A method and an overturning device for frontal and lateral emptying of containers

The present invention belongs to the field of methods and devices for emptying of containers, more precisely to the field of devices for frontal and lateral emptying of containers. The essence of the method of container emptying and the overturning device for frontal and lateral emptying is that overturning of the container on the front side is enabled by a lifting element, which is rotatably mounted into the base, so that the container can be rotated around its transverse axis, and it is lifted and lowered with a help of a hydraulic assembly, which includes hydraulic cylinders and a hydraulic aggregate with installation. For lateral emptying of a container the device according to embodiment I is used, wherein the device is installed on the lifting element of the basic device and allows rotation of the container around its longitudinal axis. The device is suitable for standard containers used in truck, rail and ship transport and allows levelling as well as adaptation to the terrain.
