Raking it in.  Top of the morning.    Worry often gives a small thing a big shadow. A rolling stone gathers no moss. Putting it in a nutshell.   A rolling stone gathers no moss. Schools out for summer.   Sick as a dog.   You have to separate the chaff from the wheat. Plain as water. A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Timing is everything.  Read the tea leaves. The silly season.

Format:Paperback This is a dreadful book: it is boring and at the same time deeply prejudiced; but (as Jonathan Haslam points out in `The Vices of Integrity'), it was highly praised when it was first published in the early 1950s.In `What is History'(1962), E.H.Carr warned students against the idea that there was such a thing as totally objective history, and that they should always listen out for the bees buzzing in the historian's bonnet. When writing about the Soviet Union, Carr had two very large bees: he was a great admirer of Lenin and he believed that the USSR was here to stay.We forget how dominant the USSR seemed between 1945 and its collapse in 1991. It did seem that it had proved itself by its defeat of Nazi Germany, and that some form of communism was likely to prevail in a large part of the world, for the foreseeable future. Carr gave these views respectability, by writing what appeared to be an objective and well-documented history of the original Bolshevik Revolution. As A.L. Rowse pointed out in `Historians I Have Known', the book was one long excuse for communism, and therefore for tyranny. It was also a variation on the theme that, while Stalin was a 'bad guy', Lenin was a good one. Therefore, the system he created could be saved. Communism did not necessarily mean dictatorship.Carr seemed to think that the victory of communism was inevitable, because it has so far proved successful. Therefore there was no point in condemning it. Within ten years of his death, the whole system collapsed under its own weight. We already knew that the system created by Lenin was a tyranny. Now we learned that it had developed feet of clay. Almost no-one regretted its death; and almost no-one now believes in the idea that Lenin was really one of the good guys. The Communist system which Stalin created was essentially Lenin's brainchildThere is no longer a place for a book like this in the modern world.

- Published on Amazon.com Format:Paperback This is the definitive source for an unbiased account of the Russian Revolution. Volume one of a three volume series, it covers the origins of the Bolshevik party to and through the taking of power in 1917. The most immediately apparent attribute to this work is its even handedness; this is the place to go if you want an account of what really happened, not the traditional right-wing or left-wing spin.
Brilliant introduction to the revolution that stopped World War One
- Published on Amazon.com Format:Paperback This is the first volume in Carr's monumental, 10-volume History of Soviet Russia. This brilliant introduction looks at the main lines of future development.Carr mentions `the bloodless victory of the revolution in October 1917'.Lenin defined the rule for party membership: "A member of the party is one who accepts its programme, and supports it both materially and by personal participation in one of its organisations." As Plekhanov wrote sensibly, "When we are told that social-democracy ought to guarantee full freedom of opinion to its members, it is forgotten that a political party is not an academy of science. ... Freedom of opinion in the party can and should be limited precisely because a party is a freely constituted union of men of like mind. Once identity of opinion vanishes, dissolution becomes inevitable." Carr sums up, "party members retained their freedom of action until, though only until, the party decision had been taken."Carr cites a revolutionary who said, "In the struggle which was necessary many guilty persons fell without the forms of trial, and, with them, some innocent. These I deplore as much as anybody and shall deplore some of them to the day of my death. But I deplore them as I should have done had they fallen in battle. It was necessary to use the arm of the people, a machine not quite so blind as balls and bombs, but blind to a certain degree." Who said this? Lenin? Che? No, the great American democrat Thomas Jefferson.When the Menshevik authorities fired on a workers' gathering, in 1918, Lenin commented, "When we use shootings they turn Tolstoyans and shed crocodile tears over our harshness. They have forgotten how they helped Kerensky to drive the workers to the slaughter, keeping the secret treaties hidden in their pockets."As Carr notes of the Social-Revolutionaries' attempted coup in May 1918, "the open revolt of the last considerable independent party had driven the regime a long step further on the road to the one-party state."The separation of powers is only relative in class society. The idea reflected the brief period of triple power in early 17th-century Britain, when the king wielded executive power, the aristocracy ran the House of Lords and the bourgeoisie ran the House of Commons. But with the Commonwealth, the state became unitary. The legislature, the executive and the judiciary were different tools doing the same job, keeping the ruling class in power. This is true of bourgeois as of working class dictatorship. The notion of a separate and independent judiciary is a myth; the Lord Chancellor has legislative, executive and judicial powers; law is always an instrument of state power. (See J.A.G. Griffiths, The politics of the judiciary.)Carr argues, "The very notion of a constitutional act implied in western thought a law to which the state itself was subject; this conception was incompatible with a doctrine which regarded law as a creation of the state." But this is undialectical: who makes the law? The people create both the state and the law. The people can apply to the state the laws they create.Carr points out that the phrase `dictatorship of the proletariat' specifies which class rules; it is neutral on the form of government. The dictatorship of the bourgeoisie is often wielded through a representative parliament. Dictatorship, in `dictatorship of the proletariat', does not necessarily mean the rule of one or a few.

