ABSTRACT:
The improvements relate to shredders for paper and the like having a shredding mechanism with an opening through which shredded material passes out of the shredding mechanism, a compactor plate located beneath the shredding mechanism and including an opening, and a base, wherein the shredder has a waste bag support mechanism of which the compactor plate forms a part. The waste bag support mechanism is secured to the underside of the shredding mechanism towards the rear thereof for pivotal movement between an operating position in which an upper part of the waste bag support mechanism is close to the underside of the shredding mechanism, and a bag removal position in which the upper part of the waste bag support mechanism is pivoted downwards at its front away from the shredding mechanism. The waste bag support mechanism includes extending runners on which the compactor plate is mounted for sliding movement between the operating position located beneath the shredding mechanism in which the opening in the compactor plate is substantially directly beneath the opening through which the shredded material passes, and the bag removal position in which the compactor plate is located forward of the shredding mechanism.
