Description

La présente invention est relative à une poubelle. Elle sera notamment destinée à une utilisation urbaine. Actuellement, il existe des poubelles qui font partie du mobilier urbain, elles sont placées à poste fixe dans les rues.The present invention relates to a dustbin. It will in particular be intended for urban use. Currently, there are garbage cans that are part of the street furniture, they are placed at a fixed post in the streets.

Il est connu des poubelles dont le récipient à détritus est fixé sur un poteau ancré dans le sol ou fixé sur un mur. Ce récipient est fixé de façon amovible de manière à pouvoir être vidé. Le récipient est aussi verrouillé sur le support au moyen d'un cadenas ou d'une serrure à clé triangulaire par exemple. Elles sont de plus réalisées dans un matériau léger de manière à pouvoir être facilement manoeuvrées.Garbage cans are known, the trash receptacle of which is fixed to a post anchored in the ground or fixed to a wall. This container is removably attached so that it can be emptied. The container is also locked on the support by means of a padlock or a triangular key lock for example. They are also made of a light material so that they can be easily maneuvered.

Le principal inconvénient de ces poubelles réside dans le fait qu'il est impératif de verrouiller au moyen d'une clé le récipient sur son support après le vidage de la poubelle. Si ce verrouillage n'est pas effectué, il s'en suit des renversements intempestifs des poubelles déversant les détruis sur le trottoir, ceci du fait du vandalisme par exemple.The main drawback of these bins is that it is imperative to lock the container on its support with a key after emptying the trash. If this locking is not carried out, it results in untimely overturning of the bins dumping the destroyed on the sidewalk, this due to vandalism for example.

Un autre inconvénient de ce type de poubelle est la fragilité du récipient. En effet, les récipients étant réalisés dans des matériaux légers pour faciliter le vidage, il est aussi facile, pour certains vandales, de détériorer ces récipients.Another drawback of this type of bin is the fragility of the container. Indeed, the containers being made of light materials to facilitate emptying, it is also easy, for some vandals, to damage these containers.

Il est connu également du document DE-B-1 116595 une poubelle à utilisation urbaine, comportant un bâti ancré dans le sol supportant un récipient à détritus qui est articulé à sa partie basse sur le bâti pour en permettre le vidage. Des moyens élastiques supportés par le bâti sont prévus pour assurer un verrouillage du récipient à sa partie supérieure et le maintenir en position de blocage.It is also known from document DE-B-1 116595 a trash can for urban use, comprising a frame anchored in the ground supporting a trash receptacle which is articulated in its lower part on the frame to allow emptying. Elastic means supported by the frame are provided for locking the container at its upper part and keeping it in the locked position.

Dans un tel dispositif, on retrouve un des inconvénients précités à savoir qu'il est impératif de verrouiller le récipient sur le bâti après le vidage de la poubelle. En effet, lorsque la poubelle a été vidée, le récipient reste en position basculée, une deuxième intervention est nécessaire pour replacer le bac en position verticale d'utilisation et autoriser le verrouillage.In such a device, there is one of the aforementioned drawbacks, namely that it is imperative to lock the container on the frame after emptying the trash. Indeed, when the bin has been emptied, the container remains in the tilted position, a second intervention is necessary to return the bin to the vertical position of use and allow locking.

Le but de la présente invention est de proposer une poubelle dont le verrouillage se fait automatiquement après vidage sans intervention particulière supplémentaire, ce qui maintient en place la poubelle d'une manière sûre, le verrouillage étant inaccessible. De ce fait, on évite tout renversement intempestif des poubelles.The object of the present invention is to provide a bin, the locking of which is done automatically after emptying without additional special intervention, which keeps the bin in place in a secure manner, the locking being inaccessible. This avoids any untimely overturning of the bins.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer une poubelle dont le vidage est facilité par simple pivotement du récipient de la poubelle lorsqu'elle est déverrouillée.Another object of the present invention is to provide a bin whose emptying is facilitated by simple pivoting of the container of the bin when it is unlocked.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de présenter une poubelle comportant un verrouillage automatique déverrouillable pour effectuer son vidage par l'intermédiaire d'une clé spécifique.Another object of the present invention is to present a bin comprising an unlockable automatic locking device for emptying it by means of a specific key.