Therefore there was no point in condemning it. Within ten years of his death, the whole system collapsed under its own weight. We already knew how tyrannical the monster was. Now we learned that it had developed feet of clay. There were very few who regretted its passing; and there are very few historians who would argue that Soviet communism was anything other than Lenin's creation.There is no longer a place for a book like this in the modern world. As Marx might have said, it ought to be relegated to the dustbin of history.Stephen Cooper

Emma Wilkinson was driving a 1970 Chevrolet C10
It hit a Volkswagon Polo around 120 miles east of Tyumen
Her co-driver Peter Davies suffered minor injuries in the crash
A man and child in the other vehicle also died in the collision
Published: 14:36 EDT, 12 June 2013 | Updated: 11:53 EDT, 13 June 2013
A British mother driving in the Peking to Paris rally has been killed in an horrific head-on crash on a Siberian motorway.
Emma Wilkinson, 47, died immediately when her 1970 Chevrolet C10 was hit by a Volkswagon Polo around 120 miles east of Tyumen.
Her co-driver Peter Davies suffered minor injuries in the crash in which a man and child in the other vehicle also died.
Mr Davies tried to rescue the woman rally driver who died on the spot, reported The Siberian Times.
He was last night said to be 'shocked'.
In a statement from the rally drivers organisers, it read: Emma 'was a fun loving, lively and popular member of the rally.
'In the three weeks we've been together both she and Peter proved themselves to be capable, competent and resourceful.
'Their 1970 Chevrolet C10 pickup was a remarkable sight in the the Mongolian wilderness and today our thoughts and sympathies are with Emma's family and friends including her two brothers Robert and Mark who are also with us.'
The statement added: 'The Rally Office are working with the Local Police, the Foreign Office and the British Embassy to offer the family whatever assistance is needed at this difficult time.'
Killer who raped and murdered Irish journalist Jill Meagher... 'My life was in turmoil': Detective uncle of murdered Jo...
It is understood close relatives have been informed.
Mangled: The 1970 Chevrolet C10 was smashed to pieces in the collision
Nikolai Sinegubov, a Russian rally participant in the rally, said: 'Her co-driver Peter Davies is in a state on an utter shock, as we all are.
PEKING TO PARIS: THE RACE
The Peking to Paris race is one of the longest and toughest challenges undertaken in a classic car.
The first race took place in 1907 and was entirely off road without maps, rules, passports or garages.
Competitors were all vying for the prize - a magnum of champagne and the glory.
The route starts in Beijing and hits Ulaan Baatar, Novosibirsk, Kiev, Krakow, Bratislava, Salzburg, Gstaad and Paris
The idea for the race came from a challenge published in the Paris newspaper Le Matin on 31 January 1907, which read: 'What needs to be proved today is that as long as a man has a car, he can do anything and go anywhere.
