A combination grinder and filling apparatus for plant material used to deposit small particles of plant material into a pre-formed cone. The apparatus includes a rotating end cap mounted over a grinder body. Formed on the grinder body is a filling cavity in which bulk plant material is placed. Formed in the end cap or grinder body are knives that cut the plant material when the end cap is placed on the grinder body and rotated. Located under the grinder body is a collection plate with holes that allow small particles to fall into a conical-shaped receiving cavity formed on a connection body. Attached to the collection body is a lower end cap with a lower bore in which the lower neck of the collection body extends. Pressing arms located on the lower end cap automatically press against a pre-rolled cone extended around the lower neck. A plunger extends through the apparatus to pack mall plant material into the pre-rolled cone. An agitator coupled to the plunger is positioned in the receiving cavity and used to break away small plant particles.

A paper shredder bin-full sensor with a push bar, a conductive element coupled to the push bar, a sensing contact assembly normally set apart from the conductive element, and a signaling contact coupled to the sensing contact assembly. Sensor includes a push bar sweeper between the conductive element and the push bar, and a biasing element coupled to the push bar sweeper, the biasing element elastically resists the shredded material force. A predetermined shredded material force presses the push bar, causing the conductive element to couple to the sensing contact assembly, in turn causing a waste bin-full signal to emanate. Push bar can be articulated and non-articulated. Articulated push bars include upper and lower push bars, and respective tensioning element connecting the respective upper and lower push bars. Lower push bar is extended from upper push bar. Paper shredder can have articulated or non-articulated push bars.

Machines and methods adapted to process, for example, to reduce the size of, disperse, or homogenize, a variety of materials and compositions. Such methods and machines are capable of reducing the size of a material and dispersing the material in a liquid by cutting the material with knives located along a perimeter of an annular-shaped cutting head, causing the cut material to flow radially outward from the cutting head through gaps between the knives, and flowing a liquid through passages in the cutting head that cause the liquid to cascade around the knives of the cutting head in an axial direction of the cutting head.

A substrate processing apparatus for separating an electronic component from a substrate with the electronic component attached to an upper surface includes an upper surface processing device that separates the electronic component from the upper surface of the substrate. The upper surface processing device has an upper surface processing transporter that transports the substrate from an upstream side to a downstream side and an upper surface rotary blade that separates the electronic component from the upper surface of the substrate. The upper surface processing transporter has a sixth belt conveyor on the upstream side and a seventh belt conveyor on the downstream side, the sixth and seventh belt conveyors being located below the upper surface rotary blade and aligned in a transport direction. The upper surface rotary blade has a downstream portion facing a gap between the sixth belt conveyor and the seventh belt conveyor.
