SPEED-RESPONSIVE REVERSING HYDRAULIC DRIVE FOR ROTARY SHREDDER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A hydraulic drive for a rotary shredder includes a rotation-actuated electric reversing con- trol. Such control includes a rotation sensor posi- tioned on one of the rotational elements of the drive: one of the cutter shafts, the hydraulic drive motor shaft or the hydraulic pump motor shaft. An RPM monitor circuit receives a signal from the rotation sensor and measures rotational speed to determine existence of a stoppage or slowing of the shaft corresponding to a jam- ming condition. This circuit monitors shaft speed over discrete time intervals and discriminates between momentary jamming conditions by determining the duration of low shaft speed conditions. The circuit transmits a jam signal to a reversal actuator circuit upon detection of a subnormal shaft speed persisting longer than the predetermined time interval. The reversal actuator cir- cuit includes a timer and reverse and forward solenoids on a flow-reversing valve for briefly reversing fluid flow to the hydraulic motor when a jam signal is received. Monitoring rotation at the pump motor enables the hydraulic fluid circuit, including a pressure relief valve, and the pump motor to filter out brief changes in rotation due to momentary jamming conditions and thereby aid in discriminating between true and momentary jamming conditions.
