A system and a method for receiving and feeding used beverage containers (UBC) uses at least one conveyer and a receptacle with a variable volume for receiving batches of UBC's. The batch receptacle has a small footprint. An annular rotating ring located at the upper edge of the receptacle circumscribes a piston when placed in the upper position. The receptacle has a receiving cylinder. The receiving cylinder has a piston, which is moved by at least one actuator. The system provides a very effective and very small receptacle for all kinds of packaging which has to be returned either for refill or for reuse of the material, or the system can be used for collecting highly polluting used articles such as batteries or other containers containing chemicals. The receptacle has a variable volume that can be filled up with UBC's. |
