only one flap and in this case the Vt2 flap is locked.
- cleats T are fixed transversely under the two front and back beams L2' to serve as support on the ground S for the container 100.
- At least one torsion spring Mr equipping the shutter Vt2 is more powerful than the spring of the other shutter Vt1 so that the opening angle a2 of the shutter Vt2 can be smaller than the opening angle a1 of the shutter Vt1 .
- the two end pieces Bt of the flap Vt1 can then certainly penetrate into the ends of the two front and dorsal spars L2' of the flap Vt2 during the closing of the two flaps.
- the construction of the container 100 of the invention is carried out in the following manner.
- the operation of the container 100 of the invention is as follows.
- the container 100 is placed on the ground, for example in a center of fitting of tires on road vehicles.
- the door Po of the container 100 is opened and, as the tires are replaced, the used tires are placed on the floor of the container and preferably stacked until the tank Cv is filled. We close the Po door.
- the used tires can thus be transported in the container 100 of the invention to a collection bin of relatively large capacity which can collect them and transport them, in particular, to a recycling site.
- the container 100 is lifted using a lifting device and transported above the collection bin.
- the driver of the lifting machine lowers the container 100 so that he can press the operating bar Bm of the two locks Vr on the edge of a wall of the bin.
- the arrow V suggests on the Fig. 5 raising the levers Lv.
- the two Vr locks then release the two Gt lugs of the Vt2 flap.
- the mass of tires stored on the floor immediately opens the two Vt flaps and the group of tires falls as one unit into the bin, being guided vertically by the two Vt flaps.
- the mutually adhering tires which are stored in the tank Cv form a compact assembly which also adheres against the side walls P1-P4 of the tank Cv.
- these inclined side walls of the tank Cv cause the mass of used tires to detach immediately after opening the flaps.
- the presence of two flaps arranged opposite each other channels the descent of the pile of tires into the dumpster. The tires do not jump out of the body.
- the driver then places the emptied container 100 on the ground S, the cleats T slide on the ground S and the end pieces Bt mutually secure the two flaps Vt.
- the two lugs Gt lift the two cams Cm of the two bolts Vt and take place in the two housings Lg.
- the two levers Lv lower and force the two cams Cm to lock the two lugs Gt, thus maintaining the two flaps in their closed position where they form a floor in the tank.
- Container 100 is ready to be used again.
- the container 100 of the invention allows, firstly, to temporarily store used tires, then secondly, to release them, without rebound and without fail, above a collection bin.

Description
La présente invention concerne un conteneur pour stocker des pneumatiques usagés et les larguer dans une benne.The present invention relates to a container for storing used tires and dropping them into a skip.
Le demandeur de la présente invention est l'auteur d'une demande de brevet publiée sous le n°
Un cadre fixe est monté dans la partie basse du châssis et le fond du châssis comprend un second cadre monté de manière articulée sous le cadre fixe, un moyen de rappel étant interposé entre le cadre fixe et le cadre mobile. Le moyen de rappel facilite la fermeture du fond.A fixed frame is mounted in the lower part of the chassis and the bottom of the chassis comprises a second frame mounted in an articulated manner under the fixed frame, a return means being interposed between the fixed frame and the movable frame. The return means makes it easier to close the bottom.
Ce conteneur a été testé pour, d'une part, stocker temporairement des pneumatiques usagés de véhicules et, d'autre part, vidanger les pneumatiques dans une benne de collecte destinée à les transporter vers un site de recyclage. Ce besoin de collecte des pneumatiques usagés existe notamment dans les centres d'entretien des véhicules routiers.This container was tested to, on the one hand, temporarily store used vehicle tires and, on the other hand, empty the tires into a collection bin intended to transport them to a recycling site. This need to collect used tires exists particularly in road vehicle maintenance centers.
En utilisant ce conteneur dans cette application, le demandeur a constaté que des pneumatiques usagés s'échappent en dehors de la benne par rebondissement, pendant l'ouverture du fond du châssis du conteneur ou qu'ils forment un amas qui reste coincé dans la cuve car les pneumatiques adhèrent mutuellement et adhèrent également contre les parois de la cuve.By using this container in this application, the applicant has observed that used tires escape outside the bin by bouncing, while the bottom of the container frame is opened or that they form a pile which remains stuck in the tank. because the tires adhere to each other and also adhere to the walls of the tank.
