  However, in the above-described conventional empty container collection device, there is an empty container in a slightly submerged state on a drainage groove that is long and parallel to the longitudinal direction of the road with respect to one side of the road. Furthermore, when there is an empty container in a state of being fitted between the drainage grooves, there is a problem in that it cannot be collected by the sweeping means of the empty container recovery device shown in Patent Document 1. There is.

Therefore, conventionally, an empty container positioned in the groove is collected by hand by hand while the worker walks along the drainage groove provided on the road.
However, since such work is performed while keeping one lane of the road closed to ensure the safety of the worker, the amount of traffic of the vehicle must be limited, and there is a problem of halving the road traffic function.
In addition, since workers walk on the road and collect empty containers between the grooves, it takes a long time, and in particular, the "convex" in the small irregularities that occur on the inner wall of the groove due to construction reasons. When the “recess” on the outer peripheral surface of the empty container is engaged with the “part”, it takes time to take out the empty container. As a result, “the road is closed for one lane. There was a big problem in road operation.

The purpose of the present application is to solve the above-mentioned problem. Not only the empty container on the introduction groove, but also the empty container located between the introduction grooves can be quickly It is intended to provide an empty container collection device that can be extracted on the road.

If the sliding plate 39 formed in (1) is provided in a state of extending on both sides, the life against wear on both sides of the tip 32 of the extrusion rod 30 is extended.

Further, the extrusion rod 30 is provided with an endless circulation band 44 provided so that the lifting member 45 can pass from below to above the lifting member passage 38, and the circulation thereof. The gaps P1 between the plurality of lifting members 45 provided in the band 44 are arranged with a gap P1 having a dimension larger than the longitudinal dimension 10a of the empty container 10.
Furthermore, it demonstrates in detail using FIGS. 4-6. As shown in FIG. 7 (B), the chain 44 spanning the sprockets 41, 41 provided at both ends of the extrusion rod 30 in an endless state is shown in FIG. A pull-up member 45 for applying force and pushing up from the introduction groove 5 is mounted as shown (known).
As shown in FIG. 6, the pull-up member 45 is provided with flat-plate attachments (mounting means) 46, 46 instead of a part of the outer links 44 b, 44 b of the chain 44, By fixing the attachment portions 48, 48 of the pieces 47, 47 by an arbitrary means, the chain 44 can be serialized and the pull-up member 45 can be integrated with the chain 44. In addition, the space | interval W3 (space) between the raising pieces 47 and 47 which comprise the raising member 45 should just be comprised so narrow that the empty container 10 is held from both sides and it does not fall out.

Regarding the driving of the circulation zone 44, a drive device (small engine) may be connected to the sprocket 41 of the circulation zone 44 and rotated.
As another example, as shown in FIG. 8, the axle 18a in the wheel 19 that supports the carriage 15 and the drive wheel (sprocket 41) in the endless circulation zone 44 are connected to each other to produce the carriage. 15, the drive wheel 41 (41 a) in the circulation zone 44 is rotated at a constant ratio with the rotation of the wheel 19, and the endless circulation zone 44 is rotated, so that a plurality of lifting members 45 (see FIGS. 4 and 6) may be moved up along the front surface 32 a of the tip 32 of the extrusion rod 30.

As a member constituting the power transmission mechanism (driving mechanism) 56, an axle 18a (for example, disposed on the front side in FIG. 8 and supported by a bearing provided in the carriage 15 to rotate the circulation zone 44) The gear wheel 58 that is integrally fixed to the axle 18) of the wheel 19, the gear 59 that is meshed with the gear 58 at an arbitrary gear ratio, and the bearing that is provided in the extrusion rod 30 can be rotated freely. It is supported by a gear 60 that can rotate integrally with the gear 59 via a supported axle 63, a gear 61 that is connected to the gear 60 by a chain 62, and a bearing that is provided on the gear 61 and the extrusion rod 30. A sprocket 41 (41a) or the like that can be integrally rotated via an axle 43 is used.
As an arbitrary gear ratio between the gear 58 and the gear 59, when the wheel 19 rotates at a substantially constant speed as the carriage 15 advances (driven by human power or a prime mover), the rotation speed (of the carriage 15). Corresponding to the (advance speed), the plurality of lifting members 45 are preferably raised at an appropriate speed in the state of FIG. The speed (lifting force) of the pull-up member 45 varies depending on the type of the highway and the region, and the width of the introduction groove 5 and the size of the empty container 10 are variously changed. What is necessary is just to set suitably, such as making it the speed corresponding to a progress speed.

Next, in the extrusion rod fixing means 66 shown in FIG. 9, the extrusion rod 30 is attached to the cart 15 so as to be tiltably fixed.
That is, a position (see FIG. 9A) where the tip 32 of the extrusion rod 30 is inserted into the introduction groove 5 and a position where the tip 32 is exposed on the road surface from the introduction groove (see FIG. 9B). A support portion (bearing) 35 in the main body portion 31 of the extrusion rod 30 is attached to the axle 18 of the carriage 15 so as to be able to reciprocate between them.

