Abstract
A feed hopper for a material processing device, in particular for a crusher (), having two side walls () and a rear wall of the hopper (), wherein the side walls () are directly or indirectly coupled to a machine support () in a swiveling manner and can be converted from a set-up work position to a folded-down transport position and back, wherein a feed area is formed between the side walls (), and wherein at least one of the side walls () is supported relative to the machine support () in the set-up work position by a supporting device (). A support lever (), which in the work position is supported directly or indirectly in relation to the machine support () by a detachable form-fit connection, wherein the form-fit connection prevents the side wall () from folding down, projects into the feed area in the folded-down transport position. In this way, a space-saving design is also achieved in the folded-down transport position.
