Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、一般家庭等から出される一般ゴミの集積所に設置し、また、缶類、ビン類などの分別ゴミの収容用として公園などの公共場所などに設置可能なゴミ集積ボックスに関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
一般家庭から出される一般ゴミは、多くの場合、道路端などに設定された所定のゴミ集積場所に所定の曜日の所定の時間に出し、ゴミ収集車がこのゴミを収集し、焼却場に運搬し焼却処理している。
【０００３】
かかるゴミ集積場所は、前記のように道路端等の特定の場所を指定するものであるが、ここに集積するゴミがちらばらないように、また、集積場所を明示するようにゴミ集積ボックスを設置する所もあり、このゴミ集積ボックスとしては、従来、例えば周囲を完全に閉塞しゴミ出し入れ用の扉を設けたコンテナ状のタイプのものや、上面のみを開放面に形成した囲い形状のものなど種々のタイプがあり、これらのゴミ集積ボックスは集積場所に常設されている。
【０００４】
そして、このようなゴミ集積ボックスは近年、家庭から出されるゴミの量が増加していることもあって、大きさが例えば奥行き１〜２ｍ、長さ方向の幅が２〜３ｍ程度の大型のものとなっている。
【０００５】
一方、駅前、公園、野球場、霊園、公民館、体育館などの公共場所や、工場内、スーパー駐車場等では、種々のタイプのゴミが捨てられるが、これらのゴミは、各種類のゴミをまとめていっしょに収集し、その後、回収業者などが、例えば、缶類、ビン類、ペットボトルなどのプラスチック類、紙屑などの可燃ゴミに分別して処分場に搬入したり、または、公園などの各施設で分別ゴミ毎に別のゴミ箱を設置し、利用者の判断でゴミの種類によってそれぞれのゴミ箱に捨てるようにしている。
【０００６】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
一般の家庭ゴミの収集は所定曜日の所定時間にのみ行われるものであるにもかかわらず、前記のようなゴミ集積ボックスが歩道や車道の端に常時設置されると、ボックス単体が道路上で占有する容積が大きく道路中央に向かって大きく突出し、しかも、これが道路端にそって比較的短い間隔で設置されているため、歩行や車両通行に常時支障を来し、交通事故を誘発するおそれもある。
【０００７】
また、ゴミ収集日や時間以外の時にもゴミが出されるおそれがあり、ゴミ集積場所が汚れ、街の景観を損なうことにもなる。
【０００８】
一方、公園などの公共場所などでは、全てのゴミを分別しないでまとめて収集する場合は、その後の分別作業に時間と手間を要する。これに対して、分別ゴミ毎に異なるゴミ箱を設置する場合は、複数のゴミ箱が並び、周囲の景観を損なうおそれもある。
【０００９】
本発明の目的は前記従来例の不都合を解消し、道路端にゴミ集積ボックスを設置する場合に、ゴミ収集日の収集が終了した後はこのゴミ集積ボックスが道路に大きく突出することがなく、歩行者や自動車の通行の邪魔になることを防止でき、そのためにゴミ集積ボックスを折り畳んだり広げたりする開閉操作もワンタッチで容易に行えて使い勝手がよく、また、特に公園などの公共場所に設置する場合であっても周囲の景観を損なうおそれがなく、分別ゴミの収集も容易なゴミ集積ボックスを提供することにある。
【００１０】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は前記目的を達成するため、第１に、道路の端に設置するゴミ集積ボックスで、背面側の囲い部材の左右両端部に対して、中折れして偏平に折り畳み可能なよう前後の分割部材で構成される左右側面側の囲い部材の後端を回動自在に軸着し、該左右側面側の囲い部材の前端に対して前面側の囲い部材の端部を回動自在に軸着したゴミ集積ボックスにおいて、前記背面側の囲い部材の中央と前面側の囲い部材の中央とを中折れ自在な支持アームで連結したことを要旨とするものである。
