ABSTRACT:
A refuse compactor having a movable compacting receptacle with a plurality of control switches arranged in a novel manner to facilitate control of the compactor operation. The switches include switches for controlling the electrical drive motor of the compacting ram and structure for actuating the switches under different conditions, such as a tilted condition of the receptacle, a retraction of the ram to a retracted position, a displacement of the receptacle from the compacting position, and the like. The switches are disposed in juxtaposition for facilitated control and maintenance. An indicator may be provided for indicating the prevention of operation of the apparatus because of a tilted condition of the receptacle. The switch actuator structure includes a rod which is movably carried by the frame of the compactor and which includes a plurality of operating portions arranged to actuate different switches under different conditions of the compactor.
