  • Publication number: 20080197222
    Abstract: A reclamation system for breaking, consolidating, and shipping used fluorescent lamp tubes comprising a breaking chamber consisting of a flexible portion or tube where multiple lamp tubes are broken by being struck with a mallet. The breaking chamber is then ready to be packed and sent to a recycling depot. In another embodiment, the broken tubes are dumped directly from the breaking chamber into a receiving drum. When the drum is full, the breaking chamber is folded back and forth on itself and stored on the lid of the receiving drum. This seals the drum, without being opened in the field. A protective cap is then attached and the filled drum along with the breaking chamber is shipped to a recycling depot where it is emptied, cleaned, re-furbished, and returned to the field ready to receive another load of fluorescent tubes. In both embodiments, the vapors and dust are within a sealed apparatus from the time of loading with whole tubes to the opening at the recycling depot.

  • Publication number: 20060065805
    Abstract: A clamp is formed by spaced limbs such that a mounting rod extending through the clamp provides a stable structure despite formation from sheet material. Essentially, the mounting rod reinforces the clamp in order to present a clamping mechanism. Different embodiments of the clamp are provided in which overlapping edges are created through which the drop or mounting rod extends in order to provide reinforcement for the clamp. Thus, a body portion of the clamp may simply be formed with overlapping ears in which drop rod apertures are provided which, when aligned, receive a mounting or drop rod. Alternatively, saddle members may be provided which extend across the spaced limbs in order to present apertures in which the mounting or drop rod is located. Furthermore, cap members may be provided in which apertures receive a mounting or drop rod in order to secure the clamp and present a clamping mechanism.
