Assembly of a pellet press and a pellet breaking device mounted on the pellet press

An assembly of a pellet press and a pellet breaking device mounted on the pellet press, the pellet press comprising:

• a cylindrical outer wall comprising a series of radial through-holes with a predefined hole-diameter for radially and outwardly pressing the pellets from within the press towards and away from an outer circumferential contour of the pellet press,
• wherein the breaking device is shaped as a spiral encircling the pellet press at a predefined distance from the outer circumferential contour of the pellet press,
• wherein the spiral spans at least a part of the outer circumferential contour of the pellet press along an area that is provided with the through-holes,
• wherein the predefined distance between the spiral and the outer circumferential contour of the pellet press amounts to at least twice the pre-defined hole-diameter of the through-holes,
• wherein the spiral comprises consecutive windings that define open slots between the windings,
• wherein the slots are arranged to enable the pellets to escape through the slots,
• wherein the open slots between the windings of the spiral are arranged such that during operation of the pellet press the open slots receive the pellets and the windings are arranged to subsequently break the pellets growing out of the outer circumferential contour of the pellet press,
• wherein the consecutive windings of the spiral are embodied with obliquely slanting surfaces with respect to the outer circumferential contour of the pellet press,
• wherein the obliquely slanting surfaces are bordering the slots, and
• wherein the obliquely slanting surfaces of the consecutive windings of the spiral are arranged to narrow a line of sight between the windings in the radial direction away from the outer circumferential contour of the pellet press so as to prevent that pellets can escape through the slots unhindered in a straight line yet can escape through the slots following a bending and breaking motion of the pellets which occurs approximately at the outer circumferential contour of the pellet press.