【００１１】
第２に、背面側の囲い部材と前面側の囲い部材とのそれぞれの上部の少なくとも左右両端と中央に枠状の支持部材を突設し、該支持部材で防護ネットを支持するようにして背面側、前面側および左右側面側の囲い部材の上方を防護ネットで覆うことを要旨とするものである。
【００１２】
第３に、背面側の囲い部材を囲むようにコ字形の門型のポールを立設し、該ポールに背面側の囲い部材を固定すること、第４に、ポールには植木鉢の保持棚と広告板を設けることを要旨とするものである。
【００１３】
第５に、ポールおよび防護ネットにテグスを設けること、第６に、ポールの側面に、清掃用具を掛止し、保護部材を備えたフックを設けることを要旨とするものである。
【００１４】
第７に、前面側の囲い部材の中央に位置する支持部材の上部に把手を取り付けることを要旨とするものである。
【００１５】
第８に、支持部材間に索条を着脱自在に取り付けることを要旨とするものである。
【００１６】
第９に、囲い部材内に複数の分別ゴミの収容容器を着脱自在に取り付けることを要旨とするものである。
【００１７】
第１０に、前面側の支持部材と背面側の支持部材との間に索条を架け渡し、該索条に取り付けた係止部材および前記支持部材で分別ゴミの収容容器を吊支することを要旨とするものである。
【００１８】
第１１に、ポールは、地中に埋設した円管状の脚柱に下部を挿入して固定すること、第１２に、ポールは、下部に取り付けたボルトを地中に設置して固定することを要旨とするものである。
【００１９】
第１３に、ポールは、フック状の固定金物を介してブロック塀などの構築物に固定すること、第１４に、ポールは、アンカーボルトを介して擁壁などの構築物に固定することを要旨とするものである。
【００２０】
請求項１記載の本発明によれば、前後の分割部材で構成する左右側面側の囲い部材を中心から前後に中折れ状態にして後端部の軸着部を中心にして背面側に回動し、背面側の囲み部材の前面に重ねれば、全体を偏平な状態に折り畳める。よって、ゴミを収集しない時は、このような折り畳み状態にしておけば、道路の中央側に突出せず、歩行や自動車の通行の妨げにならない。また、ゴミ収集時には左右側面側の囲い部材を前方に引き出せば、容易に囲いが形成できる。
【００２１】
このように左右側面側の囲い部材や前面側の囲い部材を背面側の囲い部材に対して引出しまたは偏平に折り畳む開閉操作は、中央の支持アームをその中央で押し下げたり引き上げる操作でワンタッチ的に簡単に行える。さらに、左右側面側の囲い部材は前後に分割できるから、分割状態にすれば、移動、運搬が容易で、設置場所に簡単に搬送できる。
【００２２】
請求項２記載の本発明によれば、背面側、前面側および左右側面側の囲い部材の上方を防護ネットで覆うことにより、ボックスに集積されたゴミが収集されるまでの間に、烏や猫などの動物によってゴミが食い散らかされることを防止できる。そして、このネットは囲い部材の上部から上方に突設した支持部材で支承され張設されているから、ゴミ収集の際はネットの端をめくるだけで収集作業を行うことができ、また、収集後にボックスを折り畳む際も、ネットを取り付けたままの状態でネット毎全体を折り畳めるから、開閉の都度ネットの着脱を行う必要がなく操作性がよい。
【００２３】
請求項３記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、ボックスの設置は、設置場所にコ字形の門型のポールを立設し、該ポールの内側に背面側の囲い部材を固定するだけでよいから、容易に行える。また、設置後、囲み部材全体が背面側、左右側面側および前面側で相互に撓むような遊びを持たせることもでき、かかる場合にも背面側の囲い部材が強固なポールで支持されているから、全体の設置強度を確保できる。さらに、囲い部材を偏平に折り畳んだ状態では囲み部材はポールの内側に収容されるから、囲い部材がポールで保護される。
