Description

Le domaine de l'invention est celui des conteneurs et des coffrets techniques existant sur la voirie publique et susceptibles d'être enterrés. Plus précisément l'invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant à une municipalité ou à une entreprise en ayant la concession, d'enterrer sous la voirie publique, les divers conteneurs et coffrets techniques généralement situés en surface, voire même suspendus. Elle concerne également tout particulier ou entreprise privée désirant faire de même sur un terrain privé. Elle concerne également la possibilité d'enterrer ainsi tout local technique.The field of the invention is that of containers and technical boxes existing on public roads and likely to be buried. More specifically the invention relates to a method and a system allowing a municipality or a business in having the concession, to bury under the public road network, the various containers and boxes techniques generally located on the surface, or even suspended. It relates to also any private individual or company wishing to do the same on private land. It also concerns the possibility of burying any technical room in this way.

En particulier, l'évolution incontournable du traitement écologique des déchets des consommateurs conduit les municipalités et / ou les entreprises en ayant la concession, à mettre en place les moyens d'un tri sélectif des déchets directement par le consommateur. Par ailleurs ce dernier, également citoyen, se tourne vers les pouvoirs publics, en exprimant de plus en plus une volonté de maítrise de son environnement urbain, en particulier aux plans des nuisances visuelles, sonores, voire olfactives, ces exigences venant en supplément des contraintes de commodité d'accès, d'efficacité du service, sans renoncer évidemment aux exigences de sécurité.In particular, the inevitable evolution of the ecological treatment of waste from consumers leads municipalities and / or businesses with the concession, to set up the means of selective sorting of waste directly by the consumer. The latter, also a citizen, turns to the public authorities, increasingly expressing a desire to control its urban environment, by particular in terms of visual, noise or even olfactory nuisance, these requirements in addition to the constraints of convenience of access, efficiency of service, without obviously waive security requirements.

Les déchetteries ayant montrées leurs limites, le problème posé est de permettre à ces citoyens de disposer de manière facilement accessible, c'est à dire en de très nombreux lieux, de conteneurs multiples permettant la dépose sélective des déchets, en séparant dès cet instant, par exemple, le verre, les plastiques, les métaux et les matières putrescibles.The recycling centers having shown their limits, the problem posed is to allow these citizens to have in an easily accessible way, that is to say in very many places, multiple containers allowing the selective deposit of waste, in separating from this moment, for example, glass, plastics, metals and materials putrescibles.

Cette multiplication des lieux de dépose induit immédiatement des conséquences négatives pour le public en terme de pollution visuelle, olfactive et sonore et pour les pouvoirs publics en terme de sécurité, problèmes aggravés en cas de terrorisme, ainsi qu'en terme de problème de gestion des relèves des dits conteneurs, ceux-ci ne se remplissant pas à la même vitesse.This multiplication of drop-off locations immediately has consequences negative for the public in terms of visual, olfactory and sound pollution and for public authorities in terms of security, aggravated problems in the event of terrorism, as well that in terms of the problem of managing the readings of the said containers, these are not not filling at the same speed.

En fait, le problème posé ne peut être effectivement résolu que si on sait résoudre simultanément deux problèmes, c'est à dire concevoir un procédé et des installations,

  • commodes d'utilisation pour tout public et facile à mette en oeuvre,
  • sûres et économiques pour la municipalité ou ses concessionnaires.
In fact, the problem posed can only be effectively solved if we know how to simultaneously solve two problems, that is to say, to design a process and installations,
  • convenient to use for all ages and easy to implement,
  • safe and economical for the municipality or its concessionaires.

Ces objectifs sont atteints et ces problèmes sont résolus selon l'invention à l'aide d'un procédé comprenant les étapes suivantes :

  • les conteneurs de dépose spécialisée sont enterrés, seul dépassant du sol l'organe d'introduction des déchets,
  • le service ad hoc de la municipalité ou son concessionnaire procède, aux instants nécessaires, au relevage du conteneur et son vidage dans une benne adaptée aux déchets en question. Ils mettent en oeuvre à cette occasion un dispositif spécialisé d'extraction et éventuellement de tractage ou de portage.
These objectives are achieved and these problems are solved according to the invention using a method comprising the following steps:
  • the specialized disposal containers are buried, the only one protruding from the ground the waste introduction unit,
  • the ad hoc service of the municipality or its concessionaire proceeds, at the necessary moments, to lift the container and empty it into a bucket suitable for the waste in question. They use on this occasion a specialized device for extraction and possibly towing or carrying.

