- the implementation of the method according to the invention allows the ad hoc service of the municipality or dealer to view remotely, Figure 1, the status of a display (5) disposed on a hopper (3) intended to receive solid waste through its inlet mouth (4), this display (5) providing the filling status of the container (1) buried in a pit (2) under the road.
- Figure 2 details the operation of the process where we see the waste (7), what whatever its nature, shape, material and weight, descending by gravity into the hopper (3) after being introduced into the mouth (4), the shape of which is adapted to the nature of the waste collected in the container (1).
- a pallet (8) articulated around an axis (9) and balanced by a counterweight (10), calibrated so that the pallet after being struck by the movement of the waste (7), according to FIG. 2 (a), (b) and (c), returns to its horizontal position.

- the type actuator (11a), articulated in (12a) with the pallet (8) will behave, as a rigid rod, as if pushed upwards by the movement (figure 2b) of the pallet when the waste (7) passes through the hopper (3).
- the actuator type (11b), articulated in (12b) with the pallet (8) will behave as a rigid rod or link flexible, like a cable or chain, as pulled down by the movement ( Figure 2b) of the pallet when the waste (7) passes through the hopper (3).
- the counterweight (10a), (10b) or (10c) is adjustable in position as indicated in (13a), (13b) or (13c), for example so continuous, allowing the return torque of the pallet (8) articulated around to be varied the axis (9).

Abstract
Description
Le domaine de l'invention est celui des conteneurs réceptacles de déchets solides, triés ou non, existant sur la voirie publique et susceptibles d'être enterrés sous cette voirie. Plus précisément l'invention concerne un procédé et des dispositifs permettant à une municipalité ou à une entreprise en ayant la concession, de surveiller à distance le remplissage progressif des divers conteneurs. Elle concerne également tout particulier ou entreprise privée désirant faire de même sur un terrain privé avec ses propres conteneurs.The field of the invention is that of receptacles for solid waste, sorted or not, existing on public roads and likely to be buried under this road. More specifically, the invention relates to a method and devices allowing a municipality or a company with the concession, to remotely monitor the progressive filling of the various containers. It also concerns any individual or private company wishing to do the same on private land with its own containers.
En effet, 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 publique.Indeed, the essential 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, expressing more and more a desire to control its urban environment, in particular to plans of visual, sound, even olfactory nuisances, these requirements coming additional constraints of convenience of access, efficiency of service, without giving up obviously to public safety requirements.
En fait, le problème posé n'a pu être concrètement résolu que si les conteneurs de dépose spécialisée ont été enterrés, seul dépassant du sol l'organe d'introduction des déchets, comme l'établit la demande de brevet n° 97/01718 du 14 février 1997.In fact, the problem posed could only be concretely resolved if the containers of specialized removal were buried, only protruding from the ground the organ for introducing waste, as established by patent application No. 97/01718 of February 14, 1997.
Cependant il subsiste le problème de la détection de la fin de remplissage du conteneur, lequel, jusqu'à la présente invention, n'avait d'autres solutions que le constat, trop tardif, du débordement dudit conteneur par apparition de déchets divers déposés aux alentours, constituant ainsi une pollution, au moins visuelle, au plus présentant des risques d'hygiène ou de blessure pour le public environnant, sans omettre les cas de blocage de mécanismes divers dus à ces débordements incontrôlés.However, there remains the problem of detecting the end of filling of the container, which, until the present invention, had no other solution than the observation, too late, overflowing of said container by appearance of various waste deposited at surroundings, thus constituting pollution, at least visual, at most presenting risks hygiene or injury to the surrounding public, without forgetting the cases of blockage of various mechanisms due to these uncontrolled overflows.
Il convenait de trouver une solution pour prévenir, par un quelconque moyen, les responsables de l'enlèvement des conteneurs, de l'imminence de ce débordement, afin qu'ils puissent intervenir préventivement.A solution had to be found to prevent, by any means, the responsible for the removal of the containers, the imminence of this overflow, so that they can intervene preventively.
