Abstract
The invention relates to a hand press for pressing a package, the hand press having a housing, which has at least one first opening for the inserting the package and at least one second opening for the disposing of the package. Furthermore, the hand press has a pressing device, which is arranged essentially inside the housing and which has a first pressing surface, and an actuating device, which is connected via a rotary shaft with at least one lever, which is rotatably mounted with the pressing device.
Claims20
A hand press for pressing a packaging and configured to be mounted on a waste container, the hand press comprising:
- a housing, which has at least one first opening for inserting the packaging and at least one second opening for disposing of the packaging;
- a pressing device, which is arranged inside the housing and which has a first pressing surface;
- an actuating device, which is connected via a rotary shaft to at least one lever which is rotatably supported by the pressing device;
- and
- a flap device, which is arranged within the housing and which has a first part for closing the at least one first opening of the housing and a second part with a second pressing surface,
- wherein the flap device is configured to be fixed in at least two positions by the pressing device,
- wherein, in at least one starting position of the at least two positions, the flap device is configured to be positioned such that the packaging is held at least partially in the region of the at least one first opening by the first part,
- wherein, in at least one pressing position of the at least two positions, the flap device is configured to be positioned such that the at least one first opening is at least partially closed by the first part of the flap device, and the second pressing surface of the flap device forms a wedge-shaped pressing space with the first pressing surface of the pressing device,
- wherein the flap device is configured such that the packaging is brought into the housing during a transition from the at least one starting position into the at least one pressing position,
- wherein the flap device is configured such that in the pressing position the packaging is at least partially held by the first pressing surface and the second pressing surface,
- wherein the first pressing surface and the second pressing surface are configured to be pressed together in the at least one pressing position in a region of a tip of the wedge-shaped pressing space by the first pressing surface and the second pressing surface,
- wherein the flap device is configured such that transitioning from the at least one pressing position into the at least one starting position ejects the packaging from the housing through the at least one second opening,
- wherein the pressing device is configured to be moved during the transition from the at least one starting position into the at least one pressing position in such a way that an angle of the wedge-shaped pressing space is reduced and that the pressing device is guided in a predetermined radial curved path by means of at least one journal arranged on the pressing device, and
- wherein the flap device is rotatably mounted in a transition region between the first part and the second part.