D'autres buts et avantages de la présente invention apparaitront au cours de la description qui va suivre, qui n'est donnée cependant qu'à titre indicatif, et qui n'a pas pour but de limiter la présente invention.Other objects and advantages of the present invention will appear during the description which follows, which is however given only for information, and which is not intended to limit the present invention.

Selon l'invention, la poubelle, notamment destinée à une utilisation urbaine, comportant:

  • - un bâti ancré sur le sol supportant un récipient à détritus, présentant notamment une ouverture supérieure permettant le dépôt des détritus dans le récipient,
  • - des moyens de fixation et d'articulation dudit récipient sur le bâti, définissant une axe de rotation autour duquel peut pivoter le récipient, de façon à pouvoir vider son contenu en orientant son ouverture vers le bas,
  • - des moyens de verrouillage dudit récipient en position verticale d'utilisation normale, ouverture vers le haut, constitués au moins par des moyens élastiques supportés par le bâti et le récipient (poubelle du type divulgué par DE-B-1 116595), est caractérisé par le fait:
  • - que ledit axe est positionné transversalement audit récipient et à sa partie supérieure de manière à ce qu'après son pivotement, indépendamment de son sens vers la droite ou vers la gauche, pour vidage, le récipient revienne par le seul fait de la gravité à sa dite position verticale d'utilisation normale.
  • - et que lesdits moyens élastiques sont constitués par, d'une part, un verrou présentant une partie en saillie en forme de pêne, assujetti à un ressort presseur, et d'autre part, par une lame guide se présentant sous la forme d'une rampe guide symétrique, apte à comprimer progressivement ledit verrou du retour du récipient par gravité vers sa position verticale d'utilisation normale, après la phase de vidage, ladite lame guide présentant également au moins un orifice, apte à recevoir ledit pêne, pour assurer le verrouillage automatique du récipient lorsque celui-ci est revenu à sa position verticale.
According to the invention, the bin, in particular intended for urban use, comprising:
  • - a frame anchored to the ground supporting a litter receptacle, in particular having an upper opening allowing the deposit of litter in the receptacle,
  • means for fixing and articulation of said container on the frame, defining an axis of rotation around which the container can pivot, so as to be able to empty its content by orienting its opening downwards,
  • - means for locking said container in the vertical position for normal use, opening upwards, constituted at least by elastic means supported by the frame and the container (trash can of the type disclosed by DE-B-1 116595), is characterized by the fact:
  • - That said axis is positioned transversely to said container and at its upper part so that after its pivoting, regardless of its direction to the right or to the left, for emptying, the container returns by gravity alone to its so-called vertical position for normal use.
  • - And that said elastic means consist of, on the one hand, a latch having a projecting part in the shape of a bolt, subject to a pressure spring, and on the other hand, by a guide blade in the form of a symmetrical guide ramp, capable of gradually compressing said latch from the return of the container by gravity to its vertical position of normal use, after the emptying phase, said guide blade also having at least one orifice, capable of receiving said bolt, to ensure automatic locking of the container when it has returned to its vertical position.

L'invention sera mieux comprise si l'on se réfère à la description ci-dessous ainsi qu'aux dessins en annexe qui en font partie intégrante:

The invention will be better understood if reference is made to the description below and to the accompanying drawings which form an integral part thereof:
  • Figure 1 shows by way of non-limiting example a deface view of the bin produced according to the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 represents a perspective view of the trash receptacle of the bin shown in FIG. 1.