En effet la mise en fosse d'un conteneur exige pour son extraction, soit un engin de levage, soit une plate-forme élévatrice.Indeed the placing in the pit of a container requires for its extraction, either a machine lifting platform, a lifting platform.

L'engin de levage, généralement associée à la benne de ramassage, rentre dans la catégorie des poids-lourds, exigeant des emplacements spécialisés, difficile à maintenir hors du stationnement sauvage, voire même impossible à mettre en oeuvre dans certains quartiers de coeur de ville. D'autre part leur mise en place est longue et peut difficilement être envisagée à répétition, par exemple, tous les vingt mètres.The lifting device, generally associated with the collecting bucket, fits into the heavyweight category, requiring specialized locations, difficult to maintain outside the wild parking lot, even impossible to implement in some districts of the heart of the city. On the other hand their installation is long and can hardly be considered repeatedly, for example, every twenty meters.

Le choix d'une plate-forme élévatrice nécessite l'apport d'énergie électrique en général, (ou hydraulique ou pneumatique), ce qui sous-entend des travaux souterrains en général de branchement électrique. Cela met aussi en évidence l'extrême difficulté technique, bien connue des municipalités ou de leurs concessionnaires, à faire vivre des mécanismes plus ou moins sophistiqués au ras et en dessous de la chaussée, lieux où se concentrent les pollutions chimiques (essences, huiles, détergents, antigels, urines, etc.) et les pollutions abrasives (poussières, particules de pneus, sables, etc.) sans omettre les problèmes purement mécaniques de chocs et d'écrasement.The choice of a lifting platform requires the supply of electrical energy in general, (or hydraulic or pneumatic), which implies underground work in general electrical connection. It also highlights the extreme difficulty technique, well known to municipalities or their concessionaires, to support more or less sophisticated mechanisms flush and below the road, places where concentrate chemical pollution (gasoline, oils, detergents, antifreeze, urine, etc.) and abrasive pollution (dust, tire particles, sand, etc.) without forgetting the purely mechanical problems of impact and crushing.

Le procédé selon l'invention consiste, dans une fosse sous la voirie, à utiliser une plate-forme élévatrice, non-motorisée, donc n'exigeant aucun câblage et ne mettant en oeuvre que des mécanismes très rustiques et d'une extrême fiabilité.The method according to the invention consists, in a pit under the road, of using a lifting platform, non-motorized, therefore requiring no wiring and not putting in only very rustic and extremely reliable mechanisms.

La montée de la plate-forme s'obtient par l'accouplement de l'embout d'un dispositif moteur extérieur mobile avec la prise de force du dispositif mécanique de mise en mouvement de la plate-forme ; le dispositif moteur extérieur mobile étant, soit autonome avec sa batterie, soit connecté à la benne de relève ou tout véhicule associé. Dans un langage courant il s'agit d'une perceuse ou d'une visseuse-dévisseuse sur batterie.The rise of the platform is obtained by coupling the end of a mobile external motor device with the PTO of the mechanical setting device in motion of the platform; the mobile external motor device being either autonomous with its battery, either connected to the backup skip or any associated vehicle. In common parlance it is a drill or a screwdriver on drums.

Il est évident que ce procédé selon l'invention permet l'utilisation d'un seul moteur extérieur mobile pour un grand nombre d'installations.It is obvious that this method according to the invention allows the use of a single motor mobile exterior for a large number of installations.

