Abstract

In a discharge portion liner attachment structure for a vertical shredder including a sweeper supported below a rotor in such a manner as to be coaxial with a rotation shaft, a discharge ring disposed on a circumference portion of the sweeper, and a discharge portion through which a shredding target object that has been swept out through an opening formed on a circumference wall of the discharge ring by a sweeping operation performed by the sweeper is discharged to outside, discharge portion liners are attached in such a manner as to protrude from a side of the discharge portion to a side of the discharge ring in such a manner as to cover edge portions of ones of the discharge ring liners on a side of the opening.

Claims (12)

1. A discharge portion liner attachment structure for a vertical shredder including a rotor that is supported on a rotation shaft rotating about a vertical axis and includes a shredding mechanism, a tubular shell that is disposed on an outer side of the rotor in a radial direction in such a manner as to be concentric with the vertical axis, a sweeper supported by the rotation shaft below the rotor, a discharge ring disposed around the sweeper, and a discharge portion through which a shredding target object that has been swept out through an opening formed on a circumference wall of the discharge ring by a sweeping operation performed by the sweeper is discharged to outside, the discharge portion liner attachment structure comprising:

discharge ring liners disposed on an inside surface of the discharge ring; and

discharge portion liners fastened in such a manner as to protrude from a side of the discharge portion to a side of the discharge ring in such a manner that each of the discharge portion liners covers a side edge of a respective discharge ring liner adjoining the opening, the side edge being a radial surface of the respective discharge ring liner closest to the opening, wherein

each of the discharge portion liners includes a thick portion disposed adjacent the side edge that protrudes further into the discharge portion than a remainder of the discharge portion liner, and

the thick portion includes a surface that continues from a surface of the corresponding discharge ring liner, the surface of the corresponding discharge ring liner being an inner radial surface of the corresponding discharge ring liner, and the surface of the thick portion includes a curvature that is the same as a curvature of the surface of the discharge ring liner.

2. The discharge portion liner attachment structure for the vertical shredder according to claim 1 , wherein the discharge portion liners each include:

a facing edge portion facing the edge portion of the discharge ring liners on a side of the opening in the pair of discharge ring liners.

3. The discharge portion liner attachment structure for the vertical shredder according to claim 1 , wherein the discharge portion liners each are attachable to both left and right edges of the opening by being flipped upside down.

4. The discharge portion liner attachment structure for the vertical shredder according to claim 1 , wherein an angle between left and right edges of the opening about the rotation shaft is less than 180°.

5. The discharge portion liner attachment structure for the vertical shredder according to claim 2 , wherein an angle between left and right edges of the opening about the rotation shaft is less than 180°.

6. The discharge portion liner attachment structure for the vertical shredder according to claim 3 , wherein an angle between left and right edges of the opening about the rotation shaft is less than 180°.

7. The discharge portion liner attachment structure for the vertical shredder according to claim 1 , wherein each of the discharge portion liners is fastened to a side wall of the discharge portion.
