Description

DISPOSITIVO DE APERTURA Y CIERRE PARA PLATAFORMAS DE SEGURIDAD DE CONTENEDORES SOTERRADOS La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo de apertura y cierre para las plataformas o firmes de seguridad presentes en las disposiciones de 5 contenedores soterrados. En general, las plataformas de seguridad o firmes de seguridad constituyen un elemento de inclusión obligatoria en una disposición de un contenedor soterrado de residuos sólidos urbanos, habitualmente para la recogida selectiva de residuos reciclables. 10 Estas disposiciones de contenedores soterrados habitualmente incluyen un buzón de vertido a nivel de la calle que permite la introducción en el contenedor soterrado propiamente dicho de residuos, un sistema de elevación para la extracción solidaria de todo el conjunto y la descarga del contenido del contenedor sobre el camión de recogida, una plataforma peatonal que cierra el 15 hueco o foso donde se dispone el contenedor, el propio contenedor con sus correspondientes trampillas de vaciado y finalmente el llamado firme de seguridad o plataforma de seguridad, cuya función es cubrir, a la cota peatonal, el hueco dejado por el contenedor una vez elevado, ya sea para su vaciado o para cualquier tarea de mantenimiento. 20 En la norma española UNE-EN 13071.1/2 se define el firme o plataforma de seguridad como una parte móvil de la disposición del contenedor soterrado que cubre el hueco dejado por éste cuando se retira, siendo su misión impedir la caída accidental de cualquier persona que se encuentre en las proximidades, indicándose igualmente que el firme de seguridad se debe trasladar 25 automáticamente a la posición de seguridad cuando el contenedor es extraído de su hueco. A este respecto, son conocidas plataformas de seguridad para contenedores soterrados constituidas por una plataforma completa que incluye medios de cierre automáticos tales como poleas o elementos hidráulicos que activan la elevación de la plataforma de seguridad (véase por ejemplo el documento ES200603056). Igualmente, son conocidas plataformas o firmes de seguridad constituidas por dos trampillas que giran sobre sus ejes laterales y que incluyen pestillos de trinquete que se activan por presión, facilitando la apertura de las trampillas, las cuales a su 5 vez comprimen medios elásticos, resortes, sistemas hidráulicos o similares, de forma que al liberarse la presión sobre los pestillos las trampillas vuelven a su posición inicial cerrada. Así, esencialmente, para las plataformas o firmes de seguridad conocidos conformadas en base a dos trampillas de basculación lateral, los dispositivos de 10 cierre automáticos se basan en medios de bloqueo o pestillos y medios de cierre del tipo resortes de gas, hidráulicos o similares. Estos dispositivos de cierre de tipo resorte, resorte de gas o hidráulicos tienen la desventaja de que, con el paso del tiempo y su uso continuado, inevitables fugas de líquido o gas de los propios elementos o la fatiga del material del resorte provocan que la fuerza que deben 15 realizar para el cierre de las trampillas se vea afectada negativamente, siendo necesarias tareas de mantenimiento ya sea para su reparación o reemplazo, con el coste que ello conlleva. La presente invención soluciona las desventajas citadas proporcionando un dispositivo de apertura y cierre para plataformas o firmes de seguridad de 20 contenedores soterrados constituidos por dos trampillas de basculación lateral que elimina la necesidad de emplear medios de elevación de las trampillas, basándose esencialmente en que éstas se elevan automáticamente por la acción de sendos contrapesos asociados a las propias trampillas e incluyendo medios de bloqueo en posición de cierre que bloquean en la posición cerrada ambas 25 trampillas. A continuación se describe la invención en base a una forma de realización de la misma y en referencia a las figuras adjuntas, en las cuales: Figura 1: Vista en perspectiva inferior del dispositivo de cierre de la invención acoplado a una plataforma de seguridad en su posición abierta, con un contenedor alojado en su hueco interior; Figura 2: Vista en perspectiva inferior del dispositivo de cierre de la invención acoplado a una plataforma de seguridad en su posición abierta sin el contenedor; 5 Figura 3: Vista lateral del dispositivo de cierre de la invención acoplado a una plataforma de seguridad en su posición cerrada; Figura 4: Vista en perspectiva superior del dispositivo de cierre de la invención acoplado a una plataforma de seguridad en su posición cerrada. Como se ilustra en las figuras, se muestra una disposición de contenedor 10 soterrado (1) a disponer en un foso (no mostrado). La disposición incluye una plataforma de seguridad (2) constituida por dos trampillas (3, 4) abisagradas lateralmente a un cerco (5), de forma que éstas se abren hacia la parte inferior del foso pivotando sobre un abisagrado lateral (5’). En referencia en concreto a las