2. Description of the Related Art Recently, of garbage discharged from homes,
Based on the fact that “container and packaging waste” accounts for about 60%, from the viewpoint of recycling this “container and packaging waste” into resources, the Law on the Promotion of Separate Collection and Recycling of Containers and Packaging (hereinafter referred to as “Recycling”) , The Containers and Packaging Recycling Law) has been implemented.

[0003] The Containers and Packaging Recycling Law is based on the idea that everyone plays a role of recycling in their respective roles.
As shown in FIG. 10, a specific company 1 that sells and uses plastic containers and sells and uses plastic packaging, a consumer 2 that purchases contents including containers and packaging from the specific company 1, Roles are set for each of the municipalities 3 such as municipalities in which 2 resides.

That is, according to the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law, the specific business operator 1 has an obligation to fulfill re-commercialization (recycling), and the consumer 2 has a role of separating and discharging used plastic such as containers and packaging. In addition, the local government 3 plays a role in separating and collecting used plastics separated and discharged.

[0005] However, FIG. 1 shows a case where the specific business 1 outsources the obligation of re-commercialization to a designated corporation (Japan Containers and Packaging Recycling Association) 4. That is,
The specified company 1 has concluded a contract to fulfill the obligation to recycle commodities with the designated corporation 4. Accordingly, the local government 3 has concluded a contract with the designated corporation 4 for the collection of products conforming to the classification standards. On the other hand, the designated corporation 4 has concluded a recycling contract with the recycling (recycling) company 5. In addition, the re-commercialization company 5 receives the classification standard conforming products from the local government 3, and delivers the re-commercialized products manufactured from the classification standard conforming products to the re-commercialized product using business company 6. The re-commercialized product utilization company 6 uses the delivered re-commercialized product and completes the recycling.

Note that the form shown in FIG. 10 is merely an example, and there is also a form in which the specific business operator 1 collects the separation standard conforming materials from the local government 3 and recycles it by himself or by entrustment. There is also a form in which the user 1 collects used plastic from a dealer and recycles it by himself or by entrustment.

Further, the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law stipulates not only used plastics (plastic containers and packaging) but also used glass containers, used PET bottles, and used paper containers and packaging. Descriptions other than those described above are omitted.

[0008] Among the above-mentioned roles, particularly,
The role of the local government 3 will be described with reference to FIG. The municipal government 3 collects the used plastic separated and discharged to the garbage station by the consumer 2 with a garbage truck 7, removes foreign substances (unsuitable materials 9) from the collected plastic garbage 8, and recycles the remaining containers and packaging. A used plastic 10 as an object is compressed and fastened via a compression / fastening device 11 and processed into a sorting standard conforming product 12.
In addition, the sorting standard conforming material 12 is delivered to the re-commercialization company 5.

[0009] In particular, the classification standard conforming material 12 is defined as "compressed" (hereinafter, referred to as a bale product 12) according to the quality guideline for collection from municipalities in 2000. In addition, "compression" does not mean that the product is compressed as a single product, but is compressed by a general compression and lashing device (baler or the like) 11 to maintain the form by bundling or packaging, and to prevent scattering of small containers. Means being planned.

In other words, the local government 3 is required to install a compression-fastening device 11 in order to process a used plastic 10 as a container / package recycling object into a bale product 12.

Further, the local government 3a pays the service fee for the compression and securing processing by the compression and securing device 20 to the management center MC based on a predetermined contract. Thereafter, as described above, the local government 3a hands over the bale product 12 stored in the bale product storage area 36 to the recycling company 5 and completes the role.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, when the used plastic 10 is compressed and fastened, the vehicle 24 is brought to the self-propelled compression-fastening device 20 so that it can be visited.
There is no need to install a compression lashing device. Therefore, even when the amount of the used plastic 10 is small, it is possible to suppress the equipment cost per processing amount.

