Abstract
This invention relates to an underground waste collection system, which has a pedestrian platform that also functions as the lid (1) of a tank (3) into which a container (4) can be inserted and wherein the waste is deposited through a deposition top bin (2), which is external and attacked to the lid (1). The lid opens by means of gas cylinders (7) and, in order that the impact of the opening limit of the lid (1) is as small as possible and does not cause damage to the gas cylinders (7), the lid (1) comprises two brackets, perpendicularly to its axis of rotation, which connect to gas cylinders (7), and wherein at least one of them is a sliding bracket (6).
Claims1
Underground waste collection system, comprising a tank (3), the said tank (3) having a lid (1), and into which a container (4) can be inserted wherein the waste is deposited through a deposition top bin (2), the said deposition top bin (2) being attached to the lid (1) on the outside of the tank (3) and the said lid (1) being moved by means of gas cylinders (7), wherein the lid (1) comprises two brackets (5) (6) affixed to the lid and connected to the gas cylinders (7), one of the brackets (5) (6) being a sliding bracket (6) and these brackets (5) (6) being perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the lid (1), parallel to each other, and at maximum extensions of the cylinders, tops of the cylinders being at unlevelled heights relative to each other, wherein the lid (1) starts to open through both gas cylinders (7), connected to the sliding bracket (6) and the common bracket (5), and ends upon actuation of the gas cylinder (7) connected to the common bracket (5).
