Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a retaining device for the corresponding refuse containers in the preamble of claim 1.
  • a retaining device for the corresponding refuse containers in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is known from DE-A-2515929.
  • the so-called "frontal grip” type has developed more than others; they include a comb on which one or two containers are hung by their flange which is then trapped by clamps moved by jacks. During the rotation phase of the container for emptying into the hopper of the bucket, it is driven by a stopper mounted on the arms of the lifting mechanism.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a retaining device of the kind specified above which ensures a certain flexibility of the assembly, which can be used regardless of the type of container to be emptied and which is less heavy and less expensive than the devices currently existing.
  • this suction cup retaining device makes it possible to make the container to be emptied and the lifting mechanism integral with one another by simply creating a vacuum inside the suction cup. Then just remove this depression to release the container.
  • the flexibility of the lips of the suction cup leaves the container with a low amplitude in its final tilting phase, to take account only of the play of the moving parts. In this way, the flange of the container is not subjected to the violent forces that are observed when using known systems.
  • the suction cup specified above is elastically mounted on the lifting mechanism of the bucket, and this, preferably, by means of a coaxial compression spring . This provision allows the tilting effort to be taken up by the buffer of the container lifter, and not by the suction cup.
  • the suction cup specified above is mounted in an articulated manner on the mechanism for lifting the bucket, and this, preferably, by means of a Cardan joint.
  • This joint allows the suction cup to adapt to the walls of the molded plastic containers whose clearance angle varies between 0 and 4 °.
  • the dimensions and the position of the retaining device according to the present invention are such that in the absence of any vacuum in the specified suction cup above, there is a play, of a few millimeters for example, between the stopper of the lifting mechanism and the container to be emptied when the latter has just been hung on the comb of the lifting mechanism.
  • the vacuum of the suction cup, and therefore its attachment to the container to be emptied is caused only a few centimeters after the start of the handling or lifting phase.
  • the retaining device according to the invention comprises a suction cup on each arm of the bucket lifting mechanism.
  • this retaining device can take place manually, it can also be achieved by means of automatically creating and removing the vacuum in the suction cup of the retaining device when the mechanism for lifting the bucket reaches a predetermined point of its course.
  • Figure 1 shows a garbage container 1 hooked by its flange 2 on the comb 3 of a lifting mechanism which is generally designated by the reference 4, which is only shown schematically, and which, by tilting by about 180 ° around a horizontal axis 5, in the direction of the arrows F, brings the container 1, upside down, above the hopper for loading a bucket not shown.
  • a clamp 6 rotates around the axis 5, in the direction of the arrow F ′, under the effect of a hydraulic cylinder 7, to bring it from its open position, in broken lines in FIG. 1, to its closed position in solid lines in which it traps over the flange 2.
  • a stopper 8 turned towards the container 1, is mounted on the end lower of the lifting arms 9 of the mechanism 4, which are generally two in number.
  • a retaining device is fixed to each lifting arm 9 extending towards the container 1.
  • this device 10 comprises a compression spring 11 which is fixed to the corresponding lifting arm 9 and the free end 12 of which is articulated by a horizontal axis 13 on a vertical journal 14.
  • the latter is articulated by an axis 15 in a yoke 16, the sole of which carries, on the side of the container 1, a suction cup 17 connected to a pneumatic system, not shown, making it possible to create a vacuum there and to eliminate it.
  • the free end 12 of the spring 11 is connected to the suction cup 17 by a cardan joint formed by the pin 14 and the axes 13 and 15.
  • the operating mode of the device which has just been described is as follows: the container 1 is hooked as usual by its flange 2 on the comb 3 of the lifting mechanism 4, and it comes to bear on the suction cup 17, as it has been shown in solid lines in FIG. 1, the dimensions and the position of the retaining device 10 being such that the container 1 is spaced from the stopper 8 by a distance d equal to a few millimeters, 2 to 10 for example .
  • the suction cup 17 progressively collapses under the weight of the container, and the latter ends up approaching the stopper 8, as is can be seen in FIG. 2 and, in broken lines, in FIG. 1.
  • a vacuum is then applied inside the suction cup 17 which crashes on the container 1, a deformation of the compression spring 11 which compensates for the displacement of the articulation 13, 14, 15.
  • the raising of the container 1 continues, however it is retained on the lifting mechanism 4, bearing on the stopper 8, by the suction device according to the invention, 10.
  • the vacuuming of the suction cup 17 and its return to atmospheric pressure can be carried out by means of a manual control, but it is easy to subject these operations to the movements of the lifting mechanism 4 which, for example, can come in taken with a trigger stop at a given point in its course.
  • Such automatism is within the reach of any person skilled in the art, and it will therefore not be described here in more detail.
  • the lifting mechanism could have a configuration different from that comprising lifting arms 9, and that several containers could be hung simultaneously on the comb 3 of the lifting mechanism 4.
