Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a refuse collection vehicle that collects and transports refuse. [Background technology]

[0002] Refuse collection trucks 200 are known as devices for collecting general waste from homes and food waste from restaurants and the like. The garbage collection vehicle 200 is a vehicle 10 equipped with a garbage collection device 201 as shown in FIG. 6(a). The dust collection device 201 is made up of a dust collection box 202 that stores dust, and a dust drop box 203. The dust collection box 202 is a box with a dust discharge port 208 opening at the rear end side of the vehicle 10 as shown in Figure 6(b), and the other dust drop box 203 is positioned to cover the opening portion (dust discharge port 208) of the dust collection box 202. In other words, the dust drop box 203 covers the dust collection box 202 as shown in Figures 6(a) and (b), and the dust collection box 202 and the dust drop box 203 form a substantially sealed dust storage space 205. The garbage dump box 203 has a garbage dump space 206 into which garbage is dumped as shown in Figure 7, and a loading device 207 that pushes the garbage dumped into the garbage dump space 206 into a garbage storage space 205 inside the garbage collection box 202.

[0003] The loading devices 207, 208 currently in use are roughly classified into "rotary plate type loading devices" and "press type loading devices." The rotary plate type loading device 207 has a structure in which a swinging push plate 210 and a rotary plate 213 are combined as shown in FIG. That is, in the rotary plate type loading device 207, a rotary plate 213 is provided in the garbage input space 206. The rotary plate 213 rotates around a horizontal shaft 215. The pusher plate 210 is provided on the upper part of the rotating plate 213, on the rear end side of the trash bin 203. The pusher plate 210 swings in the front-to-rear direction of the vehicle 10 around a horizontal shaft 218.

[0004] In the rotary plate type loading device 207, by rotating the rotary plate 213 as shown in Fig. 7(a), the trash 220 thrown into the trash throwing space 206 is scooped up to a certain height as shown in Fig. 7(b). Then, the pusher plate 210 is swung as shown in Fig. 7(c), the tip of the pusher plate 210 wipes the surface of the rotary plate 213, and the trash 220 is pushed into the trash storage space 205 in the trash storage box 202.

[0005] On the other hand, the "press-type loading device" has a structure in which a slide plate 209 and a push-in plate 251 are combined, as shown in FIG. That is, the press-type loading device 250 has a slide plate 209 that moves up and down in an oblique direction. A push plate 251 is provided at the tip of the slide plate 209. The push plate 251 swings around a horizontal shaft 204.

[0006] In the press-type loading device 250, the pusher plate 251 is opened at an angle of 180 degrees or more relative to the slide plate 209 as shown in Figure 8(a), and in this state the slide plate 209 is lowered and the pusher plate 251 is inserted into the garbage input space 206. In this state, the pusher plate 251 is rotated clockwise as shown in Figure 12(b) to scoop up the garbage 7. Thereafter, the slide plate 209 is raised as shown in Figure 8(c), and the pusher plate 251 with the garbage 7 scooped up is pulled up, and the garbage 7 is pushed into the garbage storage space 205.

[0007] In any case, the trash drop box 203 is attached to the trash collection box 202 via a hinge 230, as shown in Figure 6. A cylinder 231 is attached between the trash drop box 203 and the trash collection box 202. As shown in FIG. 6, the garbage collection vehicle 200 can open and close the garbage discharge port 208 at one end of the garbage storage box 202 by extending and retracting the cylinder 231 to swing the garbage insertion box 203 .

[0008] In the prior art garbage collection vehicle 200, the cylinder 231 is connected to the garbage bin 203 via a bracket (connecting member) 300 as shown in FIG. Bracket 300 has a mounting seat 301 and a clevis portion 302. Clevis portion 302 on the bracket 300 side is, for example, a double clevis, and has through holes 306 formed in a pair of support plates 305a and 305b, respectively. The cylinder 231 has a single clevis 307 at the tip of the rod 232. The single clevis 307 has a through hole. Then, the single clevis 307 of the cylinder 231 is inserted between the pair of clevises 305a and 305b on the bracket 300 side, and the pin 310 is inserted through the through-hole 306 on the bracket 300 side and the through-hole on the cylinder 231 side, and the rod 232 of the cylinder 231 is connected to the bracket 300.

[0009] In the prior art, the bracket 300 was simply welded to the side of the trash bin 203. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0010] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-223994 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0011] The attachment portion of the bracket 300 is pressed by the cylinder 231, causing the trash bin 203 to rotate about the hinge 230, and the trash discharge port 208 at the end of the trash collection box 202 is opened. At this time, clevis portion 302 of bracket 300 is pressed with a considerable force. Because clevis portion 302 is fixed in a cantilevered manner to mounting seat 301, when clevis portion 302 is pressed by cylinder 231, a moment is generated in mounting seat 301, and a force is applied to one part of mounting seat 301 that presses it toward the side wall member, while a force is applied to another part of mounting seat 301 in a direction that causes it to lift up from the side wall member. As a result, mounting seat 301 is elastically deformed, raising concerns about stress concentration or repeated stress being applied to the welded portion.