Ces objectifs sont atteints et ces problèmes sont résolus selon l'invention à l'aide de la mise en oeuvre d'un procédé comprenant les dispositifs suivants :
- Un capteur est installé dans le corps de la bouche d'entrée par laquelle les déchets, quels qu'ils soient, sont précipités. Ce capteur se présente sous la forme d'une palette, basculant au passage de l'objet jeté. Cette palette est plus ou moins grande et obture plus ou moins partiellement le conduit. Elle est par ailleurs équilibrée par un contrepoids ou par un ressort de rappel, de façon à revenir toujours, après le passage d'un objet, en situation horizontale d'obstruction partielle. Ainsi cette palette retiendra des objets trop légers, de même que des objets trop petits pourront tomber dans le conteneur sans déclencher le capteur. Ces deux éléments, dimension de la palette dans le conduit et importance du couple de rappel sont les deux éléments essentiels du réglage du dispositif, réglage susceptible de varier, par exemple entre une bouteille plastique et une bouteille verre, mais aussi pour du papier ou une canette métal, etc.
- Ce capteur informe un compteur, lequel s'incrémente à chaque passage. Préférentiellement cette transmission d'information s'effectuera mécaniquement par une tige, une chaínette, un câble, etc. Ce compteur mécanique, ou pneumatique s'incrémente donc à chaque impulsion reçue. Un dispositif manuel ou automatique permet de le remettre à zéro.
- Ce compteur peut également être réglable, afin de permettre une grande dynamique de comptage, comme par exemple, pour un conteneur donné, couvrir aussi bien le nombre de sacs d'ordures ménagères que le nombre de canettes possibles pour son remplissage.
- Ce compteur informe à son tour un afficheur, lequel est vu, entre autre, par le personnel responsable du relèvement des conteneurs en question et donc prévenu du niveau de remplissage dudit conteneur. Préférentiellement cet afficheur sera de lecture simple et présentera, par exemple, trois états, vert, orange et rouge.
- A sensor is installed in the body of the inlet mouth through which any waste is precipitated. This sensor is in the form of a pallet, tilting as the thrown object passes. This pallet is more or less large and more or less partially blocks the duct. It is also balanced by a counterweight or by a return spring, so as to always return, after the passage of an object, in a horizontal situation of partial obstruction. This palette will hold objects that are too light, just as objects that are too small may fall into the container without triggering the sensor. These two elements, dimension of the pallet in the conduit and importance of the return torque are the two essential elements of the adjustment of the device, adjustment likely to vary, for example between a plastic bottle and a glass bottle, but also for paper or a metal can, etc.
- This sensor informs a counter, which increments with each pass. Preferably, this transmission of information will be carried out mechanically by a rod, a chain, a cable, etc. This mechanical or pneumatic counter therefore increments with each pulse received. A manual or automatic device can reset it.
- This counter can also be adjustable, in order to allow a large counting dynamic, as for example, for a given container, covering both the number of bags of household waste and the number of cans possible for filling it.
- This counter in turn informs a display, which is seen, among other things, by the personnel responsible for lifting the containers in question and therefore warned of the filling level of said container. Preferably, this display will be simple to read and will present, for example, three states, green, orange and red.
Plus particulièrement, la mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention comprend :
- un capteur mécanique de passage de déchets réglables à la fois en poids et en volume, placé dans la bouche d'entrée des déchets et actionné sélectivement par le passage de certains déchets,
- un compteur associé à ce capteur et transmettant l'information du taux de remplissage à un afficheur visible de l'extérieure,
- le calibrage de cet afficheur sur un constat expérimental, du au fait qu'un conteneur de grande taille, recevant un certain type de déchet, à un certain endroit, se remplit toujours, d'après les exploitants, de la même manière, la typologie de son contenu étant d'une grande constance,
- de plus ce capteur assure, en cas de conteneur plein, le blocage ou la fermeture de la bouche d'entrée, évitant ainsi un bourrage ou un blocage, toujours préjudiciable dans les solutions enterrées.
- a mechanical waste passage sensor adjustable both in weight and in volume, placed in the waste inlet mouth and actuated selectively by the passage of certain waste,
- a counter associated with this sensor and transmitting information on the filling rate to a display visible from the outside,
- the calibration of this display on an experimental observation, due to the fact that a large container, receiving a certain type of waste, at a certain place, always fills, according to the operators, in the same way, the typology of its content being very consistent,
- in addition, this sensor ensures, in the case of a full container, the blocking or closing of the inlet mouth, thus avoiding a jam or blockage, always harmful in the buried solutions.
Ce compteur et cet afficheur peuvent être de nature électrique ou électronique, exigeant ainsi un apport d'énergie électrique. Préférentiellement, dans l'esprit du brevet précité, ils seront de nature pneumatique ou mécanique, en l'occurrence ne nécessitant aucune énergie extérieure. This counter and this display can be electrical or electronic in nature, thus requiring a supply of electrical energy. Preferably, in the spirit of the patent mentioned above, they will be pneumatic or mechanical, in this case not requiring no external energy.
