DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a container transport device in a compactor container system, and more particularly, to a container which is installed together with a compactor in a downstairs space of a building or the like and into which trash is pushed by the compactor, for efficient vehicle transportation. The present invention relates to a conveyor-type transfer device that can be re-transferred and moved laterally.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A large amount of garbage is generated from a large hotel or building. However, in a conventional garbage unloading operation, a box containing garbage is put on a pallet or the like, and a forklift truck or the like is used. To carry it out. However, in such a loading / unloading mode of a box, the carrying capacity of a forklift truck reciprocating to a vehicle such as a truck for transporting garbage is restricted. Therefore, a large amount of refuse cannot be quickly carried out, and a number of pallets must be prepared. Therefore, a compactor container system has been adopted in order to reduce the volume of garbage and to improve the efficiency of carrying out. The compactor is a stationary type, which compresses dust and pushes it into a container, and the container is used to be loaded on a vehicle and transported to a dumping site. In buildings where such a compactor container system has been introduced, compactors should be installed in lower spaces such as underground to make it easier to collect garbage on the upper floor, and a passage through which vehicles can enter and exit close to the compactor will be installed underground. To secure it. In such a garbage disposal facility, even if an empty container arrives while the garbage is being pushed into the container by the compactor, the container must be kept on standby in the vehicle, and the operating efficiency of trucks and the like must be improved. Is significantly inhibited. Therefore, recently, a conveyor device that extends in the left and right direction has been installed in front of the compactor that pushes trash into the container,
The container can be transported left and right on the conveyor device. With this type of equipment, when pushing garbage into the container on the conveyor, containers that are successively carried in can be kept waiting on the conveyor, or the container with the garbage can be pushed into the vehicle. Can be kept until arrival.

An example of such a conveyor device is described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 58-23283. This conveyor device has two endless chains that move to place a container and face or traverse the compactor,
A flat bar that is placed in parallel with the distance between the front and rear wheels arranged at the bottom of the container and equidistant from each other and moves in a horizontal position to load the wheels of the container on each endless chain is continuous Many are attached to make it. Since the endless chain needs to be inverted at the positions of the sprockets provided at the left and right ends, a narrow flat bar having the same length as the chain link is used. Now, let the truck approach the conveyor by retreating the truck, etc., and from the flat bar on the endless chain on the near side to the flat bar on the endless chain on the back side via the top of the stand installed between the two chains. The container can be completely loaded on the conveyor device by pushing the container up to. Since a large number of flat bars are arranged with a small gap, the four wheels on the front, rear, left and right of the lower surface of the container can be placed on any flat bar.
Then, by driving the conveyor device to move the container in the left-right direction until reaching the front surface of the compactor, the container can be docked to the compactor. If another container arrives while the trash is being pushed into the container, it is placed on an open place on the conveyor device. When the pushing is completed, the conveyor device is moved to a place convenient for reloading to a truck, and the container can be repositioned so that the waiting container faces the front of the compactor.

[0004]