  In the push rod fixing means 66, 72 is a pivot support member fixed to the bearing member 73 in the carriage 15, and 68 is a pivot provided at the tip of the pivot support member 72, with the upper part being front and rear. A base portion 67a of a swing rod 67 that is swingable in the direction is supported so as to be swingable. Reference numeral 69 denotes a hollow pipe-like sliding cylinder, which has a swinging rod 67 inserted therein, and can freely move up and down along the outer peripheral surface of the swinging rod 67. 70 is a fixing means having an arbitrary configuration for enabling the sliding cylinder 69 to be fixed at an arbitrary height position of the swing rod 67. For example, the sliding cylinder 69 is provided with a push screw pin, and a handle 70a The screw may be tightened by turning to allow the sliding cylinder 69 to be fixed to the swing rod 67. Reference numeral 71 denotes a take-out arm having a base portion extended from the extrusion rod 30, and a tip portion is flexibly connected to the sliding cylinder 69 via a pivotal support portion 69 b.

  In the above configuration, when it is desired to move from the state of FIG. 9A to the state of FIG. 9B, that is, when the carriage 15 is to be moved on the road surface, the handle 70a is operated to fix the fixing means 70. Loosen (eg loosen the push spiral). Then, the sliding cylinder 69 descends to the state position shown in FIG. Accordingly, the extrusion rod 30 inevitably rotates about the support portion (bearing) 35 in the main body portion 31, and the tip portion 32 rises to the state position of FIG. 9B. Next, when the empty container 10 shown in FIG. 7 is collected, the state is returned to the state shown in FIG. That is, the sliding cylinder 69 is raised, the tip 32 of the extrusion rod 30 is inserted into the water guide groove 5 in FIG. 9A, and the sliding cylinder 69 is fixed to the swing rod 67 using the fixing means 70. .

  A use aspect is demonstrated about the thing of the said structure. As shown in FIG. 1, there is a drainage channel 6 toward the longitudinal direction of the highway, and a water guide groove 5 appears on the road surface 3. In addition, a large number of PET bottles are placed on the upper inlet 8 of the water guide groove 5 and between the inner walls 5a and 5a of the water guide groove 5 as shown in FIGS. The empty container 10 such as an empty can and an empty bottle is left in a state where it is left or sandwiched.

Next, when collecting the empty container 10, as shown in FIG. 4, the tip 32 of the extrusion rod 30 provided in a stationary state on the carriage 15 is placed in the introduction groove 5 existing below. In this state, the carriage 15 is pushed in the direction of the arrow 80 (the long point direction of the road in FIG. 1).
Further, as the carriage 15 is moved, the circulation zone 44 is rotated by an arbitrary prime mover. Then, the pull-up member 45 rotates in the direction of the arrow 81. As the prime mover in the case of FIG. 4, when the carriage 15 travels in the direction of the arrow 80, the wheel 19 rotates, and the sprocket 41 is rotated via the members constituting the power transmission mechanism (drive mechanism) 56. Thus, the circulation zone 44 is rotated, and the plurality of lifting members 45 are rotated in the direction of the arrow 81 at regular intervals.

  Then, with respect to the empty container 10 remaining inside the introduction groove 5, as can be understood from FIG. 7A, the front side 32a of the tip 32 of the extrusion rod 30 (if the chain 44 is present, the chain Indirectly from the upper surface of 44, when there is no chain 44, a force having a component in the cart traveling direction 80 is applied to the empty container 10 by directly pressing the member of the tip 32 of the extrusion rod 30. . In this case, when the friction resistance of the outer periphery of the empty container 10 with respect to the inner surface 5a of the introduction groove 5 is small, the empty container 10 floats on the road surface 3 because the front side 32a is inclined (there is θ1).

However, when the "concave part 10d" on the outer peripheral surface of the empty container 10 is engaged with the convex part 7a of the concave-convex part 7 of the inner wall 5a of the introduction groove 5, it is directed in one direction with a force in one direction. Even if it is pushed, the engagement becomes deep and it may be difficult to come off.
Therefore, as can be understood from FIG. 7B, when the pull-up member 45 is rotated in the direction of the arrow 81, the direction is different from “the force having the component of the carriage traveling direction 80”. "Upward force in the direction of arrow 81" is applied to the empty container 10 shockingly, and the outer peripheral surface of the empty container 10 meshing with the convex portion 7a of the inner wall 5a of the introduction groove 5 is applied. The "recess 10d" is disengaged by a force from different directions, or by a "force from two directions" of "a force in the direction of arrow 81" and "a force having a component in the carriage traveling direction 80" The empty container 10 is removed from the convex portion 7a by sliding to the direction in which the empty container 10 is easily detached, and the empty container 10 is floated on the road surface 3.

  In this way, the empty container 10 remaining on the upper introduction port 8 of the water guide groove 5 or inside the introduction groove 5 is attached to the rotating chain 44 and circulates one after another. 45, it is transported upward in the state shown in FIG. In this case, the empty container 10 may be sandwiched between the pull-up pieces 47, 47 or may be pushed forward by the front edge 49 of the pull-up piece 47. Reference numeral 52 denotes a protective cover for preventing the empty container from popping out as required. The empty container 10 rises along the inner surface of the protective cover 52. 53 denotes a sliding plate of the empty container 10. The empty container 10 transferred above the rear portion 33 of the extrusion trough 30 shown in FIG. 4 is dropped by the pulling member 45. It is for moving to the space 23 of the accommodating part 21 from.
