ARTHUR REGINALD VON KELLER, F BROOKLYN, NEW YORK maon QF COLLECTING, TRANSPORT ING, AND DUKPING- REFUSE, SUCH 1'8 GARBAGE Application filed larch 10, 1930. Serial No. 437,020.
The object of the present invention is to provide a novel method of collecting, transporting and dumpin refuse such as garbage and which employs t e use of a type of refuse carrier constructed so as to move the refuse from the rear or reception point of the receptacle to the front thereof, the receptacle being capable of oscillation or rotation, and normally disposed with its axis downwardly mw clined toward the front. Means are provided for tilting the receptacle and its carrying members, for discharge of the refuse. The invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a side elevation of an apparatus for carrying out the method.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of-tbe same, the rece tacle being shown partly broken away,
$5 3 is a transverse sectional elevation on so the l ne 4-4, Fig. 2; and
Fig. 4 is a rear end elevation of the receptacle and its immediate supporting members. In the drawings, I have indicated at 1 the side frame members of a truck chassis. l woted at 2, upon the truck frame is a subframe 3. At the forward end of the subhaft 6 is carried b a tank receptacle member-'7 axlalso 1 of the atter. Near the opposite end of t e tank receptacle'member 7 is a channeled rin 8. %ithin the ring and supportin the tank receptacle near its end opposite s aft 6 are two rollers 9. Each roller is pivotally mounted in a supporting bracket 10, carried by sub-frame 3. The pivotal points 2 are disposed/ rearwardly o the center of gravity of tank rece tacle 7, and .the latter normally s so inclined orwardly as indicated in Flg. 1 of the drawings. In such position the sub-frame 3 may rest upon a strut 11 connecting the side frame members 1 of the-chassis frame. Fixed to shaft 6 is a gear wheel 12 in mesh with the pinion 13 carried by shaft 4, shaft 4 being suitably carried by the sub-frame 3. In practice shaft 4 will be operatively connected to the truck motor so that the tank receptacle 7 may be rotated or oscillated, the connectionsforming no part of the present invention and not being shown.
At its rear end the tank receptacle is provided with acover member 15 hinged at 16,- and the cover member may be provided with a hinged door 17, through the opening of 56 which barrels or cans of refuse may be dumped into the tank receptacle whilst maintaining the major end portion closed. Suitable means will be provided for elevating the tank receptacle to dumpin position. For example, a hydraulic cylin er 18 may have its piston rod 19 connected to a lever 20, secured to sub-frame 3 for raising the same to the dotted line portion a, Fig. 1, which is a suitable dumping position.
' In the o ration of the device, the tank receptacle w1ll receive the refuse throu h door 17, and by the means above descri d, or through other suitable means, the tank receptacle will be oscillated or rotated in" its inclined position. This will tend to carry the refuse to the front end of the tank receptacle and gradually cause it to become com act. In other words, the operation of the evice automaticall 'trims the contents of the refuse tank. e angle of the tank during rotation may be approximately 70,
or as desired. When the tank receptacle is filled, it may be trans rted iiflthe truck to dumping osition, an the dumping effected 30 as above escribed.
Havin described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure b Letters Patent is as follows: A
A method of collecting, transporting and dumping refuse such as garbage which consists in placing the garbage in a c lindrical container closed at its rear end an rotating the container with the axis thereof inclined from the horizontal toward the rear end of the container until 'the garbage is compressed by gravity and substantially free from pockets and air spaces anfi thence dumping the ga rbage as a compacted mass, from the con- 5 camel:
In testimony whereof, I have signe i my name to this specification.