'Is there anyone who will undertake to travel this summer from Peking to Paris by automobile?'
'He was helping pull the cars away from each other in order to pull her out because she was stuck inside after the head-on crash.'
'The ambulance and the traffic police came very fast, and everyone rushed to help.'
The Russian said: 'She was driving when suddenly a Volkswagen car swayed off its lane and smashed right into their car.
'It was going at high speed, and one theory is the driver fell asleep.
'They were driving a Chevrolet C10 1970 which is a big, easy to see car.'
A Russian police spokesman confirmed: 'The driver of the Chevrolet car, a 46-year-old female resident of Great Britain, died.'
The Peking to Paris rally, starting at the Great Wall of China, is billed as the longest and toughest race anyone can drive in a vintage or classic car.
Participants crossed from Mongolia into Siberia earlier this week on the epic 9,317 mile odyssey from China to France.

The Sweet Hereafter (novel) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
First edition (publ. Harper Collins)
As most of the children are dead, the case now depends on the few surviving witnesses to say the right things in court. In particular, it is 14 year-old Nichole Burnell, who was sitting at the front of the bus and is now paralyzed from the waist down, and whose deposition is all-important. However, she unexpectedly accuses Dolores Driscoll, the driver, of speeding and thus causing the accident. When she does so, all hopes of ever receiving money are thwarted. All the people involved know that Nichole is lying but cannot do anything about it. Only her father knows why, but he is unable to publicly reveal his daughter's motives.
The novel captures the atmosphere in a small town suddenly shaken by catastrophe. Fathers take to drinking; secret affairs are abruptly ended; whole families move away. Only the reader/viewer knows that Mitchell Stephens, the lawyer, has himself effectively lost his own child—his estranged, drug-addicted daughter informs him over the phone that she has just tested HIV positive.
The book, written in 1991, was chosen in 1998 by Nancy Pearl, the then Director of the Washington Center for the Book at the Seattle Public Library, and Chris Higashi, the current Program Manager, to be the first selection for "If All Seattle Read

BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION This application is a continuation-in-part of application Ser. No. 681,829, filed Apr. 30, 1976, now abandoned.
This invention relates to apparatus and methods for recycling of metallic containers and, more particularly, to apparatus and methods for crushing containers of various materials, such as steel, aluminum, and glass and separating the materials.
During recent years, considerable effort has been devoted to the concept of recycling containers both from an ecological standpoint and from the standpoint of reducing material costs. Some success has been obtained, particularly in the aluminum container field. One of the problems in obtaining full success in a recycle program is the problem of obtaining the cooperation of the consumer in returning the containers to a container collection center. Another problem is providing apparatus and methods for collection of containers which make it as convenient as possible for the consumer to collect and return containers without having to separate containers of various materials and without having to spend much time in returning the containers. Another problem is providing low cost apparatus and methods for handling returned containers so as to make it economically feasible to collect and return containers to the container manufacturer for recycling of the container materials.
In the past, various apparatus has been designed for compacting metallic containers (see, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,356,122; 2,789,618; 2,844,184; 3,105,435; 3,504,621; 3,687,062; 3,749,004; 3,776,128 and 3,827,351) and for separating magnetic objects from non-magnetic objects (see, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 1,958,351; 2,964,184; 3,672,496; 3,892,658 and 3,926,792). For various reasons, however, the foregoing apparatuses have not been fully successful for the purposes herein disclosed.
The present invention is adapted to enable the consumer to collect containers of various materials in large quantities in any kind of collection device such as a trash can, trash bag, basket, box, etc. In addition, the present invention is adapted to crush the various containers to reduce the bulk of the containers and thereby facilitate handling and reduce shipping costs in returning the container materials for recycling. In addition, the present invention is adapted to receive a general collection of containers of various materials and separate the container materials. In addition, the present invention is adapted to reduce the cost of apparatus for crushing and separating containers to make the widespread use of such apparatus more economically feasible. In addition, the present invention is adapted to enable the use of such apparatus at various locations to promote the convenience of the consumer and to enable a number of retail or distribution outlets to use the same apparatus at different times.
