Description

Dispositivo para clasificar residuos en el interior de armarios de cocinas.Device for classifying waste in the interior of kitchen cabinets.

Object of the invention

La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo para clasificar residuos en el interior de armarios de cocina, cuya evidente finalidad es la de permitir seleccionar por separado distintos tipos de residuos que normalmente se producen y originan en las viviendas o domicilios particulares.The present invention relates to a device for sorting waste inside cabinets of kitchen, whose obvious purpose is to allow selection by separate different types of waste that are normally produced and originate in homes or private homes.

Background of the invention

Actualmente se tiende a que los ciudadanos clasifiquen los residuos originados en sus viviendas, al objeto de permitir el reciclado de los mismos, o bien para el tratamiento o recuperación de determinados productos que forman parte de dichos residuos.Currently it tends to make citizens classify waste originating in their homes, in order to allow recycling thereof, either for treatment or recovery of certain products that are part of these waste.

Por tal motivo, en la vía pública existen contenedores para depositar vidrios, contenedores de cartones, contenedores de residuos o basura, que pueden ser igualmente de dos tipos, uno para plásticos y envases metálicos, y otros para residuos orgánicos, aunque todos ellos como se acaba de decir están situados en la vía pública y el ciudadano tiene que salir de su vivienda y llevar a cabo el depositado de los residuos en esos contenedores.For this reason, on public roads there are glass storage containers, cardboard containers, waste or garbage containers, which can also be two types, one for plastics and metal containers, and others for organic waste, although all of them as just said are located on public roads and the citizen has to leave their housing and carry out the deposition of waste in those containers

No obstante, el problema no reside en que el ciudadano tenga o no que salir de su vivienda para depositar cada tipo de residuo en su contenedor, sino que reside en la dificultad que se tiene en las viviendas para efectuar la clasificación, y ello como consecuencia de no existir medios que puedan disponer de una pluralidad de bolsas o contendedores distintos para otros tantos tipos de residuos (vidrio, cartones, residuos orgánicos y envases), pues como es lógico el disponer de cuatro cubos de basura o contenedores en una cocina resulta poco menos que imposible, puesto que se necesitará mucho espacio en armarios para dicho número de contenedores, y ello como consecuencia de no existir dispositivos que permitan ordenar en un mínimo volumen esas bolsas o cubos de residuos.However, the problem is not that the citizen whether or not to leave his home to deposit each type of waste in its container, but lies in the difficulty that you have in the homes to make the classification, and this as a result of not existing means that can have a plurality of different bags or containers for many others types of waste (glass, cardboard, organic waste and packaging), Well, it is logical to have four garbage cans or containers in a kitchen is little less than impossible, put that a lot of closet space will be needed for that number of containers, and this as a result of no devices that allow to order in a minimum volume those bags or cubes of waste.

Description of the invention

El dispositivo que se preconiza, ha sido concebido para resolver la problemática anteriormente expuesta, en base a una solución sencilla pero eficaz, estando previsto para ser montado en el interior de un armario o hueco situado bajo una encimera, de manera que el dispositivo incluye cuatro brazos giratorios, situados por parejas y cada pareja a distinto nivel, lo que posibilita que las parejas de brazos puedan quedar desfasados entre sí y ocupar una zona del armario, a diferente altura, ya que esos brazos son portadores en sus extremos de medios de sujeción para un aro de soporte de un cubo de basura, que evidentemente podría ser igualmente una bolsa receptora de residuos, todo ello de manera tal que esos brazos en su basculamiento o giro pueden ocupar posiciones de extracción al exterior de los cubos y efectuar su vaciado o la extracción de las bolsas contenidas en los mismos, o bien posicionarse en el interior del armario y quedar ocultos en el mueble correspondiente.The device that is recommended has been designed to solve the problem described above, in based on a simple but effective solution, being planned to be mounted inside a closet or hollow located under a countertop, so that the device includes four arms rotating, located in pairs and each couple at different levels, what which allows pairs of arms to be outdated each other and occupy an area of the closet, at a different height, since those arms are carriers at their ends of fastening means for a support ring of a garbage can, which obviously it could also be a waste receiver bag, all of such a way that those arms in their swinging or turning can occupy extraction positions outside the cubes and make their emptying or extracting the bags contained therein, or well position yourself inside the closet and be hidden in the corresponding furniture.

