A refuse handling system for transporting refuse from the lower end of a refuse disposal chute, for example, to a location adjacent the outer wall of a building. The system includes a straight elongate tubular chamber of substantially uniform cross section and open at one end. The chamber includes a refuse-infeed section in spaced relation to the open end and a refuse-compression section located closest to and communicating with the open end. A refuse infeed opening is provided in the wall of the chamber to the refuse-infeed section. A refuse conveying pipe having a larger cross sectional area than that of the chamber is connected to the open end of the chamber. The opposite end of the conveying pipe is connected to a remotely located refuse receiving station. A ram means is axially movable in the chamber to push the refuse from the refuse infeed section to the refuse compression section of the chamber, the ram means subsequently compressing the refuse in the refuse compression section and causing the refuse to pass into the refuse conveying pipe, through which the refuse passes to the remotely located refuse receiving station. |