The above-mentioned conveyor apparatus has a sufficient length and space to accommodate two or more containers, and a flat bar is continuously provided on the endless chain. Since the containers are arranged side by side, there is an advantage that the container can be transferred from the loading bed of the truck to an arbitrary position on the conveyor device in a place where the container is not placed. On the other hand, when the container is transferred to the conveyor device, the position of the container is likely to be rough, and at this time, the container must be placed on the conveyor device while correcting the posture of the container. For this reason, the support rigidity of the frame located between the flat bar attached to the endless chain on the front side and the flat bar attached to the endless chain on the back side, so that the wheels are laid down while sending the container, etc. I have to give it up. Therefore, there is a problem that it is inevitable to increase the strength of the equipment, and the size of the structural product must be increased. The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problem, and an object of the present invention is to reduce the number of flat bars attached to an endless chain as much as possible and to arrange them at predetermined intervals. At the time of transfer from the truck to the conveyor device, it is possible to easily obtain a guide that allows the container to take a proper posture at a desired position, and thereby, in feeding the container to the conveyor device, An object of the present invention is to provide a container transfer device in a compactor container system that can solve the trouble of correcting the container posture and avoids maintaining excessive rigidity of equipment components.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, there is provided a conveyor device extending in the left-right direction on the front surface of a compactor for pushing dust into a container. The two endless chains moving in parallel to each other are arranged in parallel so as to be equidistant with the distance between the front and rear wheels arranged at the lower part of the container. The present invention is applied to a container transport device provided with a flat bar that moves while maintaining a posture. Its characteristic is that, as shown in FIG.
0A and 10B are flat bars 12 having a width that can be inverted together with the endless chains 10A and 10B at the positions of the sprockets 2L and 2R provided at the left and right ends.
Are arranged in pairs at a distance equal to the distance between the left and right wheels 5c, 5d (see FIG. 2) of the container 5. On the endless chains 10A, 10B where the flat bars 12, 12 are not arranged, the angle bars 11, 11 on which the wheels 5a to 5d cannot be mounted are attached. Then, a pair of flat bars 12, 12 arranged at a distance equal to the distance between the left and right wheels 5c, 5d of the container 5,
Control means 30 (see FIG. 8) for stopping at a position facing the compactor 3 and at a standby position is provided.

[0006]

[Operation] The vehicle on which the empty container 5 is placed is the conveyor device 2.
, Flat bars 12, 12 attached at predetermined intervals to the endless chains 10A, 10B are waiting at a position where the container 5 is transferred to the conveyor device 2.
The wheels 5a, 5a of the container 5 are endless chains 10A,
The container 5 is sent out to the conveyor device 2 while keeping a guide so as not to be placed on the angle bars 11, 11 attached to 10B. The mutual interval between the flat bars 12, 12 disposed between the chevron bars 11, 11 is equal to the left and right wheels 5 of the container 5.
The interval is the same as the interval between c and 5d, and the container 5 is stably placed on the flat bar 12. When the endless chains 10A, 10B of the conveyor device 2 are moved in a predetermined direction by the control means 30, the container 5 is fed sideways to a desired position. The container 2 is moved based on the control sequence and stopped at a predetermined position. For example, if trash is packed into the container 5 by the compactor 3 at that position,
The control means 30 instructs the endless chains 10A and 10B to move backward and moves to the standby position. When another container 5 is placed on the conveyor device 2, the conveyor device 2 can be appropriately driven to change the position of each container 5. The horizontal transport and the stop of the container 5 by the control means 30 are based on a simple and reliable sequence, and the garbage disposal work proceeds smoothly. Endless chain 10A, 1
The number of the flat bars 12 attached to the OB is significantly smaller than that of the chevron bar 11, and therefore, the simplification of the support frame structure and the like is achieved.

The position of the container 5 is guided so as to be perpendicular to the endless chains 10A and 10B while correcting the traveling direction of b. The rails 15A, 15B are fixedly supported by front and rear supports 2c, 2c of the conveyor device 2 and some intermediate supports (not shown), and the flat bars 1 which move by the movement of the endless chains 10A, 10B.
The rails 15A, 15 are controlled by the control described later.
B is stopped at a position facing B. The distance between the pair of rails 15A and 15B is set at a distance equal to the distance between the left and right wheels 5c and 5d of the container 5, but as can be seen from FIG. , 15B and the rails 15A, 15B for the other containers 5, a space is secured so that the containers 5, 5 are placed on the conveyor device 2 and do not interfere with each other. Therefore, the flat bars 12,1
The attachment to the endless chains 10A, 10B is also at a position corresponding to that.

Of the rails 15A and 15B, the pair of the rails 15A and 15B at the dust pushing position 40 on the left side is provided at a position facing the compactor 3, and the rail 15A at the standby / loading / unloading position 50 located on the right side thereof. , 15B
Are set so as to sandwich the above-mentioned longitudinal movement device 4. The entrance 1c through which a truck enters and leaves to carry in and out the container 5 is a front surface of a central portion where a turntable 19 to be described later is installed. Rails 15A and 15B are arranged. At the pair of rails 15A and 15B located at the above-mentioned dust pushing position 40, the container 5 is not transferred from the truck to the conveyor device 2. However, the container 5 on the conveyor device 2 is sent from the standby / load-in / out position 50 to the left,
After facing the compactor 3, the container 5 is moved to the compactor 3.
In order to be docked, the rails 15A and 15B are provided. These are different from the other rails 15A and 15B in that the compactor 3

That is, they are arranged so as to form a straight line with the rails 7A and 7B sandwiching the chain conveyor 6 constituting the evacuation moving device 8.