【００２４】
請求項４記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、ポールの保持棚に植木鉢を設置したり、広告板に周囲の景観にマッチする図柄、例えば、草木などの絵を描くことにより、道路際に常設のものとしたときでも、ゴミ収集の時間帯以外の使用されない時間の方が長く、また、汚れが目立ちやすいゴミ集積ボックスが街の景観を損なうことを防止できる。
【００２５】
請求項５記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、防護ネットに加えて、さらにテグスを設けることで、鳥、特に烏による被害を防止できる。
【００２６】
請求項６記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、ポールの側面に設ける、清掃用具を掛止するフックには、保護部材を設けたから、清掃用具に人が接触して怪我することなどの事故や、清掃用具が風などで飛ばされる事故を防止でき、屋外に設置するものとしての安全性を向上できる。
【００２７】
請求項７記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、中央の支持アームをその中央で押し下げたり引き上げる操作を行う際に、把手をもって前面側の囲い部材を前後に移動することで囲い部材の開閉操作がより容易になる。
【００２８】
請求項８記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、支持部材間に取り付けた索条により、囲い部材内に不要に立ち入ることを阻止でき、また、支持部材上に張設した防護ネットも所定形状を保持できる。
【００２９】
請求項９記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、分別ゴミの収容容器を複数個取り付けることで、例えば、缶類、ビン類、ペットボトルなどのプラスチック類、紙屑類などのゴミが分別収集され、特に公園などの公共場所でのゴミの分別収集に役立ち、公共の場所でのゴミ放置が少なくなり、環境の美化に貢献できる。そして、この分別ゴミの収容容器は着脱自在なものとしてあるから、これを取り外すことで一般の家庭ゴミ収集用に使用できる。
【００３０】
請求項１０記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、分別ゴミの収容容器を索条に取り付けた係止部材および前記支持部材で吊支するようにしたから、着脱が容易である。また、分別ゴミの収容容器を取り外し、一般の家庭ゴミ収集用に使用する場合、前記索条や係止部材が邪魔になることもなく、そのままの状態で使用できる。
【００３１】
請求項１１記載の本発明によれば、前記作用に加えて、ポールは、地中に予め埋設した円管状の脚柱に下部を挿入するだけで固定されるから、ワンタッチ的に固定でき、固定作業が容易である。
【００３２】
請求項１２記載の本発明によれば、ポールは、下部に取り付けたボルトを地中に設置して固定するから、ボルトとの螺合位置を調整することでポールの設置高さを調節でき、設置現場の条件に柔軟に対処できる。
【００３３】
請求項１３記載の本発明によれば、ポールは、フック状の固定金物を介してブロック塀などの構築物に固定するから、下部だけでなく上部も固定され、安定した状態で設置される。そして、上部の固定は、フック状の固定金物をブロック塀などの構築物の上部に引っかけるだけでよいから、容易に行える。
【００３４】
請求項１４記載の本発明によれば、ポールは、アンカーボルトを介して擁壁などの構築物に固定するから、ゴミ集積ボックスの設置場所が擁壁のように固定のための取っかかりの少ないものの場合であっても、上部も固定され、安定した状態で設置される。