A cet instant, et après la sortie du conteneur, le dispositif est parfaitement sécurisé, car le plancher sur lequel repose le conteneur s'est substitué au plafond précédent, évitant ainsi toute chute intempestive dans la fosse. En cours de mouvement les flancs ont également participé à cet aspect sécurité.At this instant, and after leaving the container, the device is perfectly secure, because the floor on which the container rests replaced the previous ceiling, avoiding thus any untimely fall into the pit. During movement the sides have also participated in this security aspect.

Avantageusement les flancs, le plafond et le plancher de ce dispositif pourront fortement participer à l'isolement phonique de l'ensemble.Advantageously, the sides, the ceiling and the floor of this device can strongly participate in the soundproofing of the whole.

De plus dans le cadre de ce procédé selon l'invention il est alors possible de déplacer le conteneur standard vers la benne de ramassage standard, qui peut alors être distante. Ce procédé permet donc de séparer les aires de ramassage des déchets (où se trouvent les conteneurs standards enterrés dans des fosses), susceptibles d'être positionnés au mieux des intérêts des concitoyens d'une municipalité, des aires de vidage de ces conteneurs standards, susceptibles d'être positionnés au mieux des impératifs de circulation de la municipalité et d'optimisation du coût du service.In addition, in the context of this method according to the invention it is then possible to move the standard container to the standard collection bucket, which can then be distant. This process therefore makes it possible to separate the waste collection areas (where find standard containers buried in pits), likely to be positioned in the best interests of the citizens of a municipality, emptying areas of these standard containers, capable of being positioned as best as possible for circulation of the municipality and optimization of the cost of the service.

Grâce à ce procédé, les services de la municipalité ou du concessionnaire peuvent organiser plus économiquement le ramassage, tout en ayant apporté aux citoyens les facilités d'un tri sélectif de proximité non bruyant et non dangereux parce qu'enterré.Thanks to this process, the services of the municipality or the concessionaire can organize the collection more economically, while having provided citizens with facilities for selective sorting in the vicinity, not noisy and not dangerous because it is buried.

Dans une variante de réalisation, il est également possible par l'emploi de cette invention, de faire disparaítre de la vue et des trottoirs, tous les coffrets techniques existant comme par exemple les coffrets de raccordements de câbles de téléphone ou de télévision, ou les coffrets de commande de l'éclairage publique, des feux de circulation ou de bornes escamotables.In an alternative embodiment, it is also possible by the use of this invention, to remove from sight and sidewalks, all technical boxes existing such as for example telephone or cable connection boxes television, or control boxes for public lighting, traffic lights or retractable bollards.

Ces coffrets n'étant ouverts que pour des motifs de maintenance et ce de manière épisodique, il est particulièrement attractif de ne pas mettre en place, dans une solution enterrée, de motorisation in-situ, mais de disposer d'un dispositif autonome comme évoqué ci-dessus.These boxes are only open for maintenance reasons and so episodic, it is particularly attractive not to set up, in a solution buried, in-situ motorization, but to have an autonomous device like mentioned above.

Dans une autre variante de réalisation, il est également possible par l'emploi de cette invention, d'enterrer ainsi tout local technique et en particulier toute réserve de matériels comme des outils par exemple.In another alternative embodiment, it is also possible by the use of this invention, to bury any technical room and in particular any reserve of materials like tools for example.

Plus particulièrement, la mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention comprend :