Referring to FIG. 3, an endless chain 10A,
Flat bar 12 and angle bar 1 attached to 10B
Let's elaborate 1 a little more. In order to place one container 5, flat bars 12, 12 located on the left and right are used. In this embodiment, eleven chevron bars 11 are arranged therebetween, and up to the flat bar 12 for the other containers 5, Eight chevron bars 11 are arranged. Since the flat bar 12 is interposed between the large number of angle bars 11, 11, when the container 5 is carried in by truck, if the position of the flat bar 12 is used as a guide,
When the container 5 is transferred to the conveyor device 2, there is an advantage that the truck can be moved to a desired position. The number of the angle bars 11 on the leftmost sprocket 2L in the figure is six, but this is caused by the spacing between the sprockets 2L and 2R. Therefore, it is not possible to face the rails 15A and 15B at that portion,
The endless chains 10A, 10B are moved in the forward and reverse directions, and in the state shown in the figure, the endless chains 10A, 10B are moved.
Since B is located at the right-hand limit, the above-mentioned six parts are not used, and therefore, there is no problem in the operation of the conveyor device 2.

The compactor 3 installed at the back left of FIG.
A hopper 20 is mounted on the main body, and the opening 20
The dust is put into the container 5 from above, and the dust can be compressed and pushed into the container 5 by a piston (not shown) that reciprocates by the expansion and contraction operation of the cylinder 3A provided at the rear part of the main body. A traction device 3B having a securing function is provided at a lower portion of the front surface of the compactor 3 and the like. The traction device 3B is engaged with a hook (not shown) provided on the lower surface of the container 5 which has reached the dust pushing position 40, and is provided with a rail. 1
The container 5 is drawn along 5A and 15B, and is fastened so that the container 5 does not separate from the compactor 3 during pushing of dust. When the pushing is completed, the traction device 3 is closed after the door of the container 5 is closed.
By the reverse operation of B, the container 5 is returned along the rails 15A, 15B so as to rest on the flat bars 12, 12. In the present refuse treatment facility, not only the trash can be pushed into the covered container 5A by the compactor 3, but also the garbage that does not require compression by loading and unloading the uncovered container 5B shown in FIG. 7 can be processed. . The uncovered container 5B is sent to the right from the standby / loading / unloading position 50 (see FIG. 1). When the refuse is loaded from above, the covered container 5A is transferred to the standby / loading / unloading position 50.
It may be necessary to move it to the trash pushing position 40. In this case, it is necessary to lift the open container 5B away from the flat bar 12, and the above-described lift device 9 is used. The lift device 9 includes a bed 29 for supporting the bottom surface of the open container 5B, plungers 28A for raising and lowering the bed 29, and a pit 1b for driving the plungers 28A, 28A.

k, 2k and the upper surfaces of the rails 15A, 15B are substantially in the same plane, and the wheels 5b, 5b are connected to the guide members 15a.
The container 5 is re-transferred to the conveyor device 2 while correcting the container 5 so that the container 5 is in the normal posture. In addition, container 5
If the wheels 5b are put on the angle bar 11 at the time when the transfer of the container 5 to the conveyor device 2 is started, the container 5 takes a slightly upward posture. Therefore, at that time the flat bar 1
It turns out that it is not listed in 2, 12 and can start over.

