Abstract: Crushing finely the chipped rubber such as that of waste tire is done by further small number of crushers, and the capture rate of the target size of the rubber particles is improved. With a crusher which finely crushes the chipped rubber (G) such as that of waste tire, the chipped rubber (G) is supplied to a crusher (10a) structured by a rotating roll (12) having relatively rough groove pitch and pluralities of fixed blades (14) each of which has pluralities of grooves forming crushing edges, thus conducting crushing. The rubber particles (G) discharged from the crusher (10a) are again supplied to the crusher (10a) to repeat the crushing to conduct rough-finishing operation. Then, thus roughly-finished rubber particles (G) are treated by similar crushing operation using a rotating roll (10b) having relatively small groove pitch to conduct finish treatment. The finely-crushed rubber particles are classified using a sieve (16) to specified size ranges.

Abstract: A rubber reduction and recycling system with dramatically reduced power requirements. The present invention provides a series of reduction stations which successively reduce the size of the rubber, typically in the form of tires, to eventually result in crumb rubber. The power requirements are dramatically reduced by providing a fixed cutting plate through which the teeth of the cutting apparatus pass and cut the rubber in a shearing fashion. Moreover, the teeth of the cutting apparatus pass through the fixed cutting plate at an angular disposition so that at any given point, a relatively small portion of the rubber is being cut and thereby consuming power. Finally, the power consumption is reduced by providing the teeth on rotating shafts in a plurality of series of arcuate patterns. Therefore, at any given time, only a relatively small number of teeth in each series cut at the same time and thereby require power.

Abstract: There are a number of devices for washing/recycling thermoplastic. However, the devices tend to be designed on a scale for use at a central site. Additionally, the devices currently available do not have a positive feed travel mechanism. Rather the devices permit the thermoplastic to be "pushed" through at a rate dependent on the feed rate. The present invention provides a compact washer/recycler having a positive feed travel which is designed to shred, wash, dry and compact plastic at the location of its use.

Abstract: A coated or plated resin component is roughly ground to prepare a roughly-ground form. The roughly-ground form is heated and extruded to prepare an extruded strand or film composed of a base resin and coating film pieces or deposit pieces therein. The extruded form is rolled and drawn to prepare a rolled film. The rolled film is pulverized to prepare pulverized form which is separated into a base resin component and a coating film or deposit piece component. Instead of extruding step, the roughly-ground form is blown by an inflation method to prepare a blown tube composed of a base resin and coating film piece or deposit pieces therein.

According to the present invention, it is possible to improve dispersibility of vegetable fibers which have conventionally been unable to be uniformly blended with other materials due to lumping and/or entwining, thereby providing an advantage that uniform blending with other materials becomes possible.

Abstract: The solid waste processing unit will reduce normal waste stream solids, all considered to be nonedible garbage, to 10-15 percent of the original volume ready for recycling or disposal. The unit can be placed in any location and can be manufactured to meet any capacity. The unit crushes, tears and shreds solid waste in a disintegrator which is composed of two sections. The first is a stationary chamber and the second is top cone-shaped drum rotating at high speed and high torque within the stationary chamber. Both sections are equipped with elliptical-patterned cutting heads and the waste is forced down through the chamber by the drum until it is ground into material for sizing in a rotating screening cylinder. The rotating screening cyclinder sizes and sorts the material into storage bins below with the aid of a fan to expedite the screening process. If the screened and sorted waste fills the compartmentized bins to capacity the system is stopped by electrical means.

Abstract: A machine of modular construction having a framework onto which a plurality of removable stators is mounted. The stators are fixed relative to rotors which fit within openings in the stators. The rotors are keyed to a central axial shaft which provides rotary power so that the rotors can rotate within the fixed stators. Each rotor has a number of radially extending blades having a forward edge carrying a knife, while the stator has similar radially extending blades and knives confronting the rotor's knives in a material shearing relationship. A modular stator is jointed for disassembly allowing access to both rotor and stator knives while the apparatus is still mounted on the framework.

Abstract: Upper and lower millstones are provided in a milling apparatus adapted to mill a wide range of cereal grains and other kernels. The upper millstone is stationary and is pierced by a central orifice through which the drive shaft of the rotating lower millstone passes. Cutting teeth protrude radially from the drive shaft in the region of the central orifice and cooperate with guide channels in the orifice wall to break kernels larger than would pass through the annulus between the shaft and the orifice, thereby supplying pre-milled kernel fragments to the opposing milling surfaces of the upper and lower millstones. Radially spiralling furrows in the milling surfaces further reduce the feed to flour, prior to discharge at the outer periphery of the milling apparatus.
