Description

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif pour maintenir un conteneur de collecte de déchets, notamment un bac roulant ou une corbeille, à poste fixe.The present invention relates to a device for holding a waste collection container, including a rolling bin or a basket, fixed station.

On connaît un tel dispositif, comportant des moyens de fixation verrouillables aptes à venir en prise avec le conteneur afin de le maintenir à poste fixe.Such a device is known, comprising locking fastening means capable of coming into engagement with the container in order to keep it stationary.

Dans le cadre du tri sélectif des déchets, les conteneurs de collecte de déchets peuvent comporter un couvercle pourvu d'un accès débouchant dans l'espace intérieur du conteneur. Cet accès peut être constitué par une ouverture circulaire dans le cas d'un conteneur pour la collecte de bouteilles en verre ou rectangulaire pour l'introduction d'emballages ménagers recyclables, par exemple. Cet accès peut être fermé par exemple par un surcouvercle ou des lamelles en caoutchouc pour assurer l'étanchéité du couvercle.In the context of the selective sorting of waste, the waste collection containers may comprise a lid provided with an access opening into the interior space of the container. This access may be constituted by a circular opening in the case of a container for the collection of glass or rectangular bottles for the introduction of recyclable household packaging, for example. This access can be closed for example by a cover or rubber slats to seal the lid.

Ce couvercle peut être verrouillé au moyen d'un système de verrouillage afin d'empêcher que des déchets autres que ceux auxquels le conteneur est destiné y soient introduits, le couvercle pouvant être déverrouillé par l'opérateur qui vient vider le conteneur.This lid can be locked by means of a locking system to prevent waste other than those to which the container is intended to be introduced, the lid can be unlocked by the operator who comes to empty the container.

La mise en place du système de verrouillage entraîne une augmentation du coût de revient du conteneur.The implementation of the locking system leads to an increase in the cost of the container.

De plus, lorsque le conteneur est maintenu à poste fixe par un dispositif avec des moyens de fixation verrouillables, le ramassage implique de nombreuses opérations car l'opérateur doit d'abord déverrouiller les moyens de fixation du dispositif, puis éloigner le conteneur, et ensuite, au moyen d'une clé notamment, procéder à l'ouverture du couvercle.In addition, when the container is held stationary by a device with lockable fastening means, the pickup involves many operations because the operator must first unlock the fastening means of the device, then remove the container, and then using a key, open the lid.

Le modèle d'utilité DE 9413464 décrit un dispositif de verrouillage pour deux bacs comportant, d'une part, des cadres et, d'autre part, un arbre portant des crochets et sur lesquels sont articulés les cadres. L'arbre ainsi que les crochets sont pivotants consécutivement à l'actionnement d'un levier et donc ne sont pas fixes. Ce dispositif de verrouillage nécessite deux moyens de verrouillage distincts.The utility model DE 9413464 discloses a locking device for two bins comprising, on the one hand, frames and, secondly, a shaft carrying hooks and on which are hinged frames. The shaft and the hooks are pivotable consecutively to the actuation of a lever and therefore are not fixed. This locking device requires two separate locking means.

L'invention vise notamment à remédier aux inconvénients précités.The invention aims in particular to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif selon la revendication 1.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a device according to claim 1.

Grâce à l'invention, le conteneur de collecte de déchets peut être dépourvu de système de verrouillage puisque le couvercle est maintenu dans sa position de fermeture au moyen de l'élément de maintien du dispositif.Thanks to the invention, the waste collection container may be devoid of locking system since the lid is held in its closed position by means of the holding element of the device.

Ainsi, le conteneur de collecte de déchets peut être de structure relativement simple, avec un coût de revient avantageux.Thus, the waste collection container can be of relatively simple structure, with an advantageous cost.

De plus, l'élément de maintien étant réalisé sur le dispositif, l'ouverture de ce dispositif libère de manière concomitante le couvercle du conteneur de sorte qu'il n'est pas nécessaire, lors du ramassage des déchets, d'accomplir de nombreuses opérations.In addition, the holding element being formed on the device, the opening of this device releases concomitantly the lid of the container so that it is not necessary, during the collection of waste, to perform many operations.

Dans un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention, l'élément de maintien comporte au moins un bras sensiblement rectiligne.In an exemplary implementation of the invention, the holding element comprises at least one substantially rectilinear arm.

Le dispositif comporte avantageusement deux bras parallèles aptes à être positionnés de part et d'autre dudit accès du couvercle, ces deux bras étant par exemple non reliés entre eux.The device advantageously comprises two parallel arms capable of being positioned on either side of said access of the cover, these two arms being for example not connected to each other.