【００３５】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、図面について本発明の実施の形態を詳細に説明する。図１は本発明のゴミ集積ボックスの実施形態を示す組立てた状態の斜視図で、本発明のゴミ集積ボックス１は、背面側の囲い部材２と左右側面側の囲い部材３と前面側の囲い部材４とで形成される囲い部材Ａと、背面側の囲い部材２が固定される門型のコ字形のポール５とで構成される。各囲い部材２，３，４は材質としてアルミニウム、鉄、ステンレスなどを使用し、形態としては網形状、格子状、柵形状などフェンスとして機能するものであれば図示のような網形状のものに限定されない。
【００３６】
ポール５は、図２に示すように、直径約６０ｍｍ程度の円管をコ字形に折り曲げて高さ約１０００ｍｍ、長さ１６００ｍｍ程度の本体５ａとし、地中に埋設した円管状の脚柱５ｂに挿入して固定する。
【００３７】
本体５ａの上部で、左右端部近傍に高さ２７０ｍｍ程度でパイプ状の支柱６，６を立設し、この支柱６，６の間に植木鉢の保持棚７を取り付ける。この保持棚７は、細長の枠状に形成したもので、長さ方向に適宜間隔で複数（図示の例では４個）の保持孔７ａを形成した。該保持孔７ａの直径は例えば１００ｍｍとする。
【００３８】
支柱６，６の左右両側に位置させて広告板８を取り付ける。該広告板８は支柱６とほぼ同じ高さで、ポール５の本体５ａより外方に突出しない長さとする。そして、この広告板８は自治会の掲示板として使用する他に、街の案内図や商店の広告、周囲の景観にマッチする図柄、例えば草木などの絵を描く。
【００３９】
囲い部材Ａは、前記のように背面側の囲い部材２と左右側面側の囲い部材３と前面側の囲い部材４とで形成されるが、背面側の囲い部材２と前面側の囲い部材４とは基本的には同一の構成であり、ここでは背面側の囲い部材２を例にとって図３について説明する。
【００４０】
背面側の囲い部材２は、ポール５の本体５ａの内側に納まるサイズのものとして、横方向の長さが約１５００ｍｍ、高さ４４０ｍｍ程度の大きさに形成し、周囲を方形の枠体２ａで囲み、その内側に網状体２ｂを形成した。枠体２ａのうち、左右両側の縦枠はＬ字形のアングル鋼板で形成する。
【００４１】
かかる枠体２ａの上部から、少なくとも左右両端と中央に縦長の枠状の支持部材９を突設し、該支持部材９の上部および枠体２ａの縦枠の外側に突設した連結杆１０の先端をポール５の本体５ａの内側に溶接により接合して枠体２ａをポール５の本体５ａに固定する。
【００４２】
左右側面側の囲い部材３は図４に示すように、前後の分割部材３ａ，３ｂで中折れ可能に構成し、前後の分割部材３ａ，３ｂ同志を蝶番１１で回動自在に結合するとともに、後側の分割部材３ｂを背面側の囲い部材２の枠体２ａの左右両側の縦枠に蝶番１１で回動自在に結合し、また、前側の分割部材３ａを前面側の囲い部材４の枠体４ａの縦枠に同じく蝶番１１で回動自在に結合する。
【００４３】
この場合、蝶番１１は前後の分割部材３ａ，３ｂ同志が中折れする方向、また、後側の分割部材３ｂおよび前側の分割部材３ａがそれぞれ囲い部材Ａの内側に折れる方向には回動するが、その反対方向へは、前後の分割部材３ａ，３ｂが一枚物の平板状の状態になった後はそれ以上の回動が阻止されるように構成しておく。
【００４４】
各分割部材３ａ，３ｂの構成も、背面側の囲い部材２、前面側の囲い部材４と同様であり、周囲の枠体の内側に網状体を形成したものである。
【００４５】
このようにして図１に示すように方形の枠状に形成される囲い部材Ａの、背面側の囲い部材２の中央と前面側の囲い部材４の中央とを、中折れ自在な支持アーム１２で連結する。
【００４６】
