WORN-OUT TYPE BREAKER DEVICE Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: processing of tyres with metal components. SUBSTANCE: device has high-voltage pulse generator and heat insulating housing to accommodate breaking unit. Housing is installed for engagement with end face surface of working reservoir through stop to get locked in extreme upper position. Device has base for mounting rotary hollow cylindrical axle with fitted on working reservoir, rotary drive and means to turn base relative to vertical axis and to tilt base relative to horizontal axis. Generator high-voltage terminal connected to upper element of breaking unit made in form of shaped electrode secured on heat-insulating housing through electric insulator. Generator low-voltage terminal is connected to working reservoir made of conducting material. Shape of radial ribs corresponds to shape of external surface of tyre to be broken. Each projection on electrode is made in form of point. All points are uniformly spaced in rows in line with radial ribs with clearance relative to edges to hold part of tyre cut along equator, and cooler. EFFECT: enlarged operating capabilities. 4 cl, 4 dwg
