A bale shredder is provided with a loading fork along a side of the shredder that will lift a first bale from the ground and move it into the shredder. The loading fork includes a support platform portion that is used for lifting and supporting a second bale with a first bale remaining in the bale shredding chamber, so that both bales can be transported to a location for shredding. The fork is operated by a single hydraulic cylinder that will tilt the bale into a position on a main support platform, and which has a slide plate that moves the bale closer to the chamber when the fork is tilted upwardly a sufficient amount. Further upward tilting causes the bale to tumble into the bale chamber for shredding.

A can crushing apparatus has an outer, bottomless drum housing, which is tubular and mounted on rollers to be freely rotatable, and a central inner roller which is mounted on the interior of the tubular drum, is urged against one side wall of the drum, and is power driven. Cans to be crushed are guided on a suitable guide into a nip between the roller and the outer drum, and are crushed as they pass between the roller and drum under spring load. Crushed cans will drop through the open bottom of the drum into a collecting bin or sack.

Can crushing machine

A modular drill frame construction which can assume configurations for standard seeding-drive fertilizer application, and with a modular section added, used for side banding of fertilizer, that is, depositing fertilizer between the normal rows of seed, and by merely changing a tool bar become a row crop planting with side banding option. The modular frame constructions are easily inserted, and the various components are easily removed and replaced for the particular configuration that the farmer wishes to use.

Drill frame construction

A machine for grinding large bales of forage material is provided with a cradle pivotably mounted on a frame. The cradle is movable to a lowered position in which lifting members can engage a bale of crop material lying on the ground. The cradle can be pivoted to a working position in which gravity directs the bale against a grinder. The discharge of the comminuted forage material from the grinder is controlled by an adjustable deflector. A conveyor urges the bale toward the grinder, and tends to rotate the bale to evenly grind or chop away the outer periphery of the bale.

A feed control grate to control the engagement of waste paper with a grinding cylinder in a tub type waste paper grinder, which can be raised to lift the paper away from the cylinder during start up or when excessive loads are encountered.
