Definitions
- the present invention relates to a container of the type designed for collecting waste or refuse at door to door level, and which, at a relatively reduced size, e.g. between 35 and 50 litres, can indiscriminately hold all types of domestic waste or, combined with other similar types, can hold duly classified waste to make its subsequent recycling easier.
- the object of the invention is to achieve a container with a lid, able to avoid unpleasant odours from escaping outside, equipped to firmly hold a rubbish bag inside, which isolates it from the dirt generated by the waste, capable of keeping the lid stable in an open position to make the depositing of waste easier, and can also be stacked up in a stable manner, and finally, that can be suspended from a supporting device, such as, for example, the side of a larger container.
- a plastic bag is placed inside these containers so as to prevent the waste's direct contact with the walls of the container from dirtying it, without there being fixing devices for said bags, in such a way that bags of a significantly larger size with respect to the container must be resorted to, which are capable of, as well as adjusting to the internal area of the container, substantially overhanging from its mouth and folding against the outer face of the side surface.
- the container proposed by the invention solves the series of problems outlined above in a fully satisfactory manner, comprising a structurally simple and functionally efficient solution, at a perfectly affordable cost.
- the container that the invention proposes comprises the functional combination of a body and a lid, as usual, with the body having a similar shape to a frustum so as to facilitate the stacking up of empty containers, but with the special characteristic of the lid having an upper projection coinciding in shape and in size with an indent at the base of the body, in such a way that when two containers are stacked up, in the closed position, they slot together ensuring perfect lateral stability for the upper container.
- the lid is hinged onto the body using laterally coupled pressure sensitive tongue and groove hinges, which allow the lid to be mounted quickly and easily.
- the container's body which at the level of its mouth has an outer perimeter rim to reinforce its structure, incorporates on the underside of said rim and at least in the proximity of its vertices, lugs designed to secure and stabilise the plastic bag housed inside the body, in such a way that even if said bag is undersized with respect to the container, its support is perfectly ensured, with the mouth completely open.
- the container body incorporates, corresponding with said mouth perimeter rim, opposite the hinge-line, a pair of hooks or clasps that allow the container unit to hang from any appropriate support, such as for example, from the edge of a larger sized container.
- container body is also fitted with a conventional handle, materialised in an articulated "U"-shaped bar in the form of a bridge between two lateral points close to the mouth of the body, a handle which, when left down allows the lid to be opened and closed freely, but in the lid's open position can be slid underneath it and, with the help of a pair of lugs existing on the inside of said lid, can hold it perfectly open when depositing waste inside the container.
- said handle will incorporate at least one intermediary straight segment, for support on the lid's inner surface.
- the container proposed by the invention consists of a body (1), of injected plastic, with a shape tending towards an inverted frustum, with a perimeter rim (2) at the level of its mouth that together with a plurality of brackets, which duly reinforces its structure, with said body incorporating a mostly indented base or bottom (3), thus forming a narrow perimeter skirting (4), and establishing in said base (3), close to its front and rear edges respectively, transversally elongated indentations (5) suitable in size for accommodating the tip of the fingers during container handling operations.
- the body (1) incorporates, as a finish to the central longitudinal rear groove (6), a fixed handle (7) that forms a wide window (8) which also allows the hand to be inserted easily, and on either side of the handle (7) are located, by means of stabilising brackets, a pair of coaxial axes (10), which function as hinging devices for a lid (11), consisting of two groups of three clips (12) that can be attached to the respective axes (10) by exerting pressure and that complement the mechanism hinging the lid to the body; the lid has a large projecting mould, designed to form a dovetail joint on the base or bottom (3) of a second container situated on top of the first, in such a way that the skirting (4) of the latter acts as lateral retaining means when the containers are stacked, as shown on figure 5.
- the articulated ends of a handle (15) are incorporated, for a dual purpose, on the one hand to allow normal lifting of the container with its lid, as if it were a conventional container, and on the other hand to serve as a stop to hold up the lid (11) in the open position, as shown in figure 2, and for this purpose, the inner surface of the lid in the area opposite to its hinging area, has a pair of lugs (16) that support the handle (15) in said open lid position.
- the lid (11) has a slot (17) for manual operation thereof, obviously opposite its hinging area, and that at the front edge of the body (1), also in the area opposite the hinges, said body incorporates a pair of projections (18) as a hook or clasp, duly stabilised by means of brackets (19), which together form a concave transversal groove pointing downwards, which allows the container to be "suspended" from any suitable support, such as for example the side of a larger sized container, capable of holding several containers inside.
- the triangular brackets that stabilise the perimeter rim (2) with respect to the body (1) specifically the brackets located in the rear area of its side walls and perfectly visible in figure 4, present their free upper vertex, the one that appears immediately below reference (11), slightly protruding and rounded, in such a way that in a first instance, the handle (15) can be supported against the protruding part of said brackets, held in a horizontal position, but optionally, at the user's discretion, can undergo elastic deformation, by means of pressure applied downwards on its centre, in such a way that its sides sustain slight elastic deformation until the vertex of the brackets is surpassed, and the handle folds down against the rear side of the body (1) of the container making the brackets also act as stops that prevent the handle from swinging back in the opposite direction, as long as pressure is not exerted on it with new deformation thereof, which allows the container to be manoeuvred for tipping without the handle (15) forming an obstacle for this purpose.