Selon la présente invention, comme représentée à la figure 1, la poubelle 1 est composée de deux pièces principales: un bâti 2 et un récipient à détritus 3.According to the present invention, as shown in Figure 1, the trash 1 is composed of two main rooms: a rack 2 and a trash container 3.

Le bâti 2 est constitué par exemple par des moyens mécano-soudés tels que des tubes carrés. Deux tubes 4 et 5 sont disposés parallèlement et entretoisés par deux autres tubes 6 et 7. Les tubes 4, 5 et 6 forment un espace 16 susceptible de recevoir le récipient 3. Les tubes 4 et 5 sont percés d'orifices à leur partie haute respectivement 8 et 9.The frame 2 is constituted for example by mechanically welded means such as square tubes. Two tubes 4 and 5 are arranged in parallel and braced by two other tubes 6 and 7. The tubes 4, 5 and 6 form a space 16 capable of receiving the container 3. The tubes 4 and 5 are pierced with orifices at their upper part 8 and 9 respectively.

Le récipient à détritus 3, comme le montre la figure 2, a une forme sensiblement parallélépipédique. Il est réalisé à partir de feuillards métalliques enroulés par exemple et réunis par des rivets ou par agrafage. La partie inférieure 10 du récipient 3 est fermée par une plaque obturatrice. Le récipient 3 présente sur sa partie basse 11 des orifices 12 permettant l'évacuation de liquide tel que l'eau de pluie par exemple.The trash container 3, as shown in Figure 2, has a substantially parallelepiped shape. It is made from metal strips wound for example and joined by rivets or by stapling. The lower part 10 of the container 3 is closed by a sealing plate. The container 3 has on its lower part 11 orifices 12 allowing the evacuation of liquid such as rainwater for example.

Le récipient 3 présente à sa partie supérieure une ouverture 13 permettant le dépôt des détritus à l'intérieur du récipient. Pour augmenter la rigidité du récipient 3, on place une ceinture métallique 14 tout autour de l'ouverture 13. Comme le montre la figure 3, cette ceinture métallique 14 est réalisée au moyen d'un feuillard métallique découpé et préformé en forme de U renversé. De cette manière, la ceinture 14 vient recouvrir toute la périphérie supérieure 15 du récipient 3 notamment constitué par le feuillard métallique formant le récipient.The container 3 has at its upper part an opening 13 allowing the deposit of detritus inside the container. To increase the rigidity of the container 3, a metal belt 14 is placed all around the opening 13. As shown in FIG. 3, this metal belt 14 is produced by means of a metal strip cut and preformed in the shape of an inverted U . In this way, the belt 14 comes to cover the entire upper periphery 15 of the container 3 in particular constituted by the metal strip forming the container.

Dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel, le bâti 2 est ancré dans le sol mais on pourrait tout aussi bien envisager une version en fixation murale par exemple.In a preferred embodiment, the frame 2 is anchored in the ground but one could just as easily envisage a version in wall mounting for example.

Le récipient à détritus 3 est fixé sur le bâti 2; en effet, la poubelle 1 comporte des moyens de fixation et d'articulation 17 et 18 dudit récipient 3 sur le bâti 2 pour permettre le vidage.The trash container 3 is fixed to the frame 2; in fact, the trash can 1 comprises means of fixing and articulation 17 and 18 of said container 3 on the frame 2 to allow emptying.

Ces moyens de fixation et d'articulation 17 et 18 dudit récipient 3 sont constitués par deux ensembles axe-alésage, supportés par le bâti 2 et le récipient 3, autorisant la rotation du récipient 3.These fixing and articulation means 17 and 18 of said container 3 are constituted by two axis-bore assemblies, supported by the frame 2 and the container 3, allowing the rotation of the container 3.