figuras 1 y 2, la plataforma de seguridad (2) 15 constituida por las dos trampillas (3, 4) y el cerco (5), incluye un dispositivo de cierre y apertura de acuerdo con la invención. En lo que sigue se describirán los elementos que conforman el dispositivo de la invención en referencia a una única trampilla de la plataforma de seguridad para mayor claridad. Es de señalar que esta descripción es aplicable a la otra trampilla 20 de la plataforma de seguridad (2). En referencia ahora a la figura 3, el dispositivo de apertura y cierre de la invención está constituido por un elemento de contrapeso (6) asociado a la trampilla (3, 4), dos elementos de bloqueo (7) asociados a la trampilla (3, 4) y al cerco (5) y dos elementos de desbloqueo (8) asociados en cada caso a los elementos de bloqueo 25 (7). El elemento de contrapeso (6) se dispone lateralmente en la trampilla (3, 4) acoplado a continuación del abisagrado lateral (5’). Este elemento de contrapeso (6) mantiene las trampillas (3, 4) elevadas y, con ello, cerradas por el efecto de palanca que ejerce sobre el lateral abisagrado de las trampillas. Por su parte, los elementos de bloqueo (7) asociados a la trampilla (3, 4) se disponen en los laterales contiguos al abisagrado lateral (5’) de la misma, como se muestra en la figura 2. 5 Estos elementos de bloqueo (7) están constituidos por sendos enganches (9) asociados a correspondientes vástagos (10) dispuestos perpendicularmente en el cerco (5). En asociación con estos elementos de bloqueo (7), el dispositivo de la invención incluye dos elementos de desbloqueo (8). Estos elementos de desbloqueo (8) 10 están constituidos por un cerrojo basculante (11) asociado mediante un vástago al elemento de bloqueo (7) y dispuesto adecuadamente en la trampilla (3, 4), de forma que es accesible por la superficie superior de la trampilla (3, 4) en contacto con el contenedor, como se muestra en las figuras 3 y 4 en particular. El cerrojo basculante (11) está conformado por una rueda (12) unida a un brazo 15 de palanca (13) cuyo punto de apoyo es solidario a la trampilla (3, 4). Así, una fuerza ejercida sobre la rueda (12) del pestillo basculante (11) libera los medios de bloqueo (7) de forma que permite la apertura de las trampillas (3, 4). En uso, durante la introducción del contenedor en el foso, éste ejerce una fuerza sobre las ruedas (12), accionando con ello el cerrojo basculante (11), liberando 20 los medios de bloqueo (7) y forzando la apertura de las trampillas (3, 4) con el propio paso del contenedor venciendo la fuerza de palanca ejercida por el elemento de contrapeso (6). Durante la retirada del contenedor, éste provoca el cierre de las trampillas (3, 4) debido a la palanca ejercida por los elementos de contrapeso (6), de forma que se 25 produce la elevación de las trampillas (3, 4) cerrando la plataforma de seguridad (2) y activando los medios de bloqueo (7).      OPENING AND CLOSING DEVICE FOR SECURITY PLATFORMS OF UNDERGROUND CONTAINERS The present invention relates to an opening and closing device for safety platforms or signatures present in the provisions of 5 underground containers. In general, safety platforms or security signatures constitute an obligatory inclusion element in an arrangement of an underground container of urban solid waste, usually for the selective collection of recyclable waste. 10 These dispositions of underground containers usually include a dump mailbox at street level that allows the introduction into the underground container itself of waste, a lifting system for the solidary extraction of the entire assembly and the unloading of the contents of the container on the collection truck, a pedestrian platform that closes the hollow or pit where the container is arranged, the container itself with its corresponding emptying flaps and finally the so-called safety sign or safety platform, whose function is to cover, at the level pedestrian, the hole left by the container once elevated, either for emptying or for any maintenance. 20 In the Spanish standard UNE-EN 13071.1 / 2 the firm or safety platform is defined as a mobile part of the disposition of the underground container that covers the gap left by it when it is removed, being its mission to prevent the accidental fall of any person that is in the vicinity, also indicating that the security sign must be automatically moved to the security position when the container is removed from its hole. In this regard, safety platforms for underground containers constituted by a complete platform including closing means are known.    