Quant à l'afficheur, plutôt que de présenter une information numérique précise, il présentera préférentiellement une information à caractère analogique de type alarme en couleur successivement, verte, orange et rouge.As for the display, rather than presenting precise digital information, it preferentially present analog information of alarm type in color successively, green, orange and red.
Cette alarme sera visible du citoyen déposant ses déchets, mais préférentiellement, cet afficheur sera placé de manière à être visible des préposés au vidage desdits conteneurs, par exemple côté rue pour une vision depuis une voiture.This alarm will be visible to the citizen depositing their waste, but preferably, this display will be placed so as to be visible to the emptiers of said containers, for example on the street side for a vision from a car.
Ainsi, les services de la municipalité ou du concessionnaire, peuvent aisément et notamment depuis un véhicule de service, effectuant une ronde de surveillance, détecter à temps les conteneurs s'approchant de la fin de leur remplissage et faire procéder alors, après relevage, à leur vidage ou à leur remplacement par des conteneurs vides.Thus, the services of the municipality or the concessionaire can easily and in particular from a service vehicle, carrying out a surveillance round, detecting at time containers approaching completion of filling and then proceed after lifting, emptying or replacing them with empty containers.
Bien évidemment, renonçant à une solution sans apport d'énergie, il est possible d'associer à ce compteur un dispositif émetteur, filaire ou hertzien, transmettant à distance l'information en question.Obviously, giving up a solution without energy input, it is possible to associate with this counter a transmitting device, wired or wireless, transmitting remotely the information in question.
Il peut s'agir d'une distance faible, informant par exemple au passage une voiture circulant à vitesse normale de l'état de remplissage de l'ensemble des conteneurs de la ville. Dans ce cas il s'agira d'une liaison de type hertzien, de faible puissance.It can be a short distance, for example informing a car in passing traveling at normal speed from the filling state of all of the city's containers. In this case it will be a radio link, of low power.
Il peut s'agir également d'un véritable centre de Gestion Technique Centralisée regroupant ces informations en un point central, lequel déclenche les interventions. Idéalement on choisira une relation sous forme d'une interrogation par le central une ou plusieurs fois par jour et le dispositif compteur renvoie son état. Dans ce cas, il peut s'agir également d'une liaison hertzienne de type radiotéléphone ou d'une liaison filaire de type modem téléphonique.It can also be a real centralized technical management center gathering this information at a central point, which triggers interventions. Ideally we will choose a relationship in the form of an interrogation by the central one or several times a day and the counter device returns its status. In this case, it may be also of a radio link of the radiotelephone type or of a wired link of the telephone modem.

La mise en oeuvre du procédé selon l'invention permet au service ad hoc de la municipalité ou du concessionnaire de visualiser à distance, figure 1, l'état d'un afficheur (5) disposé sur une trémie (3) destinée à recevoir des déchets solides au travers de sa bouche d'entrée (4), cet afficheur (5) fournissant l'état du remplissage du conteneur (1) enterré dans une fosse (2) sous la voirie.The implementation of the method according to the invention allows the ad hoc service of the municipality or dealer to view remotely, Figure 1, the status of a display (5) disposed on a hopper (3) intended to receive solid waste through its inlet mouth (4), this display (5) providing the filling status of the container (1) buried in a pit (2) under the road.
Sur cette même trémie (3) figure un autre afficheur (6) qui lui informe le public que le conteneur (1) est plein et que la bouche d'entrée (4) est fermée.On this same hopper (3) is another display (6) which informs the public that the container (1) is full and the inlet mouth (4) is closed.
La figure 2 détaille le fonctionnement du procédé où l'on voit le déchet (7), quelle qu'en soit sa nature, sa forme, sa matière et son poids, en train de descendre par gravité dans la trémie (3) après avoir été introduit dans la bouche (4), dont la forme est adaptée à la nature du déchet recueilli dans le conteneur (1).Figure 2 details the operation of the process where we see the waste (7), what whatever its nature, shape, material and weight, descending by gravity into the hopper (3) after being introduced into the mouth (4), the shape of which is adapted to the nature of the waste collected in the container (1).
