Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and an appa- ratus for automatic sorting of different types of refuse, said refuse being fed into containers situated in a sorting apparatus depending on the possibility of reusing said refuse.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus of the type mentioned above, where the above-mentioned drawbacks have been elimi- nated.
  • the sorting apparatus Due to the fact that the sorting apparatus according to the invention automatically sorts the refuse in different predetermined groups and thereafter compresses it, emptying needs to take place very seldom and for a normal-sized family just every third week. This depends on the fact that the sorting apparatus automatically compresses the refuse to a minimum size, which results in less refuse. In this way the total volume of the refuse will become less. Also, the number of refuse transports will in this manner be reduced resulting in less discharge of exhaust gases and this means in addition thereto that the surroundings is taken care of. By using the sorting apparatus according to the invention the refuse collection taxes can also be reduced which involves that the cost for buying the sorting apparatus will very quickly pay itself.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a schematic perspective view of a sorting apparatus according to the present invention
  • Fig. 2 illustrates a lateral view, partly in section, of the sorting apparatus shown in Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 3 illustrates a cross-sectional view along the line A-A in Fig. 2 through the sorting appara ⁇ tus and
  • Fig. 4 illustrates a lateral view, partly in section, of the sorting apparatus shown in Figs. 1-3.
  • the sorting apparatus comprises a number of con ⁇ tainers 2 for collecting objects 3 in the form of waste or refuse 3 ' , said containers being at least to the number of two and in the illustrated example nine.
  • the sorting apparatus 1 comprises an identification unit 4, which is accessibly placed in its frontal part and is intended to identify that or those objects 3, which shall be thrown into the sorting apparatus 1, the outer dimensions of which can corres ⁇ pond to those of a built-in dish washing machine. Further, there is a throw-in cover 16 and an emptying cover 17.
  • a screening-off the function of which is to prevent an object 3 from getting into another container 2 than the one situated immediately beneath the cover 16.
  • Blocking means can be arranged, which prevent that the refuse 3' will be placed in a wrong container and that the covers 16 and 17 cannot be opened when the sorting apparatus 1 is in function.
  • the sorting appara ⁇ tus 1 is e.g. provided with on/off means, cooling of collected different types of refuse 3 * to prevent smell circulation and forced mechanical operations of normal ⁇ ly automatic function, which can be used if the auto- matics get stuck or in another way should not function normally.
  • the identification unit 4 can consist of a bar code reader or scanner and connected to the reader there is a minor electronic controlling the mechanics of the sorting apparatus 1.
  • the containers 2 in the sorting apparatus 1 are prefer ⁇ ably tube-formed but can, of course, have any other suitable form, e.g. quadratic, triangular, oval, cir ⁇ cular, etcetera.
  • an outer cover or supporting tube not illustrated on the drawing must be used at the place 8 in the sorting apparatus 1, where the compres ⁇ sion of the refuse in the containers 2 takes place, said outer supporting tube being able to take up the pressure, which occurs in a direction towards the side walls of the container during the compression of the refuse 3• .
  • Such a thin-walled container will be both easier to handle and cheaper to manufacture than the container 2 first described, which does not require an outer tube casing at the compression place 8 in order to function in the sorting apparatus 1.
  • an outer tube casing is used at the compression place 8, it can be formed of two tube casing halves which can be opened laterally so that they can be fed towards and there ⁇ after enclose the actual container just before and during the compression proper, whereafter the tube casing halves are opened and are retracted back in an open state to their starting position so that the sheet 14 on which the containers 2 are situated can again rotate freely.
  • the containers 2 are provided with a bar code informing about the identity of each container 2.
  • the lower edges of the containers 2 can be folded inwards and function as a stop for a sheet forming a bottom, said sheet being movable or pressable upwards and downwards inside the container 2.
  • the containers 2 can, if they are circular, have a diameter of about 150 mm and a height of about 500 mm.
  • the containers 2 stand vertically on the sheet 14, which is rotatably arranged at the bottom 13 of the sorting apparatus 1.
