Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a garbage collection and transportation device, and its purpose is to collect garbage between a garbage transfer station and a garbage disposal site,
An object of the present invention is to provide a garbage collection and transportation device that allows transportation to be carried out highly efficiently and economically.

Currently, municipal waste is generally collected and transported using road trucks, but this method is inefficient and unhygienic, especially due to rising labor costs, deteriorating traffic conditions, and the remoteness of waste treatment and disposal sites. Collection and transportation costs are increasing year by year, and in addition, the amount of garbage is increasing, the number of workers is decreasing, and pollution problems are occurring.

Therefore, as shown in Fig. 1, waste transfer stations 1, which are directly connected to vacuum transportation routes 2, are established at appropriate locations in the city, and a pneumatic transport method is adopted to transport the waste collected at each waste transfer station 1. It was proposed that the waste be transported directly to the waste treatment and disposal site 3 via a secondary transportation line 4.

However, in this garbage collection and transportation method, the garbage put into the vacuum transportation route 2 is automatically transferred to the garbage transfer station 1, and then from the garbage transfer station 1 to the waste treatment and disposal site 3 under pressure, so it is difficult to use the conventional method. While it is possible to improve most of the above-mentioned drawbacks of road packers, the large amount of air used in the secondary transport line 4 requires larger blowers, dust collectors, deodorizers, etc., and the pressurized structure As a result, garbage input and discharge equipment becomes complicated and expensive, and construction and maintenance costs rise due to the need to take measures against abrasion in the pipes, making the pipe materials expensive. Since it is transported, there are disadvantages such as low concentration in the pipe and poor transport efficiency.

In view of the above-mentioned points, the present invention connects the garbage transfer station and the garbage disposal site by a circular underground passage (pipeline), and arranges a circular connecting vehicle in this circular underground passage to reduce atmospheric pressure. By transporting large quantities of waste continuously using vehicles, we succeeded in creating a highly efficient and economical waste transport line.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG.
3 is a waste disposal site, and 5 is a circular underground passage connecting the waste transfer station 1, 1, 1 and the waste disposal site 3.

The garbage transfer station 1 and the garbage disposal site 3 are installed above ground or underground at appropriate locations in the city, taking into account the location conditions, and are directly connected to the circular underground passage 5.

The ring-shaped underground passage 5 is a dedicated pipeline made of steel pipes, humid pipes, or other suitable pipes and is small enough to not interfere with the running of the ring-shaped connected vehicle, and may be partially laid above ground depending on location conditions. .

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, a rail 6.6 is laid at the bottom of the underground passage 5, and a ring-shaped connecting car 7 is mounted on the rail 6.6.

The annular connecting vehicle 7 sequentially connects a large number of open collection stations lacking both front and end walls over the entire length of the annular underground passage 5 with connecting devices 33, and connects adjacent vehicle bodies with flexible belts 9. It is a ring-shaped connected vehicle that is connected to form an endless gutter-like vehicle body, and the body of the open collection vehicle 8 is structured in the shape of a semi-cylindrical or casing-like gutter with a large storage capacity.

In this embodiment, the traveling drive device for the annular coupled vehicle 7 is installed in a maintenance inspection room 11 arranged at an appropriate interval in the underground passage 5.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, this travel drive device 10 includes a set of bevel gears (not shown) on an output shaft 15 of a speed reduction device 14 connected to a motor 13 via a fluid coupling 12 or the like. A driving shaft 16 is connected to the drive shaft 16 through the sprocket, and a driven shaft 17 arranged parallel to the driving shaft 16 at an appropriate interval is connected by a pair of endless chains 18 and 18 through a sprocket. 18 are provided with bolts 19 protruding at appropriate intervals, and the bolts 19 are locking metal fittings vertically installed on the outer wall of the annular coupling wheel 7 at appropriate intervals. 20.

As shown in FIG. 3, the waste transfer station 1 is equipped with a bunker 22 with an appropriate number of feeders 21 directly connected to a ring-shaped underground passage 5, into which the end of the vacuum transport path 2 is inserted into the upper part, and the lower end is inserted into the bunker 22. A dust collection device 24 equipped with a charging device 23 is installed at the top, and a passageway, a trash crusher, a sieve, etc. are also installed to allow a road packer to input trash as needed.

The waste treatment and disposal site 3 includes a waste discharge device 25 and a bunker 26 directly below it, and the bunker 26 is connected to a waste treatment plant such as an incinerator or recycling device or a disposal site such as a landfill through a feeder 27, a conveyor 28, etc. Connect to.

As shown in the figure, the garbage discharging device 25 has the rotary packet 30 of the packet device 29 or the rotary brush 35 of the packet cleaning device 34 disposed inside the car body of the annular connected vehicle 7, and a sheath board immediately behind each of the rotary packet 30 and the rotary brush 35. 31, 31 and below the sheath plate 31, a conveyor 32 is disposed at right angles to the annular coupler 7, and a wiper (not shown) or the like is provided for removing dust adhering to the outer periphery of the annular coupler 7. will be attached.

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, now the annular connected vehicle 7 is run at an appropriate speed, and the garbage collected at each garbage transfer station 1 is passed through the bunker 22 and the feeder 21 by the vacuum transport path 2 and the road packer vehicle. When the garbage is dropped onto passing vehicles one after another, it is loaded in bulk onto the vehicle and automatically transported to the garbage treatment and disposal site 3.The garbage that has arrived at the garbage treatment and disposal site 3 is removed from the traveling vehicle by the garbage discharge device 25 into a bunker. 2
6 and sent to an incinerator or the like via a feeder 27 and a conveyor 28. On the other hand, the empty vehicles collect garbage dropped from the garbage transfer station 1 while traveling towards the garbage treatment and disposal site 3. and circulate.

In this way, inside the underground passageway 5, the work of collecting and transporting the garbage dropped from the garbage transfer station 1 by the circular articulated vehicle 7 and the work of discharging the transported garbage by the garbage discharge device 25 are performed in parallel. be.

As explained above, according to the present invention, under atmospheric pressure inside the circular underground passage connecting the waste transfer station and the waste disposal site,
By circulating the circular connected cars, the vehicles can carry out the bulk transportation of garbage and the discharge of garbage continuously and in parallel, making it possible to continuously transport large amounts of garbage regardless of the nature and type of garbage. Since there is no pressure difference unlike in transportation methods, the structure of garbage input/discharge equipment, underground passages, etc. is simplified.

However, since the underground passage is a dedicated pipeline configured to be small enough not to interfere with vehicle driving, the diameter is small, so it does not take up much space to bury, and the route can be easily selected.
It is possible to simplify the burial work, shorten the construction period, and reduce construction costs.

In addition, because the bodies of each open car are connected to each other by a flexible band and there are no gaps between the bodies, it is not only possible to transport a large amount of garbage compared to a belt conveyor, but also to reduce the amount of garbage that falls onto the tower. Because there is no waste, there is no clogging or wear inside the pipe due to debris.

In addition, at the waste treatment and disposal site, a packet device that positions the rotating packet inside the car body of a circular connected car and a conveyor installed on the waste discharge side of the rotating packet at right angles to the circular connected car make it possible to remove the garbage on the tower while the vehicle is running. can be efficiently discharged.
