ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for shredding, crushing and grinding solid waste material for eventual waste disposal in which two interacting stacks of shredding members are mounted on substantially parallel shafts and are positioned in transverse arrangement with respect to the direction of waste material introduction into the comminutor apparatus. A shredding member of each stack interacts with a shredding member on the other stack whereby the shredding members cooperatively interact in pairs within the comminutor. In some applications, the minimum clearance distance between the teeth of a cutting element with an opposing spacer in a pair of interacting shredding members differs as between different ones of the pairs of interacting shredding members. Teeth are provided on at least one member of each pair of shredding members for cutting in both directions of rotation. The shaft of one of the stacks is driven through a gear reduction system in order to reduce noise and power requirements for operation. The shaft may be driven in either direction of rotation so that the teeth of the shredding members may be driven to cut in either direction.