Dans la trémie se trouve une palette (8), articulée autour d'un axe (9) et équilibrée par un contrepoids (10), calibré de telle manière que la palette après avoir été heurtée par le mouvement du déchet (7), selon la figure 2 (a), (b) et (c), reprenne sa position horizontale.In the hopper is a pallet (8), articulated around an axis (9) and balanced by a counterweight (10), calibrated so that the pallet after being struck by the movement of the waste (7), according to FIG. 2 (a), (b) and (c), returns to its horizontal position.
Ce mouvement de la palette (8) est transmis à un actionneur (11a ou 11b) articulé en (12a ou 12b) à la palette (8). L'actionneur de type (11a), articulé en (12a) avec la palette (8) se conduira, en tant que tige rigide, comme poussé vers le haut par le mouvement (figure 2b) de la palette au moment du passage du déchet (7) dans la trémie (3). L'actionneur de type (11b), articulé en (12b) avec la palette (8) se conduira en tant que tige rigide ou lien souple, tel un câble ou une chaínette, comme tiré vers le bas par le mouvement (figure 2b) de la palette au moment du passage du déchet (7) dans la trémie (3).This movement of the pallet (8) is transmitted to an actuator (11a or 11b) articulated in (12a or 12b) on the pallet (8). The type actuator (11a), articulated in (12a) with the pallet (8) will behave, as a rigid rod, as if pushed upwards by the movement (figure 2b) of the pallet when the waste (7) passes through the hopper (3). The actuator type (11b), articulated in (12b) with the pallet (8) will behave as a rigid rod or link flexible, like a cable or chain, as pulled down by the movement (Figure 2b) of the pallet when the waste (7) passes through the hopper (3).
L'un des avantages du procédé selon l'invention vient de la possibilité d'adapter cette fonction de capture d'information à la totalité des types de déchets solides susceptibles d'être collectés. En effet comme il apparaít dans la figure 3, il est possible d'adapter la forme et la surface de la palette (8), articulée autour de l'axe (9), comme il est montré en (8a), (8b) ou (8c), de manière à ce que celle-ci n'obture que partiellement ou très partiellement la section de passage de la trémie (3).One of the advantages of the method according to the invention comes from the possibility of adapting this information capture function to all types of solid waste likely to be collected. Indeed as it appears in Figure 3, it is possible to adapt the shape and surface of the pallet (8), articulated around the axis (9), as shown in (8a), (8b) or (8c), so that it only partially or very closes partially the hopper passage section (3).
De plus, comme il est montré dans la figure 4, le contrepoids (10a), (10b) ou (10c) est réglable en position comme indiqué en (13a), (13b) ou (13c), par exemple de manière continue, permettant de faire varier le couple de rappel de la palette (8) articulée autour de l'axe (9). In addition, as shown in Figure 4, the counterweight (10a), (10b) or (10c) is adjustable in position as indicated in (13a), (13b) or (13c), for example so continuous, allowing the return torque of the pallet (8) articulated around to be varied the axis (9).
Grâce à ce procédé il sera possible de faire varier la sensibilité de ce capteur de manière à ne détecter que les déchets (7) supérieurs à un certain poids et d'ignorer les autres. De même grâce à ce procédé il sera possible de faire varier la sensibilité de ce capteur de manière à ne détecter que les déchets (7) supérieurs à un certain volume et d'ignorer les autres. En effet les déchets (7) trop légers ne feront pas basculer la palette et s'y accumuleront jusqu'à ce que leur poids cumulé soit suffisant. De même les objets trop petits pourront s'échapper par les côtés, ne mettant pas ainsi en oeuvre le mouvement de la palette. Or les responsables de la collecte des déchets savent qu'un conteneur donné, à un endroit donné, recueillant des déchets donnés, se remplit toujours de la même manière, et qu'ainsi, disposant de ces éléments de réglage, il sera possible de capter une information de remplissage d'un conteneur avec une très grande fiabilité, car issue de l'expérience recueillie sur le terrain.Thanks to this process it will be possible to vary the sensitivity of this sensor so as to detect only waste (7) greater than a certain weight and to ignore the other. Likewise thanks to this process it will be possible to vary the sensitivity of this sensor so as to detect only the waste (7) greater than a certain volume and to ignore the other. Indeed the too light waste (7) will not tip the pallet and there will accumulate until their cumulative weight is sufficient. Likewise too small objects may escape from the sides, thus not implementing the movement of the pallet. However, those responsible for collecting waste know that a given container, in a place given, collecting donated waste, always fills in the same way, and so, having these adjustment elements, it will be possible to receive information from filling a container with very high reliability, as it comes from the experience gathered in the field.
