Definitions

  • a bracket and cover assembly in which the bracket serving to support the garbage can or other container is secured to a vertical axle which is mounted for rotation in bearingsadjacent one vertical side edge of a door opening, and a coupling link hingedly connects the bracket to the door so that the bracket with the garbage can thereon is swung out when the door is opened, the bearings for the vertical axle being arranged on one vertical side member of a frame which is intended to be mounted in the door opening of the cupboard, the door thereof being also hung on said frame by means of hinges of its own, said bearings being located immediately inside the plane of the door opening.
  • a link which is universally hinged at its ends provides for a restricted lost motion between its two hinge points in order after initial [56] Reference Cited lost motion to form an anchorage between the frame and the UNITED STATES PATENTS cover of the can for swinging the latter upwardly away from 2,343,409 3/1944 Goldberg 312/274 the garbage can into open position when the can is swung out 2,558,939 7/1951 Dornbush 312/319 by the door being opened.
  • This invention relates to means for supporting garbage cans and like receptacles in structures such as closets and other related enclosures, and includes means connected between a door for the closet and the supporting means operable to move the support means and garbage cans out of the closet upon the opening of the door, and such inventions are deemed properly classifiable in accordance with United States Patent Office classification in Class 312, Subclass 274.
  • a device which has to be anchored within the cupboard is not suited to realize the line of thought which lies behind the provision of the bracket-type supporting device referred to above and which has the object of combining the door frame, the door and the bracket-type supporting device into a unit of manufacture.
  • bracket-type supporting devicesuggested by the present invention entirely eliminates the above-mentioned disadvantages, and at the same time this device provides the advantage that it constitutes a unit which canbe completely assembled in the factory and then only requires later mounting in the door opening of a cupboard.
  • this bracket-type supporting device the bracket serving to support the garbage can or other container is secured to a vertical axle which is mounted for rotation in bearings adjacent one verticalside edge of the door opening, and-a coupling link hingedly connects the bracket to the door so that the bracket with the garbage can thereon is swung outwards when the dooris opened.
  • the bearings for the vertical axle are arranged on one vertical side member of a frame which is intended to.
  • a link which is universally hinged at its ends provides for a restricted lost motion between its two hinge points in order after initial .lost motion to form an anchorage between the frame. and the cover of the can for swinging the latter upwardly away from the garbage can into open position when said can is swung out by the door 'being opened.
  • FIG. 1 is a side elevational view, partly in section, of the supporting device, the door of the cupboard being omitted;
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the device
  • FIG. 3 is a side elevational view of the cover of the device
  • FIG. 4 is a top plan view of the cover assembly.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
  • a door frame 1 composed of angle iron members and arranged to be mounted in a per se known manner in the door opening of a garbage cupboard (not shown).
  • a vertical axle 3 is rotatable in these bushes, and the lower end of the axle is suitably supported on the horizontal frame bottom member.
  • a tube 4 Passed onto the axle 3 between the two lower bearing bushes 2 is a tube 4 which is nonrotatably connected to the axle by means of stop screws (not shown).
  • a T-rod of iron 5 is arranged adjacent the lower end of the tube 4, said rod projecting horizontally from said tube and being fixed in position in that it is welded to the tube and in that an oblique brace 6 is fixed by welding to the tube and the T-rod.
  • a cylindrical ring 7 and two parallel crossbars 8 located inside the ring 7 are fixed by welding to the upper side of the T-rod.
  • the ring 7 and the crossbars 8 form together with the T-rod 5 a bracket for supporting a sheet metal garbage can or a garbage collection paper bag 9.
  • the ring 7 is somewhat eccentric with respect to the T-rod 5 for a purpose that will be explained in the following.
  • the bracket is also connected to the tube 4 by two oblique braces 10 which are welded to the ring 7 and to the tube 4 to increase the load supporting capacity of the device.
  • a door 11 for closing the door opening in the frame 1 is hung on the same vertical frame side member as the axle 3 with the aid of hinges 12 of its own, which are arranged on the outwardly facing side of said frame side member.
  • the bracket 5, 7, 8 and the door 11 are relatively coupled by means of a link 13 which is connected to the ring 7 and the door 11, respectively, by hinges l4 and 15.
