Abstract: A container for waste collection includes: a containment body having a collection compartment and a top opening for delivering waste into the collection compartment; a door movably connected to the containment body for selectively opening or closing the opening; a mask interposed between the collection compartment and the door when the door is in a first operating condition in which it closes the opening, the mask having at least one mouth for delivering waste into the collection compartment. The mask is permanently fixed to the containment body so that it defines a slit between an upper edge of the mask and the containment body, the slit being adapted to permit the passage of the door, wherein the door is constrained to the containment body by an actuator that allows the door to alternately switch from a first operating condition in which it closes the load opening to a second operating condition in which it opens the load opening.

Abstract: An automatic container loading device connected to an appropriate truck comprises a first telescopic arm connected to the chassis of the truck and able to rotate, both on a horizontal and on a vertical plane, a second telescopic arm centrally connected to the free end of the first arm and able to make a complete rotation on its vertical axis and comprising a third arm and a fourth arm, also able to make a complete rotation. The third and fourth arms support a mechanism for gripping containers of all shapes and sizes form any position whatsoever, even at a considerable distance from the truck and on a different level, placing them automatically in the right position for being lifted and emptied into the body of the truck.