In general, the apparatus and methods of the present invention involve a relatively large open hopper means for receiving a relatively large quantity of containers of various materials; a container crushing means for receiving containers by gravity feed from the hopper means and for crushing containers of various sizes, shapes, and materials; a conveyor and separator means for receiving crushed containers from the container crushing means by gravity feed and for transporting crushed containers to various collection apparatus while at the same time separating the crushed containers of various materials so that crushed containers of the same material are delivered to the same collection apparatus; a crushed container weighing means for determining the weight of crushed containers of a particular material to enable payment to the consumer for return of containers of the particular material and, in one preferred embodiment, a trailer means for movably supporting the entire system to enable transportation of the entire system to various locations.

DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTIVE CONCEPTS Referring now to FIGS. 1-5, in general, the system of the present invention comprises container crushing means 10 for crushing containers of various sizes and materials; container hopper means 12 mounted above the container crushing means 10 for receiving containers of various sizes and materials and for conveying the containers to the container crushing means by gravity feed; container agitator means 14 associated with the hopper means 12 for agitating the containers to prevent jamming of containers within the hopper means and enabling continuous feeding of containers to the container crushing means; elongated upwardly inclined container conveyor and separator means 16 for receiving crushed containers from the container crushing means and for conveying the crushed containers upwardly and outwardly from the container crushing means, while at the same time separating containers of various materials; crushed glass discharge means 18 for discharging crushed glass container materials; crushed steel container discharge means 20 for discharging crushed steel containers; aluminum container discharge means 24 for discharging crushed aluminum containers; crushed aluminum container collecting means 26 for collecting crushed aluminum containers; crushed steel container collecting means 22 for collecting crushed steel containers; weighing means 28 for determining the weight of crushed containers of a particular material, such as aluminum; motor means 30 for driving the container crushing means, the container agitator means, and the container conveyor and separator means; vertically standing housing means 32 for enclosing the system components; horizontally extending platform means 34 for supporting the system components; and, in one presently preferred form of the invention, trailer means 36 for transporting the system components from one location to another.
CONTAINER CRUSHING MEANS Referring now to FIGS. 1, 5 and 6, the container crushing means 10 comprises a pair of oppositely facing rotatable cone shaped members 40, 42 of similar size and shape. Each of the members 40, 42 has a relatively large diameter support plate portion 44 and a generally conically shaped container engaging side surface 46.
The support plate member 44 of cone shaped member 40 is fixedly mounted in a vertical position on horizontally extending rotatable drive shaft means 50 for rotation about a horizontal axis 52 provided by the drive shaft means. The drive shaft means 50 is supported in a fixed spacial orientation by suitable fixedly mounted bearing means 54, 56 for rotation of the drive shaft means within the bearing means. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the apex 58 of the generally conical surface 46 of member 40 is concentrically located with axis 52.
The support plate member 44 of cone shaped member 42 is mounted in an inclined position on a idler shaft means 60 for rotation about an inclined axis 62 provided by the idler shaft means 60. The axis 62 is inclined relative to both horizontal and vertical planes including axis 52 of drive shaft means 50. The shaft means 60 is supported by suitable bearing means 64, 66 for rotation of the idler shaft means within the bearing means. The bearing means 64, 66 are fixedly mounted on support plate means 68, which is, in turn, fixedly mounted on a pivotally movable support arm means 70 having a pivotal connection at 72 to support frame member 74. The shaft means 60 is thereby supported in a variable spacial orientation with respect to drive shaft means 50. A spring means, such as a relatively high strength coil spring member 76 attached at one end 78 to arm means 70 and at the other end 80 to support frame member 82, is provided for resiliently biasing the cone shaped member 42 toward the cone shaped member 40. The spring member 76 is preferably adjustable at one of its ends to permit variable tensioning of the spring member to obtain a desired degree of compaction of the containers. As shown in FIG. 5, the rotational axis 62 is vertically inclined at an angle of about 25� relative to a horizontal plane including axis 52 and, as shown in FIG. 6, the rotational axis 62 is horizontally inclined at an angle of about 15� relative to a vertical plane including axis 52. The arrangement is such that axis 62 is coincident with the apex 80 of the generally conical surface of cone shaped member 42 and the apex 58 of the generally conical surface of member 40.