After the container 5 is placed at the standby / loading / unloading position 50 as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG.
To traverse to 0, the left row operation switch 32L of the control device 30 is turned on. Referring to FIG. 8, normally closed contact 31
a, the relay coil R ₁ is excited by power supplied through the operation switch 32L. The self-holding contact r
₁₁ and the relay contact r _12, r ₁₃ are connected, endless chains 10A and the geared motor 13 rotates forward, 10B begin to leftward. Even its contact part with the operation switch 32L is open, self-holding contacts r ₁₁ is the relay coil R
_{Since the} connection is maintained by the excitation of ₁ , the endless chain 10
A and 10B continue to move. Since there is no possibility that the right-row operation switch 32R in such operation or operation is turned on, the demagnetization state of the relay coil R ₂ is maintained, thus, the self-holding contacts r ₂₁ and the relay contact r _22, r _{twenty three}
Are not connected, and the reverse drive of the geared motor 13 is avoided. When the container 5 reaches the dust pushing position 40 shown by the dashed line in FIG. 1, the limit switch 31 is kicked by the striker 36, and the normally closed contact 31a is shut off at that time. The relay coil R ₁ is demagnetized and the self-holding contact r ₁₁
An open relay contact r _12, r ₁₃ is the geared motor 13 is stopped. Therefore, the endless chains 10A, 10A
When B has advanced a predetermined distance, the horizontal transport of the container 5 is stopped. Note that even if the striker 36 slightly exceeds the limit switch 31 and the normally closed contact 31a returns to the connected state again, the left-hand operation switch 32L is also switched to the self-holding contact r.
₁₁ is already in the cutoff state, and the geared motor 13 does not rotate.

Therefore, the traction device 3 on the front face of the compactor 3
When the arm B is extended and engaged with the hook on the container 5 side, the arm is contracted, and the container 5 is drawn along the rails 15A and 15B as indicated by a three-dot chain line.
At this time, the container 5 is secured in a state of being pulled by the compactor 3. The door on the rear surface of the container 5 is opened by a known door opening / closing device, and the dust put into the hopper 20 is packed into the container 5 while being compressed by the reciprocating motion of the cylinder 3A. When the pushing is completed, the door of the container 5 is closed, and the container 5 is closed by the reverse operation of the traction device 3B.
Is returned to the flat bars 12, 12. If a truck arrives during the above-described dusting operation and another container 5 is placed at the standby / loading / unloading position 50 in the manner described above, the container 5 containing the dust cannot be carried out. Therefore, the jack 22 of the forward and backward moving device 4 shown in FIG. 6 provided at the standby / loading / unloading position 50 is extended, and the bottom of the container 5 is pushed up by raising the plunger 22A.
The container 5 is tilted as shown by a broken line. Then, the plunger 21A is extended by the horizontal cylinder 21, and the container 5 is retracted to the position indicated by the dashed line. At this time, the front wheels 5a, 5a separate from the flat bars 12, 12 and
It has moved to 5A and 15B. The cylinder 26 of the retreating device 8 is extended, and the engaging member 27 is lifted so that the engaging piece 5f provided at the rear end of the container 5 fits into the engaging hole 27a. When the connection between the container 5 and the chain conveyor 6 is confirmed, the jack 22 and the horizontal cylinder 21
Is reduced, and the cylinder 26 is reduced with the rear part of the container 5 kept in the engagement member 27. The container 5 and the chain conveyor 6 are returned to the horizontal position, and the wheels 5b, 5b
Is lowered onto the rails 7A and 7B at the retracted position 60. The geared motor 25 of the chain conveyor 6 is driven, and the roller chain 23 moves rearward by pulling the container 5 via the engaging member 27. After a predetermined distance, the container 5 is stopped and the container 5 is moved to the retracted position 60 by the rails 7A and 7B.
It is completely loaded on. When the container 5 is retracted in this way, the standby / conveyance position 50 is opened, so that the container 5 at the dust pushing position 40 is fed to the right side.

