Specifically, the grinding components 3 each comprises a through hole in the center for receiving the roll shaft 2, the inner diameter of the through hole being fitted for an outer diameter of the roll shaft 2. Preferably, the grinding components 3 are mounted on the roll shaft 2 through key connections. In other embodiments, the grinding components 3 are connected to the roll shaft 2 using some other shaft connections. Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the grinding component 3 each comprises a grinding frame 4 and grinding blocks 5. The grinding frame 4 is provided with grooves 6 for receiving the grinding blocks 5. The grooves 6 are disposed at a peripheral part of the grinding frame 4 and are spaced at equal intervals along a circumferential direction. The grinding blocks 5 each comprise a grinding surface 7 and a threaded hole 8 located in the center, the threaded hole 8 being configured for mounting one of the grinding blocks 5 in one of the grooves 6. Hence the shape and number of the grinding blocks 5 should match those of the grooves 6. It should be noted that the grinding blocks 5 can adopt any kind of material with a grinding function according to application requirements.

(14) Preferably, for convenient replacement and disassembly, the grinding blocks 5 are connected to the grinding frame 4 through bolted connections. And for removing scraps efficiently, the grinding blocks 5 are arranged in the grooves 6 such that the grinding blocks 5 protrude from the grinding frame 4, i.e., the height of the grinding surface 7 with respect to a bottom surface of the groove 6 is greater than that of a top surface of the groove 6. In order to further facilitate chip removal, the grinding blocks 5 each is provided with an evacuating groove 9, and the evacuating groove 9 is preferably in the shape of a cuboid strip, (as shown in FIG. 3), and other shapes may also be used, which is not limited thereto.

(15) Preferably, the grinding frame 4 is in a shape of a circular truncated cone with a relatively large diameter on one side and a relatively small diameter on the other side. The grooves 6 each extends along an axial direction and a radial direction with respect to the roll shaft 2. An included angle between one of the grooves 6 and the roll shaft 2 is in the range of 0-80°.

(16) It should be noted that the grinding roller A1 of Embodiment 1 is mainly used when crushing the waste tires into powder products, and the shapes of the grinding frame 4, the grinding blocks 5, and the grooves 6 can be flexibly selected and adjusted depends on situations. A preferred shape shown in FIG. 1 is selected only for the illustration of this embodiment. Moreover, besides the preferred bolt connections, the grinding blocks 5 can be connected to the grinding frame 4 by other methods. For other embodiments, the grinding block 5 may not be provided with an evacuating groove.

Preferred Embodiment 2

(17) FIG. 4 shows a structural sketch view of the grinding roller A2 in embodiment 2 of the present invention. The grinding roller A2 of this embodiment is mainly used to crush waste tires into block products. Like the grinding roller A1 in embodiment 1, the grinding roller A2 comprises a roll shaft 2 and grinding components 3 arranged on the roll shaft 2, the grinding components 3 each comprising a grinding frame 4 and grinding blocks 5. The difference between the grinding roller A1 in embodiment 1 and the grinding roller A2 in embodiment 2 is that, the grinding roller A2 further comprises axial interval adjusting rings 10 that are configured for separating the grinding components 3 at a predetermined distance.

(19) About Crusher

Preferred Embodiment 3

(20) As shown in FIG. 6, the present invention discloses a crusher B1 for waste tires, comprising a grinding roller A1 and a box. The top of the box is provided with a cover plate 11. A support plate 17 is connected to the cover plate 11 and is oblique with respect to the cover plate 11, along which the waste tires enter the box. The box further comprises a material inlet I and a material outlet O. And preferably, the material inlet I and the material outlet O are located at positions diagonal to each other in the box. As shown in FIG. 6, the material inlet I is in the upper right part of the box, and the material outlet O is in the lower left part of the box. In other embodiments, the material inlet I and the material outlet O can be positioned in other parts of the box.

(21) The main features of the crusher B1 in this embodiment lie in that a first pushing mechanism 12 is disposed on a first side of the box and is configured for pushing the waste tires toward the grinding roller A1, and a second pushing mechanism 13 is disposed on a second side of the box and is configured for pushing the cover plate 11. Further, a pushing plate 16 is disposed on the first pushing mechanism 12, for pushing waste tires toward the grinding roller A1. The first pushing mechanism 12 and the second pushing mechanism 13 are pushing mechanisms that are regularly used in the field of hydraulic cylinders or similar fields.