Comme le montre la figure 4, à la partie supérieure 9 du tube 5 formant le bâti 2 sont percés deux orifices 19 et 20, l'orifice 19 étant dirigé vers l'intérieur c'est-à-dire vers l'espace intérieur 16 destiné à recevoir le récipient 3, l'autre orifice 20 étant percé dans le même axe 21 mais sur la face opposée du tube portant l'orifice 19.As shown in Figure 4, in the upper part 9 of the tube 5 forming the frame 2 are pierced two orifices 19 and 20, the orifice 19 being directed towards the interior, that is to say towards the interior space 16 intended to receive the container 3, the other orifice 20 being drilled in the same axis 21 but on the opposite face of the tube carrying the orifice 19.

L'orifice 20 est destinée à recevoir un insert 22 placé vers l'intérieur du tube 5 et fixé sur les parois du tube 5 par soudure par exemple. Cet insert 22 porte un taraudage intérieur 23 de manière à pouvoir y visser un axe 24. L'orifice 19 est tel qu'il laisse pénétrer la partie filetée 25 de l'axe 24, de manière à pouvoir l'introduire à l'intérieur du tube 5 et de telle sorte que l'on puisse visser l'extrémité 25 de l'axe 24 dans la partie taraudée 23 de l'insert 22.The orifice 20 is intended to receive an insert 22 placed towards the inside of the tube 5 and fixed to the walls of the tube 5 by welding, for example. This insert 22 carries an internal thread 23 so as to be able to screw an axis 24. The orifice 19 is such that it lets the threaded part 25 of the axis 24 penetrate, so as to be able to introduce it inside of the tube 5 and in such a way that the end 25 of the axis 24 can be screwed into the threaded part 23 of the insert 22.

En vis-à-vis de l'orifice 19 du tube 5 on vient fixer sur le récipient 3 une partie alésage 26. Cette partie alésage 26 peut être constituée par un cylindre 27 rapporté sur une plaque de fixation 28. Cette plaque de fixation 28 porte des orifices destinés à recevoir des rivets 29 et 30 permettant de fixer la partie alésage 26 sur la paroi du récipient à détritus 3.Opposite the orifice 19 of the tube 5, a bore part 26 is fixed on the container 3. This bore part 26 can be constituted by a cylinder 27 attached to a fixing plate 28. This fixing plate 28 carries orifices intended to receive rivets 29 and 30 making it possible to fix the bore part 26 on the wall of the trash receptacle 3.

La partie alésage 26 comporte un orifice 31 destiné à recevoir l'extrémité lisse 32 de l'axe 24. L'orifice 31 et la partie terminale 32 de l'axe sont tels qu'ils forment un ajustement glissant. L'axe de l'orifice 31, l'axe 24, et l'axe de l'orifice taraudé 23 sont tous parallèles et confondus pour former un axe d'articulation 21. De cette manière, la paroi latérale 33 du récipient 3 est parallèle au côté intérieur 34 du tube 5 et l'axe d'articulation 21 est sensiblement perpendiculaire à ces deux surfaces 33 et 34.The bore part 26 has an orifice 31 intended to receive the smooth end 32 of the axis 24. The orifice 31 and the end part 32 of the axis are such that they form a sliding adjustment. The axis of the orifice 31, the axis 24, and the axis of the threaded orifice 23 are all parallel and coincident to form a hinge axis 21. In this way, the side wall 33 of the container 3 is parallel to the inner side 34 of the tube 5 and the hinge axis 21 is substantially perpendicular to these two surfaces 33 and 34.

