Abstract (en)

Filling-lock-chamber (6) for the individualized introduction of domestic refuse. It comprises an outer shell (10) which is able to close off a filling opening (8) and an inner shell (11) which is able to close off a discharge opening (9). These components are accommodated in a housing (7) which, by way of example, is placed above a storage unit (4). According to the invention, the inner shell can be coupled to the outer shell, in such a manner that the inner shell is connected to the outer shell starting from the closed position of the latter. When the outer shell is opened, the inner shell will continue to close off the filling opening while simultaneously opening the discharge opening. When the outer shell is completely open, the inner shell is uncoupled therefrom and moves back in the sense of closing off the discharge opening. The refuse can then be introduced and, during the closure of the outer shell, the latter is coupled to the inner flap again. <IMAGE>