  • a compression device 7 comprising a piston unit 9, which is operated by air pressure or mechanical gears and having a diameter which is somewhat less than the diameter of the containers and which is depressable into the respective containers 2 in a vertical direc ⁇ tion for compressing the refuse 3' .
  • the piston unit 9 is pressed at the most downwards 40% of the total height of the container tubes.
  • a holding-up means Under the position for compression or the compression place 8 there is an additional reinforcement, a holding-up means, in order to resist the pressure exterted by the piston unit 9 against the bottom 13 of the sorting apparatus 1.
  • Detectors in the form of volume detectors 6 sense the amount of refuse 3' in the containers 2.
  • a motor 21 not illustrated in detail on the drawing, which can operate both the container feeding means 5 in the form of the rotatable sheet 14 and the compression device 7 together with its piston unit 9.
  • Behind the covers 20 at the lower part of the front side con ⁇ tainers can be provided for temporary storage of biolo ⁇ gically decomposable refuse.
  • the sorting apparatus 1 functions in the following manner. Identifying - sort ⁇ ing - putting-in - volume detecting - compressing - emptying - filling up.
  • a display lamp can show if the object 3 has been identified, which means that the sorting apparatus 1 is able to sort said object 3. If the object 3 cannot be identified, a button on the display 18, for material which cannot be identified, can be pressed or a container 2 under the throw-in cover 16 for mixed material can automatically be brought for ⁇ ward.
  • the sorting apparatus 1 When the sorting apparatus 1 has registered the type of material, of which the object 3 consists, the correct container 2 is circulated towards a place under the throw-in cover 16 and the sorting process has thereby taken place. If the button for such material which cannot be identified has been pressed, the container for mixed material is rotated forward (see above) . When the correct container 2 is in position the object 3 can be fed downwards into its container. Alternative ⁇ ly, the sorting apparatus 1 can automatically unlock the throw-in cover 16, whereupon the object 3 can be put into the sorting apparatus 1, it being possible to connect the cover 16 to exactly that container 2 which is placed under it so that it will not be possible to put the object 3 somewhere else.
  • the cover 16 After having thrown in the object 3, the cover 16 is closed, which will then automatically be locked by the sorting apparatus 1.
  • a sensing starts for controlling the amount of objects 3 or refuse 3' in the container 2. If the container 2 in question is full, the sorting apparatus 1 moves the container 2 into position for compression at the compression place 8. When the actual container 2 has stopped at the compres- sion place 8, the compression will start, if not thin- walled containers have been placed in the sorting apparatus 1, which at the compression are first en ⁇ circled by the outer tube casing, a piston unit 9 being pressed downwards into the container 2 and compresses the objects 3 to a minimum size. The piston unit 9 will then move to its starting position and the sorting apparatus 1 can again circulate its containers 2.
  • the sorting apparatus 1 will give a signal via a lamp on the display that the container in question is full. Then the piston for emptying is pressed or everything will take place automatically. The sorting apparatus 1 will then move the full container 2 into position for emptying. When the container 2 is placed in position the sorting apparatus 1 releases the security lock and it will be possible to open the emptying cover 17 and take out the container 2. Also, the last-mentioned steps can, of course, take place automatically.
  • the sorting apparatus 1 senses and keeps a check on which container place 12 that are not occupied on the rotatable sheet 14.
  • the button for container filling placed at the display 18 is pressed.
  • the sorting appa ⁇ ratus 1 will then rotate the sheet 14 so that a free container place 12 is brought into position at the cover 17.
  • the sorting appa ⁇ ratus 1 will unlock the cover 17, which can be opened.
  • the cover 17 has been opened, the container 2 is put into the free place and the cover 17 is closed.
  • the sorting appara ⁇ tus 1 will lock it and senses the identity of the container 2, which has been put in.
  • the sorting apparatus 1 will still func- tion, as it is the bar code marking on each container 2 which is sensed for the identification and feeding thereof.
  • the above-mentioned sensing of free container places 12 is carried out by a container detector 11.
  • the volume detector 6 at the compression device 7 will in addition to the compression device 7 also control a signal transmitter 10 in order to indicate when a container 2 is full and must be emptied at the same time as the container 2 is fed forwards to its emptying position in the sorting apparatus 1.
