AI Technical Summary
Conventional waste bin enclosures require manual opening and closing of rigid locking elements for access and removal, increasing operational steps and time for waste disposal personnel.
A flexible or movably yielding closing device is designed on the disposal side of the waste container, allowing it to be pulled out and pushed back without manual opening or closing of a rigid element, using elastic or movable elements like strips or brush elements.
Simplifies waste container handling, reduces additional steps, and accelerates disposal processes while maintaining a functional closure, suitable for autonomous disposal at property boundaries.

Abstract
Description
[0001] The invention relates to a waste system with at least one waste container arranged in a receiving device with two opposing sides – a second side allows access for filling the waste container, and a first side opposite the second side allows the waste collection service to remove the waste container, particularly in the form of a bin enclosure. The essential idea of the invention is to design the disposal side of the receiving device not with a conventional rigid closing element such as a door, flap, or rigid cover, but with a flexible or movably yielding closing device.
[0002] With conventional waste bin enclosures, access to the waste container on the disposal side often requires opening a rigid element and closing it again after emptying. This results in additional manual steps and increases the time required for waste disposal personnel. The invention solves this problem by allowing the waste container to be pulled out of the enclosure from the disposal side without the need for separate manual opening and closing of a rigid locking element, and then pushed back into place after emptying.
[0003] The closing mechanism is designed to yield or move when the waste container is moved and then return to a closed position. This ensures that the receiving device on the disposal side remains at least partially closed without the need for a conventional door or flap mechanism.
[0004] The flexible or movably yielding closure device can consist of several compliant elements. These can be designed, for example, as elastic tabs, strips, lamellae, brush elements, or other comparable flexible or movably mounted elements. Crucially, they allow the removal and replacement of the waste container without requiring the separate opening and closing of a rigid closure. In a preferred embodiment, the waste container can be filled from a household side opposite the disposal side. This results in a functional separation between filling by the person filling the container and removal by the waste disposal personnel. The invention is particularly suitable for systems located at property boundaries or directly on the street side, so that the disposal process can be carried out autonomously from the outside, while filling takes place from the property side.
[0005] The technical advantage of the invention lies in the simplified handling of the waste container, the reduction of additional operating steps, and the acceleration of the disposal process. At the same time, the disposal side of the receiving device remains functionally closed. The core of the invention thus lies in the design of the disposal side by means of a flexible or movably yielding closing device instead of a rigid, manually operated locking element. Waste system
[0006] The invention relates to a waste system with at least one waste container in a receiving device, in particular a receiving device for one or more waste containers that can be set up or installed at a property boundary, on a sidewalk or in an access area.
[0007] The invention relates in particular to the design of a disposal side of the receiving device, via which the waste container can be removed by disposal personnel without additional handling and put back in place after emptying.
[0008] Waste bin enclosures, waste container housings, and receiving devices are known from the prior art, in which one or more waste containers are accommodated. Such systems have rigid closing elements, in particular doors, flaps, gate leaves, or comparable rigid closing elements, which must be manually opened to remove or replace a waste container and then closed again.
[0009] Furthermore, systems are known in which a waste container is accessible from different sides. However, in known designs, the removal of the waste container by the waste disposal personnel regularly involves additional operating steps if a rigid locking element is provided on the disposal side.
[0010] The invention is based on the objective of providing a waste system in which a waste container can be removed from a receiving device without barriers and placed back in place after emptying, without requiring a separate manual opening and closing of a rigid locking element.
[0011] The problem is solved by providing a flexible or movably yielding closing device 5 on a disposal side 2 of the receiving device 1. This device is designed such that the waste container 4 can be moved out of the receiving device 1 from the disposal side 2 without manually opening and closing a rigid closing element, and can be moved back into the receiving device 1 after emptying. A flexible or movably yielding closing device is understood to mean any closure that yields or moves away when the waste container 4 is moved out or back in. Separate manual opening and closing of a rigid closing element is therefore not required.
[0012] The essential inventive concept is to design the disposal side 2 of the receiving device 1 not with a rigid closing element, but with a flexible or movably yielding closing device 5. This allows the waste container 4 to be pulled out directly from the disposal side 2 and pushed back in after emptying, without having to manually open and then close a rigid closing element beforehand.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the waste container 4 is arranged in a receiving device 1 with two opposite sides - a second side 3 allows access for filling a waste container 4, and a first side 2 opposite the second side 3 allows the waste container 4 to be removed by the waste transport service.
[0014] The flexible or movable closing device 5 can have several flexible or movable elements. Fig. 1 These can be designed in particular as elastic strips, lamellae, brush elements, bristle elements or movable elements formed from such.
[0015] Preferably, the flexible or movable closing device 5 is arranged on the disposal side 2 of the receiving device 1. Fig. 1 The receiving device 1 has side walls 6 on which the closing device 5 is held or arranged at least section by section. Fig. 1
[0016] The flexible or movable closing device 5 can yield elastically or mechanically when the waste container 4 is moved and then automatically return to a closing position. Fig. 2
[0017] Alternatively, the flexible or movably yielding closing device 5 can be designed by movable elements which, upon contact with the waste container 4, automatically move into a release position and automatically return to a closing position after the waste container 4 has passed through. Fig. 2.
[0018] Fig. Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a receiving device 1 in the form of a waste container enclosure from the disposal side 2. The waste container 4 is located in the receiving device 1. The flexible or movable closing device 5 is arranged at the disposal side 2. All essential reference symbols are recognizable in this illustration, in particular the receiving device 1, the disposal side 2, the household side 3, the waste container 4, the flexible or movable closing device 5, and the side walls 6.
[0019] Fig. Figure 2 shows the receiving device 1 with the waste container 4 partially moved out of the receiving device 1. It is shown how the flexible or movably yielding closing device 5 yields when the waste container 4 is pulled out, thereby enabling the movement of the waste container 4 out of the receiving device 1. Fig. 2
[0020] Fig. Figure 3 shows the receiving device 1 when the waste container 4 is pushed back into the receiving device 1. It shows how the flexible or movable closing device 5 gives way inwards, thereby enabling the waste container 4 to be reinserted into the receiving device 1.