Force transferring means, such as a layer of rubber-like coating material 48, for transferring force from the driven cone shaped member 40 to containers to be crushed in the container crushing means is provided on the container engaging side surface 46 of member 40, and may additionally be provided on the container engaging side surface 46 of the idled cone shaped member 42. The force transferring means may be embodied in any suitable structure which serves to transfer force from the cone shaped members to the containers to facilitate drawing of the containers through the crushing means, but preferably has a relatively high abrasion resistance to promote longevity of the force transferring means. In one illustrative form of a layer of rubber-like coating material 48, such as vulcanized rubber, the force transferring means is permanently affixed, as by adhesive bonding, to the side surfaces of the cone shaped members. In the illustrative embodiment of FIG. 8, the force transferring means may alternatively, and preferably, take the form of ribs or raised welds 47 on the container engaging side surfaces of the cone shaped members. As shown, a plurality of ribs 47 may be provided starting at apex 58 of the generally conical surface 46 of member 40 and extending, as shown in reference to illustrative rib 47A in plan view and relative to apex 58, radially outwardly initially along radial reference line 47B and then curved forwardly from reference line 47B in the direction of arrows 51, which correspond to the direction of rotation of the cone shaped member 40 in operation to form a forwardly facing concave raised rib structure 47C on the surface 46. The container gripping means of cone shaped member 42 may also take the form of ribs or raised welds of the pattern of FIG. 8 on surface 46 of cone shaped member 42, although the pattern of ribs 47 will be opposite to that on cone shaped member 40 when the members 40, 42 are oriented in the position of FIGS. 5, 6, providing for substantially continuous rib to rib contact of at least a portion of one of the ribs on member 40 with at least a portion of one of the ribs on member 42 when no containers are present between the members 40, 42, regardless of the relative orientation of members 40, 42. The aforedescribed presently preferred embodiments of the force transferring means are presented for illustration only, as it will be readily apparent that other embodiments, such as providing other coating materials, providing other rib or raised weld patterns, or other means for providing an irregular surface on the container engaging side surfaces 46 may be equally useful in the present invention to transfer force from the members 40, 42 to the containers. In addition, an outwardly projecting lug member 49 may be fixedly mounted on the container engaging side surface 46 of cone shaped member 40 for a purpose to be hereinafter further described. The lug member preferably has rounded edge surfaces to prevent damage to the layer of rubber-like material on the cone shaped member 42.
The cone shaped members 40, 42 define a variable width container receiving pocket means 90 therebetween. The size and shape of pocket means 90 is variable by pivotal movement of arm means 70 between a maximum inward position whereat portions of the force transferring means or surfaces 46 of the cone shaped members 40, 42 are in abutting engagement, as shown at 92 in FIGS. 5 and 6, and variably displaced outward positions (not shown) whereat the force transferring means and/or surfaces 46 are in variably spaced relationship.
A generally horizontally extending wedge shaped container guide member 94, having bottom edge surfaces 97, 99 extending generally parallel to the container engaging side surfaces 46 of cone shaped members 40, 42 when the members 40, 42 are in the maximum inward closed position, is provided in pocket means 90 to retain the containers in the pocket means and to guide the containers into the crushing apparatus as will be hereinafter further described. The wedge shaped container guide member 94 is fixedly mounted on hinged container guide plate 96, having a hinged connection 98 to container guide surface 100, and is resiliently retained in pocket means 90 by suitable spring means 102 having one end 104 attached to plate 96 and the other end 106 attached to support frame member 108. A handle member 111 having one end connected to plate 96 is provided through support frame member 108 and spring means 102 for manually removing container guide member 94 from pocket means 90 as required to clear jammed containers from the apparatus.