(22) Referring to FIG. 6, the crusher B1 is mainly applied for crushing waste tires into powder, and the grinding roller A1 (shown in FIG. 1) containing no axial interval adjusting rings is employed. Gaps between the grinding roller A1 and a top or a bottom of the box usually result in deficient crushing, leading to large particle sizes that are unwanted. Preferably, for more sufficient crushing, axial blockers 14 extending along an axial direction of the grinding roller A1, are arranged between the grinding roller A1 and a top of the box and between the grinding roller A1 and a bottom of the box (i.e., the upper and lower positions.) The axial blockers 14 are engaged with the grinding roller A1 (as shown in FIG. 8) to form a relatively sealed crushing space, thereby improving the crushing efficiency. In this case, waste tires are conveyed into the box of the crusher B1 through the material inlet I, the material inlet I is closed by the cover plate 11 driven by the second pushing mechanism 13, the waste tires are pushed toward the grinding roller A1 at a predetermined speed by the first pushing mechanism 12, and the crushing products (in powder) are released from the crusher via the material outlet O.

(23) It should be noted that if the waste tires are required to be crushed into blocks, the grinding roller A2 (shown in FIG. 4) is employed in the crusher B1, which is provided with axial interval adjusting rings 10. In this case, the axial blockers 14 are no longer needed. In addition, although the crusher B1 as shown in FIG. 6 uses a single grinding roller, i.e., merely a single grinding roller is applied, two or more grinding rollers can be employed based on practical crushing requirements in other embodiments where the size of waste tires is relatively larger. Preferably in that condition, the two or more grinding rollers can be engaged with each other and aligned in an up-and-down array or other forms of arrays according to actual working conditions.

Preferred Embodiment 4

(24) FIG. 7 shows a structural sketch view of the crusher B2 in embodiment 4 of the present invention. The main difference between the crusher B2 and the crusher B1 lies in that the crusher B2 is not provided with the pushing mechanism 12, which is employed in the crusher B1. In the crusher B2, the waste tire falls by gravity into the box through the material inlet I on a top of the box. After the crushing work is finished, the crushed products are release from the box via the material outlet O on a bottom of the box. Additionally, in the case where the crusher B2 is applied to crush waste tires into powder, the grinding roller A1 without an axial interval rings 13 (as shown in FIG. 1) would be used, and axial blockers 14 would be installed and located in different positions from the blockers 14 in the crusher B1. Specifically, the axial blockers 14 in crusher B2 of this embodiment, are disposed on a left side and a right side of the grinding roller, i.e., the axial blockers 14 are arranged between the grinding roller A1 and a left side plate of the box and between the grinding roller A1 and a right side plate of the box, extending along the axial direction of the grinding roller A1. The axial blockers 14 are engaged with the grinding roller A1 (as shown in FIG. 8) to form a relatively sealed crushing space, thereby improving the crushing efficiency. Moreover, an arc-shaped plate 15 is provided below the axial blockers 14, and the crushing products are collected at the material outlet O through the arc-shaped plate 15.

(25) It should be noted that the crusher B2 can employ the grinding roller A2 provided with axial interval adjusting rings (as shown in FIG. 4) when used to crush waste tires into blocks. In that case, the axial blockers 14 would not necessarily be required. Further, although the crusher B2 as shown in FIG. 7 adopts a single-roller form, i.e., merely a single grinding roller is employed, it can be modified into a double-roller form (with two grinding rollers) or a multiple-roller form (with multiple grinding rollers) according to actual working conditions and in the case where the size of waste tires is relatively larger. Preferably in that condition, the two or more grinding rollers can be engaged with each other and aligned in a left-and-right array or other forms of arrays as specifically required.

(26) Regarding the section about crusher, in addition to the components as mentioned above, a crusher can also include a cooling medium mechanism and/or a recovery mechanism, which can be conventionally selected according to actual working conditions. And they will not be described here as they are not part of the inventive points of the present invention.

(27) The embodiments as set forth merely describe the preferred embodiments of the technical solutions of the present invention, and do not limit the scope of this invention. Various modifications and variations made to the technical solutions of this invention by one ordinarily skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit disclosed by the appended claims of the present invention, shall all fall in the protection extent of the claims of present disclosure.
