Abstract

The container (1) has several chambers (4,5,6) with a lid (7) above each chamber. The lids can be opened and closed independently of each other. The chambers can be emptied separately from each other and have variable sizes. The separating walls (2,3) inside the container (1) can be rearranged. The container can be lifted onto a vehicle by a lifting device and emptied by the same lifting device.

Description

The invention relates to a container, for example a container or trough Collecting and transporting all kinds of waste and goods.

Waste is currently being produced in large troughs and large containers with 3, 5, 7 or 9 m³ Capacity collected and from appropriately equipped vehicles picked up and transported with a lifting device.

However, it is required by law that if possible the waste to be collected according to type.

The invention has for its object to provide a corresponding container To make available.

This object is achieved in that the container several Has chambers. As a result of this measure, the individual chambers of the container, the individual materials are sorted and separated from each other collected and transported.

Advantageously, a cover is arranged above each chamber with which the individual chambers are lockable. It is provided that the cover can be opened independently of each other and the chambers with the lids can be closed independently of one another. As a result of this measure, it is possible that by simply tipping over the container and opening a Lid above one chamber and the closing of the remaining chamber the other lid the respective material from the chamber of the container can be dumped. The chambers can thus be emptied individually.

In order to make optimal use of the volume of the entire container, Depending on the occurrence of the individual types of substances, it is provided that the  Chamber size of the individual chambers is variable. So that's it Capacity of each chamber to the amount of the goods individually adapt depending on the application.

To make this possible, it is provided in a simple manner that the partitions can be moved within the container.

In order to be able to transport and empty the container in a simple manner, is provided that the container is arranged by means of a vehicle Lifting device can be lifted onto the vehicle and by means of this lifting device can be emptied.

Further details of the invention are the example description and the Take drawings. Show here

Fig. 1 shows a container designed as a trough in side view and in schematic representation and

Fig. 2 shows the container in the emptying position in a schematic diagram.

The container is designed as a trough 1 . The two partitions 2 and 3 are arranged within the trough 1 . These partitions 2 and 3 can be arranged at different locations in the container 1 so as to vary the capacity of the individual chambers 4 , 5 and 6 . Due to the two partitions 2 and 3 , the three chambers 4 , 5 and 6 are formed in the trough 1 . Each chamber 4 , 5 and 6 is provided for receiving a different material. Thus, the materials in the container 1 can be collected and transported separately.

A hinged lid 7 is provided above each chamber 4 , 5 and 6 . In the position shown in FIG. 1, all covers 7 are shown in the opened position so that the individual chambers 4 , 5 and 6 of the trough 1 can be filled.

The covers 7 can be opened independently of one another and the chambers 4 , 5 and 6 can be closed with the covers 7 independently of one another. This is especially important for the emptying process which is explained below. The covers 7 are held in the closed position by means of a locking device (not shown).

The body 1 can be picked up by means of a known lifting device of a body vehicle and placed on the loading area of the body vehicle and thus transported.

In order to empty the individual chambers 4 , 5 and 6 of the trough 1 , the lid 7 of the chamber 6 intended for emptying is opened, as shown in FIG. 2, and the container 1 is tilted, as is also shown in FIG. 2 .

If another chamber is to be emptied, the chamber 7 to be emptied is opened by opening the cover 7 . The lid 7 are equipped with a locking device, not shown, so that the lid 7 can be locked in its closed position on the trough 1 . This enables separate emptying.