El montaje de los brazos soporte de los aros para los cubos, se realiza a través de una pletina vertical fijada en uno de los laterales del armario, cuya pletina presenta en sus extremos sendas alas horizontales entre las que va montado un eje sobre el que se disponen dos parejas de casquillos, con un separador intermedio, y cada casquillo dotado de un brazo radial y externo rematado en un apéndice transversal de sujeción, con facultad de desmontaje, de un aro soporte del cubo o bolsa de basura o residuos, con la funcionalidad anteriormente expuesta.The mounting of the ring support arms for the cubes, it is done through a fixed vertical plate on one of the sides of the closet, whose plate presents in its ends two horizontal wings between which an axis is mounted on which two pairs of bushings are arranged, with a intermediate spacer, and each bush provided with a radial arm and external topped in a transverse attachment appendix, with dismantling power, of a bucket support ring or garbage bag or waste, with the functionality described above.

Evidentemente, el eje portador de los casquillos y por tanto de los brazos soporte de los aros para los cubos, podrá estar formado por dos tramos acoplados telescópicamente entre sí mediante roscado, y fijarse entre la base y el techo del mueble, de manera que introduciendo esos dos tramos acoplados en el interior del armario y una vez elegida la posición definitiva, bastará con girar un sector respecto del otro para que se produzca el apriete y estabilización del eje, sin necesidad de ningún tipo de perforación en el armario, quedando en este caso intacto, ya que mediante la pletina soporte del eje es necesario fijar dicha pletina a un lateral del armario mediante tornillos pasantes por orificios establecidos en orejetas de la propia pletina.Obviously, the axle carrying the bushings and therefore from the support arms of the hoops for the cubes, you can be formed by two sections telescopically coupled to each other by threading, and fixed between the base and the ceiling of the furniture, of way that introducing those two stretches coupled inside of the closet and once the final position is chosen, it will be enough with rotate one sector with respect to the other so that tightening occurs and shaft stabilization, without the need for any drilling in the closet, remaining in this case intact, since by axis support plate it is necessary to fix said plate to a side of the cabinet with through hole screws established on lugs of the plate itself.

De esta forma se consigue tener en un reducido espacio, como puede ser un armario de encimera, cuatro cubos que permiten clasificar otros tantos tipos de residuos, cubos que van por parejas a distinta altura y ocupando, cada pareja una zona del armario, presentando éste la amplitud necesaria en profundidad para que quepan dos cubos a la misma altura sin interferirse entre si.In this way you get to have a reduced space, such as a countertop cabinet, four cubes that they allow to classify as many other types of waste, buckets that go by couples at different height and occupying, each couple an area of the cabinet, presenting this the necessary breadth in depth to that fit two cubes at the same height without interfering with each other yes.

Como se puede ver en la figura referida, el dispositivo de la invención, previsto para fijarse en la pared lateral (1) de un armario, se constituye a partir de una pletina (2) cuyos extremos presentan sendos acodamientos formando orejetas horizontales (3), una superior y otra inferior, con orificios (4) para el montaje de un eje (5) que queda sujeto mediante un tornillo (6) establecido en el orificio superior de la orejeta correspondiente (3) de la pletina (2), fijándose ésta a la pared (1) del armario a través de tornillos pasantes por pestañas (7) emergentes lateralmente de la propia pletina de soporte (2) aunque ésta pletina podría estar afectada de orificios para el paso de los tornillos de fijación a la pared (1) del armario, sin necesidad de las pestañas (7), resultando éstas mucho más cómodas a la hora de llevar a cabo la fijación.As you can see in the referred figure, the device of the invention, intended to be fixed on the wall side (1) of a closet, it is constituted from a plate (2) whose ends have two couplings forming lugs horizontal (3), one upper and one lower, with holes (4) for mounting a shaft (5) that is secured by a screw (6) established in the upper hole of the lug corresponding (3) of the plate (2), fixing it to the wall (1) of the cabinet through through screws through tabs (7) emerging laterally from the support plate itself (2) although this plate could be affected by holes for the passage of fixing screws to the wall (1) of the cabinet, without the need for the tabs (7), these being much more comfortable when it comes to carry out the fixation.

