PT89340B - DEVICE FOR CONTINUOUS GARBAGE COLLECTION AND COMPACTION - Google Patents

Abstract

The device for continuously collecting and compacting refuse comprises a transverse structural unit of compacting plates (1) mounted on a transverse drive axle side by side. The drive axle is mounted inside a rear loading opening (4) which has a linked bulging and lower lid (5) which is supported on spiral springs(7) and which is moved when an excess of compacted refuse would restrict the rotation of the compacting plates. The lid is forced to open and exerts pressure on the springs so that the compacted refuse blocks are freed. A compacting sheet (9) is held in a horizontal slide guide (20) and is driven by piston (11).

DEVICE FOR COLLECTION AND CONTINUOUS COMPACTION OF GARBAGE top (5) forced to press the springs (7), verifying that the articulation in question allows the release of stuck debris. It also includes an articulated longitudinal compaction plate (9) fixed on a horizontal sliding guide (10), said articulated plate (9) driven by a symbol (ll) and having its action inside the waste collection box to carry out the collection and continuous compaction of waste.

The present invention refers to devices that consist of a transverse set of compacting plates connected to the same axis that is fixed inside a rear garbage loading mouth, equipped with an articulating, bulging and lower top, positioned on spiral molds. , whose top has an articulation activated when the excess of compaction debris impedes the course of the mentioned compacting plates, the said top being consequently forced to press the spiral mills to verify that the articulation in question allows the release of the stuck debris, continuing the compaction operation. It also includes an articulated longitudinal compacting plate, fixed on a sliding guide, said plate being actuated by a plunger and having its action inside the waste collection box to carry out the continuous collection and compaction of waste.

The relevant technology currently has a collection box, coupled to a truck chassis, which has a side garbage loading mouth located at the front of the collection, verifying that the garbage entering the said mouth is pressed in the front direction. -reading by a toothed plate - non-continuous action-, whenever it is driven by a hydraulic cylinder, the residues being compressed against the back of the box and by this place its expulsion before tipping performed by two cylinders hydraulic.

Within the same technological area, there is a collection box attached to a truck chassis, which has a rear garbage loading mouth, verifying that the garbage entering the said mouth is compacted in the rear-front direction by a compacting plate. non-continuous action whenever it is driven by a hydraulic cylinder, thus compacting the residues against the front of the collection box and being expelled by the action of another cylinder, with longitudinal action, in the front-rear direction , which pushes the compacting plate itself, with the loading mouth tilting.

It also presents, in the focused conventionalism, a collection box, coupled to a truck chassis, which has a rear garbage loading mouth, the garbage being introduced into the said mouth compacted by means of two articulated plates, one positioner θ other compactor, driven by hydraulic cylinders. The compaction operation is carried out by means of two manual lever controls - non-continuous action - thus compacting the residues against a transverse plate in the rear-front direction, this plate is controlled by a telescopic hydraulic cylinder and checking the expulsion of the by the return of the aforementioned plate to the rear of the collection and tipping box of the loading mouth.

Finally, there is a collection box, attached to a truck chassis, which has a rear garbage loading mouth, the waste being introduced by said mouth compacted by the angular reciprocating movement of a vertical positioning plate or fin, which describes trajectories of approximately 180 °, and which is responsible for loading and compacting waste against a transverse plate in the rear-front direction, this plate is controlled by a telescopic hydraulic cylinder, checking the expulsion of the waste by returning the aforementioned plate to the rear of the collection box and tipping of the loading port.

device for continuous collection and compaction of waste, object of the present invention, was specially developed to allow the collection and continuous compaction of waste, residues, presenting technological improvements that allow greater speed, efficiency and safety in a collection box fitted to a truck chassis . For better understanding, the drawings in which:

Figure 1 represents a side view of a refuse collection box in which the mechanical transmission is seen.

Figure 2 represents a side sectional view of the same waste collection box, showing some of the proposed devices.

Figure 3 represents a sectional view of the filler mouth.

Figure 4 represents a rear view of the garbage collection box, showing the mechanical transmission.

As shown in the Figures, the devices for continuous garbage collection and compaction, consist of a transverse set consisting of compacting plates (l) arranged radially and equidistantly on the same transverse axis (2) fixed on opposite bearings (3) of the parts sides of a loading mouth (4), rear, which is provided with an articulating, bulging and lower top (5), with rear and upper hinges (6), and which will rest on spiral grips (7) fixed superiorly, by means of a vertical axis (7-A) to a support welded on the outside and bottom of the worktop (5), which has its articulation under continuous back and forth movement caused exclusively when excess compaction debris occurs, which prevent the plate course (l); the continuous movement of back and forth is permitted by the hinges (6) - adjusted on transverse and convex axes fixed at the rear and bottom of the mouth (4) - and by the action of the top itself (5) on the springs (7) , allowing the release of stuck debris that will then be compacted.

Each compacting plate (l) is formed by segments of wraparound profiles (lA), which have regular spacing between them which, in the continuous rotation of the plates (l), allow the passage of the same plates (l) by cleaning forks (8 ) fixed superiorly to the load port structure (4).

Said static cleaning forks (8), has a dual function, that is, they are responsible for cleaning the plates (l) and for directing the waste or debris to an articulated longitudinal compacting plate (9) which is fixed on a horizontal sliding guide (10), the plate (9) being driven by a cylinder (ll) and acting on the waste collection box.

transversal set of compacting plates (l) and driven by a hydraulic motor (12), which receives energy from a pump (13) driven by the vehicle's power take-off, this energy being distributed through control and safety valves.

At the end of the axis of the hydraulic motor (12), a gear wheel (14) is coupled which, through a chain (15), transmits a rotational movement to a second gear wheel (16) integral with a third gear wheel (17) , both of which (16 and 17) are mounted on a single bearing, verifying that the third gear wheel (17) transmits by means of another chain (18) rotational movement to a fourth gear wheel (19) coupled to the transverse axis ( 2) the transverse set of compacting plates (l), transmitting the rotation movement.

The mechanical transmission described may, at its discretion, be formed by a set of gear wheels / crankshaft driven by a hydraulic cylinder.

The cylinder (ll) is actuated by means of a lever of the hydraulic control of the vehicle, initially causing the movement of the lower part of the articulated longitudinal compacting plate (9), which once lowered captures the compacted waste by the plates (l), occurring sequentially advancing the articulation plate assembly (9) in the rear-front direction, through the slide guide (10), inside the collection box, completing the compaction of the garbage or debris.

The articulating plate (9) ® constituted by a plate in such a way as to form an obtuse angle, when seen in profile that its upper part is connected by means of hinges (9-a) to a rectangular frame (9-B), moving this set inside the garbage collection box.
