No. 61,693 filed Aug. .6, 1970 now U.S. Pat. No. 3,650,298.
There are presently in use a number of different machines which operate on the principle of feeding refuse or solid waste from a hopper into a tube whose delivery end is tapered and forcing the refuse preferably by hydraulic rams through the delivery end where it is compressed or compacted as slugs into containers. In one such machine an extendable plastic tube is mounted on the delivery end of the compactor tube into which the slugs are forced and then the tube is severed and tied into predetermined lengths for disposal.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a plastic tube for mounting on the end of a refuse compactor tube having spaced portions which are not extendable during compaction but are manually or mechanically extendable thereafter so that the areas are made readily available for efficient severing and tieing of the tube into units of desired length.
Another object of the invention is to provide a plastic tube of the character described in which the spaced areas which are not extendable during compaction are provided with separable means for readily and easily extending said areas manually or mechanically by the use of a relatively low pulling force which acts to rupture said separable means but minimize rupture of the plastic tube at said areas.
Another object of the invention is to provide a plastic tube for mounting upon the end of a refuse compaction tube having spaced folded portions in which the folds are retained as such by heat sealing means which are readily separable by the exertion of a pulling force which does not rupture the body of the plastic tube and makes available areas which can be readily tied and severed to provide plastic containers of predetermined size filled with compacted refuse slugs.
Another object of the invention is to provide a plastic tube for mounting upon the end of a refuse compaction tube having spaced folded portions which are separably joined and a weakened area in each folded portion so that when the folded portions are unfolded by the exertion of a pulling force thereon, the unfolded area can be tied on opposite sides of the weakened area and the latter severed to close off the adjacent plastic containers having the compacted refuse therein.
These and other objects of the invention will become more apparent as the following description proceeds in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic view of a refuse compaction machine with the plastic tube of the instant invention shown mounted thereon and partly filled;
FIG. 2 is a side elevation of the plastic tube completely filled with compacted refuse, partly broken away and partly in section;
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the area shown as numeral 3 on FIG. 2; 1
- FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken on the line 44 of FIG. 2;
the plastic tube showing a modified form of the invention;
'FIG. 9 is an elevation of a portion of the plastic tube and similar to FIG. 5 as applied to the modification of FIG. 8; and
FIG. 10 is a fragmentary side elevation of another modification of the invention, parts being broken away and shown in section.
Specific reference is now made to the drawings in which similar reference characters are used for corresponding elements throughout.
Indicated at 10 and shown in generalized diagrammatic form is a solid waste or refuse compaction machine comprising a hopper into which the refuse is fed, a tube or cylindrical member 14 communicative'therewith,'a compaction ram 16 slidable therein to push the refuse through the delivery end 18 thereof which is inwardly tapered (not shown) to provide the compaction. While a horizontal compaction tube is shown, it will be understood that the same may also be vertically disposed. The ram is preferably hydraulically operated by controls (not shown) which may synchronize the ram operation and the supply of refuse in the hopper.
The plastic tube of the instant invention is shown at 20 which in the form of overlapped folds 22 .forms a 1 cartridge unit of relatively short over-all length. The
cartridge is slipped over the tapered delivery end 18 of the compaction tube. The outer end of the plastic tube 20 is tied as by a wire as at 24 whereas the inner end 26 is removably held on the compaction tube 14 by suitable means, such'as pivoted spring fingers 28. As the solid waste or refuse is compacted at the tapered end 18 of the tube 14 and pushed into the plastic tube 20, the latter will extend to its full length, there being a suitable support, such as a conveyor 30 or rollers to support the outer end portion of the plastic tube.
