Abstract (en)

A motor vehicle for collecting rubbish comprises a loading hopper (3) communicating with a holding compartment (2a) and having an opening (4) at the upper part thereof which is accessible through a loading inlet (5); loading means (6) movable astride the loading inlet (5) between a position at which said means grasps a skip (C) externally of the holding compartment (2a) and a position at which it transfers the rubbish contained in a skip (C) into the hopper (3). A soundproofing device (8) operates on the opening (4) to mitigate the emission of noise during rubbish transfer into the loading hopper (3). This soundproofing device (8) comprises a lid (9) for said opening (4), said lid (9) being movable away from the loading inlet (5) to enable access of the skip (C) to the hopper (3); and a cap (10) rotatably associated with the lid (9) to cover the skip (C) at least partly during rubbish transfer into the holding compartment (2a).
