US Patent:
5488911, Feb 6, 1996
Filed:
Nov 10, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/337677
Inventors:
Loren E. Riggin - Terrell TX
International Classification:
B61D 300
US Classification:
105240
Abstract:
A structurally reinforced railroad car is provided which interfaces with the output of a typical refuse compactor and is capable of being thus forcibly filled with compacted refuse which efficiently fills and conforms to the interior, making maximum volumetric use of the car for efficient transportation to a disposal site. At the disposal site, hydraulic cylinders of the car cause the lid assembly of the car to pivot upwardly, leaving one side and top open, while a powered ejection panel from within the car pushes the refuse toward the open side until it falls over the edge. The car is equipped with engagable seals for containment of leachant and liquids which may form or be present in the refuse.
