摘要

A device for collecting and feeding compaction material to a press, comprising a collection cart having a compaction material collection compartment, and a compaction material feed device, with which the cart can be docked. The cart has a floor and opposing side walls and the compaction material can be removed, by an upward lifting motion, from the cart by the feed device and then fed to the press. A web-type, flexible or articulated carrier element with a floor portion and at least two opposing wall portions, each having an upper free edge, is provided on or in the cart. The carrier element, in an initial position, has a U-shaped form running parallel to at least two opposing side walls and the floor of the cart, when the cart is docked with the feed device. The carrier element can be shortened or lifted at one of the free edges.
