Abstract
A shredder for crushing materials, such as sugar cane, has a housing and a hammer rotor rotatably mounted in the housing for cooperation with an anvil resiliently mounted in the housing. The anvil is journaled at each of its lateral ends to a respective guide rod which form an acute angle with the anvil proper. The other end of the guide rod is journaled to the housing. At least one spring biased pressure member is mounted to the housing and acts on the anvil so that an effective force component extends tangentially to the anvil curvature. Adjustable abutments mounted to the housing cooperate with the anvil to adjust a working gap between the hammer rotor and the anvil.
