Description

Technology area

The proposed technical solution relates to the field of utilities, in particular to containers and bins for garbage collection, and can be used to collect household waste in public places, in particular in educational institutions, transport service buildings, government agencies, catering areas in shopping and entertainment centers, in public places: in parks and squares, squares, universities and student campuses, airports and train stations, exhibition centers and congress halls. It can be used both indoors and outdoors, in an open area. In an epidemiological situation, it is also intended to collect personal protective equipment.

State of the art

The problem with the disposal of used personal protective equipment (masks and gloves) in the context of the global coronavirus pandemic is more acute than ever. Every day in Russia alone, according to the Ecology Committee, up to 10 million medical masks and other personal protective equipment are thrown away! Since ordinary waste bins in public places were not originally designed for such an amount of garbage, very often they turn out to be overfilled, people are forced to either put on top or tamp the accumulated waste on their own, which significantly increases the risk of contact with contaminated personal protective equipment. Moreover, cleaning personnel have to pick up and tamp the fallen debris, thereby exposing themselves to the risk of infection, since it has been proven that the coronavirus bacteria persist on the mask for about four hours. It is also important to dispose of personal protective equipment separately from the rest of the garbage for their further disinfection and recycling.

At the moment, there are a number of patented analogues of waste bins that have similar functionality for collecting waste. For example, in patent RU 99461 (published: 20.11.2010, Bul. No. 32), a MULTI-FUNCTIONAL CONTAINER FOR HOUSEHOLD WASTE is presented, containing a supporting body with a lid and at least three side panels, one of which is made with the ability to open and lock and equipped with at least one unit for loading household waste with a removable waste storage device installed under it inside the housing, the housing is equipped with an autonomous power supply system consisting of one or more solar batteries and a storage battery and connected to the light and / or sound equipment of the container. Also, the container is equipped with a waste pressing unit, and the waste pressing unit is equipped with a manual or electric drive, while the electric drive is connected to a storage battery.

However, this container lacks a fully mechanical foot pressing system.

Another patent RU 175025 (published: 11/16/2017, Bull. No. 32) presents an urn for household waste, containing a housing with a loading port for garbage and a lid, a waste container and means for pressing waste placed inside the housing, and the housing is equipped with a door to remove the waste container. The metal base of the body is equipped with a pedal for opening the lid of the loading window of the urn. The litter bin is equipped with an autonomous power source in the form of a solar battery that supplies the waste compaction facility and the control unit.

However, this urn also lacks a fully mechanical foot pressing system.

Disclosure of a utility model

The main difference and at the same time the advantage of the presented device is a fully mechanical foot pressing system, operated by pressing the lower pedal of the mechanical drive with the foot, while the drive does not require the supply of electricity and the installation of solar panels. The advantage of a mechanical press is its availability from the point of view of the absence of the need for an electrical connection and a relatively low manufacturing cost.

Also, the advantage of a mechanical foot press over a manual one is a more efficient application of force. Sufficient force for the foot press is provided by the lever system and the pressure of the user's own weight through his foot on the pedal.

From the point of view of collecting waste of personal protective equipment, a big advantage is the relatively large capacity of the urn due to pressing, as well as the absence of tactile contact with already used household waste, for example, masks / gloves / shoe covers, which often occurs when an ordinary urn is overcrowded.

As a result, an urn with household waste pressing is presented, containing a body with a front panel with an opening for placing garbage in a garbage bag inserted into the inner container of the garbage can, an opening mechanism (angular tilting from the rest of the garbage can) of the front panel for removing the filled garbage bag from the garbage can, a bottom stand for vertical stability of the urn, a mechanical foot pressing system with the ability to operate the system by pressing the foot on the mechanical drive pedal, while the pressing system consists of a pedal, a system of transmission levers connected to each other between the pedal at the bottom and the press at the top, as well as the press itself with the ability to move from top to bottom for pressing garbage in a garbage bag in an inner container.

In this case, the press mainly has a pyramidal shape with a narrowing of the shape downward to increase the efficiency of pressing and increase the useful waste volume of the bin.

The size of the trash bin hole is sufficient to accommodate the walkability of a standard food tray in catering establishments. The size of the trash can hole is universal for most household waste, including for the option with the installation of the trash can in public catering points, since the dimensions of the hole and the inner garbage container with a garbage bag take into account the passage through it of a standard food tray in catering establishments.

An optional lock can be installed on the front panel to protect the urn from unauthorized entry into it.

The overall dimensions of a single urn body are variable, as well as a variable execution of a single urn body from several modular sections of the same type.

Implementation of the utility model

The figures show: 1 - body, 2 - front panel, 3 - hole in the front panel, 4 - internal waste container, 5 - garbage bag, 6 - pedal, 7 - 1st lever (No. 1) connected to the pedal, from 4 lever transmission system, 8 - 2nd lever (No. 2), intermediate between 1st and 3rd levers; 9 - the 3rd lever (No. 3), intermediate between the 2nd and 4th levers; 10 - 4th lever (No. 4) between the 3rd lever and the press; 11 - press; 12 - a support under the pedal for vertical stability of the urn.

Arrows show: in fig. 1 - direction of pressing the pedal with the foot; in fig. 2 - directions of changes in the positions of the levers in the lever system when the pedal is pressed and the press is displaced downward; in fig. 3 - the direction of folding the front panel and the direction of removing the bag with garbage from the inner garbage container and trash can.

Description of the principle of the ballot box: Under pressure from the user's leg, the pedal (6) is lowered, the lever No. 1 (7) fixed on it sets the lever No. 2 (8) in motion (in this case, it lifts up), the lever No. 2 ( 8), in turn, transfers the movement to lever No. 3 (9), lever No. 3 (9) sets in motion the lever No. 4 (10) (in this case, lowers it down), thereby lowering the press (11) connected to the system of levers. Depending on the degree to which the pedal (6) is depressed with the foot, the press (11) is lowered into the inner container (4), thereby pressing the waste in the garbage bag (5).

Description of the removal of garbage from the urn. The front panel (2) is opened (folded away from the rest of the body (1) of the trash can) outward with an angular inclination and the formation of a gap between the panel (2) and the body (1), sufficient to replace the garbage bag (5). The garbage bag (5) is removed from the internal waste container (4) fixed on it. After that, a new empty garbage bag (5) is installed in the inner garbage container (4), the front panel (2) is returned to its original vertical position together with the entire outer casing (1) of the trash can.

The authors of the technical solution of the trash can, including for the collection of spent personal protective equipment, which allows you to tamp the waste without tactile contact with them, a mock urn was made and the corresponding tests were carried out, which showed that the urn performs its functions and the pressing mechanism is working properly ...
