Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refuse container, comprising:
  • Such a container is known from e.g. EP-A-0 692 436 .
  • Yet another object of the invention is to minimize the contact pressure between the lower edge of the cover and the mouth edge of the body and ensure easy clamping of the mouth edge of a plastic refuse bag.
  • the refuse container according to the invention is characterized in that the coupling means are embodied such that they can clampingly hold the mouth edge of a plastic refuse bag, which refuse bag fits in the filled state into the bin formed by the base and the body; the conicity of the body peripheral wall and that of the cover peripheral wall are the same; and the lower edge of the cover is protruding outwardly and the mouth edge of the body peripheral wall is protruding inwardly such that they mutually overlap each other over a substantial surface arena.
  • the coupling means are embodied such that they can clampingly hold the mouth edge of a plastic refuse bag, which refuse bag fits in the filled state into the bin formed by the base and the body; the conicity of the body peripheral wall and that of the cover peripheral wall are the same; and the lower edge of the cover is protruding outwardly and the mouth edge of the body peripheral wall is protruding inwardly such that they mutually overlap each other over a substantial surface arena.
  • the container has the feature that a number of, preferably three, openings are present in angularly equidistant arrangement in the cover.
  • the container can have the special feature that the base is weighted with a weight, for instance an element of concrete, iron and/or lead.
  • the base has on its outer surface two mutually parallel channels open to the outside in which the two prongs of a forklift truck can engage in order to lift the refuse container.
  • the container can advantageously have the special feature that the body peripheral wall has at least one perforation, which is present in the lower zone of this wall.
  • the base, the body and/or the cover are manufactured from plastic optionally reinforced with glass fibre, such as polyester, polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) or ABS.
  • the container has the special feature that two lifting eyes situated diagonally opposite each other are placed on the outer side of the body peripheral wall.
  • this latter container can have the feature that the lifting eyes are releasable.
  • the container has the feature that a lifting eye is arranged in the centre of the upper wall of the cover.
  • the container is characterized by an annular tray which rests on the upper edge of the body peripheral wall and is held in position by the coupling means, and which serves as flame extinguisher and is manufactured from metal, such as steel or aluminium.
  • the container can have the special feature that the base, the body and/or the cover are manufactured by injection moulding or rotation moulding.
  • Container 1 comprises a base 2, a body with a standing body peripheral wall 3, the lower edge of which is connected to base 2.
  • the container further comprises a cover 5 which fits with its peripheral edge 6 onto upper edge 7 of the body peripheral wall 3 and can be coupled releasably thereto by means of coupling means 8 to be described hereinbelow (see also Fig. 3 ).
  • Cover 5 is provided with three openings 9, 10, 11 which are placed angularly equidistantly and which provide access to the space 13 inside the body.
  • Both the body peripheral wall 3 and cover peripheral wall 27 take the form of an upward tapering truncated cone.
  • connection between upper edge 7 and peripheral edge 6 is embodied such that in use the mouth edge of a plastic refuse bag 14 is clamped therebetween.
  • openings 9, 10 and 11 correspond in vertical side view more or less to the truncated cone shape of peripheral wall 27 of cover 5. They therefore have a more or less isosceles trapezium shape and in addition have rounded corners.
  • Base 2 has two mutually parallel channels 15, 16 open to the bottom, in which the prongs of a forklift truck can engage to lift refuse container 1. If desired, the base can also be weighted by a concrete mass poured therein and subsequently cured.
  • the body peripheral wall 3 has three perforations, all designated with 17.
  • Base 2 body and cover 5 can be manufactured from polyester, for instance by making use of a rotomoulding process.
  • said components can be reinforced with glass fibre.
  • a lifting eye 21 is fixed in the centre of the closed upper wall 20 of cover 5.
  • Fig. 2 shows that an annular tray 22 serving as flame extinguisher rests on the upper edge 7 of body peripheral wall 3.
  • This tray is manufactured from metal, for instance steel or aluminium. Lying on this annular tray 22 is a flat ring 30 which ensures that all refuse thrown in through refuse openings 9, 10, 11 falls into space 13.
  • Ring 30 can consist of any suitable material, such as a plastic or metal.
  • Fig. 3 shows that lower edge 6 of cover 5 and mouth edge 7 of body peripheral wall 3 are both flat and mutually overlap over a substantial surface area.
  • Fig. 3 also shows that annular tray 22 and the mouth edge of refuse bag 14 are both clamped between these edges 6 and 7. The coupling takes place by making use of three (in, the drawing only one is shown) quarter-turn clamping locks 23.
  • Fig. 4 shows that the two lifting eyes 18 (and 19) are arranged by means of a screw bolt 24 in a threaded hole 25 and are thus detachable.
  • the threaded hole is formed in a thickened part 28 of body peripheral wall 3.
  • Fig. 5 shows that base 2 and body peripheral wall 3 are mutually connected by means of three (in the drawing only one is drawn) quarter-turn clamping locks 26.