Les moyens de fixation comprenant une partie de base fixe et une partie mobile articulée sur la partie de base, la partie mobile étant apte à prendre une position d'ouverture libérant la cuve et une position de fermeture dans laquelle la cuve est solidaire du dispositif.The fixing means comprising a fixed base portion and a movable portion hinged to the base portion, the movable portion being adapted to take an open position releasing the vessel and a closed position in which the vessel is secured to the device.

Le ou les bras de maintien précités peuvent être fixés sur la partie mobile.The aforementioned holding arm (s) can be fixed on the moving part.

Lorsque la cuve comporte à l'arrière au moins une poignée, les parties fixe et mobile peuvent comporter des éléments de blocage coopérants pour retenir la poignée sur le dispositif.When the tank has at the rear at least one handle, the fixed and mobile parts may include cooperating locking elements to retain the handle on the device.

De préférence, le dispositif est agencé pour maintenir à poste fixe un unique conteneur.Preferably, the device is arranged to maintain fixed station a single container.

Le dispositif peut comporter un unique moyen de verrouillage pour verrouiller les parties fixe et mobile, contrairement au dispositif décrit dans le modèle d'utilité DE 9413464 précité qui comporte deux moyens de verrouillage distincts.The device may comprise a single locking means for locking the fixed and mobile parts, unlike the device described in the utility model DE 9413464 aforementioned which comprises two separate locking means.

Le conteneur peut être agencé en bac roulant de collecte de déchets ou en corbeille constituant un élément de mobilier urbain.The container can be arranged in a garbage collection bin or in a basket constituting a piece of street furniture.

L'invention pourra être mieux comprise à la lecture de la description détaillée qui va suivre, d'exemples de mise en oeuvre non limitatifs, et à l'examen du dessin annexé, sur lequel :

  • la figure 1 représente, schématiquement et partiellement, en perspective, un dispositif conforme à l'invention, permettant de maintenir un conteneur de collecte de déchets à poste fixe, le dispositif étant en position de fermeture,
  • la figure 2 représente, schématiquement et partiellement, le dispositif de la figure 1, en position d'ouverture, et
  • la figure 3 illustre, schématiquement et partiellement, une variante de mise en oeuvre de l'invention.
The invention will be better understood on reading the detailed description which follows, non-limiting examples of implementation, and on examining the appended drawing, in which:

Le dispositif 1 comporte en outre des moyens de fixation verrouillables comprenant une partie de base fixe 11, s'étendant suivant un axe longitudinal X et une partie mobile 12 articulée sur la partie fixe 11 suivant une direction Y perpendiculaire à l'axe X.The device 1 further comprises lockable fastening means comprising a fixed base portion 11, extending along a longitudinal axis X and a movable portion 12 hinged to the fixed portion 11 in a direction Y perpendicular to the axis X.

Cette partie fixe 11 porte deux éléments de blocage 13 aptes à coopérer respectivement avec deux éléments de blocage 14 de la partie mobile 12 afin de retenir les poignées 5 de la cuve 3 sur le dispositif 1, comme illustré sur la figure 1.This fixed part 11 carries two blocking elements 13 able to cooperate respectively with two locking elements 14 of the mobile part 12 in order to hold the handles 5 of the tank 3 on the device 1, as shown in FIG. figure 1 .

Les éléments de blocage 13 se présentent sous la forme d'une plaquette rectangulaire et les éléments de blocage 14 sous la forme d'une plaquette en équerre venant s'appliquer, en position de fermeture du dispositif 1, sur la plaquette 13.The blocking elements 13 are in the form of a rectangular plate and the blocking elements 14 in the form of a right angle plate coming into contact with the plate 13 in the closed position of the device 1.

La partie mobile 12 comporte une paroi plane 15 s'étendant sensiblement verticalement et sur laquelle se raccorde perpendiculairement deux bras 16 parallèles, et non reliés entre eux.The movable portion 12 comprises a flat wall 15 extending substantially vertically and on which is connected perpendicularly two arms 16 parallel, and not interconnected.

Dans l'exemple décrit, chaque bras 16 est constitué par un élément tubulaire rectiligne de section transversale rectangulaire.In the example described, each arm 16 is constituted by a rectilinear tubular element of rectangular cross section.

Ces bras 16 sont destinés, lorsque le dispositif 1 est en position de fermeture, comme illustré sur la figure 1, à être positionnés au-dessus du couvercle pivotant 4, de part et d'autre de l'accès 6, afin d'interdire l'ouverture de celui-ci.These arms 16 are intended, when the device 1 is in the closed position, as shown in FIG. figure 1 , to be positioned above the pivoting cover 4, on either side of the access 6, to prevent the opening thereof.

Dans l'exemple décrit, la colonne de fixation 10, les parties fixe 11 et mobile 12 et les bras 16 sont réalisés en métal.In the example described, the fixing column 10, the fixed parts 11 and mobile 12 and the arms 16 are made of metal.