Shaft means 50 is rotatably driven by motor means 30, such as a conventional gasoline engine as depicted in FIG. 4 or a conventional electric motor, through drive means 110, such as a conventional chain and sprocket wheel elements 112, reducer 113 and a conventional clutch means 114. A manual clutch override means 116, comprising pivotally connected arm member 118, pivotally connected linkage member 120 and handle 122, is suitably connected to clutch means 114 to allow for manual disengagement of the drive means to stop the operation of the container crusher means, the container agitator means, and the container conveyor, and separator means.
The arrangement is such that when shaft means 50 is rotated by the motor means 30, the cone shaped member 40 is rotated therewith. Cone shaped member 42 is rotated by member 40 either by direct engagement between the force transferring means or the conical surfaces 46, or by indirect frictional engagement therebetween through containers located in pocket 90 during crushing of the containers.
CONTAINER HOPPER MEANS Referring now to FIGS. 1, 2 and 5, the container hopper means 12 comprises four vertically extending sheet metal upper sidewall members 130, 132, 134, 136 which are rigidly mounted on housing means 32. The upper sidewall members 130, 132, 134, 136 define a relatively large rectangular container inlet opening 138 at the upper end thereof. The hopper means further comprises four downwardly, inwardly inclined sheet metal lower sidewall members 140, 142, 144, 146, which are connected to the lower end of upper sidewall members 130, 132, 134, 136, respectively, and have lower edge surfaces 150, 152, 154, 156 which define a central relatively small container outlet opening 158. Lower edge surface 154 is inclined with respect to lower edge surface 150 in a horizontal plane including the lower edge surfaces and extends generally parallel to the angle of inclination of the conical surface 46 of the cone shaped member 42. The lower edge surfaces 152 and 156 are preferably of sufficient width to allow commonly encountered size containers to pass through outlet opening 158 without becoming lodged between lower sidewall members 140, 144. The outlet opening 158 communicates with the pocket means 90 by suitable downwardly, outwardly tapered duct members which define a guide chute means for guiding containers from the hopper means to the crushing means.
CONTAINER AGITATOR MEANS As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 5, the container agitator means 14 comprises a continuously rotatable horizontally extending drive shaft member 160, which extends through an opening 162 in lower sidewall member 140, having a flat rectangularly shaped blade member 164 fixed thereon and rotatable therewith. The agitator means is driven by motor means 30 through conventional drive means 161. Blade member 164 is located so as to be rotatable within outlet opening 158 to prevent jamming of containers between the lower edge portions of the lower sidewall members of the hopper means. Blade member 164 is preferably made of a resiliently flexible material, such as rubber, which permits flexing of the blade member to prevent puncturing of the metallic containers by the blade member and subsequent retention of punctured containers on the blade member.
THE CONTAINER CONVEYOR AND SEPARATOR MEANS Referring now to FIGS. 1-5, the container conveyor and separator means 16 comprises an endless belt member 170, made of a flexible material, such as rubber or canvas, having spaced cross plate members 172 thereon and being continuously movable in the direction of arrows 174, 176 between spaced guide and support members 178, 180. The belt member has an upper container conveying portion 177 and a lower belt return portion 179. The lower end of the belt member is mounted on drive shaft means 182, connected to the motor means 30 by suitable drive system 184, and roller means 186 mounted on the drive shaft means for rotation therewith. The upper end of the belt member is mounted on idler shaft means 188 and magnetic roller means 190, as will be hereinafter further described. The container crushing means 10 communicates with the lower end of the belt member 170 by suitable sheet metal duct work (not shown) providing crushed container guide means therebetween. Crushed containers are thrown onto the belt member from the container crushing means by centrifugal force and conveyed upwardly to the container discharge means 20, 24.