A la partie supérieure 8 du tube 4 formant le bâti 2 sont disposés des moyens de fixation et d'articulation 17 dont la constitution est similaire aux moyens de fixation et d'articulation 18 qui viennent d'être décrits. Ces moyens 17 et 18 sont donc situés de part et d'autre du récipient 3. Leurs axes sont dans le prolongement l'un de l'autre et forment un axe d'articulation 21 autour duquel le récipient peut effectuer une révolution complète de 360°. l'axe ainsi formé est sensiblement parallèle au plan de pose de la poubelle. De plus, le récipient 3 est immobilisé en translation entre les montants 4 et 5 du bâti 2.At the upper part 8 of the tube 4 forming the frame 2 are arranged fixing and articulation means 17 whose constitution is similar to the fixing and articulation means 18 which have just been described. These means 17 and 18 are therefore located on either side of the container 3. Their axes are in line with one another and form a hinge pin 21 around which the container can make a complete revolution of 360 °. the axis thus formed is substantially parallel to the laying plane of the bin. In addition, the container 3 is immobilized in translation between the uprights 4 and 5 of the frame 2.

Grâce à ces moyens de fixation et d'articulation 17 et 18, le récipient 3 peut être vidé des détritus qu'il contient par simple basculement du dit récipient 3. En effet, il n'est pas nécessaire de manutentionner ce récipient, il suffit de placer à droite ou à gauche de la poubelle un chariot destiné à collecter les ordures et de basculer le récipient 3 vers ce chariot de manière à en vider son contenu.Thanks to these fixing and articulation means 17 and 18, the container 3 can be emptied of the detritus that it contains by simple tilting of said container 3. In fact, it is not necessary to handle this container, it suffices to place on the right or left of the trash a cart intended to collect the refuse and to tilt the container 3 towards this cart so as to empty its contents.

La poubelle 1 comporte en outre des moyens élastiques 35 supportés par le bâti 2 et le récipient 3 pour assurer un auto-verrouillage dudit récipient 3 et le maintenir en position de blocage. En effet, le récipient 3 de la poubelle 1 étant articulé grâce aux moyens de fixation et d'articulation 17 et 18 il est nécessaire de pouvoir bloquer et maintenir le récipient 3 en position bloquée pour son utilisation normale.The bin 1 also comprises elastic means 35 supported by the frame 2 and the container 3 to ensure self-locking of said container 3 and to keep it in the locked position. Indeed, the container 3 of the trash 1 being articulated by means of fixing and articulation means 17 and 18 it is necessary to be able to block and maintain the container 3 in the locked position for normal use.

Ces moyens élastiques 35 d'immobilisation sont représentés aux figures 1, 5 et 6. Ils sont constitués par: une lame-guide 36, un verrou 37 et un ressort 38.These elastic immobilization means 35 are shown in FIGS. 1, 5 and 6. They consist of: a guide blade 36, a latch 37 and a spring 38.

La lame-guide 36 est constituée par un plat métallique formant une rampe-guide telle que représentée à la figure 6. Elle est fixée vers le bas du récipient 3 au moyen de rivets 44 et 45 et située à l'extérieur du récipient 3 vers le montant 5 du bâti 2. Elle est en outre percée d'un orifice 40 destiné à recevoir la partie mâle du verrouillage.The guide blade 36 is constituted by a metal dish forming a guide ramp as shown in FIG. 6. It is fixed towards the bottom of the container 3 by means of rivets 44 and 45 and situated outside the container 3 towards the upright 5 of the frame 2. It is also pierced with an orifice 40 intended to receive the male part of the lock.

Le verrou 37 est lui fixé sur le bâti 2 par l'intermédiaire du montant 5, il est essentiellement constitué par un axe métallique formant le verrou et présentant une extrémité en forme de pêne 39, l'autre extrémité 43 formant la tête du verrou.The latch 37 is fixed to it on the frame 2 by means of the upright 5, it essentially consists of a metal pin forming the latch and having a bolt-shaped end 39, the other end 43 forming the head of the latch.

D'autre part, sur le verrou 37 est fixée, par soudure par exemple, une rondelle-arrêtoir 48, le plan de cette rondelle 48 étant sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'axe du verrou 37.On the other hand, a lock washer 48 is fixed on the latch 37, for example by welding, the plane of this washer 48 being substantially perpendicular to the axis of the latch 37.

