Abstract: The present invention provides new paper shredding devices mountable on various horizontal and vertical surfaces. The paper shredder has a housing defining a paper inlet and a shredding knife in the housing positioned downstream of the paper inlet. A shredding knife controller is connected to the shredding knife. A shredded paper receptacle is positioned downstream of the shredding knife. A bottom of the housing serves as a tabletop mount for standing the shredder on a tabletop. One or more holes may be provided in the back side of the housing to permit the shredder to be mounted on a wall.

Abstract: The present invention provides document shredding devices mountable on various waste receptacles for shredding paper. The document shredding devices have a housing defining a paper shredding passageway. A paper shredding mechanism is contained within the housing and extends into the paper shredding passageway. A mounting support adjustably extends from a waste receptacle mounting side of the housing while remaining housing sides are free of waste receptacle mounting supports. The mounting support has a position retracted into the housing which defines a substantially linear mounting channel and another position extended outward from the housing which defines a nonlinear mounting channel.

Abstract: A housing including a support arm arrangement for a basket mounted paper shredder wherein the support arms have curved or rounded outside perimeters and at least one of the support arms has a curved or rounded inside support rib arrangement to more closely conform to a rounded waste paper basket. The support arm arrangement allows the paper shredder to be mounted to both round and rectangular waste paper baskets. The housing also provides a streamlined shape including a tapered generally triangular motor wiring compartment.