In the compression molding machine 26, the inlet 41a for the used plastic 10 is arranged in the upper part of the chamber 40, and the outlet 42a for discharging the bale product 12 is arranged on the rear side of the vehicle. At times, the charging and discharging of the used plastic 10 can be performed efficiently.

Further, a plurality of storage locations (eg,
The compression and securing process can be performed by circulating through another storage location in the same local government 3a, a storage location of another local government 3a ', or a storage location of another consignor (specific business operator 1). , Efficient operation of the compression and securing device 20
Can be dispatched.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and can be variously modified in the implementation stage without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, the used plastic 10 is an object of the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law, but may be an object of only plastic bottles (color-coded as necessary). In this case, at the time of the sorting process in step ST3, for example, a PET bottle is detected by an infrared sensor, and the bottle is sorted as a container / package recycling target.

The bale product 12 complies with the sorting standard of the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law, and according to the above-mentioned collection quality guidelines, W1000 × D1000 × H1000.
mm is recommended, but is not limited thereto. For example, W1
The size may be 200 × D800 × H1000 mm, or similarly, another size close to the recommended size.

Although the tape 46 is used to secure the used plastic in the vertical direction, the present invention is not limited to this. The tape 46 may be secured in the horizontal direction, or may be secured in both the vertical and horizontal directions (cross binding).
May be. Although the case where two tapes 46 are used has been described for convenience of illustration, the present invention is not limited to this, and an arbitrary number of about 3 to 6 tapes can be used. Further, instead of the plastic tape 46, a metal wire may be used.

Further, the securing process using the tape 46 (or wire) is not limited to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, and it goes without saying that any embodiment can be applied. For example, as the compression molding machine 26, one or more slits (elongated openings) may be formed on the press ram (e.g., the side surfaces facing each other (= the front surface 40f and the side surfaces different from the distribution gate 42) and / or the upper and lower surfaces of the chamber 40. The rod (45) is deformed into a configuration provided so as to face each other along the longitudinal direction.

At this time, as the securing processing, when the used plastic 10 is compressed, both ends of the tape 46 are respectively discharged from both ends of the slit on one surface to the discharge gate 42.
The tape 46 is inserted along the inner wall surface and the inner wall surface of the compression plate 43, and both ends of the inserted tape 46 are taken out from both ends of the slit on the opposing surface, and the used plastic 10 in the compressed state is fastened. This is applicable.

Further, the securing process when the tapes 46 are tied by hand has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the securing process may be performed automatically by tying the tapes with a binding machine.

When the vehicle 24 is a truck, the compression molding machine 26 is loaded with the discharge port facing the rear of the vehicle 24. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and when the vehicle is a trailer tractor, the loading platform 21 and the towing vehicle are mounted. May be separated from each other, so that they may be stacked in such a manner that the outlet is directed forward of the vehicle 24.

Further, in the case of a trailer tractor, at least the loading platform 21 on which the compression molding machine 26 is loaded may be delivered to the local government 3a, and if necessary, the towing vehicle may be returned to the management center MC. Also, if necessary, the towing vehicle is connected to another loading platform 2 on which another compression molding machine 26 is loaded.
One may be dispatched to another storage location to retrieve 1.
In addition, the embodiments may be implemented in appropriate combinations as much as possible, in which case the combined effects can be obtained.
Further, the above embodiments include inventions at various stages, and various inventions can be extracted by appropriate combinations of a plurality of disclosed configuration requirements. For example, if an invention is extracted by omitting some constituent elements from all the constituent elements described in the embodiment, when implementing the extracted invention, the omitted part is appropriately supplemented by a well-known common technique. It is something to be done.

Specifically, for example, the generator 25 and / or the crane unit 22 may be omitted. In this case, an external power supply (such as an extension cord or an external power supply) can be applied to supplement the generator 25. Further, a belt conveyor can be applied to supplement the crane unit 22.
In addition, the present invention can be implemented with various modifications without departing from the scope of the invention.
