Abstract: Sound dampening swiveling lugs for food waste disposers, food waste disposers having sound dampening swiveling lugs, and methods of making food waste disposers having sound dampening swiveling lugs are provided. Sound dampening swiveling lugs may include a lug portion, a fastening post, and a sound dampening material on a contact surface between the fastening post and the lug portion. Food waste disposers include a grinding section with a rotating shedder plate that includes at least one sound dampening swiveling lug. Methods of making a food waste disposer include attaching a sound dampening material to a contact surface between the fastening post and the lug portion of a sound dampening swiveling lug.

Abstract: Waste disposer systems such as food waste disposer systems in which waste disposers such as food waste disposers are integrated with air switch assemblies, and related methods, are disclosed herein. In an example embodiment, a food waste disposer system includes a housing, a power control module, a motor, an actuator, an air conduction tube connecting the actuator at least indirectly with the module, and a power link. The module is configured to switch between having a first status and having a second status in response to a pressure change communicated through the tube as a result of an actuation of the actuator. Further, electric power received at the power link is communicated to the motor from the power link at least indirectly via the module when the module has the first status, but is not communicated to the motor when the module has the second status.