Sobre el eje (5) van montadas dos parejas de casquillos (8) y entre ellas un separador común (9) de considerable longitud, al objeto de que cada pareja de casquillos (8) queden distanciados entre sí y a distintas alturas.On the shaft (5) two pairs of bushings (8) and among them a common spacer (9) of considerable length, so that each pair of bushings (8) remain distanced from each other and at different heights.

De los casquillos (8) emergen otros tantos brazos radiales (10) rematados en espárragos o pivotes (11) para el posicionado de respectivos aros (12) dotados de una derivación lateral (13) con capuchón de encastramiento en la emergencia que determinan los espárragos o pivotes (11) correspondientes a los brazos radiales (10), de manera que esos aros (12), uno en cada brazo radial (10), constituyen el soporte para un cubo (14) destinado a recibir un determinado tipo de residuo originado o producido en una vivienda particular, de manera que al existir cuatro brazos (10) el dispositivo podrá soportar cuatro cubos (14) distintos previstos para otros tantos tipos de residuos.From the bushings (8) emerge as many radial arms (10) topped in studs or pivots (11) for the positioning of respective rings (12) provided with a branch side (13) with emergency recessing cap that determine the studs or pivots (11) corresponding to the radial arms (10), so that those rings (12), one in each radial arm (10), constitute the support for a hub (14) intended to receive a certain type of waste originated or produced in a private home, so that when existing four arms (10) the device can support four cubes (14) different planned for as many types of waste.

De acuerdo con las características mencionadas, en virtud del montaje de los brazos (10) sobre el eje (5), a través de los casquillos (8), aquellos pueden girar en el plano horizontal para permitir que los aros y por lo tanto los cubos (14) queden ocultos en el interior del propio armario (1), o bien girar para que esos aros y correspondientes cubos (14) salgan al exterior y permitir con ello llevar a cabo su vaciado o extracción de la bolsa que normalmente se dispone en los cubos para recepcionar los residuos.According to the mentioned characteristics, by virtue of mounting the arms (10) on the shaft (5), through of the bushings (8), those can rotate in the horizontal plane to allow the rings and therefore the cubes (14) to remain hidden inside the closet itself (1), or turn to that those rings and corresponding cubes (14) go outside and allow to carry out its emptying or removal of the bag which is normally arranged in the cubes to receive the waste.

El giro de los brazos (10) se consigue en base a un saliente o pomo (15) establecido en cada uno de los aros (12), de manera que el usuario agarrará el pomo o saliente (15) para llevar a cabo el giro hacia el exterior, o el empuje hacia el interior, para extracción u ocultación referidas con anterioridad.The rotation of the arms (10) is achieved based on a projection or knob (15) established in each of the rings (12), so that the user will grab the knob or projection (15) to carry out the outward turn, or the push towards the interior, for extraction or concealment referred to with anteriority.

El eje (5) portador de los brazos (10), en lugar de estar montado sobre el propio mueble, es decir sobre la pletina soporte (2), puede estar simplemente fijado entre la base y el techo del mueble (1), sin más que ser telescópico y tener sus dos sectores roscados para poder alargarlo o acortarlo, de manera que se introduce en el armario en situación de aflojamiento y tras elegir la posición definitiva se lleva a cabo el giro de un sector respecto del otro para que se produzca el apriete y estabilización del comentado eje, sin necesidad de ningún tipo de perforación en el armario.The axle (5) carrying the arms (10), instead of being mounted on the furniture itself, that is to say on the plate support (2), can be simply fixed between the base and the furniture ceiling (1), without being telescopic and having its two threaded sectors to lengthen or shorten it, so that is introduced into the closet in a loosening situation and after choosing the final position takes place the turn of a sector with respect to the other so that the tightening and stabilization occurs of the commented axis, without the need for any type of drilling in cabinet.
