Description

Device for collecting waste.

Technical field

The object of the present invention, as expressed in the statement of this specification, does reference to a device for waste collection perfected, of the type used in selective manual removal of small and medium sized waste (such as papers, cans and others) that can be found on the floor.

Background of the invention

There are basically two types of devices for manual collection of small waste and medium size: those consisting of an elongated bar with grip of some kind at its end and finished in clamp or in a bag (or both) at its distal end, and those that are finished in some kind of sharp element at the distal end.

Of those of the second type, there are different models on the market such as those described in the model of utility U9600123 or 200302769, basically constituted, as already it has been commented, by an elongated bar equipped with a handle on the center or at its proximal end and of a fixed flat punch in its distal end

This type of configuration presents some inconvenience

First of all, the waste strung on The punch must be manually removed by the user, grabbing them with the free hand and pulling them to disassemble them, after which, they should be thrown into a bag or container

Second, the tip of the punch is not replaceable with what you should always use the same type of tip, whatever type of waste to collect (paper, cans of drinks, plastic containers, etc.); also, in the case that said tip is worn or broken with use, it must be discarded Then the whole device.

Finally, the tips of these devices Standard waste collection are smooth, bringing the skewered waste can easily slip from said tip and accidentally detach

Description of the invention

In order to overcome these inconveniences, it has designed the new device for collecting waste perfected object of the present memory technique.

Generally speaking, the present invention will be refers to a new device capable of functioning so that the stripped garbage is easily removed from it, when the user wishes, without having to remove them manually.

In addition, the tip of the punch is replaceable, with which, you can place the tip appropriate to the type of waste that will be picked up or simply change that tip when it is has deteriorated by use.

Finally, the replaceable tips of the novel collection device present, on its outer surface, certain roughnesses or undulations (depending on the type of waste to be collected) whose purpose is to prevent the skewered waste easily slip from the tip or punch and it accidentally detach.

The new device for collecting waste is essentially constituted by a cane whose lower or distal end has a punch for skewered the waste which is characterized because said punch is retractable and controllable from a trigger present inside a clamping lever located at the proximal end of the walking stick.

The cane is constituted by an external tube inside which there is a transmission bar; to the extreme on top of said bar a trigger is integrated into the handle clamping, positioned at the upper end of the tube; to the lower end of said bar is coupled in turn a protruding punch through the lower end of the tube.

The transmission bar is associated with the tube by a spring; said spring is positioned in space between: the surface of the transmission bar, the inner side of the tube, a top stop integral with said tube and, lastly, another lower stop integral with the bar of transmission.

The association between the transmission bar and the tube is such that when the spring is extended, the trigger is is in its lowest position inside the handle at the same time that the punch protrudes through the lower end of the tube, while that when the spring is contracted, the trigger is in its highest position inside the handle while the punch is retracted inside the lower end of the tube.

The handle has an element of trigger lock; said trigger lock element consists in a pivoting stop that when aligned with the trigger prevents its movement and, therefore, also that of the bar and associated punch, with which the punch cannot be retracted; in change, when the pivot stop is not aligned with the trigger, this can be moved so that the punch can be retracted towards the inside of the tube

The punch has on its surface a certain degree of roughness or undulations (depending on the type of waste that you want to collect) that prevent the waste or waste caught by said punch may Slip off it and accidentally detach.

In addition, the punch is replaceable and replaceable on the other, depending on the type of waste to be collected, or, in case the tip is worn out or break with use.

Description of the drawings

In order to illustrate how much so far we have exposed, is accompanied by the present specification and forming an integral part of it, of a set of drawings in those that have been represented in a simplified and schematic way, a practical embodiment example only explanatory but not limiting, of the characteristics of the novel invention.

Figures 1 and 2 show paths seen in section, with the punch extended and with the punch removed, respectively.

Figures 3 and 4 show paths seen in perspective, with the punch extended and with the punch removed, respectively.

Description of a practical example

In the figures that accompany this memory describes, by way of example, a case study of realization of the device object of it.

The new device for collecting waste consists of a cane whose lower end it has a retractable punch (1) controllable through a trigger (2) present inside a clamping lever (3).

Specifically, the cane is constituted by a external tube (4) inside which a bar of transmission (5).

The upper end of said bar transmission (5) has a seat (11) where a trigger is attached (2) integrated in the clamping lever (3), which is positioned at the upper end of the tube. At the lower end a second seat (10) is arranged in the transmission bar (5) in  which is coupled by thread or other equivalent means, the punch retractable (1).

The transmission bar (5) is associated with the tube (4) by means of a spring (6). Said spring (6) is positioned in the space between the surface of the bar (5) of transmission, the inner side of the tube (4), an upper stop (7) attached to said tube (4) and, finally, another lower stop (8) attached to the transmission bar (5).

The association between the transmission bar (5) and the tube (4) is such that, when the spring (6) is extended, the trigger (2) is in its lowest position inside the handle (3) while the retractable punch (1) protrudes by the lower end of the tube (4) while when the spring (6) is contracted, the trigger (2) is in its most position high inside the handle (3) while the punch (1) is retracted inside the lower end of the tube (4).

The handle (3) has an element lock (9) of the trigger (2). Said blocking element (9) It consists of a pivoting stop that when aligned with the trigger (2) prevents its movement leaving the retractable punch locked in its extended position, however, when the stop pivot (9) is not aligned with the trigger (2), this can be moved, so that the punch (1) can be retracted towards the inside of the tube (4).

Retractable punch (1) is attached to the bar transmission (5) by means of a thread present in the seat (10) and its surface is preferably rough.

They will be independent of the purpose of this invention the materials used in the manufacture of different elements that compose it, as well as the forms, dimensions and accessories that may present, and may be replaced by other technically equivalent ones, provided that no affect the essentiality of it or depart from the scope defined in the claims section.

Established the expressed concept, it is written to then the note of claims, thus synthesizing the news that you want to claim.