この支持アーム１２は、前側の支持アーム１２ａと後側の支持アーム１２ｂとの組み合わせで構成し、前側の支持アーム１２ａの前端を前面側の囲い部材４の枠体４ａの上部に回動自在に軸着し、後側の支持アーム１２ｂの後端を背面側の囲い部材２の枠体２ａの上部に回動自在に軸着し、さらに、前側の支持アーム１２ａの後端と後側の支持アーム１２ｂの前端とを回動自在に軸着した。図中１４は支持アーム１２の長さ方向に適宜間隔で多数穿設した孔を示し、支持アーム１２の軽量化を図るためのものである。
【００４７】
図中１３は、前面側の囲い部材４の上部に突設した支持部材９の上部に取り付けた把手を示し、前面側の囲い部材４も基本構成は前記したように背面側の囲い部材２と同様であるが、背面側の囲い部材２に溶接した連結杆１０は不要である。
【００４８】
そして、背面側の囲い部材２および前面側の囲い部材４にそれぞれ取り付けた支持部材９の隣接するもの同志の間にチェーンなどの索条１５を架け渡す。この場合、該索条１５は、一端を半田付けなどにより中央位置の支持部材９の側部に固定し、他端を側部位置の支持部材９の側部に取り付けたフックなどに着脱自在に係止する。
【００４９】
さらに、図２に示すようにポール５に取り付けた支柱６の上にコ字形のフレーム１６を架設する。該フレーム１６の取付けは、支柱６を中空のパイプ状に形成しておくことで、この支柱６の中空部内にフレーム１６の下端を挿入する。
【００５０】
図１において、図中１７は防護ネットを示し、支持部材９で支持するようにして囲い部材Ａの上方を覆うものであり、図６に示すように上面部１７ａ、前面部１７ｂ、左右の側面部１７ｃを連続して形成し、背面側を開放面とした箱型のものである。
【００５１】
さらに、フレーム１６、広告板８および防護ネット１７の上にフック１８を適宜取り付けて、このフックにテグス１９を取り付ける。
【００５２】
図中２０は箒や塵取りなどの清掃用具を掛けるフックを示し、ポール５の側面に設けたものであり、Ｃ字形のフック本体２０ａが保護部２０ｂに取り付けられる。保護部２０ｂは、１本の鋼製の丸棒を折り曲げたもので、ポール５の本体５ａの縦枠の側面に固定される直線部２１ａを一端とし、これに続けてＵ字形の折り曲がり部２１ｂを水平に形成し、さらに垂直部２１ｃを立ち下げて形成してその下端にＵ字形の折り曲がり部２１ｄを水平に形成し、これに続けて垂直部２１ｅを立ち上げて形成してその上端を上方のＵ字形の折り曲がり部２１ｂの下面に溶接して形成した。
【００５３】
かかるゴミ集積ボックス１を車道や歩道等の道路の端に設置するには、例えば道路の端に配設してあるブロックに固定用の孔を穿設し、この孔に脚柱５ｂを埋設し、該脚柱５ｂにポール５の本体５ａの下部を挿入し固定する。このポール５の固定により、該ポール５に固定してある囲い部材Ａのうちの背面側の囲い部材２も同時に道路に設置されることになる。
【００５４】
次に、蝶番１１を介して左右の側面側の囲い部材３の後端を背面側の囲い部材２に結合し、さらに、左右の側面側の囲い部材３の前端に前面側の囲い部材４の端部を蝶番１１を介して結合する。また、前面側の囲い部材４に取り付けてある前側の支持アーム１２ａと背面側の囲い部材２に取り付けてある後側の支持アーム１２ｂとを連結し、支持アーム１２を前面側の囲い部材４と背面側の囲い部材２との間に折り畳み自在に架け渡す。これにより、上面を開放面とした囲い部材Ａがボックス状に組み立てられ、支持アーム１２がつっかえ棒として機能して方形が保持される。
【００５５】
さらに、支持部材９に防護ネット１７を被せて囲い部材Ａの上方を覆い、ポール５の側面に設けたフック２０に清掃用具を掛ける。また、植木鉢の保持棚７に形成した保持孔７ａに必要に応じて植木鉢を配置する。
【００５６】
こうして平面方形に組み立てられたゴミ集積ボックス１内に上部の開放面からゴミを投入する。ゴミ投入時には、投入者が各自で、防護ネット１７の手前側を手で少しだけ引き上げてゴミ投入用の開口を作ればよい。投入されたゴミは、ゴミ収集車で収集する。この収集の際も、作業員が防護ネット１７の手前側を手で引き上げてゴミ取り出し用の開口を形成する。
