Definitions

  • the invention concerns a container, particularly refuse container, provided with compacting means to compact material, particularly refuse, said container comprises a storage room, a press room and an entry and comprising a housing and also a funnel being present below the entry and debouch into the press room, said funnel comprises a partition which is present between the entry and the storage room.
  • Such a container is generally known and is often used by refuse lorries to collect household refuse and other refuse.
  • the refuse will be put into the container via the entry and will fall through the funnel before a ram which presses the refuse into the storage room.
  • the ram moves close under the funnel whereby the lower side of said partition of the funnel acts as a breaking beam.
  • material with a relatively high density, like paper, is part of the refuse it often happens that this material sticks between the upper side of the ram and the lower side of the partition of the funnel, and the ram jams between the guide, in which the ram moves, and the partition of the funnel. This obliges an early emptying and cleaning of the container.
  • the emptying takes place by turning the container back to front about a vertical axle and then tipping the container while opening the back wall of the container. It has been appeared that after emptying some refuse remains in the funnel and thus the container is not complete emptied and can pick up less refuse the next time. Moreover it has appeared that the filling of the storage room is not optimum during collecting and compacting of refuse.
  • the container according to the invention is characterised in that the partition is hinged with its upper side to the housing of the container.
  • the partition is freely rotatable about a hinge axle. Because the partition is freely rotatable, refuse can not stick between the lower side of the partition and the upper side of the ram during the compacting movement.
  • the partition turns under the action of its own weigth and releases the room inside the funnel so that no refuse can remain in the funnel. Beside this it has been appeared that by being rotatable of the partition a better filling of the storage room will be obtained because the refuse can get easier in the part of the storage room behind the partition.
  • An embodiment of the container according to the invention is characterised in that the container comprises at least one stop, the partition being present against this stop when the container is in its horizontal position.
  • a further embodiment of the container is characterised in that the partition is heavy constructed and acts as a breaking beam to break the sticked material from each other.
  • the compacting means comprise a movable ram, which comprises a compacting plate at its front end hinged at the remaining part of the ram. It has been appeared, namely, that behind the compacting plate of the ram refuse accumulates which gets under and along the compacting plate during compacting. In case there is too much refuse behind the compacting plate of the ram, the ram can not be pulled back enough and the funnel will be partly closed which obliges a premature emptying and cleaning of the container.
  • the compacting plate By hinging the compacting plate to the ram, the compacting plate turns to the open position during tipping of the container when emptying the container, so that the refuse accumulated behind the compacting plate will fall out of the room behind the compacting plate and it is prevented that too much refuse will accumulate behind the compacting plate.
  • the compacting plate is freely rotatable about a hinge axle.
  • FIG. 1 shows a refuse lorry 1 with a container 3 of the invention.
  • the refuse lorry 1 has an apparatus 5 (shown schematically) for lifting and emptying of refuse boxes 7 into the container 3.
  • the container 3 has a housing 9 comprising an entry 11 which can be closed by a ramp 13.
  • the ramp 13 can be opened and closed by means of a cylinder 15 which is hinged to the ramp 13 and the housing 9.
  • a funnel 17 is present below the entry 11.
  • the funnel 17 has a fixed wall 19, which is fixed to the housing 9 of the container, and a partition 21 which also acts as a breaking beam to break the refuse during compacting.
  • the partition 21 is hinged at the housing 9 and is freely rotatable about a hinge axle 23.
  • the partition 21 rests with both sides against stops 25 which are present at the inner sides of the side walls of the housing 9.
  • the compacting means 27 comprise a ram 31 which can be pushed by a cylinder 33.
  • the cylinder 33 is hinged at the housing 9 and at a frame of the ram 31.
  • the ram 31 has a closing plate 35 at the upper side and a compacting plate 37 at the front side.
  • the compacting plate 37 is hinged at the remaining part of the ram and can rotate freely about a hinge axle 39.
  • the compacting plate 37 can only rotate in the direction of the arrow indicated with a dotted line.
  • the compacting plate is retained by a stop on the ram.
  • the ram 31 presses the refuse into a storage room 41, present in the container, and slips via a guide (not shown) under the funnel to the position indicated with dotted lines.
  • the ram 31 moves close under the partition 21, which breakes the sticked refuse by this movement.
  • the fact that the partition 21 is hinged prevents the refuse from getting sticked between the lower side of the partition 21 and the closing plate 35 of the ram 31. With this also the refuse can get better behind the partition 21 into the storage room 41 so that a better filling of the storage room is obtained.
  • FIG 2 a refuse lorry 1 with a container 3 is shown during emptying of the container.
  • the container 3 Before tipping the container, the container 3 is turned over 180 degrees about a vertical axle in the middle of the container, so that the container 3 is placed back to front on the refuse lorry 1.
  • the container 3 After a back wall 43 of the housing 9 of the container is unlocked, the container 3 will be tipped by a hydraulic cylinder 45 present on the refuse lorry 1.
  • the partition 21 and the compacting plate 37 swing into their open positions and the refuse can fall out of the funnel 17 and out of the room behind the compacting plate 37. In the tipped position the container 3 can be easily cleaned from the back side by a jet of water which cleans the rooms in the funnel 17 and behind the compacting plate 37.
  • pushing means for example a pushing spring
  • the partition will not be rotatable freely but can only rotate against the pushing action of a spring.
  • the partition will then be possible to disconnect the pushing spring.
