ABSTRACT:
A frame having a baling chamber formed therein and a feed hopper member pivotally mounted adjacent the chamber for introducing a car body or similar article partially into the baling chamber. A cover member is pivotally mounted adjacent the other side of the baling chamber and has a front edge constructed as a cutting edge. The cover member when pivoted to its open position permits the introduction of the car body into the baling chamber by tilting the feed hopper member. The cover member, when pivoted to its closed position after the car body is partially introduced into the baling chamber, will partially crush and bend the car at approximately the middle portion thereof so that substantially one-half of the car body will be inside the baling chamber and the other half will protrude out of the baling chamber through the space adjacent the front edge of the cover member. The portion of the car body protruding out of the baling chamber is sheared off and a portion of the car body remaining in the chamber is then partially crushed by moving the head of a first compression ram into the baling chamber. The ram head has a cutting edge thereon which cooperates with the cutting edge on the cover member to produce the desired shearing action therebetween. The partially compressed material in the baling chamber is then further compressed into a completed bale by moving the head of a second compression ram into the baling chamber underneath the cover. The travel path of the second compression head is at right angles to the travel path of the first compression head. The completed bale is removed from the baling chamber by actuating a gate member to expose an opening in the bottom of the baling chamber to thereby permit the completed bale to drop out of the chamber through the opening by gravity.
