ABSTRACT:
A modular chute assembly section has a tubular shape with an axial bore. When joined together, one atop the other, a multistory gravity conveyor chute is formed for deposit of waste through an access door at any floor that will fall to a basement receiver. In the basement, a receptacle mover has a number of different receptacles thereon, one for each type of separated waste. Controls at each access door enable the waste depositor to selectively move a waste receptacle beneath the chute to correspond to the type of waste being deposited. Controls for locking the access door, selecting a particular waste receptacle, sensing when the door is closed, and signalling apparatus for informing a depositor of system operating conditions are enclosed in a housing attached to the section adjacent the access door. Conduits and wiring for interconnecting the many housings are attached to the section so that the sections may be stacked up and the wiring simply plugged together to form the complete chute and control system with minimal on site construction requirements. This ensures safe and correct installation in regions with variable available skills.
