Abstract
The garbage processing recycler includes a series of top compartments aligned above a series of bottom compartments. A hydraulic cylinder is concentrically aligned with the top compartments to provide a compressor function attributed with opposing compressor plates that can descend into opposing top compartments to compress recyclable materials contained therein. After compression, a support base is removed and the recyclables are shredded upon passing through a screen via the same hydraulic cylinder and compressor plate, and thereafter the compressed and shredded recyclable material descends below to the respective bottom compartment.
Claims20
A garbage processing recycler, comprising:
- a series of top compartments aligned above a series of bottom compartments;
- wherein each top compartment has an inner side that includes a vertical slot through which a compressor arm can traverse;
- wherein a hydraulic arm attaches to at least one compressor arm, which is attached to a compressor plate that can descend into the top compartment to compress materials located therein;
- wherein a support base slides in and out of a support slot located near a bottom of the top compartment, and when inserted insures that said materials are compressed via the compressor plates.

A garbage processing recycler, comprising:
- a series of top compartments aligned above a series of bottom compartment's;
- wherein the top compartments and the bottom compartments are each wedge shaped and form a pie;
- wherein each top compartment has an inner side that includes a vertical slot through which a compressor arm can traverse;
- wherein a hydraulic arm attaches to at least one compressor arm, which is attached to a compressor plate that can descend into the top compartment to compress materials located therein;
- wherein a support base slides in and out of a support slot located near a bottom of the top compartment, and when inserted insures that said materials are compressed via the compressor plates;
- wherein at least one cover includes a handle to aid in lifting and lowering the cover over the top compartments;
- wherein the hydraulic arm has two compressor arms that extend in opposing directions such that the compressor plates attached thereto can compress materials located in opposing top compartments;
- wherein a gap exists between the top compartments and the bottom compartments such that the compressed materials free-fall down from the top compartment and into a bottom opening of the respective bottom compartment.
