[0025] In the description of this utility model, the use of "first" and "second" is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or the order of the technical features.

[0026] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2The shredder 100 of this utility model includes a blade box 101 and a blade shaft 102. A first bearing plate 104 and a second bearing plate 105 are disposed inside the blade box 101, with the first bearing plate 104 and the second bearing plate 105 arranged opposite to each other. The blade shaft 102 is rotatably mounted inside the blade box 101 via bearings mounted on the first bearing plate 104 and the second bearing plate 105. Along the axial direction of the blade shaft 102, a plurality of spacers 106 and a plurality of moving blades 107 are sequentially and spaced apart on the blade shaft 102 between the first bearing plate 104 and the second bearing plate 105. During assembly, the plurality of spacers 106 and the plurality of moving blades 107 can move along the axial direction of the blade shaft 102, thereby locking the spacers 106 and the moving blades 107 onto the blade shaft 102 by round nuts 109. Because there are multiple mating surfaces of moving blades 107 and spacers 106 on the cutter shaft 102, uneven gaps between the moving blades 107 and spacers 106, or even jamming between them, can easily occur during assembly. This makes it difficult to ensure the accuracy of the tightening torque of the round nut 109, and in severe cases, the round nut 109 may loosen during use. Furthermore, it is difficult to apply torque to the round nut 109, which often results in low installation efficiency and requires multiple adjustments during initial assembly or tool replacement for maintenance of the cutter shaft 102, seriously affecting production and maintenance progress.

[0028] Therefore, this utility model proposes a shaft end locking fixture 200 for easy installation of the shredder cutter shaft.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3The present invention provides a shaft end locking fixture 200 for easy installation of a shredder cutter shaft, comprising a fixture body 201, a connecting plate 209, and multiple bolts 211. The end face of the shredder cutter shaft 102 is provided with multiple threaded holes 103, arranged circumferentially along the end face. The fixture body 201 has a cylindrical structure, thereby forming a clearance cavity 208 within the fixture body 201. Along the axial direction of the cutter shaft 102, both ends of the clearance cavity 208 have openings communicating with the clearance cavity 208. The end of the cutter shaft 102 located outside the cutter box 101 of the shredder 100 can pass through one of the openings, allowing the end of the cutter shaft 102 to pass through. The tool body 201 is housed in the relief cavity 208, and the end edge of the opening can abut against the bearing spacer 108 of the cutter shaft 102. The connecting plate 209 is located at one end of the tool body 201 away from the bearing spacer 108 and is used to connect with the end edge of the other opening of the tool body 201. The connecting plate 209 is provided with multiple through holes 210, and the through holes 210 are correspondingly provided with threaded holes 103. Multiple bolts 211 are used to pass through the corresponding through holes 210 and can be threaded to the corresponding threaded holes 103, so that when the tool body 201 is fixed to the cutter shaft 102, the bolts 211 can make the end edge of the tool body 201 close to the opening of the bearing spacer 108 press against the bearing spacer 108.

[0030] When assembling the cutter shaft 102 of the shredder 100, the spacer 106 and the moving blade 107 are sequentially and alternately fitted onto the cutter shaft 102, and bearings are installed at both ends of the cutter shaft 102. The cutter shaft 102 is then assembled onto the cutter box 101, and one end of the cutter shaft 102 is limited. A round nut 109 is threaded onto the other end. The shaft end locking fixture 200 of this invention is then assembled to the end of the cutter shaft 102. That is, the fixture body 201 is inserted along the end of the cutter shaft 102, and the connecting plate 209 is assembled to the end of the cutter shaft 102 using bolts 211, so that the connecting plate 209 presses against the fixture body 201. The end edge of the fixture body 201 away from the opening of the bearing spacer 108 presses against the bearing spacer 108. Continue to tighten the bolts 211 so that the fixture body 201 presses the bearing spacer 108 tightly. The moving cutter 107, the spacer 106 and the bearing are pressed together one by one through the bearing spacer 108, eliminating the problem of uneven gaps between adjacent moving cutters 107 and spacers 106 and between spacers 106 and bearings. Then tighten the round nut 109. Finally, disassemble the shaft end locking fixture 200 to complete the locking of the cutter shaft 102 and complete the torque control of the round nut 109.

[0031] The shaft end locking fixture 200 of the shredder cutter shaft installation of this utility model can ensure the accuracy of the tightening torque of the round nut 109, which greatly improves the installation and cutter replacement efficiency of the cutter shaft 102, and ensures the tightening torque of the round nut 109, thereby improving the stability of the equipment.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 In some embodiments, the tooling body 201 is cylindrical in shape. A first process hole 203 is provided on the side wall of the tooling body 201 near the bearing spacer 108. The first process hole 203 is used for the tool for fastening the round nut 109 on the cutter shaft 102 to extend into. After the bearing spacer 108 is tightened by the shaft end locking tooling 200, the moving cutter 107, the spacer 106 and the bearing are tightened one by one, and then the tool for tightening the round nut 109 is inserted into the first process hole 203 to tighten the round nut 109.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 In some embodiments, through holes 210 are circumferentially distributed on the connecting plate 209 around the axis of the tooling body 201, and correspondingly, multiple threaded holes 103 are circumferentially distributed on the end face of the cutter shaft 102. Thus, by sequentially aligning and tightening the bolts 211, the gap between the moving cutter 107 and the spacer 106 can be continuously adjusted during the tightening process, greatly improving installation efficiency.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 In some embodiments, the connecting plate 209 and the tooling body 201 are separate structures to facilitate the assembly of the shaft end locking tooling 200 on the cutter shaft 102.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 In some embodiments, the tooling body 201 includes a first cylinder 202 and a second cylinder 205. The first cylinder 202 is close to the bearing spacer 108, and the second cylinder 205 is close to the connecting plate 209. The first cylinder 202 and the second cylinder 205 have different lengths. Along the axial direction of the tooling body 201, the first cylinder 202 can be connected to the second cylinder 205. After connection, the first cylinder 202 and the second cylinder 205 can be used in conjunction with the connecting plate 209. Moreover, the first cylinder 202 and the second cylinder 205 can be used individually with the connecting plate 209. That is, the first cylinder 202 and the second cylinder 205 can be used alone, or the first cylinder 202 and the second cylinder 205 can be used in combination. Thus, the assembly of the cutter shaft 102 can be satisfied even when the length of the cutter shaft 102 extending out of the bearing plate of different shredders 100 is different.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3In some embodiments, a first process hole 203 is provided on the side wall of the first cylinder 202 near the bearing spacer 108, and a second process hole 207 is provided on the side wall of the second cylinder 205. When the first cylinder 202 is used alone with the connecting plate 209 and when the second cylinder 205 is used alone with the connecting plate 209, a tool for tightening the round nut 109 can be inserted through the first process hole 203 or the second process hole 207 to tighten the round nut 109.

[0037] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first cylinder 202 is provided with a first step 204, and the second cylinder 205 is provided with a second step 206. The first step 204 is used to overlap the second step 206, thereby facilitating the assembly of the first cylinder 202 and the second cylinder 205 when used together.

[0038] It is understood that in some embodiments, the connecting plate 209 and the tooling body 201 may adopt a fixed connection structure, which is not limited here.

[0039] It should be noted that the tooling body 201 can also adopt other structural forms besides cylindrical shape, as long as one end of the tooling body 201 can abut against the bearing spacer 108.

[0040] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0041] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