Le montant 5 du bâti 2 comporte vis-à-vis de l'emplacement où est fixée la lame-guide 36 deux orifices 52 et 53. L'orifice 52 est percé sur la face 54 du tube 5 de manière à se situer en face de l'orifice 40 percé dans la lame 36 lorsque le récipient est en position normale verticale. L'orifice 53 est percé sur la face opposée du tube carré et est centré sur le même axe que l'orifice 52.The upright 5 of the frame 2 has, opposite the location where the guide blade 36 is fixed, two orifices 52 and 53. The orifice 52 is drilled on the face 54 of the tube 5 so as to be located opposite orifice 40 drilled in the blade 36 when the container is in the normal vertical position. The orifice 53 is drilled on the opposite face of the square tube and is centered on the same axis as the orifice 52.

La dimension de. l'orifice 52 est telle que le pêne 39 du verrou 37 puisse être introduit dans cet orifice 52 mais son diamètre est plus petit que le diamètre de la rondelle-arrêtoir 48. Par contre, l'orifice 53 a lui un diamètre tel qu'il laisse pénétrer cette rondelle-arrêtoir 48 à l'intérieur du tube carré 5, ceci de manière à pouvoir loger le verrou à l'intérieur du tube formant le bâti 2.The dimension of. the orifice 52 is such that the bolt 39 of the latch 37 can be introduced into this orifice 52 but its diameter is smaller than the diameter of the retaining washer 48. On the other hand, the orifice 53 has a diameter such that it lets this stop washer 48 penetrate inside the square tube 5, so as to be able to house the lock inside the tube forming the frame 2.

Le verrou 37 porte également une plaque de fixation 49. Cette plaque de fixation 49 est située entre la rondelle-arrêtoir 48 et la tête 43 du verrou 37. Grâce à cette plaque de fixation 49 on peut fixer le verrou, au moyen de rivets 46 et 47 par exemple, sur la face du tube 5 portant l'orifice 53. Les moyens élastiques 35 d'immobilisation sont rendus efficaces pour obtenir un auto-verrouillage, grâce à un ressort 38. Ce ressort 38 est porté par le verrou 37 et, est comprimé entre la rondelle-arrêtoir 48 et la plaque de fixation 49 du verrou. Le ressort 38 exerce donc une pression parallèle à l'axe du verrou et dirigée vers le récipient 3. De ce fait, le ressort 38 pousse en permanence le pêne 39 du verrou 37 dans l'orifice 40 de la lame-guide 36 au moyen de la rondelle-arrêtoir 48.The latch 37 also carries a fixing plate 49. This fixing plate 49 is located between the retaining washer 48 and the head 43 of the latch 37. With this fixing plate 49 the latch can be fixed, by means of rivets 46 and 47 for example, on the face of the tube 5 carrying the orifice 53. The elastic immobilization means 35 are made effective to obtain self-locking, by means of a spring 38. This spring 38 is carried by the lock 37 and , is compressed between the retaining washer 48 and the fixing plate 49 of the lock. The spring 38 therefore exerts a pressure parallel to the axis of the lock and directed towards the container 3. As a result, the spring 38 permanently pushes the bolt 39 of the lock 37 into the orifice 40 of the guide blade 36 by means of the retaining washer 48.

Ainsi, grâce aux moyens élastiques 35 le récipient 3 est autoverrouillé et il est maintenu en position de blocage pour une utilisation normale.Thus, thanks to the elastic means 35 the container 3 is self-locked and it is kept in the locking position for normal use.

Pour effectuer le vidage du récipient 3 de la poubelle 1 il est nécessaire de déverrouiller le récipient. Pour ce faire, les moyens élastiques 35 d'immobilisation sont accessibles par une clé 41 autorisant le déverrouillage et manœvrant le pêne 39 du verrou 37.To empty the container 3 from the bin 1 it is necessary to unlock the container. To do this, the elastic immobilization means 35 are accessible by a key 41 authorizing the unlocking and maneuvering the bolt 39 of the lock 37.

