Abstract
The load compaction unit has a shape and weight that work to gain maximum compaction of materials. The load compaction unit has no working parts and can be attached to a 360-degree excavator by means of a quick hitch attachment. The excavator may use the compaction unit to compact waste materials in a container. The unit is made of steel and may contain concrete or sand to increase its weight.
Description
1 2450724 Load Compaction Unit This invention is an attachment for a
360-degree excavator.
The waste industry has for many years used compaction rollers to compact waste with good results. They too are made to attach to 360degree excavators. Some are hydraulically driven some are free rotating but all have working parts.
However, the cost to manufacture these compaction rollers has risen out of all proortion. The Load Compactor Unit has been designed and developed as a result of tl]istc'ost in manufacturing.
The Load Compactor Unit has no working parts therefore it differs from the conventional compaction rollers, It can be attached to any 360-degree excavator that has quick hitch attachment. The weight and design of The Load Compaction Unit together with the down force generated by attaching to a 360-degree excavator provides sufficient force to achieve good compaction of materials. Also, its unique shape and design works as effectively as compaction rollers.
The waste industry transports waste in containers. By using the Load Compaction Unit it is possible to double the weight of the waste in the containers.
The Load Compaction Unit has been developed and proven to be suitable for use in the waste industry and can be used to compact green waste, wood, steel, and general waste.
The cost of the Load Compaction Unit has is a significant saving on the current costs of the units in use in the current waste industry.
The invention will now be described solely by way of example and with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Figure 1 shows the underside of the Load Compaction Unit with no working parts. 1 shows the crunching noggins on the base of the Load Compaction Unit.
Figure 2 shows the side of the unit. 1 shows the quick hitch attachment fitted to the Load Compaction unit with quick hitch pins. 2 can be filled with concrete or sand to add more weight to the unit if required.
Figure 3 shows a front view of the Load Compaction Unit made from steel with no
Claims (7)
- Claims 1. The Load Compaction Unit has been designed with a uniqueshape and weight that works to gain maximum compaction of materials by means of attaching to a 360-degree excavator.
- 2. The Load Compaction Unit according to claim 1, is able to work with existing quick hitch attachments for 360 degree excavators to compact materials into containers.
- 3. The Load Compaction Unit according to claim 2, works by connecting to a quick hitch attachment on a 360 degree excavator by way of the excavator backhoe, boom and dipper arm.
- 4. The weight of the compaction unit and the down force of the excavator backhoe, according to claim 3, provide the crushing and compaction of materials in the container.
- 5. Further compaction can be gained by operating the control on the excavator, according to claim2, which rolls the Load Compaction Unit back and forward whilst engaging with the material.
- 6. Further compaction, according to claim 5, can be gained by adding concrete or sand, to the Load Compaction Unit.
- 7. The Load Compaction Units unique shape and weight according to claim 1 together with the fact that it has no working parts, can be economically manufactured.