At this time, the right row operation switch 32R of the control device 30 is turned on. In FIG. 8, the normally closed contact 3
1a, the relay coil R ₂ is excited by power supplied through the operation switch 32R. Self-holding contacts r ₂₁ and the relay contact r _22, r ₂₃ is closed, the power relay contacts r _22,
Geared motor 13 is supplied a path of the relay contact r _23, the geared motor 13 is driven to rotate in reverse, endless chains 10A, 10B to the right line. When the container 5 returns to the standby / load-in / out position 50 shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 1, the limit switch 31 is kicked by the striker 36, and the normally closed contact 31a is shut off at that time. Relay coil R ₂ is demagnetized to open the self-holding contacts r ₂₁ and the relay contact r _22, r _23, the geared motor 13 is stopped. If an empty truck has arrived, the container 5 may be loaded on it.
If the truck is not present and the container 5 retreated to the retreat position 60 is to be filled with garbage, the same right-hand line as described above is used to move the container 5 at the standby / load-in / out position 50 to the non-compressed trash input position 70. You just need to do it. If the container 5 at the retreat position 60 is returned to the standby / conveyance position 50 and the endless chains 10A, 10B are moved to the left, the empty container 5 can be moved to the dust pushing position 40. If the container 5 at the evacuation position 60 is returned to the standby / loading / unloading position 50 while the trash is being pushed into the container 5, the container 5 can be made to wait on the conveyor device 2 until it is loaded on the truck. By the way, when the uncovered container 5B is already located at the non-compression garbage input position 70 and the dust is loaded, the covered container 5A is moved from the dust pushing position 40 to the standby / loading position 50, or vice versa. It may be necessary to move the chain 10A, 10B. At this time, the open container 5 is lifted by the lift device 9.
If the whole of B is lifted and its wheels 5a to 5d are separated from the flat bars 12, 12, the covered container 5A can be freely fed. In addition, the bed 29 of the lift device 9 is lowered, and the open container 5B is moved to the flat bar 1.
2 and 12, it can be sent to the standby / load-in / out position 50 in the manner described above.

As can be seen from the above description, the flat bars, which are arranged in pairs at a distance equal to the distance between the left and right wheels of the container, are always in the standby / loading position, the dust pushing position, the non-compressed waste loading position. Since the container is stopped at the position, the operation for moving the container is simplified, and the control thereof is not complicated. That is, in performing the sequence operation for the next operation, occurrence of a mistake is avoided. In addition, the number of flat bars having a large weight can be reduced as much as possible by adopting the angle bar, so that the weight of the entire apparatus and the cost can be reduced. Further, the power required to drive the endless chain can be reduced, and the running cost can be greatly reduced.
The difference between the shape of the flat bar and the flat bar is that it can be easily identified from the driver's seat of a vehicle such as a truck approaching the conveyor device, and it is easy to give an indication of the position of the truck when loading and unloading containers. Accurate and quick loading and unloading work is achieved. In addition, if the wheels of the container are placed on the chevron bar, the stability of the container cannot be maintained, and if the wheels are placed on the chevron bar, the container may exhibit undesired behavior. An abnormality at the time of reprinting can be detected quickly, and the correction thereof is not troublesome.

In the above description, the entrance into which the truck enters is provided at the center of the conveyor device, because the front wall shown in FIG. However, if there are no obstacles such as walls,
Containers can be loaded and unloaded from any location on the front of the conveyor device. In addition, the compactor is provided at the back left of the processing equipment, but it can be appropriately selected and installed at the back of the conveyor device. The same applies to the installation location of the evacuation movement device. If it is not possible or necessary to secure an evacuation position for some buildings,
It goes without saying that there is no need to install a forward and backward moving device or a retreat moving device. In addition, no lifting device is required if an open container is not used. In that case, the non-compressed waste input position can be used as a standby position or a carry-in / out position. Of course, two or more compactors can be installed, and various forms are adopted in consideration of the length and processing capacity of the conveyor device.

[0023]

According to the present invention, the endless chain of the conveyor device is provided with a large number of angle bars and the required minimum flat bars at predetermined intervals, so that the wheels of the container are mounted on the angle bars. Therefore, the transfer of the container to the conveyor device can be performed using only the flat bar as a guide, so that the loading / unloading workability can be improved. In addition, since the mounting interval and the mounting position of the flat bar on which the wheels are mounted are determined as desired, the container can be accurately moved to the dust pushing position, standby / loading / unloading position, etc. with a simple control system. And the smooth operation of the refuse treatment equipment can be advanced with very reliable and quick operation by sequence control.
