  • Patent number: 4792049
    Abstract: A system and process for sorting and conveying articles consisting of discarded tires and debris from one site to another site. The system and process receives articles in bulk, and concurrently singularizes and conveys the separated articles. Various physical characteristics of the individual articles, such as weight and size, are determined as the articles are continuously conveyed. Those articles having a physical property outside of a predetermined parameter range are ejected from the system. The remaining articles are then accumulated into groups of articles based on a physical characteristic of each article such that the sum of the physical characteristics of the articles of each group will be above a minimum and not exceed predetermined maximum values. The group of articles is then conveyed as a unit out of the system for a following operation such as disposal of the articles.