After the plastic tube is filled with compacted slugs of waste or refuse, which can varyin length and is generally about 12-15 ft. long when extended with the secured folds intact and about 18 inches in diameter, it becomes necessary to cut and tie the tube into predetermined lengths, such as about 20 in. v
To the end that the plastic tube 20 can be readily and easily severed and tied at the desired lengths with minimal possibility of injury to the filled tube, the tube is constructed with folds or tucks which can be unfolded manually or mechanically with relatively small pulling force after the compacted slugs of waste or refuse have filled the tube. 1
Coming now to the'form of the invention shown in FIGS. 2-6, the tube 20 which is made of a suitable plastic and may be of any desired cross-section but preferably circular, is provided at spaced'intervals, say 2 ft. apart, with external folds or tucks 32 extending in the same direction from the outer end 24 to the end 26 which is mounted on the compaction tube 14. Each fold is formed by tucking the main body portion of one section 34 under the main body portion of the adjacent section 36 to provide a fold having two circumferentially extending portions 38 and 40 joined by a web 42.
' the portions 38 and 40 of alternate folds or every other fold are heat sealed as at 44 at circumferentially spaced points, there being preferably six such seals, each three-eighths by one-sixteenth inch, about 60 apart,
although four seals about 90 apart may also be em- I ployedQWhile the overall length of the fold 32 may vary, a length of about 20 in. is preferred, each fold portion 38 and 40 being, therefore, about in. long.
When the entire length of the plastic tube is compressed, preferably by folding one portion over the next, it occupies a'relatively small length generally about 12 in. and becomes a cartridge which is readily slipped onto the delivery end 18 of the compaction tube 14, there to be held by the pivoted spring fingers 28, while-the outer end 24 is tied by a wire to close it off. As theslugs of compacted refuse are forced into the plastic tube 20 by the ram, the plastic tube fills up and extends-its full length, the alternate sealed folds remaining intact, as seen in FIG. 2. However, while every other unsealed fold extends and is filled with the compacted refuse because the alternate folds 32 are sealed at their bases and they extend in the direction of the inner end 26 ofthe plastic tube, the plastic tube fills and unfolds smoothly, the folds 32 remaining attached to the main body portions of the tube by the seals 44. I
The end 26 which remained on the delivery end or nozzle 26 of the compaction tube is then removed and closed off bya suitable wire 46. Thereafter, at each of the adjacent sections 34 and 36, a pull is exerted, in the order of magnitude of 5-10 pounds, which breaks the seals44, as shown at 48, to unfold the fold 32, as seen in FIG. 5. The portion 38 is then tied by a wire 50 and the adjacent portion 40 by a wire 52 and the area between the ties 50 and S2 is then cut. Repeating this procedure for the full length of the plastic tube 20 will produce a plurality of plastic containers 54, see FIG. 7, filled with slugs of compacted solid waste or trash and tied at their ends as at 56 and 58.
In the form of the invention shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the same folded construction as that heretofore described is used except that a circumferentially extending perforated or weakened area or line 60 is provided in either the portion 38 or 40 of the fold 32 adjacent the web 42 so that when the seals 44 are broken, as shown at 48, the perforated or weakened area 60 will extend between the broken seals, and when the ends 38 and 40 are tied, as previously described with reference to FIG. 6, the adjacent tied units can then be pulled apart at the perforated or weakened area, rather than cut.
In the form of the invention shown in FIG. 10, the ad jacent main body sections 34 and 36 are each separated by the same fold 32 previously described which consists of inner and outer portions 38 and 40 joined by a web 42. However, the bases of the portions 28 and 40 of the alternate folds or every other fold are not heat sealed. Rather, every other fold. is retained in an unfolding position during the filling of the tube with compacted slugs of refuse by adhesive means, preferably tapes 62 each having a pressure sensitive adhesive surface which engages the outer'surface of one section 34, bridges the web portion 42 of the fold and engages the outer surface of the outer fold portion 40, there being preferably four such tapes spaced about apart.
While any plastic may be used to make the tube of the instant invention, a preferred plastic is polybutyicm which has a high tensile strength, high dart drop Y strength, high tear strength and exceptional resistance to environmental stress cracking Also, while the preferred embodiment herein is the one in which the bases of the alternate folds'32 are heat sealed or bonded at circumferentially spaced areas, the bases of thesefolds can also be separably secured by a suitable cement or adhesive for the plastic from which the tube is made.
While preferred embodiments of the invention have here been shown and described, it will be understood that minor variations may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the appended claims. I
