Abstract

In this rubbish collector, the inside of which is divided into several compartments by inner walls (2, 5) and in which the outer walls have apertures (4) forming accesses to these compartments limited by the inner walls (5) and the plane (8), the flaps (7) forming the upper closing surfaces (7) are hinged at the peak (6) and the flaps (1) forming the floor (1) are hinged at the bottom of the inner walls (2) and rest obliquely to the bottom of the outer walls on projections (3) therefrom, thus making the inner walls (2) terminating beneath the upper edge of the collector vertically movable. To operate the rubbish collector there is also at least one spindle (9) passing through the outer walls of the collector about which the latter can be rotated through 360°.

Description

Accident collection container

The invention relates to a waste collecting container, the interior of which is formed by a boulder and outer walls running vertically to this, is divided into several compartments by partition walls arranged vertically to the floor.

The reuse and differentiated processing of waste material is becoming more and more important, and there is therefore an increasing need to separate waste at the point at which it originates and close to where it originated. On the one hand in order to separate reprocessable from non-reprocessable materials and on the other hand to achieve a separation among the reprocessable materials depending on the further processing required. Due to the separation already at the place of origin and close to the place of origin, the reuse of the existing material can only be used economically in many cases. In order to achieve this separation, it is already known to be at or near the place of origin, e.g. a household or commercial enterprise to provide several containers, or to provide several sections in a single container. The provision of several containers has the disadvantage of the large space requirement and, moreover, each individual container must also be handled individually, which is time-consuming, annoying and uneconomical. With the second type, namely to provide several sections in a single container, there is the disadvantage that the reloading into larger containers is extremely difficult and troublesome.

The invention, as characterized in the claims, solves the task of manually separating waste in a single waste container into all known and desired fractionations of waste, subsequently separated in a single, coherent ar reload the process, to be transported separately, and finally to a separate reprocessing. The advantages achieved by the invention are essentially to be seen in the fact that the known forms of garbage removal, compost base collection, recycling of waste materials and special waste collection in a single waste collection container as well as in a single, continuous, labor and cost-optimized separation, collection and transport system, for example in a cohesive manner can be summarized with conventional garbage disposal.

In the case of a waste collection container according to the invention, each individual compartment can also be designed to have a conical shape, which brings about the desired compression of the waste material on the other hand, and on the other hand considerably facilitates the discharge of the individual fractions of the collection material during the emptying process in the opposite direction.

Overall, the waste collection container is also characterized by behavioral theory-based and technical arrangement, practical and variable dimensioning of the individual compartments, largely open and easily accessible construction.

In the following the invention will be described by way of example only with reference to the drawing. The drawing is a perspective view of a waste collection container according to the invention in a transparent embodiment, so that the inner walls, bottom and lid flaps and parts of the actuating mechanism can be seen.

According to the drawing, the waste collection container is designed as a parallelepiped and its interior is divided by two inner walls 5 which are inclined to the floor 1. These inner walls 5 meet in the area of upper edge of the container and form an apex 6. The space delimited by the outer walls, the sides 5 and the bottom 1 is divided by further inner walls 2, so that compartments of different sizes are created here. In order to ensure access to the compartments, the front and the rear outer wall of the parallelepiped are each provided with an opening 4, this opening being limited by the plane 8 and parts of the inner walls 5. The inner walls 2 end in the region of the space delimited by the side wall openings 4 and the upper parts of the inner walls 5 at different distances from the apex 6. The bottom 1 of the container is inclined towards the underside of the inner walls 2 and towards the underside of the outer walls standing flaps 1 are formed, the flaps 1 resting on the outer wall projections 3. By lifting the inner walls 2 in the direction of the height, the distance of the flaps 1 to the outer walls is shortened so that the

Flaps 1 leave the rest division on the outer wall protrusions 3 and fall due to the given mass attraction of the earth around the axis of rotation on the underside of the inner walls 2 in the downward direction. That formed in the by the outer walls and inner walls 2

Fan material is now falling down.

For example, in the compartments which coincide spatially at the interfaces of a large collection container which is located below the waste collection container and is open at the top, the interior of which is divided into compartments by inner walls 2 and the bottom 1 of which is formed by flaps 1. The arrangement of the waste collection containers is such that the arrangement of the inner walls 2 at the contact point spatially coincide with one another when the waste collection container is placed or pushed onto the large collection container (grid on grid). The large collection container can either be equipped with wheels or be on a vehicle, or it can be a container. The waste collection container is covered by the flaps 7 forming the upper end faces 7. It is advantageous if the pivot axis of the flaps 7 is in the region of the apex 6. In order to empty the waste collection container, on the one hand the flaps 1 are actuated by lifting the inner walls 2, on the other hand the container was pivoted in the region of the axis of rotation 9 by up to 180 ° so that the flaps 7 of the upper end faces 7 are opened due to gravity , and which is in the of the outer walls, the

Inner walls 5 and the flaps 7 formed compartments waste can be tilted into a device for removal. For example, in a further part of a large collection container, which is spatially divided by an inner wall, which is provided in a spatial separation by an intermediate wall provided directly next to the part of the large collection container, the interior of which is open at the top and formed by inner walls 2 and flaps 1. When emptying the compartments of the waste collection container formed by the outer walls, the inner walls 5 and the flaps 7 by swiveling by up to 180 in the region of the axis of rotation 9, in the region of the interior of the container formed by the outer walls, the inner walls 5 and the bottom 1 the

Gravity also pulled the inner walls 2 and the flaps 1 hinged to them in the direction of the apex 6. By vertically and diagonally changed chastity of the axis of rotation 9 in the area of the outer walls of the waste collection container, the center of gravity of the container is redetermined so that it is pivoted by a further 180 ° due to gravity, or is also pivoted back 180 into the original starting position before emptying the top of the container . In a coherent process, the flaps 7 fall in the direction of the outer walls of the waste collection container, on the other hand the inner walls 2 and the flaps 1 in the direction of the outer wall projections 3. The container is emptied and ge close and can be lifted and lifted from the large collection container, for example, by repositioning the axis of rotation 9 on the outer walls of the waste collection container in a vertically and diagonally displaced manner.

In the drawing, it is also pointed out that the inclined inner walls 5 of the waste collecting container, which converge in a vertex 6, can also end in a platform, a cylindrical surface or the like. Furthermore, that the flaps 1 can also be articulated on the underside of the outer walls, that the restoring surfaces referred to as side wall projections for the flaps 1 can also be inner wall projections. Furthermore, that the bottom 1 and the upper end faces 7 of the container can be designed to be displaceable, so that when the bottom 1 or the end faces 7 are pulled off, the material located in the compartments falls out. There is also the possibility of one or more walls forming the outer walls of the waste collection container

Remove parallelepipeds and apply both reductions and extensions of the container with inclined container walls.