Partant de ce constat, le demandeur a cherché à concevoir un conteneur spécialement adapté pour stocker temporairement des pneumatiques usagés et les larguer, une fois rempli, dans une benne de collecte.Based on this observation, the applicant sought to design a container specially adapted to temporarily store used tires and release them, once filled, into a collection bin.
Le document
A cet effet, est proposé un conteneur conçu pour stocker des pneumatiques usagés et les larguer par gravité dans une benne, le conteneur comprenant une cuve à fond ouvert, un châssis comprenant un plancher ouvrable pour la cuve; selon l'invention, ledit plancher comprend un cadre, sous lequel sont montés de manière articulée, deux volets, les deux volets étant montés de manière opposée entre une position de fermeture formant le plancher pour ladite cuve et une position d'ouverture dans laquelle ils sont orientés vers le bas, chaque volet comprenant un cadre support recouvert par une plaque. Le conteneur est caractérisé en ce que le châssis est pourvu d'une paire de verrous conçus pour bloquer un volet dans sa position de fermeture, chaque verrou comprenant un levier qui est monté à l'une de ses extrémités de manière articulée, par un axe, sur un longeron frontal ou dorsal constitutif du cadre et qui fait saillie en déport de son autre extrémité, d'un côté latéral du conteneur, les deux leviers étant reliés par une barre de manoeuvre, chaque verrou comprenant du côté de l'axe d'articulation, une came suivie d'un logement conformé pour réceptionner et bloquer un ergot de verrouillage solidaire d'un longeron frontal ou dorsal constitutif dudit cadre support dudit volet, les deux volets étant pourvus d'un moyen de liaison mécanique comprenant deux embouts respectivement montés dans les deux extrémités des deux longerons frontal et dorsal du cadre support d'un volet et qui sont dimensionnés pour s'emboîter dans les deux extrémités des deux longerons frontal et dorsal du cadre support de l'autre volet, pendant la fermeture des deux volets, en ce que les deux volets sont respectivement montés de manière articulée sous les deux longerons latéraux constitutifs du cadre par l'intermédiaire d'au moins un axe, chaque axe étant monté au travers d'une première paire de chapes fixées sous la face inférieure dudit longeron latéral du cadre et au travers d'une seconde paire de chapes fixées latéralement sur un longeron latéral constitutif du cadre support, où la seconde paire de chapes est imbriquée dans la première paire de chapes et en ce qu'un ressort de torsion est monté sur l'axe entre chaque seconde paire de chapes.For this purpose, a container is proposed designed to store used tires and release them by gravity into a skip, the container comprising a tank with an open bottom, a chassis comprising an openable floor for the tank; according to the invention, said floor comprises a frame, under which two flaps are mounted in an articulated manner, the two flaps being mounted oppositely between a closed position forming the floor for said tank and an open position in which they are oriented downwards, each flap comprising a support frame covered by a plate. The container is characterized in that the frame is provided with a pair of locks adapted to lock a shutter in its closed position, each lock comprising a lever which is mounted at one of its ends in an articulated manner, by a pin , on a frontal or dorsal spar constituting the frame and which projects offset from its other end, on a lateral side of the container, the two levers being connected by an operating bar, each lock comprising on the side of the axis d articulation, a cam followed by a housing shaped to receive and block a locking lug secured to a front or dorsal spar constituting said support frame of said flap, the two flaps being provided with a mechanical connection means comprising two end pieces respectively mounted in the two ends of the two front and back spars of the support frame of one shutter and which are dimensioned to fit into the two ends of the two front and back spars of the support frame of the other shutter, during the closing of the two flaps, in that the two flaps are respectively mounted in an articulated manner under the two lateral longitudinal members constituting the frame via at least one axis, each axis being mounted through a first pair of yokes fixed under the face lower side of said lateral spar of the frame and through a second pair of yokes fixed laterally on a lateral spar constituting the support frame, where the second pair of yokes is nested in the first pair of yokes and in that a torsion spring is mounted on the axle between each second pair of yokes.