Cette information est donc transmise par l'actionneur (11) de type "pousseur" (11a) ou "tireur" (11b) à un compteur d'impulsion (15) comme indiqué dans la figure 5. Préférentiellement il sera un compteur mécanique ou pneumatique du commerce, dit compteur de coup ou compteur d'impulsion, n'exigeant ainsi aucun apport d'énergie extérieure.This information is therefore transmitted by the actuator (11) of the "pusher" type (11a). or "shooter" (11b) to a pulse counter (15) as shown in Figure 5. Preferably it will be a mechanical or pneumatic counter of the trade, says blow counter or pulse counter, thus requiring no energy input outside.
Ce compteur d'impulsion (15) est de type dit "incrémental" ou dit "à cliquet", c'est à dire qu'il s'incrémente à chaque impulsion reçue. Bien évidemment il possède une fonction dite " de remise à zéro " illustrée par un actionneur (18), rigide ou souple, actionné (19) manuellement ou automatiquement, par exemple par le mouvement de sortie du conteneur (1) comme proposé dans le brevet précité.This pulse counter (15) is of the so-called "incremental" or "ratchet" type, say that it increments with each impulse received. Obviously it has a function called "reset" illustrated by an actuator (18), rigid or flexible, actuated (19) manually or automatically, for example by moving out of the container (1) as proposed in the aforementioned patent.
Dans une variante de réalisation, ce type de compteur possède une roue dentée ou une roue à picots, facilement changeable, ce qui permet de modifier le calibrage de ce compteur et lui permettre une dynamique de comptage adaptée au déchet recueilli.In an alternative embodiment, this type of counter has a toothed wheel or a pin wheel, easily changeable, which allows to modify the calibration of this counter and allow it a dynamic counting adapted to the collected waste.
Le compteur (15) possède un afficheur (16) généralement de forme cylindrique, positionné devant une fenêtre (14) placée dans la paroi de la trémie (3). Préférentiellement, cet afficheur (16) du compteur (15) présentera derrière la fenêtre (14), une information à caractère analogique de type alarme en couleur vert (20), orange (21) et rouge (22) comme indiquée dans la figure 6, plutôt qu'une information à caractère numérique.The counter (15) has a display (16) generally of cylindrical shape, positioned in front of a window (14) placed in the wall of the hopper (3). Preferably, this counter display (16) of the counter (15) will present behind the window (14), information to alarm type analog character in green (20), orange (21) and red (22) color shown in Figure 6, rather than digital information.
Dans cette variante de réalisation, ce dispositif assure également la fonction blocage ou fermeture de la bouche d'entrée (4) des déchets (7) dans la trémie (3). La figure 7 prend comme exemple le cas le plus difficile où les déchets (7) sont des déchets ménagers volumineux et où la bouche d'entrée (4) est réalisée sous la forme d'un tiroir basculant (23), dit de vide-ordures, articulée autour d'un axe horizontal (24).In this alternative embodiment, this device also performs the blocking function. or closing the inlet mouth (4) of the waste (7) in the hopper (3). Figure 7 takes as an example the most difficult case where the waste (7) is household waste bulky and where the inlet mouth (4) is made in the form of a tilting drawer (23), said garbage chute, articulated around a horizontal axis (24).
La palette (8), précédemment décrite, articulée autour d'un axe horizontal (9), possède également un actionneur (25), articulée autour de l'axe horizontal (12) précédemment utilisé par l'autre actionneur (11) destiné au compteur (15). Si l'actionneur (11) est du type (11a) comme indiqué dans la figure 2, l'actionneur (11a) et l'actionneur (25) peuvent être confondus en un seul objet.The pallet (8), previously described, articulated around a horizontal axis (9), also has an actuator (25), articulated around the horizontal axis (12) previously used by the other actuator (11) intended for the counter (15). If the actuator (11) is of the type (11a) as shown in Figure 2, the actuator (11a) and the actuator (25) can be merged into a single object.
Cet actionneur (25) pénètre dans un serrure simple de type loquet (26). S'il reste en position haute, suite à une accumulation de déchets (7), empêchant la palette (8) de reprendre, grâce à son contrepoids (10), sa position de repos horizontale, il empêche alors l'ouverture du tiroir basculant.This actuator (25) enters a simple latch-type lock (26). If he stays in high position, following an accumulation of waste (7), preventing the pallet (8) from resume, thanks to its counterweight (10), its horizontal rest position, it then prevents the opening of the tilting drawer.
