The present invention relates to a garbage compression device capable of maximizing the ease and efficiency of garbage collection and disposal by minimizing the volume of various types of garbage, such as food, paper, synthetic resins, or metallic materials, through compression thereof. The present invention comprises: a case in which an input port for garbage is formed on the upper portion thereof, and an output port for compressed garbage is formed on the lower portion thereof; a main body part which is installed inside the case and has a pipe shape, and in which an entrance port, into which the garbage input through the input port is entered, is formed on the upper portion thereof and a discharge port for the compressed garbage is formed on the lower end thereof; a compression part including a compression cylinder, which is installed on the upper end of the main body part, and a compression piston, which is provided in the compression cylinder and compresses the input garbage by being driven back and forth in the main body part through a driving member connected to the compression cylinder; and a gate part having a shape closely conforming to the side surface of the compression piston and protruding along the circumference of the inner side surface of the main body part below the entrance port.

A system for recompressing a round bale into a square bale includes a bottom platen and a fixed platen proximate the bottom platen. The system includes a transfer table to receive the round bale. The transfer table is movable relative to the bottom platen to transfer the round bale to the bottom platen and to recompress the round bale. The system includes an upper platen rotatable relative to the bottom platen and the fixed platen. The upper platen is rotatable between a first position to receive the round bale between the bottom platen, the fixed platen and the upper platen, and a second position in which the upper platen cooperates with the transfer table to recompress the round bale into the square bale.

An actuation system for moving a movable platen of a bale recompression system includes one or more actuators, a first scissors linkage, a second scissors linkage and a cross-member. The first scissors linkage has a first link end coupled to a frame of the bale recompression system and has a second link end coupled to the movable platen. The second scissors linkage has a third link end coupled to the frame and has a fourth link end coupled to the movable platen. The cross-member interconnects the first scissors linkage and the second scissors linkage. Actuation of the one or more actuator pivots the first link end of the first scissors linkage and the third link end of the second scissors linkage relative to the frame and translates the movable platen from a first position to a second position. The first scissors linkage and the second scissors linkage are configured to maintain a fixed orientation of the movable platen in the first position and in the second position.

A method of forming a higher density bale of waste paper from two or more lower density bales of waste paper includes positioning the lower density bales intact and in side-by-side relationship with respect to each other, moving them to a compression zone, and compressing the bales together in the compression zone to form a higher density bale. The higher density bale can then be strapped to maintain its higher density configuration and shape. Thus, a larger tonnage of waste paper in bales can be loaded into a shipping container for transport. A rebaler for carrying out the method includes side feed and side retrieval of bales, significantly improving over traditional top feed machines.

Baler devices, systems, and methods are shown and described. In one embodiment, the device includes an access door that is generally repositionable about a maintenance opening in a compression chamber. A chamber maintenance assembly may include a repositionable chamber access door, a pair of opposing hydraulic actuators, and a pair of extension arms connecting the access door and the hydraulic actuators. The result is devices, systems, and methods to provide improved access to the compression chamber to attend to jamming maintenance.

A briquetting machine for loose metal scraps comprises a pre-extrusion part, a re-extrusion part and a final pressing part. On the upper portion of a pre-extrusion cavity (14) of the pre-extrusion part, a pre-extrusion releasing area (15) is formed near to one side of a re-extrusion cavity (24). At the front end of a re-extrusion plunger (23) of the re-extrusion part, a lateral gap (28) is formed near to one side of the pre-extrusion cavity. The cross section of the lateral gap is a right-angled trapezoid and the lateral gap is provided with a lateral slope (29). A briquetting method for loose metal scrapes is disclosed. By way of pre-extrusion and step-by-step feeding and triggering resetting loading, not only is a certain pre-pressing effect guaranteed while the loose metal scraps are processed in each feeding and pre-pressing step, but also the stress can be transferred and released timely under the over-pressure condition, which avoids the formation of dense metal block under the over-pressure condition. Therefore a continuous, automatic and safe pressing operation is assured.

Embodiments relate to the technical field of waste collection, in particular to waste collection equipment, which includes a temporary storage tank, a pressing tank and a pressing mechanism; the temporary storage tank is configured for receiving and temporarily storing wastes produced by die cutting equipment; the pressing tank is configured for carrying the wastes in the temporary storage tank; the pressing mechanism is configured for compressing the wastes in the pressing tank; the temporary storage tank is provided with a first blanking port, which is configured for communicating the temporary storage tank with the pressing tank; the first blanking port is provided with a first valve; and the first valve is configured for opening or closing the first blanking port to control whether the temporary storage tank discharges the wastes.

An agricultural baler includes a needle disposed within a baling chamber. The needle transfers a strap to a gripping device. A needle gripper is disposed on a distal end of the needle and configured to selectively secure the strap to the needle. The needle gripper includes a thumb gripper rotatably mounted to a wall of the needle gripper. The thumb gripper rotates between a first position configured to secure the strap against a surface of the needle and a second position configured to release the strap from the needle. The needle gripper includes a release arm coupled to the thumb gripper and configured to rotate the thumb gripper from the first position to the second position in response to rotation of the release arm about a release arm axis from a neutral position to a first release position.
