[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Embodiments of this utility model:

[0027] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a two-stage shredder includes a frame 1 and a primary shredding chamber 2 fixed on the frame 1. The primary shredding chamber 2 is equipped with a primary shredding blade assembly. The upper end of the primary shredding chamber 2 is equipped with a primary feed hopper 21, and the lower end is equipped with a primary discharge port.

[0028] The primary shredder assembly includes a first cutter shaft and a second cutter shaft arranged in parallel, with the axes of the first and second cutter shafts both on the same horizontal plane. Each of the first and second cutter shafts is equipped with multiple primary shredder blades 22, which are arranged alternately on their respective shafts. During rotation, the outer edge of the primary shredder blade 22 on the first cutter shaft can be positioned between two adjacent primary shredder blades 22 on the second cutter shaft, thereby achieving the purpose of shredding the material.

[0029] The primary shredder 22 includes a blade plate with a central shaft hole for mounting on a corresponding blade shaft. The outer periphery of the blade plate is provided with a plurality of teeth 221 spaced apart, which can be four, five, or other numbers. The teeth 221 have a V-shaped structure. The primary shredder 22 can be found in the applicant's prior patent CN221157032U.

[0030] The first cutter shaft and the second cutter shaft are driven by the first motor 31 and the second motor 32, respectively. The speed can be reduced by a reducer or by a geared motor. They have the characteristics of low speed and high torque. The first motor 31 and the second motor 32 are located on both sides of the first-stage shredding chamber 2.

[0031] Below the primary shredding chamber 2 is a secondary shredding chamber 51, fixed to the frame 1. The secondary shredding chamber 51 contains a secondary shredding blade assembly, and its upper end has a secondary feed hopper corresponding to the primary discharge port. The shredded material falls into the secondary feed hopper and is further shredded by the secondary blade assembly. The secondary shredding chamber 51 has a secondary discharge port to discharge the final material. Below the secondary shredding chamber 51, a belt conveyor can be connected to transport the material to other locations.

[0032] The secondary shredder assembly includes a main blade shaft 54 ​​and several secondary blade shafts 56. In this embodiment, four secondary blade shafts 56 are designed. Each secondary blade shaft 56 is spaced apart circumferentially around the main blade shaft 54. The main blade shaft 54 ​​has several discs 55 arranged along its axial direction, and the secondary blade shafts 56 are fixed to these discs 55 for support. Each secondary blade shaft 56 has multiple secondary shredders 53 arranged sequentially. The secondary shredders 53 on the same secondary blade shaft 56 are arranged sequentially along a straight line, while the secondary shredders 53 on adjacent secondary blade shafts 56 are staggered.

[0033] The secondary shredder 53 adopts a rectangular plate structure.

[0034] The main cutter shaft 54 ​​is driven by the third motor 4, with a belt drive mechanism in between. The third motor 4 is located on the outside of the secondary shredding chamber 51.

[0035] The lower part of the secondary shredding chamber 51 adopts a semi-circular screen 52, and the multiple screen holes of the screen 52 serve as the secondary discharge port. The screen 52 is welded together from several arc-shaped plates 521 and multiple round tubes 522, which can be solid or hollow. The arc-shaped plates 521 are spaced apart in a direction parallel to the main cutter shaft 54, and the round tubes 522 are sequentially inserted through the arc-shaped plates 521. The multiple round tubes 522 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the arc-shaped plates 521.

[0036] The above-mentioned two-stage shredder assembly has a single main cutter shaft, but a dual main cutter shaft configuration can also be used, as follows:

[0037] like Figure 7 As shown, the two-stage shredder assembly includes a first main blade shaft 61 and a second main blade shaft 62 arranged in parallel. The first main blade shaft 61 has four first auxiliary blade shafts 63 spaced apart in the circumferential direction, and the second main blade shaft 62 has four second auxiliary blade shafts 64 spaced apart in the circumferential direction. Each auxiliary blade shaft is sequentially equipped with multiple secondary shredder blades 53, and the secondary shredder blades 53 on adjacent blade shafts are arranged in a staggered manner. In this embodiment, the distribution of the main and auxiliary blade shafts, and the structure of the secondary shredder blades 53, are the same as in the previous embodiment.

[0038] The first main cutter shaft 61 and the second main cutter shaft 62 are driven by different motors. The dual-main-shaft two-stage shredder assembly produces smaller shredded material compared to a single-main-shaft two-stage shredder assembly, thus meeting different user needs. The shredder in this embodiment is primarily used for shredding straw and rice straw, but it can also be used for shredding other materials.