【００５７】
収集までの間は、防護ネット１７により烏や猫等の動物によりゴミが食い散らかされることを防止できる。また、テグス１９により、特に烏による被害をくい止めることができる。
【００５８】
また、囲い部材Ａが引き出されて設置されている状態では、背面側の囲い部材２、左右側面側の囲い部材３、前面側の囲い部材４はそれぞれ蝶番１１で連結されているから、囲い部材Ａ全体として撓むような遊びを有し、子供などが囲い部材Ａにぶつかっても囲い部材Ａがしなることにより、衝撃を吸収でき大きな怪我をすることを防止できる。
【００５９】
ゴミ収集後、周囲の道路上などに飛散したゴミは、ポール５に取り付けてある清掃用具で清掃する。清掃用具は、不使用時にはフック２０に掛止されているが、この状態では保護部２０ｂの上下に形成した水平の折り曲がり部２１ｂ、２１ｄの内部に納まるから、風などの力を受けて搖れ動いてもぐらついたり、飛散することを防止でき、安全性を確保できる。
【００６０】
ゴミ収集後に引き出された囲い部材Ａを折り畳むには、把手１３をもって、前面側の囲い部材４を後方に押せば、後方への押圧力によって左右側面側の囲い部材３が蝶番１１の箇所で中折れ状態となって前後の分割部材３ａ，３ｂが折り畳まれ、これら前後の分割部材３ａ，３ｂと前面側の囲い部材４とが重合した状態で背面側の囲い部材２の前面に折り重なり、全体が偏平状態に畳まれる（図５参照）。
【００６１】
このとき、中央の支持アーム１２は、前後の支持アーム１２ａ，１２ｂが結合箇所で上方に持ち上がり中折れ状態となり、前後の支持アーム１２ａ，１２ｂは立ち上がった状態で前後に重なる。そして、前後の支持アーム１２ａ，１２ｂが折り畳まれるときに、支持アーム１２によって前面側の囲い部材４が後方に引き寄せられることになり、囲い部材Ａの折り畳みはワンタッチ的にスムーズに行える。
【００６２】
そして、支持アーム１２には多数の孔１４が穿設されて軽量化が図られているから、前後の支持アーム１２ａ，１２ｂは容易に引き上げられ、また、手を添えて引き上げを助ける場合にも、作業性のよいものになっている。
【００６３】
また、囲い部材Ａを折り畳むとき、防護ネット１７を外す必要はなく、装着したままの状態で、防護ネット１７毎囲い部材Ａ全体を折り畳める。
【００６４】
さらに、折り畳んだ状態では、囲い部材Ａは偏平になりポール５の内側に納まるから、ポール５により囲い部材Ａの保護が図れる。
【００６５】
次回のゴミ収集時には、把手１３をもって前面側の囲い部材４を手前に引き出せば、前面側の囲い部材４と左右側面側の囲い部材３が同時に前方に引き出され、また、同時に支持アーム１２も一本物の水平状態となって、ワンタッチ的に上面が開放されたボックス形状に形成できる。
【００６６】
前記実施形態は、ゴミ集積ボックスを一般の家庭ゴミ収集用のものとした場合であるが、本発明のゴミ集積ボックスは駅前、公園、野球場、霊園、公民館、体育館などの公共場所や、工場内、スーパー駐車場等における分別ゴミの収集用としても使用できるもので、そのための構成を次に説明する。
【００６７】
分別ゴミは、一般に、缶類、ビン類、ペットボトルなどのプラスチック類、紙屑などの可燃ゴミの４種類であるとが多いことから、分別ゴミの収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄを４個、囲い部材Ａの内側に着脱自在に配設する。収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄは、例えば、ネット袋で形成し、上面を開口に形成したものの開口縁の四隅に囲い部材Ａへの係止手段としてのループ２３を取り付ける。この４個の収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄは、４個を縦横２列につなげ、または分離したままでもよい。
【００６８】