[0012] As described above, in the prior art garbage collection vehicle, the bracket 300 for mounting the cylinder 231 was simply welded to the side of the garbage bin 203, as mentioned above, which raised concerns about the strength of the mounting. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and has as its object to provide a garbage collection vehicle in which the actuator that swings the garbage bin is attached with high strength.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0025] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below. In the following description, the relationship between front and rear corresponds to the front and rear of the vehicle, with the driver's seat being in the front and the trash bin 13 being in the rear. The relationship between up and down is based on the position in which each component is installed in the correct position and the trash outlet 15 of the trash collection box 12 is closed by the trash bin 13. The basic configuration of the refuse collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment is no different from that of the prior art. That is, the refuse collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment is a vehicle 10 equipped with a refuse collection device 11, as shown in Figure 1. The refuse collection device 11, like the prior art, is composed of a refuse collection box 12 for storing refuse and a refuse drop box 13. 1 and 6(b), the trash collection box 12 is a box that is open at the rear end of the vehicle 10. That is, the trash collection box 12 has a large trash discharge opening 15 at the rear end, and five sides except for the trash discharge opening 15 are covered with sturdy steel plates. In this embodiment, a trash storage space 16 is formed inside the trash collection box 12.

[0026] As shown in Figure 2, the garbage dump box 13 is attached to the rear end of the garbage storage box 12 by a hinge 8, and as with conventional technology, by driving the cylinder 20, it can be placed in a position where the garbage discharge port 15 is covered or in a position where the garbage discharge port 15 is open.

[0027] The garbage dump box 13 used in this embodiment is a rotary plate type loading device or a press type loading device. The structure and function of the rotary plate type loading device are the same as those of the prior art shown in Figure 7, and it has a swinging push plate 2, a rotary plate 3, and a garbage dump tank (garbage dump space) 206 built in. The structure and function of the press-type loading device are the same as those of the prior art shown in FIG.

[0028] The trash bin 13 is provided with side wall members 21 on the left and right sides. A bracket (connecting member) 25 is attached to the side wall members 21, and a rod 26 of the cylinder 20 is connected to the bracket 25. The structures of the side wall member 21 and the bracket 25 will be described below.

[0029] 3, the side wall member 21 of this embodiment has a wall main body 5 and a pressing member 32. The wall main body 5 further has a front plate member 30 and a back plate member 31. The front panel member 30 is a member that makes up most of the outer surface of the trash bin 13. When placed inside the trash bin 13, the rear edge 33 bulges slightly rearward. The bottom edge 35 of the front panel member 30 has notches 36a and 36b. The edge 37 on the trash collection box 12 side is an inclined edge. The top panel member 30 has a cutout 38 in its upper region. The edge of the cutout 38 is made up of a substantially vertical side 40, a steeply inclined side 41, and a gently inclined side 42. A corner 45 is provided between the steeply inclined side 41 and the gently inclined side 42. The corner 45 of the top panel member 30 is a concave corner that is recessed inward. The area between the edge 37 of the front panel member 30 on the side of the trash collection box 12 and the approximately vertical edge 40 of the cutout portion 38 forms a protruding portion 43 that protrudes upward based on the mounting position.

[0030] The back plate member 31 is a member that forms the inner wall of the trash bin 13, and is a metal plate that has approximately the same shape as the side surface of the trash bin 13. The area of ​​the back plate member 31 is larger than that of the front plate member 30. The back plate member 31 can cover the entire front plate member 30 and the area of ​​the cutout portion 38. The back panel member 31 is disposed on the back side of the front panel member 30. As described above, the back panel member 31 is larger than the front panel member 30 and covers the entire front panel member 30 and the area of ​​the cutout 38. Therefore, when the front panel member 30 and the back panel member 31 are integrated, the back of the cutout 38 of the front panel member 30 is covered by the back panel member 31. Therefore, the wall main body 5 formed by integrating the front panel member 30 and the back panel member 31 has a bottom 58 in the area corresponding to the cutout 38 of the front panel member 30, forming a concave shape, as shown in FIG. That is, the wall body 5 has a recess 6 on the surface.

[0031] The pressing member 32 is a plate having a bow-shaped front shape. That is, the pressing member 32 has an upper side component 46 and an inclined portion 47, and the inclined portion 47 extends obliquely relative to the upper side component 46, as shown in FIG. The lower side of the upper side component has an arc-shaped cutout portion 48 .

