ABSTRACT:
The solid waste processing unit will reduce normal waste stream solids, all considered to be nonedible garbage, to 10-15 percent of the original volume ready for recycling or disposal. The unit can be placed in any location and can be manufactured to meet any capacity. The unit crushes, tears and shreds solid waste in a disintegrator which is composed of two sections. The first is a stationary chamber and the second is top cone-shaped drum rotating at high speed and high torque within the stationary chamber. Both sections are equipped with elliptical-patterned cutting heads and the waste is forced down through the chamber by the drum until it is ground into material for sizing in a rotating screening cylinder. The rotating screening cyclinder sizes and sorts the material into storage bins below with the aid of a fan to expedite the screening process. If the screened and sorted waste fills the compartmentized bins to capacity the system is stopped by electrical means. A traversing compactor assembly is moved manually to each bin to be emptied. That assembly is equipped with safety switches that will not allow the two rollers used for compaction to be powered until the assembly is properly locked in place in a bin. The compactor assembly will automatically stop operation when a bin becomes empty. All components of the unit are enclosed in a double-walled insulated compartment.
