<p>The invention relates to a device for recycling empty containers, in particular plastic bottles and metal cans, comprising a housing (1), which accommodates apparatuses for handling the inserted empty containers, and comprising an insertion chute (3), which is accessible from outside and which receives the empty containers as bulk goods and which has a bottom (8) pointing downward in the insertion direction (19), wherein means are provided that prevent or hinder the insertion of objects that are too large into the device. The aim of the invention is to provide a generic device by means of which empty goods can be inserted into the insertion chute (3) as bulk goods in a nearly unimpeded manner, wherein at the same time objects that are too large are prevented from entering the device. Said aim is achieved in that the bottom (8) of the insertion chute (3) comprises a plurality of grooves (9) arranged next to each other and extending in the insertion direction (19), wherein said grooves each open into a respective passage opening (10) leading into the device, the cross-section of the passage openings being dimensioned in such a way that empty containers (18) oriented in the insertion direction (19) by the grooves (9) can pass without force. The device comprises an elevator (15).</p> |
