  • Patent number: 5405093
    Abstract: A disposal system 1 for waste material comprising independently integrated shredding 2, storage 3, and furnace 4 systems. A first transportation system 5, controlled by the shredding system, transports material to the storage system which has capacity that permits repeated shredding cycles with no furnace cycle. A second transportation system 6, controlled by the furnace system, removes material from the storage system at a rate satisfying the output heat demand 7 of the furnace system. The shredder 19 has a hopper 20 with three vertical sides, 9 10, and 11, and a fourth inclined side 12 with a blade 13 at its lowest end. A single rotating member 14 cooperates with the blade. A pusher 15, acting along the inclined side, dislodges any bridging in the hopper. A grate 16 receives the shredded material and cooperates with the rotating member for further shredding. There is a magnetic separator 17.

  • Patent number: 5125485
    Abstract: A movement control system for a motor vehicle comprising a movement control device, an acceleration or deceleration signal and a vehicle speed reference signal insensitive to the vehicles' direction are sent to a controller. The system also includes a throttle actuator, brake actuator and anti-lock braking. The controller which receives the acceleration or deceleration signal and vehicle speed reference signal calculates the rate of change of vehicle speed and energizes either the throttle actuator or brake actuator so that the calculated rate of change of speed compares favorably to the reference signal from the movement control device. A cruise control sends a reference speed signal to the controller which compares it to the vehicle speed signal and energizes either the throttle actuator or brake actuator so that the two signals favorably compare, thus controlling the vehicle speed while in the cruise control mode.
