ABSTRACT:
A refuse collection apparatus in which a packing panel having a curved packing surface is moved through a hopper. The hopper may include a vertically inclined forward packing surface so that refuse is packed between the curved packing surface and the vertically inclined forward packing surface of the hopper. The hopper may include a straight rearward wall portion with the packing panel having a narrowed lower edge. During its movement into the hopper, the packing panel may be moved so that its narrowed lower edge is in contiguous relation to the straight rearward wall portion of the hopper. The packing panel may include one or more upstanding ribs on its curved packing surface which provide a reduced area for application of high localized pressures to refuse contacted by a rib.
