The invention discloses a large vertical shaft hammering type crusher, and relates to the technical field of crushers. The crusher comprises a crushing box, a transmission box is arranged in the crushing box, the front and rear sides of the transmission box are fixedly connected with mounting rods, the two sides of the mounting rods are fixedly connected with the front and rear side walls of the crushing box, and the top and bottom of the transmission box are rotatably connected with rotating columns. Crushing rods are hinged to the two sides of each rotating column, crushing hammers are fixedly connected to the sides, away from the rotating columns, of the crushing rods, elastic telescopic rods are hinged to the bottoms of the crushing rods, sliding grooves are formed at the sides, belowthe elastic telescopic rods, of the rotating columns, mounting blocks are slidably connected to the sliding grooves, and one sides of the mounting blocks are hinged to the elastic telescopic rods; andthe bottoms of the mounting blocks are fixedly connected with mounting columns, the bottoms of the mounting columns are rotatably connected with pulleys, double-shaft motors are fixedly connected with the positions, below the sliding grooves, in the rotating columns, and the ends of output shafts of the double-shaft motors are fixedly sleeved with cams. The crusher is simple in structure, reasonable in design, convenient to operate and use, good in crushing effect and high in working efficiency.
