Abstract: A compaction material feeding device for a vertical baling press, the compaction material feeding device having a compaction material compartment and a conveyor for feeding compaction material from the compaction material compartment to a loading opening of the associated baling press. In the compaction material feeding device the compaction material compartment is limited by a web-shaped carrier element having side wall segments and having a floor segment, as well as at least two fixed second side walls situated opposite one another. The carrier element can be lifted by a lifter device. In a maximally lifted end position of the carrier element, this element is drawn tight, and a compaction material transfer region of the compaction material feeding device is covered and closed by one of the side wall segments of the carrier element. In addition, a baling press is provided having a compaction material feeding device as described.

Abstract: A compaction material feeding device for a vertical baling press, the compaction material feeding device having a compaction material compailinent and a conveyor for feeding compaction material from the compaction material compailinent to a loading opening of the associated baling press.

Abstract: A device for collecting and feeding compaction material to a press, comprising a collection cart having a compaction material collection compartment, and a compaction material feed device, with which the cart can be docked. The cart has a floor and opposing side walls and the compaction material can be removed, by an upward lifting motion, from the cart by the feed device and then fed to the press. A web-type, flexible or articulated carrier element with a floor portion and at least two opposing wall portions, each having an upper free edge, is provided on or in the cart. The carrier element, in an initial position, has a U-shaped form running parallel to at least two opposing side walls and the floor of the cart, when the cart is docked with the feed device. The carrier element can be shortened or lifted at one of the free edges.
