A refuse collector and compactor device comprising a housing to hold an exchangeable open topped bin and a compactor unit. The compactor unit comprises a frame, one or more upper pivot links, front pivot links and lower pivot links, said frame and pivot links connected to each other at pivot axes. The compactor unit furthermore comprises a press plate, an actuator and a motor. This compactor unit is adapted to impart to the press plate a vertical motion from an upper retracted position, in which the upper pivot links tilt toward the top of the housing, to a lower pressing position and vice versa for compacting refuse. The press plate is pivotally connected to the front pivot links, while the compactor unit further comprises one or more rear pivot links, substantially parallel to the front pivot links. Said one or more rear pivot links are connected at one end to said press plate and at the other end to said or to said one or more upper pivot links. Said one or more rear pivot links are adapted to impart to the press plate a motion from a tilted orientation in the retracted position, with the edge of the press plate closest to the front face of the housing elevated with respect to the edge near the rear face of the housing, to a substantially levelled orientation in the pressing position. |
