A bottom grate for a crusher for chipping or comminuting material which includes: support ribs each substantially perpendicular to the rotational axis of the crusher; grate blades mounted to the support ribs and substantially parallel to the rotational axis, wherein the grate blades are releasably mounted to the support ribs and the grate blades each have a cutting edge proximate to a cutting or crushing rotor in the crusher; pulling members extending between two of the support members, wherein the pulling members are in tension and the tension in the pulling members binds the blades in the support members.

Bottom grate of a crusher or drum chipper and method of producing the bottom grate

A rotary feeder for transferring loose material, said rotary feeder having a housing, where a rotor transfers material from the feed channel of the housing into the discharge channel of the housing, the rotor having blades for transferring the material, and a counter blade is fixed in the housing of the rotary feeder between the blades of the rotor for cutting oversized pieces of material. A filler is arranged in the feed channel of the rotary feeder, to prevent the formation of a protrusion in the feed channel that would disturb the flow of the material formed by the counter blade, the edge of the filler adjacent to the counter blade being arranged to yield, and the filler is arranged to return to its initial position after the cutting operation.