  • the bracket 5, 7, 8 is altogether inside the frame 1.
  • the bracket Upon opening of the door the bracket is taken along in the opening movement, and the eccentric location of the ring 7 on the T-rod 5 provides a slightly shorteneddistance of outward swinging for the bracket.
  • the door is entirely relieved of the weight of the bracket and the garbage can thereon and the door can thus be opened and closed without any impeding effect through a friction force generated by said weight in the door hinges.
  • the door provides a certain lever action, which facilitates the manipulation of the door.
  • the device With the use of the bracket-type supporting device for supporting a garbage collection paper bag 9 the device includes a holder ring 16 for fixation of the mouth of the paper bag.
  • This ring 16 is pivoted to an arm 17 which is detachably clamped to the upper end of the axle 3.
  • the latter may be composed of two parts united by means of a clamping sleeve 18. In such a case possibly only the lower one of said two parts need be used when rigid sheet metal garbage cans are supported on the bracket.
  • a lug 20 is mounted at the underside of the horizontal frame top member and can be swung about a vertical axis.
  • a link 24 is arranged between said lug 20 and another lug 21 which is rigidly secured to the upper side of a cover 22 which is hingedly mounted on the holder ring,16 with the aid of a hinge 23.
  • Said link 24 is formed by a sleeve-shaped member 25 which is connected to the lug 20 for swinging movement about a horizontal axis, and a rod-shaped part 26 which is inserted in the member 25 and clamped in a suitable position therein by means of a clamping screw 27.
  • the rod-shaped part 26 passes through the lug 21 on the cover 22, a hole in the lug being sufiiciently large to permit angular deflection of the part 26 in relation to the lug 21.
  • the part 26 is freely movable through the lug 21 so that the effective length of the link 24 between the pivot points determined by the lugs and 21 is variable.
  • a head 28 is arranged on the rod-shaped link part 26 to prevent withdrawal of said part from the lug 21.
  • the length of the link 24 is so dimensioned by reason of the relative position between the link parts 25 and 26 that the link does not exert any pull on the cover 22 when the door 11 is closed as shown in FIG. 4.
  • the bracket-type supporting device When the door is opened by counterclockwise swinging movement with respect to FIG. 4, the bracket-type supporting device will also be swung counterclockwise, there being lost motion between the cover 22 and the link 24 during the initial portion of the opening movement of the door because the link part 26 is moved through the lug 21 on the cover 22.
  • the described cover operating mechanism provides a distinct movement of the cover into open and closed position, respectively, when the door is opened and closed, respectively, and brings the great advantage .
  • the mechanism is incorporated as an integral part with the unit formed by the frame, the supporting device and the door.
  • the embodiment described can be modified for instance by making the two parts 25, 26 of the link 24 telescopically movable one in the other to provide the requisite lost motion, the rod-shaped part 26 being immovable, but arranged for universal pivotal movement in the lug 21.
  • the pivot point of the link 24 on the horizontal frame top member is suitably placed above the path described by the hinge 23 when the bracket-type supporting device is swung through the frame, and the lug 21 of the cover 22 is suitably arranged diametrically opposite the hinge 23.
  • the location of these details, however, can be varied without jeopardizing the contemplated function of the device.
  • a bracket-type supporting device arranged to permit outward swinging thereof and serving to support garbage cans or other containers in closets, cupboards, sink cupboards, and like structures, which have a door hinged to one vertical side edge of the opening for closing said opening, said device comprising a bracket for supporting a garbage can or other container secured to a vertical axle mounted for rotation in bearings adjacent said side edge, and a coupling link hingedly connecting the bracket to the door so that the bracket with the garbage can thereon is swung outwards when the door is opened, wherein the bearings for the vertical axle are arranged on one vertical side member of a frame which is intended to be mounted in the door opening of the cupboard, the door thereof being also hung on said frame by means of hinges of its own, said bearings being located immediately inside the plane of the door opening, and a further link which is universally hinged at its ends provides for a restricted lost motion between its two hinge points in order after initial lost motion to form an anchorage between the frame and the cover for swinging the latter upwardly away from the garbage