Referring now to FIGS. 1 and 7, the magnetic roller means 190 for guidably supporting the upper end of the belt member 170 is fixedly mounted on idler shaft member 188 for simultaneous rotation therewith and may comprise annular roller members 192, 194, 196, 198 of magnetic material, annular roller spacer members 200, 202, 204, 106, 208, 210 of magnetic conductive material, such as steel, and annular roller spacer materials members 212, 214, 216 of non-magnetic material, such as aluminum, although it is contemplated that other arrangements of magnetic materials may be equally useful. The annular roller members of magnetic material create a magnetic field about the magnetic roller means 190 so that as crushed containers of magnetic conductive material, such as steel, are carried along the belt member 170 and reach the magnetic roller means 190, the magnetic field retains the steel containers on the belt member until the steel containers are carried around and beyond the magnetic roller member to a position shown approximately at 220 in FIG. 1. At this point, the steel containers fall, due to the influence of gravity, from the belt member and are guided by crushed steel container discharge means 20, which may be a discharge chute made of a suitable material, such as sheet metal, into crushed steel container collecting means 22, such as a box, barrel or other collection apparatus. As crushed containers of non-magnetic material, such as aluminum, are carried along the belt member 170 and reach the magnetic roller means 190, the aluminum containers are unaffected by the magnetic field and are thrown off of the belt member 170 by its forward movement. The crushed aluminum containers are then guided by aluminum container discharge means 24, which may be a discharge chute made of suitable material, such as sheet metal, into crushed aluminum container collecting means 26, such as a box, barrel or other collection apparatus. In a presently preferred embodiment, aluminum container collecting means 26 is suspended from the container crusher and separation apparatus by a support arm member 222, which is rigidly mounted on the horizontally extending platform means 34, with a weighing means 28 interposed between the support arm member and the aluminum container collecting means. In this manner, the quantity of crushed aluminum container material processed by the apparatus may be directly determined for payment to the consumer bringing the container materials to the container crusher and separation apparatus. If desired, similar support structure and weighing means may be provided for the crushed steel container collecting means 22 for directly determining the quantity of steel containers in the crushed container material.
In the event that glass containers, or other foreign materials are introduced into the apparatus, through the hopper means 12 into the crusher means 10, the apparatus operator can engage the manual clutch override means 116 to shut down the container crusher means, the container agitator means and the container conveyor and separation means. Under normal operating conditions, the crushed glass material will have passed through the crusher means, onto the belt member and reached a position on the belt member intermediate its upper and lower ends by the time the movement of the belt member through the container conveyor and separation means is stopped. The crushed glass material may then be manually removed from the belt member through crushed glass discharge means 18, such as a hinged door member 230 in the container conveyor and separation apparatus housing 232.
Referring now to FIG. 3, belt member support and guide means, such as expanded metal support plate member 171, for supporting and guiding the belt member 170 in the container conveyor and separator means 16, extends between the container conveyor and separator sidewalls 178, 180 underneath the upper container conveying portion 177 of the belt member. The expanded metal support plate member 171 has passageways therethrough (not shown) which permit dirt and other foreign materials to pass through the support plate member and prevent the dirt and other foreign materials from accumulating around the belt member. A foreign material guide chute means for guiding the dirt and other foreign materials out of the container conveyor and separator means and into foreign material collecting means, such as collection pan 175, is formed by container conveyor and separator sidewalls 178, 180 and plate member 173 extending between the sidewalls 178, 180. The foreign material guide chute means extends the length of belt member between the upwardly and downwardly moving portions thereof and between the roller means 186 and the magnetic roller means 190, and communicates with the collection pan 175 by a suitable foreign material discharge passageway (not shown).