automatic devices such as pulleys or hydraulic elements that activate the lifting of the safety platform (see for example document ES200603056). Likewise, there are known safety platforms or signatures consisting of two flaps that rotate on their lateral axes and that include ratchet latches that are activated by pressure, facilitating the opening of the flaps, which in turn compress elastic means, springs, hydraulic systems or the like, so that when the pressure on the latches is released the flaps return to their initial closed position. Thus, essentially, for known safety platforms or signatures formed on the basis of two side-tilting flaps, the automatic closing devices are based on locking means or latches and closing means of the type gas, hydraulic or similar springs. These spring, gas spring or hydraulic closing devices have the disadvantage that, with the passage of time and their continued use, inevitable leaks of liquid or gas from the elements themselves or fatigue of the spring material cause the force that must be carried out for the closing of the hatches is adversely affected, being necessary maintenance tasks either for repair or replacement, with the cost that entails. The present invention solves the aforementioned disadvantages by providing an opening and closing device for platforms or security signatures of 20 underground containers constituted by two side-tilting flaps that eliminates the need to use means for lifting the flaps, essentially based on the fact that they are automatically raise by the action of two counterweights associated with the flaps themselves and including locking means in the closed position that lock both 25 flaps in the closed position. The invention will now be described based on an embodiment thereof and with reference to the attached figures, in which:    Figure 1: Bottom perspective view of the closure device of the invention coupled to a safety platform in its open position, with a container housed in its inner hollow; Figure 2: Bottom perspective view of the closure device of the invention coupled to a safety platform in its open position without the container; Figure 3: Side view of the closure device of the invention coupled to a safety platform in its closed position; Figure 4: Top perspective view of the closure device of the invention coupled to a safety platform in its closed position. As illustrated in the figures, an underground container arrangement 10 (1) to be arranged in a pit (not shown) is shown. The arrangement includes a safety platform (2) consisting of two flaps (3, 4) hinged laterally to a fence (5), so that they open towards the bottom of the pit by pivoting on a lateral hinge (5 ’). Referring in particular to Figures 1 and 2, the safety platform (2) 15 constituted by the two flaps (3, 4) and the fence (5), includes a closing and opening device according to the invention. In the following, the elements that make up the device of the invention will be described in reference to a single hatch of the safety platform for clarity. It should be noted that this description is applicable to the other hatch 20 of the safety platform (2). Referring now to Figure 3, the opening and closing device of the invention is constituted by a counterweight element (6) associated with the trapdoor (3, 4), two locking elements (7) associated with the trapdoor (3 , 4) and the fence (5) and two unlocking elements (8) associated in each case with the blocking elements 25 (7). The counterweight element (6) is arranged laterally in the trapdoor (3, 4) coupled after the lateral hinge (5 ’). This counterweight item    (6) keeps the flaps (3, 4) raised and, thereby, closed by the lever effect it exerts on the hinged side of the flaps. On the other hand, the blocking elements (7) associated to the trapdoor (3, 4) are arranged on the sides adjacent to the lateral hinge (5 ') thereof, as shown in Figure 2. 5 These blocking elements (7) they are constituted by two hooks (9) associated to corresponding stems (10) arranged perpendicularly in the fence (5). In association with these locking elements (7), the device of the invention includes two unlocking elements (8). These unlocking elements (8) 10 are constituted by a tilting bolt (11) associated by means of a rod to the blocking element (7) and properly disposed in the trapdoor (3, 4), so that it is accessible by the upper surface of the trapdoor (3, 4) in contact with the container, as shown in figures 3 and 4 in particular. The tilting bolt (11) is formed by a wheel (12) attached to a lever arm 15 (13) whose support point is integral to the trapdoor (3, 4). Thus, a force exerted on the wheel (12) of the rocker latch (11) releases the locking means (7) in a way that allows the flaps (3, 4) to open. In use, during the introduction of the container into the pit, it exerts a force on the wheels (12), thereby activating the tilting bolt (11), releasing the locking means (7) and forcing the opening of the flaps ( 3, 4) with the passage of the container itself overcoming the lever force exerted by the counterweight element (6). During the removal of the container, it causes the flaps (3, 4) to close due to the lever exerted by the counterweight elements (6), so that the hatches (3, 4) are raised by closing the safety platform (2) and activating the locking means (7).
