Definitions
- the present invention relates to container identification systems, and in particular to container identification systems on side loading refuse vehicles with gripper arms.
- Container identification systems for identifying waste containers have been used for some time in order to enable billing of garbage disposal fees depending on the weight or the frequency of emptying of a waste container equipped with a transponder.
- Container identification systems of this type serve to store the data transmitted by the transponder, ie, for example, an identification number that is assigned to the respective household that is to be charged with the corresponding garbage fees, in a data acquisition unit or data processing unit that is accommodated with the container identification system in the side-loading refuse vehicle , record and process.
- a transceiver assigned to the side-loading waste vehicle activates the transponder on the waste container.
- the transponder emits an information code stored in the transponder, which the transceiver detects, stores and / or processes on the side of the refuse vehicle.
- the garbage weight can be stored together with the identification number identifying the household or processed further.
- the garbage container is usually identified in such a way that a defined spatial assignment of transponder antenna is required during the emptying process.
- the position of the transponder in relation to the antenna must be selected so that a reading or recognition area between the antenna and the transponder that is as secure as possible is achieved, ie the data stored in the transponder can be detected by means of the antenna or the antenna arrangement of the container identification system.
- the waste container may only be attached to the gripping arm of the side loading refuse vehicle in a defined position via a so-called comb strip or via holding arms for container pins.
- the refuse container can assume any position with respect to an antenna attached to the side-loading refuse vehicle due to a rotation about its vertical axis, reliable and reliable identification of the refuse containers with a transponder attached to the refuse container is necessary, taking into account the free assignment the transponder to the gripper arm is not possible.
- the electromagnetic fields of the antennas do not have a spherical radiation behavior, so that the known attachment of the antennas in the vicinity of the refuse containers does not enable them to be reliably identified.
- the reading or detection areas of the container identification systems with the currently possible transmission powers are not sufficient to enable the identification of the transponders attached to the refuse containers, which can be detected with gripping arms in any position.
- the present invention is based on the object of creating an improved container identification system for a side-loading refuse vehicle. fen to ensure reliable and secure identification of a trash container equipped with a transponder regardless of its location in the gripper arm of a side-loading refuse vehicle.
- the object of the present invention is achieved by a container identification system for a side loading refuse vehicle according to claim 1.
- the invention is based on the finding that by means of an arrangement of a plurality of antennas, which form a closed reading or detection area for the transponder attached to the refuse container, a refuse container equipped with a transponder, regardless of its position in the gripping arm of a side-loading refuse vehicle, is secured by means of the antenna arrangement and can be reliably identified.
- the container identification system for a side-loading refuse vehicle with a gripper arm, at the filling opening in the vehicle body, i. at the top reversal point, several antennas are arranged in such a way that a closed reading or detection area is created for all relevant transponder-antenna assignments.
- the antennas are synchronized on the hardware or software side in such a way that there is no mutual interference between the antennas.
- the number of electronic reading devices required per vehicle is reduced by the fact that the antennas are controlled in multiplex mode and the multiplex interface is provided at a position at which the signals to be processed are present in digital form in the reading device.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of a container identification system for a side loader truck.
- a transceiver 2 is connected via leads 4 to a plurality of antennas of an antenna arrangement 6.
- the antenna arrangement 6 has four individual antennas, however any number of individual antennas can be used to form a closed reading or detection area around a fill opening 8 in a body of a side-loading refuse vehicle (not shown).
- a garbage container 10 equipped with a transponder is located above the filling opening 8 in the structure of the side loading garbage vehicle, i.e. at the upper reversal point, the waste container 10 being moved by means of a pick-up and tilting device (not shown) of the side loading refuse vehicle. As indicated by the circular line 12 in FIG. 1, the refuse container 10 can be picked up in any vertical position with respect to the receiving and tilting device and can be arranged over the filling opening.
- the garbage container 10 is brought into the body of the side-loading garbage vehicle for emptying it by means of the pick-up and tilting device via the filling opening 8. If the transponder attached to the waste container 10 is in the area of the filling opening 8, the transceiver 2 detects those in the transponder by means of the antenna arrangement 6 stored data and processes them further. Since the antenna arrangement 6 is constructed from a plurality of individual antennas, which are arranged around the filler opening 8 in the structure of the side-loading refuse collection vehicle, the antenna arrangement defines a closed reading or detection area which extends around the refuse container 10 with the transponder when the same located in the area of the filling opening 8 in the body of the side loading refuse vehicle. This ensures that regardless of the position of the garbage container 10 in the gripper arm of the side loading garbage vehicle, an assignment of antenna-transponder is always guaranteed.
- the individual antennas of the antenna arrangement 6 are preferably synchronized on the hardware or software side in such a way that there is no mutual interference and interference of the individual antennas of the antenna arrangement 6. Because the antennas do not interact with each other, unwanted interference phenomena are prevented. Furthermore, the antenna arrangement 6 can be controlled in multiplex mode, as a result of which the number of electronic reading devices required for each side loader truck is reduced, and for example only one transceiver 2 is required in each case. In addition, the multiplex interface is located at a position at which the signals to be processed are present in digital form in the reader.
- the costs for the construction and arrangement of the container identification system according to the invention are significantly reduced compared to equipment with one reading device per individual antenna.
