20220355834 · 2022-11-10 ·

The present invention provides a system for automatic operation of a top hatch cover for a container, comprising a hatch cover, a cylinder mount, a main operating lever, a connecting link, and a hatch locking lever. The cylinder mount is configured for pivotally connecting a piston to the container. A lower portion of the main operating lever is connected to a cylinder rod of an air cylinder. A first extension of the connecting link is rotatably connected to an upper portion of the main operating lever and a second extension of the connecting link is coupled to the hatch cover. The main operating lever and the hatch locking lever are rotatably coupled to a main shaft mount, where the hatch locking lever is configured to pivot around the main shaft mount to move between a locked position and an unlocked position.

A closure device comprises a locking mechanism, which has a rotary latch and a pawl, and an electrical drive for opening the locking mechanism. The closure device has an actuating apparatus for actuating the electrical drive, such that the locking mechanism can be opened exclusively electrically. Thus, there is no mechanical system for enabling the locking mechanism to be opened exclusively in a mechanical manner. In the non-actuated state, the electrical drive is completely disconnected from the current-carrying electrical conductors. Thus, there is then no voltage on the drive, which must be used to open the locking mechanism. The actuating apparatus includes one or more electrical contacts that are closed to contact the electrical drive to a current source and put the electrical drive into operation such that an associated door or flap can be opened.
