Abstract
A manually adjustable blade assembly for an underwater pelletizer to enable radial adjustment and axial adjustment as well as maintaining parallelism of the blade assembly to the die cutting surface through the use of a shaft bearing support for the driven cutter blade assembly which enables accurate and positive adjustment of the rotating cutter blade assembly in relation to the cutting surface of a die in an underwater pelletizer. The shaft bearing support includes a screw-threaded adjustable bearing housing threaded into a bearing support plate having a base provided with vertical adjustment capability and lateral horizontal adjustment capability thereby enabling accurate axial adjustment of the cutting blade as well as radial adjustment and maintenance of parallelism between the cutting edges of the blades and the cutting surface of the die in an underwater pelletizer in a manner which maintains the cost at a minimum and provides a relatively uncomplicated structure to facilitate replacement of parts with the manual adjustment providing for longer blade life and flexibility for pelletizing various polymers.
