ABSTRACT:
In order to make it possible to empty in particular, large containers with a crew of just one person, an emptying device with a tilting/lifting device 1 and a control unit 4 is described to which a trigger switch 2 is connected which is actuated by the container to be emptied as it approaches the lifting/tilting device and which triggers the raising phase of the lifting/tilting process automatically. When a preset raised level of the lifting/tilting device is reached the control unit interrupts the raising phase. In addition, a first manual actuator 8 to trigger the automatic emptying process, which actuator has an effect upon the control unit 4 only after the interruption of the lifting process, is connected to the control unit. The control unit 4 contains a programmable device 5 into which the preset raised level can be inputted. The programmable device 5 also assumes the function of monitoring the preset time spans, such as the time span between the actuation of the trigger switch 2 and the actuation of the acknowledgement signal switch 3. After the container is emptied, putting the container back down completely is accomplished by means of a second manual actuator 9.
