Abstract
An apparatus for preparing plant material, such as sugar cane, comminutes the material for further processing, for example, by cane mills or a diffuser. An upfront cutter (2) and a shredder (8) are immediately adjoining each other at the end of an adjustable speed conveyor (1). A material guide housing forms with its guide channel sections an inverted V-shape. One guide channel section reaches upwardly and extends over the discharge gap (6a) of the upfront cutter. Another guide channel section reaches downwardly to the shredder. An intermediate guide channel section interconnects the upwardly and downwardly reaching sections to form a closed guide channel construction. An upper channel wall portion remote from the upfront cutter and from the shredder forms an impact and deflection baffle (11c) for the precomminuted material ejected by the upfront cutter for feeding the material to the shredder. The apparatus is compact and assures a uniform material feed to the shredder.
