Abstract
The invention relates to a cover (1) for a waste container (3), having an opening (5) that is formed in the cover (1). Waste (11) can be transferred into the waste container (3) via a sliding surface (9) of a slide (7), the surface being associated with the opening (5). At least one metal detector (13, 13a, 13b, 13c) is associated with the cover (1) such that metal components (15) of the waste (11) can be detected before transferring the waste (11) into the waste container (3).
Claims17
Cover for a waste container comprising:
- an opening formed in the cover;
- at least one sliding surface associated with the opening through which waste is transferred into the waste container;
- a slide is arranged such that an upper portion of the sliding surface projects above a surface of the cover;
- and
- at least one metal detector is assigned to the cover such that metal components of the waste are detectable and/or catchable prior to a transfer of the waste into the waste container.

Cover for a waste container comprising:
- an opening formed in the cover;
- at least one sliding surface associated with the opening through which waste is transferred into the waste container;
- a slide is arranged such that an upper portion of the sliding surface projects above a surface of the cover;
- at least one metal detector is arranged below the sliding surface of the slide such that metal components of the waste are detectable prior to a transfer of the waste into the waste container;
- and
- at least one active catching means is arranged such that, due to a signal of the at least one metal detector the active catching means is transferrable into a falling area of said metallic components.

Cover for a waste container comprising:
- an opening formed in the cover;
- a slide with a sliding surface associated with the opening through which waste is transferred into the waste container, wherein the slide is arranged such that an upper portion of the sliding surface projects above a surface of the cover;
- at least one metal detector is arranged below the sliding surface of the slide and a single metal detector is mounted below the sliding surface and in the region of a front edge of the sliding surface such that metal components of the waste are detectable prior to a transfer of the waste into the waste container;
- at least one active catching means is arranged such that, due to a signal of the at least one metal detector the active catching means is transferrable into a falling area of said metallic components;
- and
- at least one passive catching means in the form of a permanent magnets are attached to the cover underneath the sliding surface so that metallic and magnetizable components of the waste are catchable on the sliding surface before the transfer of the waste into the waste container.
