ABSTRACT:
A mulching apparatus is described for converting green waste, including tree branches, small limbs, leaves, and grass clippings into a pulverized mulch. The apparatus comprises a green waste agitator hopper in the shape of an inverted, truncated cone, the hopper having a plurality of first blades fixed to an inner wall and projecting toward a vertical axis of the hopper. A waste agitator arm is rotatably mounted in the hopper through a bottom of the hopper for rotational movement about the vertical axis. The waste agitator arm has a plurality of second blades fixed thereto so as to intermesh with the hopper blades when the arm is rotated. A conduit is connected to a side region of the hopper to enable feeding waste material from the hopper to a fan mulching pulverizer disc rotatably installed in the conduit. The fan mulching pulverizer disc reduces the hopper waste material to a pulverized mulch and then blows the pulverized mulch out of the apparatus through a discharge duct.