Les pneumatiques usagés sont stockés dans le conteneur, puis lorsqu'il est plein, on le déplace au-dessus d'une benne de collecte. En ouvrant les deux volets, la masse amalgamée de pneumatiques tombe d'un bloc dans la benne du fait de la présence des deux volets ouverts et tournés en vis-à-vis et qui guident la masse de pneumatiques jusque dans la benne. La quasi-totalité des pneumatiques demeure dans la benne, sans rebondir à l'extérieur de celle-ci. On peut stocker un plus grand nombre de pneumatiques usagés dans la benne de collecte.Used tires are stored in the container, then when it is full, it is moved above a collection bin. By opening the two flaps, the amalgamated mass of tires falls as one unit into the bin due to the presence of the two flaps open and facing opposite each other and which guide the mass of tires into the bin. Almost all of the tires remain in the bucket, without bouncing outside of it. A larger number of used tires can be stored in the collection bin.
Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, la géométrie de la cuve est définie par des parois latérales formant un tronc de pyramide de grande base tournée vers son fond ouvert.According to an additional characteristic of the invention, the geometry of the tank is defined by side walls forming a truncated pyramid of large base facing its open bottom.
La masse de pneumatiques en contact avec les faces intérieures des parois latérales se décolle immédiatement desdites parois latérales de la cuve dès l'ouverture des deux volets qui initie le largage.The mass of tires in contact with the interior faces of the side walls immediately detaches from said side walls of the tank as soon as the two flaps are opened which initiates the release.
Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, les parois latérales de la cuve sont réunies par l'intermédiaire d'une paroi de toit et le châssis est pourvu d'une porte permettant un accès dans ladite cuve.According to an additional characteristic of the invention, the side walls of the tank are joined via a roof wall and the frame is provided with a door allowing access to said tank.
La cuve forme un abri qui protège les pneumatiques usagés des intempéries et du soleil pour mieux les conserver. La porte permet un accès à la cuve pour stocker à la demande les pneumatiques dans le conteneur.The tank forms a shelter which protects the used tires from bad weather and the sun to better preserve them. The door allows access to the tank to store the tires in the container on demand.
Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, le châssis comprend des montants rectilignes fixés aux encoignures du cadre pour entourer la cuve, une potence de levage fixée sur les parties hautes des montants.According to an additional characteristic of the invention, the chassis comprises rectilinear uprights fixed to the corners of the frame to surround the tank, a lifting bracket fixed to the upper parts of the uprights.
Le châssis permet ainsi de contenir la cuve en la protégeant des chocs et de transporter la cuve.The chassis thus makes it possible to contain the tank by protecting it from shocks and to transport the tank.
Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, le bord inférieur de chaque paroi est conformé en un rebord formé de deux plis en forme de L est qui s'étendent respectivement vers l'extérieur et vers le bas, en chevauchant un longeron correspondant du cadre du châssis dudit conteneur.According to an additional characteristic of the invention, the lower edge of each wall is shaped into a rim formed of two L-shaped folds which extend respectively outwards and downwards, overlapping a corresponding spar of the frame of the chassis of said container.
Il n'y a ainsi aucun rebord saillant dans la cuve au niveau de son fond ouvert et qui serait susceptible d'entraver le largage des pneumatiques usagés.There is thus no protruding edge in the tank at its open bottom which could hinder the release of used tires.

Le conteneur 100 présenté sur la
Le conteneur 100 est constitué principalement d'un châssis rigide Ch, d'une cuve Cv. La cuve Cv est entourée par le châssis Ch. Le châssis Ch est conçu pour porter et contenir la cuve Cv et il sert aussi à protéger ladite cuve des chocs, pendant l'utilisation du conteneur 100.The
Le châssis Ch est construit essentiellement avec des composants tubulaires Tb fabriqués préférentiellement en acier galvanisé pour résister à la corrosion. Il est fabriqué préférentiellement avec des tubes creux de section carrée.The Ch chassis is essentially constructed with Tb tubular components preferably made of galvanized steel to resist corrosion. It is preferably manufactured with hollow tubes of square section.

Les montants Mt convergent par le haut, c'est-à-dire que le périmètre d'un cadre fictif réunissant les quatre extrémités hautes des montants Mt est plus petit que le périmètre du cadre Cd.The Mt uprights converge from the top, that is to say that the perimeter of a fictitious frame bringing together the four upper ends of the Mt uprights is smaller than the perimeter of the Cd frame.
