Abstract: An incremental material urging system adapted to the compaction of a volume of compactable material including a container structure with floor, roof, and opposing side wall structures closed at a rearward end. The roof has a loading aperture for introducing the compactable material into the container structure. The system also includes an incrementing urging structure adapted to traversing substantially the length of the container structure. A discharge gate is provided at a discharge end of the container structure for the ejection of the compactable material. Two cooperating mechanical systems urge the incrementing urging structure into incremental horizontal motion within the container structure.

Abstract: An incremental urging system comprising a container structure including floor, roof, and side wall structures, and closed at a rearward end. A loading aperture is provided in the roof of the container structure for the introduction of compactable material. An incrementing urging structure traverses substantially the length of the container structure from a fully retracted position at the rearward end, to a fully advanced position at a forward or discharge end, with compactable material being ejected through a discharge gate at the forward. The incrementing urging structure is urged into incremental horizontal motion within the container structure by two cooperating mechanical systems.