[0032] As shown in Fig. 5, bracket 25 has a mounting seat 50 and a clevis portion 51. Mounting seat 50 and clevis portion 51 are integrally welded together, but for ease of drawing, they are shown separately in Fig. 5. Fig. 5 illustrates the bracket 25 in the mounted position as the reference position.

[0033] The mounting seat 50 has a peripheral wall portion 68 provided on a part of the seat portion 52 . The surface of the mounting seat 50 from which the clevis portion 51 protrudes is the outer side 70 of the bracket (connecting member) 25. As shown in Figure 5(b), seat portion 52 is an irregularly shaped, roughly pentagonal plate. As shown in Figure 5, seat portion 52 has a steeply inclined side 53 and a gently inclined side 55 on the lower side based on the mounting posture. There is a corner 56 between steeply inclined side 53 and gently inclined side 55. Corner 56 of seat portion 52 is a convex corner that protrudes outward. The angle formed between the steeply inclined side 53 and the gently inclined side 55 of the seat portion 52 is equal to the angle formed between the steeply inclined side 41 and the gently inclined side 42 of the cutout portion 38 of the top panel member 30. The rear side 57 of the seat 52 is substantially vertical with respect to the attached posture. The upper side of the seat 52 is angled. The thickness of the seat portion 52 is thinner than the thickness of the top panel member 30 .

[0034] A peripheral wall 68 is provided on the lower side and rear side 57 of the seat 52. That is, the steeply inclined side 53, the gently inclined side 55 and the rear side 57 of the seat 52 are bordered by the peripheral wall 68.

[0035] The clevis portion 51 is a double-ridged clevis similar to that of the prior art, and a pair of support plates 60a, 60b on an attachment shaft 67 are each provided with a through-hole 61. The clevis portion 51 is welded to the seat portion 52 and is an inseparable unit.

[0036] Next, the relationship between the side wall member 21 and the bracket 25 will be described. As described above, the wall body 5 of the side wall member 21 is formed by integrating the front panel member 30 and the back panel member 31, and the area corresponding to the cutout portion 38 of the front panel member 30 is concave (recess 6). In this embodiment, bracket 25 is disposed in a recessed region (recess 6) corresponding to cutout 38. Specifically, as shown in Figure 2, bracket 25 is disposed at a position where corner 56 of the convex strip of seat portion 52 of bracket 25 engages with corner 45 of recess 6 of front panel member 30.

[0037] As a result, the steeply inclined side 53 of the bracket 25 abuts against the steeply inclined side 41 of the front panel member 30 , and the gently inclined side 55 of the bracket 25 abuts against the gently inclined side 42 of the front panel member 30 . As described above, the steeply sloping side 53, the gently sloping side 55, and the rear side 57 of the seat 52 are bordered by the peripheral wall 68, so the peripheral wall 68 of the bracket 25 comes into contact with the edge of the cutout 38 of the front panel member 30. Although the thickness of the seat 52 of the bracket 25 is thinner than the thickness of the front panel member 30, the presence of the peripheral wall 68 in the contact area with the front panel member 30 ensures a sufficient contact area between the seat 52 of the bracket 25 and the edge of the cutout 38 of the front panel member 30. The bottom surface of the seat portion 52 of the bracket 25 is in contact with the back plate member 31 .

[0038] In the refuse collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment, the bracket 25 is welded to the front plate member 30 and the back plate member 31. Specifically, the edge of the cutout portion 38 of the front plate member 30 is joined to the peripheral wall portion 68 of the bracket 25 by welding. The periphery of the seat portion 52 of the bracket 25 is also welded to the back plate member 31.

[0039] In the garbage collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment, as shown in Figures 2 and 4, a pressing member 32 is further arranged on the outside of the bracket 25, and a portion 71 of the bracket 25 (see Figures 2 and 4) is covered by the pressing member 32. That is, as shown in Figure 2, the pressing member 32 is bridged between the protruding portion 43 of the front panel member 30 and the vicinity of the rear edge 33 of the front panel member 30, and spans the upper region based on the mounting position of the cutout portion 38 of the front panel member 30. As shown in Figures 2 and 4, the arc-shaped cutout portion 48 of the pressing member 32 is located in a position surrounding the mounting axis 67 of the clevis portion 51 of the bracket 25, and the upper edge component 46 directly overlaps the upper region (part 71) of the mounting axis 67 on the outside 70 of the mounting seat 50 of the bracket 25. The mounting seat 50 of the bracket 25, the pressing member 32 and the notch 38 are welded together.