Le cadre Cd est constitué de quatre longerons L assemblés à leurs encoignures par des cornières. Chaque cornière est solidaire de l'extrémité basse d'un montant Mt correspondant.The Cd frame is made up of four L beams assembled at their corners by angle irons. Each angle is secured to the lower end of a corresponding Mt upright.
Le châssis Ch est défini par un côté frontal tourné vers l'avant sur cette
Les montants Mt qui forment le côté dorsal et les deux côtés latéraux sont réunis par des traverses Tv de liaison. Les traverses Tv sont disposées horizontalement, dans la position d'utilisation du conteneur 100. Les traverses Tv réunissant les montants Mt des deux côtés latéraux sont assemblées par des liaisons démontables pour faciliter la construction du conteneur 100.The Mt uprights which form the dorsal side and the two lateral sides are joined by connecting Tv crosspieces. The Tv crosspieces are arranged horizontally, in the position of use of the

Un anneau de levage An est fixé sur le milieu de la poutre P pour permettre à un engin de levage, tel qu'un camion grue, de soulever et de déplacer le conteneur 100. Un disque, non représenté, peut être fixé à la base de l'anneau de levage An afin que l'engin porteur équipé d'un grappin puisse saisir ledit disque et soulever le conteneur.A lifting ring An is fixed to the middle of the beam P to allow a lifting machine, such as a crane truck, to lift and move the
Le châssis de la porte Po comprend deux barres fixées parallèlement entre un arceau Ac et un longeron L correspondant constitutif du côté frontal cadre Cd.The frame of the door Po comprises two bars fixed parallel between an arch Ac and a corresponding spar L constituting the front side of the frame Cd.
La cuve Cv est fabriquée dans une matière plastique et plus précisément en polyéthylène et préférentiellement en polyéthylène haute densité (PEHD) par un procédé de rotomoulage. Elle est fabriquée d'un seul tenant c'est-à-dire qu'elle est monobloc. Cette matière est recyclable. La cuve étant arrivée en fin de vie, le polyéthylène qui la constitue peut-être collecté, puis transformé en granulés qui vont servir à la fabrication de nouveaux produits en polyéthylène. La cuve de l'invention participe ainsi au développement de l'économie circulaire. On peut également procéder au recyclage thermique du polyéthylène.The Cv tank is made of a plastic material and more precisely of polyethylene and preferably of high density polyethylene (PEHD) by a rotational molding process. It is made in one piece, that is to say it is in one piece. This material is recyclable. The tank having reached the end of its life, the polyethylene which constitutes it can be collected, then transformed into granules which will be used in the manufacture of new polyethylene products. The tank of the invention thus contributes to the development of the circular economy. We can also carry out thermal recycling of polyethylene.
Dans un mode de fabrication intéressant, l'épaisseur de la cuve est d'environ 8 mm.In an interesting manufacturing method, the thickness of the tank is approximately 8 mm.
Sur la
Sur la
La cuve Cv est dépourvue de paroi de fond entre ses quatre parois latérales P 1-P4.The tank Cv has no bottom wall between its four side walls P 1-P4.
Les parois latérales P1-P4 sont globalement planes hormis des reliefs destinés à les rigidifier. Des renfoncements Rf sont également formés dans les parois P1-P4 en étant positionnés pour réceptionner les traverses constitutives du châssis du conteneur, pour limiter l'élargissement de la cuve Cv remplie de pneumatiques.The side walls P1-P4 are generally flat apart from reliefs intended to stiffen them. Recesses Rf are also formed in the walls P1-P4 by being positioned to receive the crosspieces constituting the container chassis, to limit the widening of the tank Cv filled with tires.
Des renfoncements sont également formés dans les quatre encoignures de la cuve Cv, dans lesquels peuvent prendre place les quatre montants du châssis du conteneur pour protéger la cuve Cv des chocs.Recesses are also formed in the four corners of the Cv tank, in which the four uprights of the container frame can be placed to protect the Cv tank from impacts.