L'accessibilité aux moyens élastiques 35 d'immobilisation par la clé 41 de déverrouillage est autorisé par la présence d'un écart 42 entre la plaque 49 et l'extrémité extérieure 43 du verrou 37.Access to the elastic means 35 for immobilization by the unlocking key 41 is authorized by the presence of a gap 42 between the plate 49 and the outer end 43 of the latch 37.

Comme le montre la figure 5, la clé 41 de déverrouillage se présente sous la forme d'un bras de levier présentant à son extrémité 50 une fourchette apte à emprisonner la tête 43 du verrou 37. L'écart 42 entre la plaque 49 et l'extrémité 43 du verrou 37 est suffisant pour introduire l'extrémité 50 de la clé de déverrouillage 41. Cet écart est déterminé par le positionnement de la rondelle-arrêtoir 48 sur le verrou 37.As shown in Figure 5, the unlocking key 41 is in the form of a lever arm having at its end 50 a fork capable of trapping the head 43 of the latch 37. The distance 42 between the plate 49 and l the end 43 of the lock 37 is sufficient to introduce the end 50 of the unlocking key 41. This difference is determined by the positioning of the locking washer 48 on the lock 37.

Pour déverrouiller le récipient 3 du bâti 2, on introduit donc la clé de déverrouillage sous la tête 43 du verrou 37, on exerce une pression sur la clé 41 suivant la flèche 55, la clé 41 formant bras de levier dont le point d'appui s'effectue à la partie 56 permet de comprimer le ressort 38 et de cette manière de dégager le pêne 39 de l'orifice 40 de la lame-guide 36. Il suffit alors de faire basculer légèrement le récipient 3 autour de son axe d'articulation 21 pour le libérer.To unlock the container 3 from the frame 2, the unlocking key is therefore introduced under the head 43 of the latch 37, pressure is exerted on the key 41 along the arrow 55, the key 41 forming a lever arm whose fulcrum takes place at part 56 makes it possible to compress the spring 38 and in this way to release the bolt 39 from the orifice 40 of the guide blade 36. It suffices then to slightly tilt the container 3 around its axis of articulation 21 to release it.

Dès que l'extrémité du pêne 39 porte sur la lame-guide 36 on peut alors cesser la pression sur la clé 41 et basculer complètement le récipient 3 pour le vider.As soon as the end of the bolt 39 bears on the guide blade 36, it is then possible to stop pressing the key 41 and completely tilt the container 3 to empty it.

Lorsque le vidage de la poubelle est effectué, l'auto-verrouillage du récipient 3 peut s'effectuer de la manière suivante: le récipient est placé dans une position sensiblement perpendiculaire à sa position normale d'utilisation, puis est lâché, de ce fait, par gravité, il a tendance à revenir à sa position verticale d'utilisation normale.When the emptying of the trash is carried out, the self-locking of the container 3 can be carried out in the following manner: the container is placed in a position substantially perpendicular to its normal position of use, then is released, thereby , by gravity, it tends to return to its vertical position of normal use.

Lorsque la lame-guide 36 arrive sur l'extrémité du pêne 39 du verrou 37 elle comprime progressivement le verrou et lorsque l'orifice 40 de la lame-guide arrive dans l'axe du verrou 37, le pêne 39 pénètre à l'intérieur de cet orifice 40 poussé par le ressort 38. Le récipient 3 est alors auto-verrouillé.When the guide blade 36 arrives on the end of the bolt 39 of the latch 37 it gradually compresses the latch and when the orifice 40 of the guide blade arrives in the axis of the latch 37, the latch 39 penetrates inside of this orifice 40 pushed by the spring 38. The container 3 is then self-locked.

