A machine for distributing material from a package of compressed loosefill insulation material is provided. The machine includes a chute having an inlet end and an outlet end. The inlet end is configured to receive compressed loosefill insulation material. A lower unit has a shredding chamber configured to receive the compressed loosefill insulation material from the outlet end of the chute. The shredding chamber includes a plurality of shredders configured to condition the loosefill insulation material. The shredders include a shredder shaft and a plurality of vane assemblies. The vane assemblies are oriented such that adjacent vane assemblies are offset from each other by an angle of about 45° to about 75°. A discharge mechanism receives the loosefill insulation material exiting the shredding chamber and distributes the loosefill insulation material into an airstream and a blower is configured to provide the airstream flowing through the discharge mechanism.

A grinder device is provided with two sets of counter-rotating impact elements that pulverize the material via collisions, which represent impact forces twice as powerful through the doubling of the tip velocity. A continuous self-discharge of harder and heavier particles is provided to assure higher energy efficiency and a cleaner product that subjects the unit to less wear and tear. Outlet ports are provided on flange caps that are removably attached to the grinder device so that the position of the outlet port with relation to the position of a grinder stator is selectively modified. The device of the present invention can be provided in a container for integrating into an existing system or to operate as a standalone unit.

A rotating cutter apparatus including a housing having a housing interior surface defining a housing bore, a shaft extending through the housing bore such that an annular space is provided between the housing interior surface and the shaft, and at least one cutter carried on the shaft. The shaft is rotatable relative to the housing about a shaft axis. The at least one cutter extends radially toward the housing interior surface and is rotatable relative to the housing about the shaft axis. A method for reducing a size of solid objects contained in a fluid, including providing a rotating cutter apparatus, introducing the fluid containing the solid objects into the rotating cutter apparatus, and rotating a shaft and at least one cutter in order to reduce the size of the solid objects while passing the fluid through the rotating cutter apparatus.

There is provided an organic waste processing device comprising: an organic matter-receiving container defining an organic matter-receiving chamber; a gas-propelling unit; a gas-plenum chamber in gas communication with the gas-propelling unit; and a grinding assembly at least partially contained in the organic matter-receiving chamber. The grinding assembly comprises a drive shaft and a rotatable blade assembly including a blade support sleeve mounted to the drive shaft and being engaged in rotation therewith. The rotatable blade assembly further includes at least one blade mounted to the blade support sleeve. An inner surface of the blade support sleeve is spaced-apart from an outer peripheral surface of the drive shaft to define a gas flow channel extending longitudinally into the griding assembly and providing gas communication between the gas-plenum chamber and the organic matter-receiving chamber.

Embassy's under siege have an immediate need to destroy electronic devices. An electronic shredder is provided. A hand crank as backup. This invention relates to a portable electronic shredder. Further, shredder relates to the shredding of electronic devices to a very small size so as to make the shredded remnants untraceable, wherein the mobiles and laptops, CPUs and monitors can be placed for disposing of, following which the electronic devices are exposed to a pulverizer. The pulverizer crushes and cuts the electronic devices to minute remnants. The portable shredder is lightweight, compact and portable, thus making it easy to transport to an e-waste stacked place.