  • des conteneurs standards spécialisés par nature de déchets, placés dans des fosses de telle manière que seul le dispositif d'introduction des déchets soit au dessus du sol,
  • les dits conteneurs standards étant équipés roulettes permettant leur déplacement manuel,
  • les dites fosses étant équipées de plates-formes élévatrices non motorisées et munies d'un dispositif de couplage avec un moteur extérieur,
  • les dites plates-formes étant constituées d'un compartiment doté d'un plancher, de flancs et d'un plafond permettant à la fois de disposer d'un système parfaitement sécurisé au plan sécurité civile, et susceptible d'une très grande amélioration de l'isolement phonique.
  • d'un dispositif moteur extérieur mobile muni d'un embout s'accouplant avec la prise de force du dispositif mécanique de mise en mouvement de la plate-forme élévatrice,
  • l'énergie nécessaire au fonctionnement du dispositif moteur extérieur mobile pouvant provenir préférentiellement d'une batterie portable mais pouvant également être connecté électriquement avec la benne de ramassage ou tout véhicule d'accompagnement.
More particularly, the implementation of the method according to the invention comprises:
  • standard containers specialized by type of waste, placed in pits so that only the waste introduction device is above the ground,
  • said standard containers being fitted with casters allowing their manual movement,
  • the said pits being equipped with non-motorized lifting platforms and provided with a coupling device with an external motor,
  • said platforms being made up of a compartment provided with a floor, sides and a ceiling allowing at the same time to have a perfectly secure system in terms of civil security, and susceptible of a very great improvement of sound isolation.
  • a mobile external motor device provided with a nozzle coupling with the power take-off of the mechanical device for setting in motion the lifting platform,
  • the energy necessary for the operation of the mobile external motor device which can preferably come from a portable battery but which can also be electrically connected with the collecting bucket or any accompanying vehicle.

Ainsi, les services de la municipalité ou du concessionnaire, peuvent d'une part, placer de nombreux conteneurs standards de ramassage sélectif au plus près des besoins exprimés par la population sans nuire à leur environnement visuel et sonore, et d'autre part, disposer les aires de ramassage selon des critères de sécurité et de gestion économique qui lui sont propres.Thus, the services of the municipality or the concessionaire, on the one hand, place many standard selective collection containers as close as possible expressed by the population without harming their visual and sound environment, and other hand, arrange the collection areas according to safety and management criteria specific to it.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaítront à la lecture de la description d'une variante de réalisation de l'invention, donnée à titre d'exemple indicatif et non limitatif, et des figures 1 à 8 annexées présentant des vues schématiques en coupe ou en plan de la mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the description of an alternative embodiment of the invention, given by way of indicative example and not limiting, and appended figures 1 to 8 showing schematic sectional views or in terms of implementing the method according to the invention.

La mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention permet au service ad hoc de la municipalité ou du concessionnaire de placer des conteneurs standards (12) destinés à la récupération sélective ou non des déchets dans des fosses (1) fermées par la partie supérieure (10) d'un compartiment (9 à 11), de côté (11) et de fond (9).The implementation of the method according to the invention allows the ad hoc service of the municipality or the concessionaire to place standard containers (12) intended for selective or non-selective recovery of waste in pits (1) closed by the party upper (10) of a compartment (9 to 11), side (11) and bottom (9).

Le conteneur standard (12) possède des roues (13). Par ailleurs le compartiment (9 à 11) possède sur sa partie supérieure (10) un dispositif (14), solidaire de la partie supérieure (10), permettant d'introduire les déchets dans le conteneur (12). Ce dispositif (14) est généralement appellé trémie et possède une bouche d'entrées des déchets adaptée à leurs formes, tel un rond pour le verre, un rectangle pour le papier, un tiroir de vide-ordures pour les déchets non triés, etc.The standard container (12) has wheels (13). In addition, the compartment (9 to 11) has on its upper part (10) a device (14), integral with the part upper (10), allowing the waste to be introduced into the container (12). These measures (14) is generally called hopper and has a suitable waste inlet mouth to their shapes, like a circle for glass, a rectangle for paper, a drawer for garbage for unsorted waste, etc.

La fosse (1) contient dans sa partie inférieure un mécanisme de levage (2 à 8), non motorisé, possédant une base (3) solidaire d'au moins un montant vertical (4) permettant le coulissement (5) et le maintien d'une structure horizontale (2) porteuse du compartiment (9 à 11).The pit (1) contains in its lower part a lifting mechanism (2 to 8), not motorized, having a base (3) integral with at least one vertical upright (4) allowing sliding (5) and maintaining a horizontal structure (2) carrying the compartment (9 to 11).