La figure 7 représente la lame-guide 36 en vue de face, présentant l'orifice 40. Le trait d'axe 51 représente la trajectoire effectuée par l'extrémité du pêne 39 du verrou 37 lors de la phase d'auto-verrouillage. On remarque bien évidemment que la lame-guide est symétrique ceci de manière à pouvoir auto-verrouiller le récipient, qui était au préalable déverrouillé, par la gauche ou par la droite.FIG. 7 represents the guide blade 36 in front view, presenting the orifice 40. The axis line 51 represents the trajectory made by the end of the bolt 39 of the lock 37 during the self-locking phase. Obviously, it is noted that the guide blade is symmetrical this so as to be able to self-lock the container, which was previously unlocked, from the left or from the right.

Afin d'augmenter l'efficacité de l'auto-verrouillage du récipient, par exemple lors d'une désoli- darisation de la lame-guide 36 fixée sur le récipient par rupture des rivets 44 et 45, on pourra envisager de prévoir à la partie basse du récipient dans l'axe du pêne 39 et de l'orifice 40, un orifice supplémentaire similaire à ce dernier. Dans ce cas, le verrou 37 aurait une longueur légèrement supérieure à celui qui a été décrit de manière à ce que le pêne 37 vienne s'engager à la fois dans l'orifice 40 et dans l'orifice supplémentaire pratiqué dans le récipient.In order to increase the effectiveness of the self-locking of the container, for example during a separation of the guide blade 36 fixed on the container by breaking the rivets 44 and 45, it may be envisaged to provide for the lower part of the container in the axis of the bolt 39 and the orifice 40, an additional orifice similar to the latter. In this case, the latch 37 would have a length slightly greater than that which has been described so that the bolt 37 comes to engage both in the orifice 40 and in the additional orifice made in the container.

De ce fait, on favorise un meilleur guidage du pêne 37 et on obtient une meilleure résistance au déverrouillage, ce pour augmenter la résistance de la poubelle au vandalisme.As a result, better guidance of the bolt 37 is favored and better resistance to unlocking is obtained, this in order to increase the resistance of the bin to vandalism.

La poubelle 1 ne nécessitant pas pour son vidage de manutention difficile peut être constituée à partir de pièces réalisées dans des matériaux présentant une haute résistance mécanique et une forte résistance à la corrosion. Toutes ces pièces sont métalliques, réalisées en acier traité anticorrosion ou en acier inoxydable par exemple. Grâce à ces dispositions, la poubelle offre une grande rigidité et résiste particulièrement bien aux actions intempestives de vandalisme.The trash 1 not requiring for its emptying difficult handling can be formed from parts made of materials having a high mechanical strength and a high resistance to corrosion. All these parts are metallic, made of anti-corrosion treated steel or stainless steel for example. Thanks to these provisions, the bin offers great rigidity and is particularly resistant to untimely actions of vandalism.

Cette poubelle dont le verrouillage en position bloquée est automatique permet une utilisation plus sûre et plus pratique.This bin, whose locking in the locked position is automatic, allows safer and more convenient use.

Naturellement, le mode de réalisation de la présente invention qui vient d'être décrit n'est donné qu'à titre indicatif, et l'on pourrait trouver d'autres mises en oeuvre de la présente invention sans pour autant sortir du cadre de celle-ci:Naturally, the embodiment of the present invention which has just been described is given for information only, and other implementations of the present invention could be found without departing from the scope of that. -this:

En particulier, les moyens de fixation et d'articulation pourraient avoir des dispositions relatives autres, et notamment telles que les axes soient portés par le récipient et les alésages portés par le bâti. D'autres part, les moyens élastiques d'immobilisation pourraient aussi avoir des dispositions différentes. Le bâti pourrait avoir aussi d'autres configurations que celles décrites ci-dessus.In particular, the fixing and articulation means could have provisions relating to other tives, and in particular such that the axes are carried by the container and the bores carried by the frame. On the other hand, the elastic immobilization means could also have different arrangements. The frame could also have other configurations than those described above.
