Abstract
A shielded conveyor apparatus for use with a shredder machine to transfer shredded material. The conveyor apparatus includes a base supporting an inclined ramp with a bottom inlet and a top discharge. A conveyor belt, driven by a motor positioned adjacent the top discharge, is shielded along its length by a cover and viewable through sight glasses. The belt is formed with opposed side walls and spaced barrier walls extending from its surface to define material-carrying pockets that control the quantity of material transported while preventing spillage during rotation. The conveyor couples to a shredder machine housing one or more sets of shredder teeth driven by motors to process objects of varying sizes, including hard drives, solid state drives, CDs, and USB cards. Shredded material exits the shredder through a chute and enters the conveyor inlet for controlled transfer to a discharge or collection bin.