La cuve repose par les bords libres inférieurs de ses quatre parois P1-P4 sur le cadre, lorsqu'elle est disposée dans le châssis du conteneur. De manière plus précise, le bord inférieur de chaque paroi P1-P4 est conformé en un rebord Rb formé de deux plis en forme de L et qui s'étendent respectivement vers l'extérieur et vers le bas. Chaque rebord peut ainsi chevaucher un longeron correspondant et qui est constitutif du cadre du châssis du conteneur. Il n'y a ainsi aucun rebord saillant dans la cuve au niveau de son fond ouvert et qui serait susceptible d'entraver le largage des pneumatiques usagés.The tank rests by the lower free edges of its four walls P1-P4 on the frame, when it is placed in the container frame. More precisely, the lower edge of each wall P1-P4 is shaped into a rim Rb formed by two L-shaped folds which extend respectively outwards and downwards. Each edge can thus overlap a corresponding spar which constitutes the frame of the container chassis. There is thus no protruding edge in the tank at the level of its open bottom and which would be likely to hinder the release of used tires.
Un passage Ps est réalisé au travers de la paroi P4, pour être positionné en vis-à-vis de la porte du châssis constitutif du conteneur.A passage Ps is made through the wall P4, to be positioned opposite the door of the frame constituting the container.

Chaque volet Vt comprend un cadre support Cs renforcé d'une barre transversale, sur lequel est fixée une plaque Pq formant une partie de plancher, dans la position de fermeture dudit volet.Each shutter Vt comprises a support frame Cs reinforced with a transverse bar, on which is fixed a plate Pq forming a floor part, in the closed position of said shutter.
De manière plus précise, et en référence à la
Chaque volet Vt est équipé d'un moyen de rappel Mr conçu pour limiter l'amplitude du mouvement d'ouverture dudit volet depuis sa position de fermeture vers sa position de largage, à une valeur angulaire a1 (pour le volet Vt1) et a2 (pour le volet Vt2) qui est inférieure à 90°, comme cela est visible sur la

Deux verrous sont utilisés, l'un est situé sur le côté frontal du conteneur et l'autre est situé sur son côté dorsal. Les deux verrous servent à bloquer un premier volet, tandis que le second volet est maintenu fermé par le premier volet.Two locks are used, one is located on the front side of the container and the other is located on its dorsal side. The two locks are used to block a first shutter, while the second shutter is held closed by the first shutter.
Chaque verrou Vr est formé d'un levier Lv qui est monté à une extrémité de manière articulée, par un axe X2, sur un longeron frontal ou dorsal L du cadre Cd et qui fait saillie en déport de son autre extrémité d'un côté latéral du conteneur 100.Each lock Vr is formed of a lever Lv which is mounted at one end in an articulated manner, by an axis X2, on a front or dorsal spar L of the frame Cd and which projects offset from its other end on a lateral side of
Sur la
Les deux leviers Lv sont disposés horizontalement dans la position de verrouillage du verrou Vr et reposent par la gravité respectivement sur deux butées Bu fixées sur deux longerons L disposés en vis-à-vis et constitutifs du cadre Cd.The two levers Lv are arranged horizontally in the locking position of the lock Vr and rest by gravity respectively on two stops Bu fixed on two longitudinal members L arranged opposite and constituting the frame Cd.
Le verrou Vr comprend du côté de l'axe X2 d'articulation du levier Lv, une came Cm suivie d'un logement Lg conformé pour réceptionner et bloquer un ergot Gt de verrouillage solidaire d'un longeron frontal ou dorsal L2' constitutif du cadre support Cs d'au moins un volet Vt. L'ergot Gt est préférentiellement un cylindre plein et le logement Lg présente une géométrie complémentaire définie par une paroi concave en forme de portion de cylindre.The lock Vr comprises on the side of the axis Cs support of at least one Vt flap. The Gt lug is preferably a solid cylinder and the housing Lg has a complementary geometry defined by a concave wall in the shape of a portion of a cylinder.

