Description

Solid waste container device.

The present invention relates to a solid waste container operation device and Improved maintenance Its field of application is that of urban public services.

They are known surface containers provided with a top loading mouth and discharge gate lower. The operations of suspension, and opening of discharge gates are performed well by a double system hook, good for a hook and pusher system. Usually These containers are bell-shaped, which allows mold them in plastic materials, and although they are very economical, they present numerous problems, such as high occupancy of the road public, and a low load capacity, constituting a focus of dirt due to liquid spillage, and being subjected to a high degree of vandalism

To solve the aforementioned problems, developed numerous underground container devices.

In some, a pit is dug in the ground that covered by a mobile floor that conceals the container itself saying. A loading mouth, independent or attached to the mobile floor, communicates with the underground container, located in a lower plane. For unloading, the container comes to the surface, well raised by a hydraulic platform, or suspended from a crane truck. These devices are expensive, difficult to maintain, and slow operation due to the need to maneuver the mobile floor that hide the container

In others, the loading mouth and the container itself, with which they can be maneuvered suspended with a crane truck, similar to containers of surface but without the need to maneuver the mobile floor, presenting a high load capacity. This load capacity high, together with the bumps and frictions that occur when introducing it into the pit has forced them to make them in materials metallic, with the consequent corrosion problems. Additionally, cleaning the inside of the pit is problematic and face.

Consequently, it is an objective of the present invention having a waste container device solid with the ease of operation and maintenance of surface suspended containers, and low occupancy in surface of the underground.

It is another objective of the present invention the have a solid waste container device without the dirt problems presented by surface containers lower discharge.

To achieve the proposed objectives it has been conceived a device that is structured around a container consisting of an upper body provided with a mouth of loading, and a lower body provided with discharge gates, communicated with each other, and separated by a perimeter floor.

The lower body is housed in an excavated pit on the ground and supports a security platform provided with automatic lifting means when it is not loaded by the container.

The waste load can be divided between lower body (most) and upper body, whenever permissible a certain surface volume.

The container is made in a resin reinforced, such as fiber reinforced polyester of glass, with protective skates on the periphery of the lower body These protective skates have a triple function.

-

Arman the container structure allowing a high capacity of load.

-

Serving guide during the introduction and extraction in the pit, without what The resin would suffer an unacceptable abrasion.

-

They allow the hinges to be fixed to them of articulation of the lower discharge gates.

Reinforced resin execution allows arrange in the pit a casket of a non-metallic material; by example, reinforced concrete.

The security platform on which the container, and that closes the pit opening when the container, is foldable for easy cleaning.

Automatic lifting means are performed advantageously by means of a scissor mechanism loaded with springs, conventional.

To solve the small quantity problem of liquid present, sometimes in solid waste, the discharge gates, conventionally maneuvered, are made in the form of a tray of a certain depth covered with a grid on which solid waste is supported. This releases a space capable of collecting liquids, preventing their leak.

The advantages of such a solution are numerous

-

its Operation is very simple and fast. The same as that of surface containers.

-

Totally free of corrosion.

-

Scarce maintenance.

-

Good safety, when the pit opening is automatically sealed remove the container

-

Excellent cleaning, when collecting liquids in the trays of the discharge gates, which are not clogged by solid waste thanks to the grilles.

-

Due to the folding safety platform, easy cleaning from the pit which, in any case, is minimal.

-

Load capacity that may be similar to devices that use underground metal containers, being able to expand thanks to the modularity of the upper body, adapting it to the environment, suitable to reside part of the waste.

-

Cost significantly lower than conventional underground devices, including a saving in handling costs by the management company.

As can be seen in Figure 2, the container device of the invention consists of a container (1) constituted by an upper body (2) provided with a loading mouth (3) communicated with a lower body (4) provided with discharge gates (5). Between both bodies there is a floor perimeter (6). The lower body (4) is housed in a pit (7) excavated in the ground (8) whose inner walls are protected by means of a reinforced concrete casket (9), and supported by a safety platform (10), tilting, supported by a mechanism of scissors (11) loaded by springs, conventional.

The container (1) made of polyester fiberglass reinforced is reinforced externally by a plurality of protective skates (17), advantageously executed in stainless steel, which have an angled "L" shape down, which improves the carrying capacity of the container (1), and facilitates its centering and introduction into the box (9) of the pit (7). See figures 2 and 3.

The loading mouth (3) is closed by a trapdoor (12), hinged, maneuvered by a handle (13). See Figure Four.

The discharge gates (5) are made by trays (14) covered by grilles (15). See Figure 5.

The suspension and opening of the container (1) is performed using a double hook mechanism (16), which will be well known to the person skilled in the art. A first ring together with the container (1) it can be suspended, providing a second ring attached to a ratchet mechanism for opening the discharge gates (5).

The operation of the container device of The invention is as follows. Starting from the resting position of Figure 1 in which only the body protrudes from the ground (8) upper (2) with its loading mouth (3), and the perimeter floor (6) that covers the pit (7), the container (1) is suspended by the double hook ring (16) as shown in figure 2. When acting on the second ring of the double hook (16), the floodgates of Discharge (5) open, as shown in Figure 3.

They will be evident to the subject matter expert. a series of variants and modifications to adapt the invention to design and the means of production available. Thus, it has been described. the use of a double suspension and opening mechanism hook, but a simple mechanism could also be used hook and button. Both are well known in the sector.

An arc has also been represented (9) made of reinforced concrete, which can be replaced by one of reinforced resin, such as polyester reinforced with fiber glass, simply incorporating protection plates that play with the protective skates (17) of the lower body (4) of the container (1).

Also, the scissor mechanism (11) can Replace with any equivalent device.
