Abstract
Apparatus for grinding cereal grain involving means for controlling of grinding forces between a pair of cooperating grinding rolls, by regulating the actual grain receiving gap between the rolls during rotation thereof and in accordance with a preset desired dimension. A pair of parallel grinding rolls are mounted for movement of one roll relative to the other in a generally radial direction. One of the rolls is yieldingly biased toward engagement with the other roll. Adjustment mechanism is operative to limit movement of the bias roll toward said other roll and to establish said preset dimension or gap between the rolls.