Au moins un ressort de torsion Mr équipant le volet Vt2 est plus puissant que le ressort de l'autre volet Vt1 afin que l'angle d'ouverture a2 du volet Vt2 puisse être plus faible que l'angle d'ouverture a1 du volet Vt1. Les deux embouts Bt du volet Vt1 peuvent alors à coup sûr pénétrer dans les extrémités des deux longerons frontal et dorsal L2' du volet Vt2 pendant la fermeture des deux volets.At least one torsion spring Mr equipping the shutter Vt2 is more powerful than the spring of the other shutter Vt1 so that the opening angle a2 of the shutter Vt2 can be smaller than the opening angle a1 of the shutter Vt1 . The two end pieces Bt of the flap Vt1 can then certainly penetrate into the ends of the two front and dorsal spars L2' of the flap Vt2 during the closing of the two flaps.
La construction du conteneur 100 de l'invention est menée de la manière suivante. On assemble les deux cadres support Cs des deux volets Vt sous le cadre Cd et l'on monte les deux verrous Vr. On pose la cuve Cv sur le cadre Cd. On assemble les montants Mt sur le cadre Cd. On fixe les traverses Tv sur les montants Mt qui prennent place dans les renfoncements Rf. On fixe la potence Pt sur les sommets des montants Mt.The construction of the
Le fonctionnement du conteneur 100 de l'invention se présente de la manière suivante. On dépose le conteneur 100 sur le sol, par exemple dans un centre de montage de pneumatiques sur des véhicules routiers. On ouvre la porte Po du conteneur 100 et l'on dépose, au fil des remplacements des pneumatiques, les pneumatiques usagés sur le plancher du conteneur et préférentiellement en les empilant jusqu'à remplir la cuve Cv. On referme la porte Po.The operation of the
Les pneumatiques usagés peuvent ainsi être transportés dans le conteneur 100 de l'invention vers une benne de collecte de relativement grande contenance qui pourra les collecter et les acheminer, notamment, vers un site de recyclage. On soulève à cet effet le conteneur 100 à l'aide d'un engin de levage et on le transporte au-dessus de la benne de collecte. Le conducteur de l'engin de levage fait descendre le conteneur 100 de sorte qu'il puisse faire appuyer la barre de manoeuvre Bm des deux verrous Vr sur le rebord d'une paroi de la benne. La flèche V suggère sur la
Il faut noter que les pneumatiques adhérant mutuellement et qui sont stockés dans la cuve Cv forment un ensemble compact qui adhère également contre les parois latérales P1-P4 de la cuve Cv. Dans l'invention, ces parois latérales inclinées de 1a cuve Cv font que la masse de pneumatiques usagés se décolle immédiatement après l'ouverture des volets. La présence de deux volets disposés en vis-à-vis canalise la descente de l'amas de pneumatiques dans la benne. Les pneumatiques ne sautent pas à l'extérieur de la benne.It should be noted that the mutually adhering tires which are stored in the tank Cv form a compact assembly which also adheres against the side walls P1-P4 of the tank Cv. In the invention, these inclined side walls of the tank Cv cause the mass of used tires to detach immediately after opening the flaps. The presence of two flaps arranged opposite each other channels the descent of the pile of tires into the dumpster. The tires do not jump out of the body.
La masse de pneumatiques qui a été larguée de manière quasi instantanée dans la benne demeure compacte dans celle-ci. On peut stocker un plus grand nombre de pneumatiques dans la benne.The mass of tires which was dropped almost instantly into the skip remains compact in it. A larger number of tires can be stored in the skip.
Le conducteur dépose ensuite le conteneur 100 vidangé sur le sol S, les tasseaux T glissent sur le sol S et les embouts Bt viennent solidariser mutuellement les deux volets Vt. Vers la fin du mouvement de fermeture des deux volets Vt, les deux ergots Gt soulèvent les deux cames Cm des deux verrous Vt et prennent place dans les deux logements Lg. Sous l'effet de la gravité, les deux leviers Lv se rabaissent et obligent les deux cames Cm à verrouiller les deux ergots Gt maintenant ainsi les deux volets dans leur position de fermeture où ils forment un plancher dans la cuve. Le conteneur 100 est prêt à être utilisé à nouveau.The driver then places the emptied
Le conteneur 100 de l'invention permet, dans un premier temps, de stocker temporairement des pneumatiques usagés, puis dans un second temps, de les larguer, sans rebond et à coup sûr, au-dessus d'une benne de collecte.The