TRAILER MEANS In one presently preferred embodiment of the invention, the container crusher and separation apparatus as previously described is mounted on trailer means 36 for conveniently transporting the system components from one container collection location to another. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 4, illustrative trailer means 36 comprises rigid trailer chasis member 240, wheel members 242, 244, rotatably mounted on the chasis member for support thereof, front retractable support wheel member 246 for supporting the trailer means when the trailer means is not being transported from one location to another and retractable with respect to chasis member 240 for transportation thereof, trailer hitch coupling member 248 for suitable connection to apparatus for towing the trailer and rear retractable stabilizer members 250, 252 for stabilizing the trailer means when the container crusher and separation apparatus is in operation.
OPERATION In using the apparatus as previously described, the container crusher and separation apparatus is transported on the trailer means 36 to a consumer container recycling center, or the like. The trailer is then stabilized for operation of the container crusher and separation apparatus by extending front retractable support wheel member 246 and rear retractable stabilizer members 250, 252 into abutting, supporting engagement with the ground. Motor means 30 is then engaged to drive the container crusher means 10, the container agitator means 14 and the container conveyor and separator means 16. A quantity of predominately metallic containers, such as aluminum and steel beverage cans, is fed to the apparatus by placing or dumping the containers through container inlet opening 138 at the upper end of hopper means 12. The containers fall through the hopper means by gravity flow and are guided into the pocket means 90 of the container crushing means 10 by passing through container outlet opening 158 and the container guide chute means. The container agitator means 14 continuously rotates when the apparatus is in operation to assist the feeding of containers through the container outlet opening and to prevent the containers from becoming jammed in the lower portion of hopper means 12.
In the pocket means 90, the containers are drawn, by the rotation of cone shaped members 40, 42 and the forces created between the force transferring means or the container engaging surfaces 46 and the containers, toward the portion of the pocket means where the force transferring means or surfaces 46 of the cone shaped members are in abutting engagement, as shown at 92 in FIGS. 5 and 6. As the containers are drawn in between the cone shaped members, cone shaped member 42 is forced away from cone shaped member 40, by movement of the pivotally movable support arms 70 against the resistance of spring member 76, into variably displaced outward positions whereat the force transferring means or surfaces 46 on the cone shaped members are in a variably spaced relationship. The resistance of spring member 76 to outward displacement of cone shaped member 42 from cone shaped member 40 is sufficient to cause the containers to be crushed as they pass between the cone shaped members. The lug member 49 on cone shaped member 40 assists in drawing the containers, and particularly relatively smooth glass containers and liquid lubricated metallic containers, between the cone shaped members.
The crushed containers fall from the container crushing means into the lower end of belt member 170 of the container conveyor and separator means. The crushed containers are then carried upwardly along the inclined belt member by the movement of the belt member through the container conveyor and separator means. As the crushed containers on the belt member pass over the magnetic roller means 190, the containers made of non-magnetic materials, such as aluminum, not being affected by the magnetic field generated by the magnetic roller means, are thrown off of the belt member by inertial forces through the aluminum container discharge means 24 and into the aluminum container collecting means 26. The containers made of magnetic materials, such as steel, are retained on the belt member, due to forces present in the magnetic field, until the steel containers are carried around and beyond the magnetic roller means. The steel containers then fall from the belt member and are discharged through the steel container discharge means 20 into the crushed steel container collecting means 22. The quantity of crushed aluminum containers discharged into the crushed aluminum container collecting means is continuously weighed by weighing means 28 for convenient reimbursement of the consumer for the recyclable aluminum materials in the container materials processed by the system.
When it is desired to move the apparatus to a new location, front retractable support wheel member 246 and rear retractable stabilizer members 250, 252 are retracted from abutting engagement with the ground and trailer hitch coupling member 248 is coupled to suitable towing apparatus. The container crusher and separation apparatus may then be towed to a new location for crushing and separation of additional containers.
While the inventive concepts have been described in association with illustrative and presently preferred embodiments, it is contemplated that certain modifications will be apparent. It is intended that such modifications be included in the scope of the appended claims except insofar as precluded by the prior art.
