(54) Collection container of a refuse collection vehicle


(57) The present invention relates to a collection container (1) of a refuse collection vehicle. The collection container (1) comprises at least three chambers (2, 3, 4) with as many tailgates (7, 8, 9) for collecting and compacting refuse. The collection container (1) also comprises bin lift (17), with which refuse bins (18) are arranged to be tipped over the hoppers (10, 11, 12) of the tailgates (7, 8, 9), whereby the bin lift (17) is connected to the collection container (1) through a substantially U-shaped carrier arm (19). The tailgates (7, 8, 9) are arranged to be turnable around a rotation axis (14, 15, 16) on an edge of a loading and dumping opening so as to free the chambers (2, 3, 4) for emptying the refuse collected therein. So as to empty the chambers (2, 3, 4) of the collection container (1), two outer tailgates (7, 8) are turnable around a substantially vertical axis (14, 15), while a tailgate (9) between the outer tailgates (7, 9) is turnable around a horizontal axis (16).