一方、囲い部材Ａの側には、背面側の支持部材９と前面側の支持部材９との間に、チェーンなどの索条２４を架け渡し、該索条２４の中央に係止部材としてフック２５を取り付ける。この場合、中央に位置する支持部材９には索条２４を２本取り付けて、左右に位置する索条２４に取り付けたフック２５はそれぞれ外向きとし、中央に位置する２本の索条２４に取り付けたフック２５は、対向するものどうしを向かい合わせる。
【００６９】
このようにして各分別ゴミの収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄに取り付けてあるループ２３を前記フック２５に引っかければ、分別ゴミの収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄが囲い部材Ａの内側にセットされる。よって、この状態でゴミ集積ボックスを公園などの公共場所や道路に設置すれば、飲料缶、飲料ビン、ペットボトル、雑誌などの紙類が公共施設や路上などに投棄されることなく、この収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄ内に分別されて収集され、周囲の景観が損なわれることがなくなる。
【００７０】
なお、収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄは図１０に示すようにポリエチレンなどの袋とすることもでき、また、収容容器２２ａ，２２ｂ，２２ｃ，２２ｄの開口縁に、ゴミの種類毎に異なる色の紐２６を通せば、分別の種類が一目で判断できると同時に、回収時に紐２６を引けば開口を閉じることができ、回収作業が容易になる。
【００７１】
ポール５の固定手段として、前記した実施形態では本体５ａを地中に埋設した円管状の脚柱５ｂに挿入するパイプ方式としたが、これに限定されるものではなく、他の例として図１１〜図１９に示すようなボルト方式とすることもできる。
【００７２】
このボルト方式は、基本的には図１１、図１２に示すようにポール５の本体５ａの下部に挿着される連結金物２７と、先端にナット２８ａを取り付けたボルト２８とで構成するもので、前記連結金物２７は、下部にフランジ２７ｂを設けた２重管構造とし内管部分の内側に前記ボルト２８が螺合するネジ部２７ａを形成した。
【００７３】
かかるボルト２８を使用してポール５を道路などに立設するには、第１例として図１１に示すように本体５ａの下部に連結金物２７を挿入し、連結金物２７に形成してあるネジ部２７ａにボルト２８を螺合する。この場合、連結金物２７にはフランジ２７ｂが設けてあるから、このフランジ２７ｂがストッパーとして機能し連結金物２７が本体５ａの内部に入り込むことはない。
【００７４】
このようにして連結金物２７を介してボルト２８を取り付けた本体５ａを道路などに固定するには、第１例として図１３〜図１５に示すように道路面を僅か（例えば２０ｍｍ程度）堀り、ここに図１２に示すような鉄板などの板状部材２９を配設し、該板状部材２９に設けた孔部２９ａにボルト２８の端部に取り付けたナット２８ａを装着する。
【００７５】
これにより板状部材２９、ボルト２８を介してポール５を立設する。この場合、ポール５の立設は、板状部材２９を配設できるスペースがあればよいから、図１３、図１４に示すようにブロック塀３１と側溝３０の間の僅かな隙間にも立設が可能となる。
【００７６】
そして、ボルト２８に対するネジ部２７ａの螺合位置を調節することで、ポール５の立設高さを調整できる。
【００７７】
図１６〜図１９は、ボルト２８を使用してポール５を立設する第２例を示し、ボルト２８の下部を地中に直接埋設し、地上に突出させたボルト２８の上部に連結金物２７を介して本体５ａを結合する。この場合も、ボルト２８を埋設できるスペースがあればよいから、ブロック塀３１と側溝３０の間の僅かな隙間にもポール５の立設が可能となる。
【００７８】
