Abstract

A compactly unitized machine for shredding waste automotive vehicle tires or the like comprising a frame, a shredder, a shredded scrap receiving classifier, and an elevator for carrying oversized scraps rejected by the classfier back to the shredder; said frame, shredder, classifier and elevator are of such configurations and are so relatively arranged and supported upon said frame as to comprise a compactly unitized three-dimensionally minimally sized unit. The classifier per se is of improved construction and operating characteristics.
