Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hinged lid, in particular for a refuse container, with at least one hinge projection, the end of each of which has a recess for receiving a hinge pin. Furthermore, the invention also relates to a refuse container.
  • hinged lid for refuse containers are known. From the general structure of a garbage container with hinged lid, various disadvantages arise. When opening the hinged lid this can beat against the housing of the refuse container. This striking results in a loud noise. The same applies to the closing movement of the hinged lid. Due to collisions, for example during the transport of garbage containers in the stack, during normal use, such as during a gripping and emptying operation, or the like, it may happen that the hinged lid and / or the at least one hinge projection are made to break. In many cases, these disadvantages occur when lifting and / or tilting machines, such as when emptying the garbage truck.
  • hinged lid can break under the action of forces. This can result in sharp broken edges, which entail a high risk of injury.
  • the lid in the cover area of the body are manufactured with a further reduced material thickness. This in turn means that the hinged lid can easily break by force or impact.
  • the DE 10 2004 025 288 A1 shows a refuse container with a hinged lid and a damping system in the end region of the opening / closing movement.
  • the damping system comprises a with its ends on the one hand on the refuse container and on the other hand hinged on the hinged lid damping cylinder, which prevents the striking at the end of the two movements in that the movement is hydraulically braked.
  • Such a construction is costly and involves the risk of leaking hydraulic oil in itself.
  • such a refuse container has the disadvantage of a breaking hinged lid by the action of force.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a lightweight hinged lid for a refuse container, which with low cost production withstands the stresses of handling and at the same time reduces the noise generated by the stop at the end of the opening movement.
  • a hinged lid for a refuse container is provided with at least one hinge projection, the end of which has a recess for receiving a hinge pin, wherein the hinged lid at least partially has at least two different materials.
  • the hinged lid is therefore inventively formed from at least two different materials.
  • the invention is not limited to specific designs with respect to the different materials.
  • the hinged lid at least partially consists of at least two different materials.
  • the hinged lid at least partially consists of at least two different materials, which are processed in parallel during the manufacturing process and connect during manufacture.
  • the materials can be sprayed in parallel and merge at the meeting.
  • the hinged lid is produced by means of the so-called slide technique.
  • slide technique the space for a second material by suitable locking slide in the tool, for example in the injection mold, during the manufacturing process closed for a first material.
  • the gate valves are opened only after the end of the cooling time for the first material.
  • the introduction, for example, the injection, of the second material is then not parallel, but sequential, the tool is usually not opened.
  • a positive connection between the two materials is not made by fusing, but for example by the fact that the materials interlock.
  • the hinged lid and / or the at least one hinge projection is first produced in the form of a base body with a basic contour of a first material, Darin may be provided in the at least one or more recesses, recesses, holes or the like second material is introduced or will.
  • the hinged lid according to the invention and / or the at least one hinge projection can be produced by means of assembly.
  • at least a part is made of a first material and at least a part of at least a second material. These parts are preferably first prepared separately and then assembled together to form the overall component.
  • the present invention is not limited to the examples mentioned, which are exemplary in nature.
  • the hinged lid is pivotably articulated to the housing of the refuse container via at least one hinged projection connected by a hinge pin to an edge of the refuse container housing.
  • two such hinge projections in particular with respective hinge pins, are provided.
  • the opening movement may be an approximately three-quarter circular movement, wherein the hinged lid is limited in the opening movement by the housing wall of the refuse container. If no further damping of the opening / closing movement is provided, the lid accelerates when opening after exceeding the vertical position to the stop against the housing wall by the gravitational force.
  • the at least one hinge projection of the hinged lid may break due to collisions described above and the lid may be separated from the housing of the refuse container.
  • the second material may be sandwiched in the first material.
  • the first material may be completely replaced by the second material.
  • the second material may be applied to and / or under the first material.
  • the hinged lid may have a grandeur or a projection.
  • the second material for example to the hinged lid on the outer handle side and / or the inside of the opening of the body zugewand side of the hinged lid, be arranged on the first material.
  • the second material may have been introduced by injection into the first material. Depending on the manner of injection of the second material, it may be sandwiched in the first material, or completely replace the first material in at least one region, or applied to the first material.
