| 20100005980 | Device for Compressing Biomass to Create Fuel - The present invention is a biomass compactor. The device is made up of a frame having a hydraulic compaction cylinder. When the hydraulic control is activated, the compaction cylinder moves forward through a hopper filled with various biomass materials, such as but not limited to, yard waste and food waste products. The compaction cylinder pushes the raw biomass material into the compaction area, thereby compressing the biomass material. When the compaction cylinder is retracted, the hopper can then be refilled and the compaction process repeated as desired up until the point where the compression area is full. The resulting compressed biomass material is removed and can be used as fuel, such as by burning the resulting compressed biomass material in a fireplace or wood burning stove. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20110308403 | ENGINEERED TOP INFEED HOPPER SYSTEM - A baler for making compacted bales of a cellulosic and preferably woody biomass material, the baler comprising: a housing defining a compaction chamber therein, wherein the housing comprises a top wall, an infeed opening defined in the top wall for introducing the material into the compaction chamber, and a hopper system comprising: first and second doors pivotably attached to the housing in opposing array over the infeed opening, wherein each door comprises a pivot having a plurality of fingers extending in planar array therefrom and defining a plurality of recesses disposed therebetween, and wherein the fingers of the first and second doors are staggered such that the fingers of each door are positioned opposite to and receivable by the recesses of the other door, and actuator means for pivoting the doors upwardly to form a chute for directing the material toward the infeed opening, and downwardly to intermesh and preferably interlock the fingers and substantially cover the infeed opening. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20120073457 | AGRICULTURAL RAM PRESS - An agricultural ram press has a bale chamber, a baling ram moveable in an oscillating manner in the bale chamber, a feed channel, a feed rake arranged in the feed channel and switchable between a gathering stroke motion which compresses crop in the feed channel and a filling stroke motion which moves the crop from the feed channel into the bale channel, and a drive for driving the feed rake and having a control rod interacting with an adjustable stop to control at least one of the motions of the feed rake. | 03-29-2012 |
| 20120132091 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FORMING BUNDLES COMPOSED OF PRINTED PRODUCTS - An apparatus for forming bundles of printed products includes a lift element that moves vertically inside a holding area. The printed products are deposited on the lift element when the lift element is in an upper position. The lift moves the deposited printed products downward into the holding area so that the printed products are in position to subsequently be compressed into a bundle by pressing the printed products with an upward movement against a pressing element. The lift transports the compressed bundle to a lower position in the holding area where the lift element moves out of the holding area to a position in which the bundle is released to drop onto a support element. The lift element thereafter is moveable from the lower position to the upper position for the depositing of additional printed products. An ejection element conveys the compressed bundle out of the holding area. | 05-31-2012 |
| 20120272844 | HORIZONTAL COMPACTOR FOR LANDSCAPING WASTE - A portable compactor for landscape waste formed as a generally rectangular box, extending from a gate at a front end to a closed second end. An opening in top of the box allows waste to be placed in an internal compaction chamber and a compaction plate disposed inside the box moves on parallel threaded drive rods extending along either side of the compactor to compact inserted material against the gate. Following compaction, the plate may be reversed to move away from the gate to provide additional space for insertion of waste. When full, the gate may be opened and the plate advanced to push waste out of the compaction chamber where it can be further used, disposed of or bagged for conversion to silage. The system may be sized to allow for installation in the bed of a pick-up truck, or on a small flatbed or trailer. | 11-01-2012 |

| 20160144586 | Lifting/ tipping device for emptying a collection container in a baling press, as well as baling press and method for filling the baling press - A lifting/tipping device for emptying a collection container into a filling shaft of a baling press having a horizontal construction, for compaction of loose material, particularly of cardboard or similar waste/packaging material, into bales; wherein the collection container can be pivoted from a starting position into an emptying position by means of a special lifting/tipping device, so that then, the waste material falls out of the collection container and through the filling shaft into an ante-chamber of a pressing chamber, in front of a pressing organ of the baling press, under the force of gravity, and thereby this ante-chamber is filled for the pressing process. The special lifting/tipping device allows relatively low lifting and pivoting of the collection container during the movement for emptying it. It is furthermore positioned on the baling press in such a manner that the functional surfaces required in the baling press are utilized in multivalent manner, thereby reducing the total functional surface. | 05-26-2016 |