La structure horizontale (2) est reliée à une sangle (6) s'enroulant autour d'une poulie (7a) solidaire de la sortie d'un réducteur irréversible (7). Ce dernier possède un dispositif d'accouplement dit de prise de force (8), par exemple de type fente dans laquelle s'insère un embout (20) de type tête de tournevis, provenant du moteur extérieur mobile (18). The horizontal structure (2) is connected to a strap (6) winding around a pulley (7a) secured to the outlet of an irreversible reducer (7). The latter has a so-called PTO coupling device (8), for example of the slot type in which a bit (20) of screwdriver head type is inserted, coming from the mobile external motor (18).

Celui-ci est constitué d'un moteur (16), d'une batterie (19), d'un mandrin (17) et d'un embout (20). Préférentiellement l'embout (20) et la prise de force (8) auront la forme d'un triangle curviligne (23).This consists of a motor (16), a battery (19), a mandrel (17) and a tip (20). Preferably the end piece (20) and the PTO (8) will have the shape of a curvilinear triangle (23).

Dans une première phase (figure 1), l'opérateur (15) s'est approché de la fosse (1), porteur d'un moteur extérieur mobile (18), en fait une visseuse-dévisseuse ou une perceuse, puis accouple (figure 2) l'embout spécifique (20) au dispositif de prise de force (8).In a first phase (Figure 1), the operator (15) approached the pit (1), carrying a mobile external motor (18), makes it a screwdriver-unscrewer or a drill, then couples ( Figure 2) the specific end piece (20) to the PTO device (8).

Celui-ci mis en rotation par le fonctionnement (figure 3) du moteur extérieur mobile (18), actionne un réducteur irréversible (7), qui met en rotation une poulie (7a), laquelle enroule une sangle (6), ce qui a pour effet de lever la structure horizontale (2), porteuse du compartiment (9 à 11), jusqu'à permettre (figure 4) la mise à niveau du sol de la pièce (2).The latter rotated by the operation (FIG. 3) of the mobile external motor (18), actuates an irreversible reducer (7), which rotates a pulley (7a), which winds a strap (6), which has for the effect of lifting the horizontal structure (2), carrying the compartment (9 to 11), until allowing (FIG. 4) the leveling of the floor of the room (2).

Le conteneur standard (12) est alors sorti (figure 5) du compartiment (9 à 11), puis amené (figure 6) jusqu'à la benne standard de ramassage, située sur une aire de relevage éventuellement distante.The standard container (12) is then removed (Figure 5) from the compartment (9 to 11), then brought (Figure 6) to the standard collection bucket, located on a lifting area possibly distant.

Après vidage l'opérateur (15) ramène le conteneur standard (12) dans le compartiment (9 à 11), qui est alors mise en descente par le moteur extérieur mobile (18), après accouplement des dispositifs (20) et (8).After emptying the operator (15) returns the standard container (12) to the compartment (9 to 11), which is then lowered by the mobile external motor (18), after coupling of the devices (20) and (8).

Très avantageusement (figure 8) l'embout spécifique (20) et la prise de force pourront avoir une forme non disponible dans le commerce, comme par exemple celle d'une triangle curviligne (23), forme dans laquelle aucun type de tournevis (22) ne peut agir, cette forme étant par ailleurs très difficile à reproduire sans l'aide d'une machine-outil à commande numérique.Very advantageously (FIG. 8) the specific end piece (20) and the PTO can have a shape not commercially available, such as that of a curvilinear triangle (23), shape in which no type of screwdriver (22 ) cannot act, this form being moreover very difficult to reproduce without the aid of a numerically controlled machine tool.

L'usage d'un réducteur irréversible (7) apporte les éléments sécuritaires de verrouillage permettant l'immobilisation du compartiment (9 à 11) à tout instant, dès que cesse la rotation du moteur extérieur mobile (18), empéchant ainsi sa descente, quel que soit la charge. Avec un tel dispositif, seule la mise en rotation inverse du moteur extérieur mobile (18) permet la descente.The use of an irreversible reducer (7) provides the safety elements of locking allowing immobilization of the compartment (9 to 11) at any time, as soon as stops the rotation of the mobile external motor (18), thus preventing its descent, whatever either the charge. With such a device, only the reverse rotation of the external motor mobile (18) allows the descent.

