ABSTRACT:
A tub chopper and method of use wherein the tub is mounted at an angle of between 35 degrees and 50 degrees with respect to horizontal. The cylindrical sidewall of the tub is carried by a pair of powered rollers cooperating with a track so that a major component of the weight of the sidewall and material in the tub is applied radially to the rollers. A loading attachment is provided for depositing material in the tub. Chopping apparatus employing rows of conventional sickle sections, each inclined at an angle in at least two different directions from radial, is provided proximal the lower region of the V-shaped cavity between the stationary tub floor and rotatable sidewall. An adjustable curved gauge proximal the chopping apparatus controls the rate of feed of material into the apparatus. Baffle structure adjacent the chopping station directs currents of air to be filtered by chopped material in the material discharge conveyor.
