20090134253 | Shredder safety throat - The present invention relates generally to shredder openings or throats. Specifically, this invention discloses a shredder safety throat which helps prevent injuries by tapering inwards towards the center section of the throat such that fingers and/or other objects that are not meant to be shredded cannot reach the shredding mechanism. | 05-28-2009 |
20090134254 | Shredder safety interlock switch activation tab - The present invention relates generally to tabs that activate shredder safety interlock switches. Specifically, this invention discloses a break-resistant tab which can readily activate a shredder safety interlock switch. The disclosed tab is comprised of a tab extension with at least one flexing member or spring which allows for limited flexibility. | 05-28-2009 |
20090212145 | Collapsible shredder base - The present invention discloses a shredder base capable of collapsing into one flat piece in order to reduce the amount of space occupied when shipping or storing the shredder base. A shredder base having features of the present invention comprises four side walls with reinforcing members located at each upper corner of the shredder base. Each reinforcing members has a hinge which allows for the base to collapse and fold onto itself. The bottom wall of the shredder base has two upper support flaps and a lower folding bottom wall. In other preferred embodiments, a base frame is comprised of legs which are attached to a shredder housing support frame via hinges. The legs may also be connected to a bottom support for increased stability. | 08-27-2009 |
20100102154 | Shredder Waste Management System - The present invention relates generally to shredder waste management systems. Specifically, this invention discloses a shredder waste management system with a universal shredder waste bag that can be used in various sized shredders.

20090038437 | Stirring device for increasing capacity of trash bin - This invention discloses a stirring device for increasing the capacity of a trash bin. The lower portion of the trash bin has a stirring device that can stir shredded paper. The stirring device includes an actuator and a comoving element. The actuator is pivotally connected with the trash bin, with the pivotal point as the connecting position. The comoving element is fixed on the actuator and moves synchronously with it. When a force is imposed on the actuator, the comoving element performs a reciprocal motion using the pivotal axis as the supporting point. The comoving element stirs and flattens the shredded paper, thereby reducing the space between shredded paper and increasing the capacity of the trash bin. | 02-12-2009 |
20090179508 | SOUNDPROOF SHREDDER MOTOR - The present invention discloses a soundproof shredder motor. The motor includes a soundproof mask which surrounds the contact between the rotor and carbon brush. The soundproof mask includes an inner mask and an outer mask formed with holes arranged in an alternating fashion. The disclosed motor soundproof mask encloses the frictional interaction between the rotor and the carbon brush, thereby reducing the noise resulting from the contact. Additionally, since the mask is located near the noise source, it occupies a small space and is less expensive to manufacture. The mask also serves to contain sparks. | 07-16-2009 |
20100031832 | Can presser - The disclosed can presser has a movable pressing board between the front and back fixing boards of a frame. It further has a driving component to make the movable pressing board perform a reciprocal displacement between the front and back fixing boards. The can presser uses the space between the front fixing board of the frame and the moving pressing board as the empty can storage space. As the moving pressing board displaces toward the front fixing board to a stop point, the empty can is gradually squeezed to reduce its size. Finally, the driving component brings the movable pressing board backward toward the back fixing board for the squeezed empty can to be taken out. | 02-11-2010 |
20100059612 | POWER SAVING SHREDDER - The present invention discloses a shredder which does not waste energy in standby mode. Power is applied to the components of the shredder only when material to be shredded is inserted into the shredder throat or when the unit is switched into reverse to clear a jam in the shredder. | 03-11-2010 |
20120267461 | SHREDDER THAT PRODUCES CRINKLE PAPER STRIPES - The invention relates to a paper processing product and, in particular, to a shredder that crinkles paper stripes. The shredder has a shaft set driven by a motor. The shaft set includes at least two shafts rotating in opposite directions. Cutting blade sets are mounted on the shafts. Paper enters the entry of a paper passage formed by the shafts, and gets shredded into chips by the cutting blades. Since the exit of the paper passage is provided with a movable stopper, paper stripes are pushed by the rotating cutting blades to pass the stopper and become crinkled. The stopper is triggered to open by a certain force, letting the paper stripes fall. In addition to the functions of a usual shredder, the paper stripes thus made can be recycled. | 10-25-2012 |