Il va de soi (figure 7) qu'un élément de secours extrêmement simple sera constitué par une manivelle (21) munie de l'embout ad hoc (20) et plus généralement par n'importe quel perceuse du commerce, bien évidemment toujours munie munie de l'embout ad hoc (20).It goes without saying (FIG. 7) that an extremely simple emergency element will consist of a crank (21) provided with the ad hoc end piece (20) and more generally by any commercial drill, obviously always provided fitted with the ad hoc tip (20).

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention découlent d'une autre variante de réalisation de l'invention, consistant à entreposer dans le compartiment autre chose qu'un conteneur de déchets.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention follow from another variant embodiment of the invention, consisting of storing something else in the compartment than a waste container.

Il peut s'agir de tous types de coffrets techniques rencontrés dans les villes comme par exemple, coffrets électriques, coffrets pour l'éclairage public, coffrets pour la commande des feux de signalisation, coffrets de commande de bornes escamotables ou de barrières levantes, etc.It can be all types of technical boxes encountered in cities such as for example, electrical boxes, boxes for public lighting, boxes for control of traffic lights, control boxes for retractable bollards or lifting barriers, etc.

Il peut s'agir également de toutes sortes de locaux d'entreposage, comme par exemple, une réserve de jardinier avec tondeuse, brouette, outils, etc. ou des réserves de matériels conservés sur place mais dont l'usage est épisodique, comme par exemple pour un marché de plein air.It can also include all kinds of storage spaces, such as example, a gardener's reserve with mower, wheelbarrow, tools, etc. or reservations of materials kept on site but whose use is sporadic, such as for example an outdoor market.

L'ensemble des descriptions faites ci-dessus restent les mêmes, à l'exception toutefois de la trémie qui est simplement supprimée.All of the descriptions made above remain the same, except however from the hopper which is simply removed.

On comprend ainsi que la mise en oeuvre de ce procédé constitue principalement pour les collectivités locales, agissant directement ou par l'intermédiaire de concessionnaires, une avancée spectaculaire dans les solutions de collecte sélective des déchets, tout en conservant une qualité de vie urbaine satisfaisante. Il en va de même dans la suppression visuelle des centaines de coffrets techniques qui encombrent les trottoirs de nos villes.It is thus understood that the implementation of this process constitutes mainly for local authorities, acting directly or through dealers, a spectacular advance in selective collection solutions for waste, while maintaining a satisfactory quality of urban life. The same is true in the visual removal of the hundreds of technical boxes that clutter the sidewalks with our cities.

En effet cette solution permet de mettre à la disposition des habitants d'une ville un nombre très important de conteneurs de collecte, donc à proximité immédiate des habitants, sans offusquer la vue et l'odorat, ni faire prendre des risques considérables en cas de terrorisme urbain.Indeed this solution makes it possible to make available to the inhabitants of a city a very large number of collection containers, therefore in the immediate vicinity of residents, without offending sight and smell, or causing considerable risk urban terrorism.

De plus les dispositifs proposés, grâce à l'absence de câblage, sont d'une rusticité appréciée par les services techniques. La mise en oeuvre par une simple visseuse-dévisseuse du commerce est un énorme avantage. Bien évidemment cette visseuse-dévisseuse est équipée d'un embout, qui lui n'est pas disponible dans le commerce.In addition, the proposed devices, thanks to the absence of wiring, are rustic appreciated by technical services. Implementation by a simple screwdriver-unscrewer trade is a huge advantage. Obviously this screwdriver is equipped with a tip, which is not commercially available.

Enfin la faculté en différenciant les aires de dépôt des aires de vidage des conteneurs standard offre, grâce à la solution de déplacement des conteneurs, la possibilité d'une optimisation opérationnelle et économique du service de ramassage, ainsi que la possibilité de faire évoluer les équipes de ramassage vers une plus grande technicité et mieux valoriser ainsi le travail de ces personnes.Finally the faculty by differentiating the depot areas from the emptying areas of standard containers offers, thanks to the container movement solution, the possibility of operational and economic optimization of the collection service, as well than the possibility of upgrading the collection teams towards greater technicality and thus better value the work of these people.
