A self-destructive storage system and method is disclosed. The system includes a digital storage, and a destruction mechanism located proximate the digital storage and configured to physically render the digital storage unreadable upon activation. The system also includes a controller having a processor and a memory. The controller is communicatively coupled to the destruction mechanism and is configured to activate the destruction mechanism in response to at least one of the receipt of a destroy command and the satisfaction of a predefined condition. The system also includes a wireless network interface that is communicatively coupled to the controller and a wireless network. The digital storage device, the controller, and the destruction mechanism are coupled to a drive enclosure.

A stirring apparatus includes a shredder that shreds a sheet; a case that accommodates a sheet piece shredded by the shredder and has a bottom surface and an inner surface; and a rotator that is disposed at the bottom surface of the case and includes a blade which stirs the sheet piece by rotation, in which L1<L3<L2, when between an outer end of the blade and the inner surface in a radial direction of the rotator, a shortest distance in the radial direction is defined as L1, a longest distance in the radial direction is defined as L2, and an average major axis length of the sheet piece is defined as L3.

A disintegrating machine, in particular a rotor cutter or rotor tearing device, contains at least a first blade shaft, a second blade shaft, a frame, and a driving device for driving the blade shafts. The blade shafts are rotatably accommodated by bearings in bearing receptacles of the frame. The bearing receptacles are configured to improve the maintenance friendliness, in particular by a maintenance-friendly bearing receptacle and/or quick-exchange coupling and/or quickly removable scrapers and/or multifunctional bearing plates and/or by reinforcing ribs, and with regard to a lighter construction while achieving the same or better stability properties.

The present invention relates to an apparatus (1) for pulverizing a material. The apparatus comprises a stationary housing (3) having an interior space and at least one interior wall facing the interior space. At least one sawblade (9) is disposed in the interior space and arranged rotatable with respect to the stationary housing (3). The at least one sawblade (9) has a periphery (12) provided with a plurality of cutting teeth (15) for cutting the material and a plurality of collecting notches (17) for collecting the cut material. The apparatus comprises an inlet opening (19) for feeding material to the interior space, and an outlet opening (21) for dispatching pulverized material from the interior space. The interior wall (7) of the housing is provided with a plurality of recesses (23) facing the periphery (12) of the sawblade (9), arranged to receive the cut material from the collecting notches (17) of the sawblade (9), and to revert the cut material to the periphery (12) of the sawblade (9) so that the material will be cut multiple times before it is dispatched from the apparatus. The interior wall (7) surrounds a main part of the periphery (12) of the at least one sawblade (9), and the inlet opening (19) and the outlet opening (21) are arranged in the interior wall (7) and in direct communication with the interior space (5) so that the material enters and leaves the interior space (5) during one revolution of the at least one sawblade (9).

A comminuting device for solids-conducting liquids includes a housing with an inlet opening, an outlet opening, and a housing interior extending from the inlet opening to the outlet opening, a first comminuting shaft extending through the housing interior and arranged to rotate about a first comminuting axis. A second comminuting shaft extends through the housing interior and is arranged to rotate about a second comminuting axis. A screening device has a screening wall comprising a plurality of slots arranged in the housing interior adjacent to the first comminuting shaft. A clearing device has a plurality of clearing elements which can be moved relative to the screening wall along a movement path and which extend through the plurality of slots starting from a clearing shaft arranged on one side of the filter wall to at least one portion of the movement path.

A chopper system and method for cutting crop material with a rotating first drum having first blades and a counter-rotating second drums having second blades. Blade pairs with one first blade and one second blade contact one another and cut the crop material. The blades of each blade pair contact one another for at least ten degrees of rotation. The blades can have beveled cutting edges, and the blade pairs can make bevel to bevel contact. The initial contact of the blade pairs during each rotation can form a swipe angle of 15 degrees or less. The initial contact of the blade pairs during each rotation can have the acute end of the first blade contact the second blade near the middle of the beveled edge. During each rotation, the acute end of the second blade can contact the back of the first blade.

A washing apparatus comprises a tank in which rotatable, bladed shafts are located. The tank has a closable lower outlet located at a first end of the tank, and an upper outlet located at the first end of the tank, the upper outlet being higher than the lower outlet. A further outlet is located at a second end or between the first and second ends. The tank is disposed at an inclined angle such that the first end of the tank is lower than the second end of the tank, and is movable between a first inclined state in which the inclined angle is relatively shallow, and a second inclined state in which the inclined angle is relatively steep. The apparatus is able to perform the tasks of either a log washer or coarse material washer depending on the angle of inclination.
