ABSTRACT:
A rotatable disk mounted to a baseplate at each corner of a refuse compactor pivots between a first orientation having a horizontal axis of rotation for operation as a wheel and a second orientation having a vertical axis of rotation for operation as a leg. The disk is mounted on a bearing support that interfits with elongated slots formed in the baseplate to enable the height of any corner of the compactor, independent of the orientation of the disk, to be adjusted. In one embodiment, the bearing support comprises a nylon block into which an axle of the rotatable disk is snap-fit. In another embodiment, the bearing support comprises an angle bracket to which the axle is welded.
