Patent ID: 8500434

Claim:
A device for granulating plastic having a granulating head and having a drivable cutter head, which cooperates with a perforated plate and is arranged inside a housing, and which is movable along an axial guide made of guide spars and guide sleeves, in which each guide sleeve is displaceable onto each corresponding guide spar, and in which the cutter head is attachable to the granulating head via locking units, wherein the locking units comprise latching wedges mounted to be displaceable transversely to the guide sleeves, in which each latching wedge penetrates each corresponding guide sleeve and each corresponding guide spar in oblong holes in a locking position and is supported in a direction of a spar axis on opposing ends of the oblong holes, on one side on each guide sleeve and on the other side on each corresponding guide spar, so that the guide spars are drawn into the guide sleeves and an attachment flange of the housing is pressed against a flange attachment of the granulating head; wherein, each guide sleeve and each corresponding guide spar is arranged diametrically opposite to one another with respect to an axis of the cutter head so as to align the housing in relation to the granulating head when the guide sleeves are pushed onto the corresponding guide spars.