  • the hinged lid made of plastic. This causes a lower weight compared to a metal waste container. In particular, the forces required to open the lid are reduced by a lighter hinged lid made of plastic. Furthermore, plastic containers are more corrosion resistant than metal containers. In addition to the hinged lid, the housing of the refuse container made of plastic also preferably exists.
  • the present invention is not limited to particular types of plastics.
  • a hard plastic such as hard polyolefin, in particular hard HDPE (High-Denisty Polyethylene) or a similar material.
  • the lid without hinge projection may consist of the aforementioned materials.
  • the material of the lid may be formed with a particularly low material thickness. A small wall thickness of the lid allows cost-effective production by saving material and a lower weight of the hinged lid.
  • the hinged lid and / or the at least one hinge projection consist essentially of a two- or multi-component plastic, wherein the first component is a harder Material and the at least second component is a softer and / or more flexible and / or more elastic material than the first component.
  • the second component can be introduced / attached to the predetermined positions of the hinged lid during manufacture as described above and thus placed precisely at the predetermined areas.
  • a two-component or multi-component plastic can be produced, for example, by means of injection molding, by means of a thermoplastic production method, by means of extrusion, by means of a production method as described above, or the like.
  • An elastic material should generally be a material that does not deform plastically when stressed, but that returns to its initial state when the stress ceases.
  • the at least one hinge projection consists of the second component.
  • the at least one hinge projection When exposed to forces on the hinged lid, for example when loading or unloading, or during transport of the refuse container, this can easily break in the covering of the body.
  • the at least one hinge projection is made of a softer and / or more flexible and / or more elastic material than the hinged lid. When large forces, the hinge projection is bent and may optionally yield, in extreme cases, possibly even break, to prevent breakage of the hinged lid in the covering of the body.
  • the hinge projection may consist essentially of a two-component plastic, wherein the first component is a harder material and the second component is a softer and / or more flexible and / or more elastic material than the first component.
  • Deformation regions can be formed in the hinge projection, which yield deliberately upon the action of forces on the hinged lid and allow the hinge projection to bend or give way.
  • the first component is a hard plastic, such as polyolefin, especially hard HDPE, or a similar material.
  • a hard plastic such as polyolefin, especially hard HDPE, or a similar material.
  • Such materials are easy to process and are inexpensive to produce. It is the standard material in the production of refuse containers.
  • the second component may be a more elastic material than the first component.
  • the second component may be selected from the group of thermoplastic elastomers.
  • the invention is not limited to these examples mentioned.
  • such an elastic material is chosen for the component, which indeed has a similar stability as the material of the first component, but undergoes no plastic deformation under stress, but deformed after elimination of the stress in the initial state.
  • the hinge pin consists of the same material as the second component.
  • the holder of the hinged lid can yield in the hinge, if a force acts on the hinged lid.
  • the hinge pin can be designed such that it acts as a break point on the hinged lid, so that the hinged lid can dodge in the covering of the body.
  • the at least one hinge projection is formed such that it can yield by bending the applied force, and in extreme cases - even more force acts - the hinge pin after a no longer possible way to bend the hinge projection eventually eventually breaks.
  • other areas may be formed on or in the hinged lid with the material of the softer and more flexible component.
  • at least one further area may consist of the material of the second component.
  • this area is arranged widely spaced from the hinge region of the hinged lid. More preferably, this area is formed as a protruding handle for lifting the hinged lid on this. The impact by the impact of the lid against the body is thus absorbed by the softer and more flexible material and only slightly forwarded to the hinged lid from the harder first component.
  • the abutment region or abutment region of the hinged lid against the housing of the refuse container in the open position on the handle side of the hinged lid is formed such that the hinged lid rests against the housing of the refuse container with the top of the at least one hinge projection.
  • the hinge projection may consist of the softer and / or more flexible and / or more elastic component, so that the impact absorbed by the impact of the hinged lid against the body by the softer and / or more flexible and / or more elastic material on the hinge plates and only slightly on the hinged lid from the harder first component is forwarded.
