Abstract
The invention relates to a rotor ( ) for a reducing machine. According to the invention, the protective caps ( ) covering the outer plates ( ) of the rotor ( ) are decoupled from the forces of the hammer axles ( ) and from the forces exerted directly on the outer protective caps ( ) by the hammers. The outer protective caps ( ) which are exposed to the lateral forces of the hammers ( ) encompass the outer edge of each of the plates ( ) with a web ( ) and encompass each of the inner steps ( ) of the plate ( ) with a projection ( ) in the shape of a ring segment. At the same time, these outer protective caps ( ) are mounted on the plate ( ) with a positive fit by means of a connecting element ( ) such as a hexagon socket screw. The outer protective caps ( ) which are adjacent to the inner protective caps ( ) are fixed to the outer plate ( ) with a non-positive fit, also by means of connecting elements ( ) such as hexagon socket screws ( ). A locking dog ( ) which is also fixed directly to the plate ( ) secures and limits the axial position of the respective hammer axle ( ) in the plate ( ).
