Generally, as shown in Fig. 4, a hopper 1 for throwing in garbage is provided at the top, the garbage thrown into the hopper 1 is dropped down, and a ram 2 is moved forward from the side to compress it. A compactor device 5 is known in which the garbage is loaded into a container 3 at the same time.

In this type of compactor device 5, the container 3 is detachably connected, and after the loading of garbage is completed, the container 3 is detached and transferred to a dedicated container carrier (not shown). The entire vehicle is placed on a scale, the weight of the garbage is measured, and then the garbage is transported to a garbage disposal site.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, with this type of device, there is a problem that the work of separating or joining the container 3 from the compactor device 5 is extremely troublesome (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 55-66405,
Publication No. 2882).

Therefore, once the garbage is separated, even if the weight of the garbage has not reached a predetermined weight, it will be carried out to the treatment plant, which poses a problem that the garbage treatment efficiency will be extremely poor.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the conventional technology, and to provide a compactor device that makes it possible to easily measure the weight of garbage collected in a container without separating the container from the compactor device. An object of the present invention is to provide a container weight measuring device.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a compactor device in which the garbage thrown into a hopper is dropped down and a ram is moved from the side to compress the garbage and load it into a container. The pedestal to be loaded is equipped with a weight detection means for measuring the load applied to the pedestal, and a lashing device equipped with a lashing arm that engages with the engagement block on the container side is installed almost perpendicularly to the compactor side. The present invention is characterized in that a holding device is provided on the compactor-side fixing portion to connect the lashing device so as to be swingable in the plane and to lock and unlock the swinging motion of the lashing device.

[Effect]

According to the present invention, when the holding device is set to the unlocked position, the lashing device can swing vertically around the pivot point on the compactor side, thereby freeing the secured container vertically. Therefore, the weight of the container is loaded onto the pedestal, and the weight of the container is measured via the weight detection means. Therefore, the weight of the garbage inside the container can be measured while it is tied down.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, an embodiment of a container weighing device in a compactor apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3, in which the same parts as in FIG. 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals.

The compactor device 5 to which this embodiment is applied has a configuration substantially similar to that shown in FIG. 4. That is, a hopper 1 for throwing in garbage is provided at the top, and the garbage thrown into the hopper 1 is dropped down, and the ram 2 is moved forward from the side to compress and stack the garbage into the container 3. It is configured to fit in.

FIG. 1 shows the main parts of the present invention, in which reference numeral 6 indicates the legs of the compactor device 5, and reference numeral 7 indicates a pedestal on which the container 3 is placed. A load cell 8 for measuring the load applied to the pedestal 7 is attached to the leg portion of the pedestal 7.

A bracket 9 is protruded from the bottom of the compactor device 5, and a support plate 11 is connected to the bracket 9 via a pivot pin 10, which is swingable in a vertical plane. As is clear from FIG. 2, a drive link 13 that is swingable in a horizontal plane is connected to this support plate 11 via a pin 12, and a piston rod operating end of a drive cylinder 15 is connected to this drive link 13. Connected by pins. Further, an intermediate link 16 is connected to the pin 12 so as to be freely rotatable, and a lashing arm 17 is connected to the intermediate link 16.
are connected. This lashing arm 17 and the drive link 13 are connected via a connecting link 18. These structures constitute a lashing device for lashing the container 3.

When the drive cylinder 15 is extended, the lashing arm 17 is displaced in parallel from the solid line to the imaginary line in FIG. 2 via the drive link 13 and the connecting link 18. The position shown by the imaginary line is the lashing release position, and the position shown by the solid line is the lashing position.

In this lashing position, the hook 19 at the tip of the lashing arm 17 engages with the engagement block 20 fixed to the bottom of the container 3, whereby both are securely lashed.

A holding device (see FIG. 1) is provided below this lashing device.

A bracket 21 is fixed to the leg 6. A push-up member 23 is supported on this bracket 21 via a pin 22, and a push-up cylinder 2 is attached to this push-up member 23.
5 are connected. These structures are the holding devices.

This holding device is for holding the securing device so that it does not swing around the pivot pin 10 and lower its tip.The position shown by the imaginary line is the locked position, and the position shown by the solid line is the unlocked position. It's the location. When this holding device is in the unlocked position,
The securing device becomes freely swingable around the pivot pin 10.

In this embodiment, after the container 3 is placed on the pedestal 7, a container pulling cylinder (not shown) is operated, and as shown in FIG.
The container 3 is pulled to a position where it can be secured.

Next, the drive cylinder 15 is operated as described above to move the lashing arm 17 in parallel to the position shown by the solid line in FIG. As a result, the hook 19 at the tip of the lashing arm 17 engages with the engagement block 20 fixed to the bottom of the container 3, and both are securely lashed. The holding device is also placed in the locked position, the vertical movement of the lashing device is restricted, and in this state,
Garbage is loaded from the compactor device 5 into the container 3.

However, according to this embodiment, during loading,
When measuring how much garbage has been collected in the container 3, the lifting cylinder 25 may be operated to bring the holding device to the unlocked position. As a result, the tip of the lashing arm 17 can be freely lowered, so that the container 3 can also be freely lowered.

Then, if the entire weight of the container 3 is loaded on the pedestal 7 and the load applied to the pedestal 7 is measured by the load cell 8, the weight of the garbage as the contents can be easily measured.

FIG. 3 shows the control circuit. Load cell 8
The signal is amplified by an amplifier circuit 30, converted by an A-D converter 31, and sent to an arithmetic circuit 33 via a digital circuit 32. Here, the actual weight of the container 3 is determined. The measured weight here and the appropriate weight are compared in the condition judgment circuit 35, and this result is sent to the control device 36, which controls whether to continue loading the garbage into the container 3 or to stop it. be done.

In this way, the weight of the garbage loaded into the container 3 will be equal to the preset weight, and the garbage processing efficiency will be extremely improved. Also, if the weight display meter 37 is connected to the digital circuit 32,
It is also possible to carry out work while checking the weight of loaded garbage.

[Effect of idea]

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, a lashing device is connected to the compactor side so as to be swingable in a vertical plane, and the lashing device can be locked and unlocked. Since the holding device is installed on the compactor side, if a weight detection means is installed on the pedestal on which the container is placed, simply by moving the holding device to the unlocked position, the container becomes free vertically and its weight is applied to the pedestal. Therefore, by detecting the load applied to this frame, the weight of the garbage as the contents can be easily measured with the lashing device attached.