Dans le cas des bouches d'entrée sans tiroir basculant, une trappe est poussée pour permettre l'introduction des déchets de type bouteille verre ou plastique, métal, papier, etc. De la même manière la trappe est immobilisée par l'actionneur (25).In the case of inlet openings without a tilting drawer, a hatch is pushed to allow the introduction of waste such as glass or plastic bottles, metal, paper, etc. In the same way the hatch is immobilized by the actuator (25).
Par ailleurs, comme l'illustre la figure 8, le mouvement de bascule de la palette (8) sera utilisé par un actionneur (25) dont le mouvement (30) sera utilisé par un autre dispositif afficheur (6), qui comme le précédant est constitué d'une fenêtre (27) semblable à la fenêtre (14), également placée dans l'épaisseur de la trémie (3) et derrière la quelle se trouve l'afficheur proprement dit (28). Celui-ci, lié en (29) à l'actionneur (25), subit les mouvements (30) de ce dernier à chaque passage de déchets.Furthermore, as illustrated in FIG. 8, the rocking movement of the pallet (8) will be used by an actuator (25) whose movement (30) will be used by another device display (6), which, like the previous one, consists of a window (27) similar to the window (14), also placed in the thickness of the hopper (3) and behind which it is the display itself (28). This, linked in (29) to the actuator (25), undergoes the movements (30) of the latter on each passage of waste.
Comme l'illustre la figure 9, cet afficheur (28) est constitué de deux zones (31) et (32), idéalement verte et rouge, accompagnés éventuellement d'indications écrites. Quand la palette (8) est bloquée par des déchets (7), l'actionneur (25) et l'afficheur (28) se retrouve en situation haute, et seule la zone (32), rouge, reste visible derrière la fenêtre (27) de l'afficheur (6), renseignant ainsi l'usager du fait que le conteneur (1) est plein et justifiant ainsi le blocage de l'ouverture (4).As illustrated in FIG. 9, this display (28) consists of two zones (31) and (32), ideally green and red, possibly accompanied by written indications. When the pallet (8) is blocked by waste (7), the actuator (25) and the display (28) are found in high position, and only the red zone (32) remains visible behind the window (27) of the display (6), thus informing the user of the fact that the container (1) is full and justifying thus blocking the opening (4).
On comprend ainsi que la mise en oeuvre de ce procédé selon l'invention constitue principalement pour les collectivités locales, agissant directement ou par l'intermédiaire de concessionnaires, une avancée spectaculaire dans la mise en oeuvre pratique et ergonomique des solutions de collecte sélective des déchets.It is thus understood that the implementation of this method according to the invention constitutes mainly for local authorities, acting directly or through dealers, a spectacular step forward in practical and ergonomic implementation selective waste collection solutions.
En effet ce procédé selon l'invention permet,
- d'une part, de prévenir, avant que le conteneur ne soit plein, les services préposés au ramassage et à l'enlèvement des déchets, de l'utilité de procéder à l'enlèvement ou au remplacement du conteneur en question,
- d'autre part de prévenir l'utilisateur du fait qu'un conteneur est, malheureusement, plein et d'en interdire l'accès dès cet instant.
- on the one hand, to notify, before the container is full, the services responsible for picking up and removing waste, of the usefulness of removing or replacing the container in question,
- on the other hand to warn the user that a container is, unfortunately, full and to prohibit access from that moment.
On conçoit aisément que le procédé selon l'invention permette un grand progrès dans la gestion du ramassage des déchets, en particulier quand ceux-ci font l'objet d'un tri par apport volontaire des habitants, ce qui conduit à des vitesses de remplissage différentes selon la nature des déchets collectés.It is easy to see that the process according to the invention allows great progress in management of waste collection, especially when it is sorted by voluntary contribution from residents, which leads to different filling speeds depending on the nature of the waste collected.
Le concessionnaire du relevage est enfin facilement informé du degré de remplissage des différents conteneurs. De plus le dispositif de blocage de la bouche d'entrée au cas d'un conteneur plein évite les débordements, toujours plus préjudiciables quand les conteneurs sont enterrés. Beaucoup d'usagers étant correctement informés du motif de ce blocage, se conduiront de manière civique, ce qui réduira d'autant les éventuelles dégradations du matériel urbain.The lift dealer is finally easily informed of the degree of filling different containers. In addition, the blocking device for the inlet mouth in the event of full container avoids overflows, always more damaging when containers are buried. Many users being correctly informed of the reason for this blockage, drive in a civic manner, which will reduce any damage to the vehicle urban material.
