Patent attributes
A granulator mill has a mill housing which has an openable part and a fixed part, and an infeed hopper; the fixed part includes a rotor with a number of blades which co-operate with fixed blades in the mill housing; the openable part has a discharge section which is discrete from the interior of the mill housing by means of a grid which surrounds approximately 160° of the rotor and extends in beneath it; where the fixed part and the openable part are connected to one another by the intermediary of a pivot device with a vertical pivot axis and the end of the openable part facing away from the pivot axis is fixedly lockable in the fixed part at the journal box of the rotor and is centered there by a guide surface at the journal box and a guide surface on the openable part, the openable part is thus horizontally pivotal and may be opened manually; the infeed hopper is vertically pivotal about a horizontal axis and opened by means of a motor, where the infeed hopper and the openable part have mutually engaging locking means which lock the infeed hopper in the closed position when the openable part is closed.
