Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2475447A] A shredder 10 carried below bin lid 11 disintegrates waste to reduce its volume. Preferably the apparatus includes hammers 31 pivotally attached to a hub which rotate about a motor 27 spindle 28 within chamber 12. The motor may be mounted on the top of the chamber which can be angles relative to the lid. The chamber is ideally fed by an eccentrically mounted chute 30 which protrudes through the lid. The outlet of the chamber preferably projects into a wheelie bin 43 for receiving glass chips 54 from bottles. A further claim relates to a stand 23 to hold a bin lid 11 including a waste processing means 10. The stand removes the lid from the bin when a particular weight of waste has been gathered, and thus stops a transducer supplying power to the motor.