[0040] 1 and 2, the cylinder end side of the cylinder 20 is connected to the trash collection box 12 via a pin 65. Also, the rod 26 of the cylinder 20 is connected to a bracket 25 of the trash dump box 13. The connection structure between the rod 26 of the cylinder 20 and the bracket 25 is the same as that of the prior art, with a single clevis 27 on the rod 26 of the cylinder 20, and a pin inserted through a through hole 28 on the bracket 25 side and a through hole on the cylinder 20 side, connecting the rod 26 of the cylinder 20 to the bracket 25.

[0041] In the garbage collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment, the cylinder 20 is extended to push the garbage dump box 13, and the garbage dump box 13 is rotated around the hinge 8, thereby opening the garbage discharge port 15 of the garbage storage box 12. Here, by extending the cylinder 20, the bracket 25 is pressed strongly, and a moment is generated in the bracket 25. Therefore, a load in the upward direction is applied to the end of the cylinder 20, i.e., the area on the side of the pin 65 attached to the garbage collection box 12, with the mounting axis 67 of the clevis portion 51 of the bracket 25 as the boundary, and a load in the downward direction is applied to the area away from the pin 65 with the mounting axis 67 as the boundary. In contrast, in the garbage collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment, the holding member 32 overlaps the upper area based on the mounting posture of the bracket 25 where the load is applied in the lifting direction, and covers the area where the load is applied in the lifting direction. Therefore, displacement of the mounting seat 50 of the bracket 25 in the lifting direction is suppressed by the pressing member 32. This prevents stress concentration at the welded portion of the mounting seat 50 and prevents repeated application of stress.

[0042] Furthermore, in the refuse collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment, the mounting seat 50 of the bracket 25 is in contact with the surface of the back plate member 31, so displacement of the mounting seat 50 of the bracket 25 in the sinking direction is suppressed by the pressing member 32. Furthermore, in the garbage collection vehicle 1 of this embodiment, as shown in Figure 2, the convex corner 56 of the seat portion 52 of the bracket 25 engages with the concave corner 45 of the surface panel member 30, the steeply inclined edge 53 of the bracket 25 abuts against the steeply inclined edge 41 of the surface panel member 30, and the gently inclined edge 55 of the bracket 25 abuts against the gently inclined edge 42 of the surface panel member 30. Therefore, the load acting on the bracket 25 in the surface direction of the front panel member 30 is distributed over a wide area of ​​the front panel member 30, and the load acting on the bracket 25 in the surface direction can be borne by the entire side wall member 21.

[0043] In the embodiment described above, the cutout portion 38 is provided in the front panel member 30, and the bracket 25 is disposed in the cutout portion 38. However, an opening may be provided instead of the cutout portion 38, and the bracket 25 may be disposed in the opening. Alternatively, the bracket 25 may be fitted into the opening.

[0044] The recommended process for attaching the bracket 25 is to attach the back plate member 31 to the front plate member 30, then install the bracket 25 in the cutout portion 38 of the front plate member 30, and then place the retaining member 32 on the bracket 25. Another method is to join the front plate member 30 to the back plate member 31 and the pressing member 32, and slide the mounting seat 50 of the bracket 25 into the gap between the back plate member 31 and the pressing member 32. In the embodiment described above, the bottom of the cutout 38 is formed by overlapping the back panel 31 on the front panel 30, but a bottom is not necessarily required. Alternatively, a recess with a bottom may be formed in the front panel 30, and the bracket 25 may be placed in the recess. In short, it is sufficient that the wall main body 5 has at least one of an opening, a recess, and a cutout.

[0045] In the embodiment described above, the cylinder 20 for opening and closing the trash bin 13 is attached to the outside of the side wall member 21 , but the cylinder 20 may be provided inside the trash bin 13 . The garbage collection box 12 used in this embodiment has side wall members 21 on the left and right, and a cylinder 20 for opening and closing the garbage drop box 13 may be located in the area sandwiched between the left and right side wall members 21. In this case, for example, notches are formed in both the front plate member and the back plate member of the side wall member, and the bracket 25 is installed in the notches. In this state, the clevis portion 51 of the bracket 25 protrudes into the trash collection box 12. Then, the pressing member is placed on and in contact with the outer side 70 of the bracket 25, and a part 71 of the outer side 70 of the bracket 25 is covered with the pressing member.

[0046] In the embodiment described above, the cylinder 20, bracket 25, etc. are exposed to the outside and inside of the trash collection box 12, but the cylinder 20, bracket 25, etc. may be provided with a cover.

[0047] The pressing member 32 overlaps a portion 71 of the outer side 70 of the bracket 25, and only the portion 71 of the outer side 70 of the bracket 25 is covered by the pressing member 32, but the pressing member 32 may overlap a wider area. For example, with respect to the posture in which the bracket 25 is attached, the pressing member 32 may reach the vicinity of the mounting shaft 67. Furthermore, the pressing member 32 may overlap the entire area of ​​the mounting seat 50 except for the mounting shaft 67.
