Paper shredder

A paper shredder is used to shred abandoned documents and papers to prevent disclosing confidential information or trade secrets, and the paper shredder is used extensively in industry and commerce. A paper shredder generally comprises a pair of blade shafts in a shredder housing, the shafts having rotating blades into which the paper or other sheet material carrying information is fed so that the information carrier will be cut up into strips and collected in a bin, chamber or other collector with which the cutting assembly is associated. As paper is fed between the counter-rotating rollers, the interleaved curing elements cut or tear the material into longitudinal strips using a scissor-like action. Paper shredders for shredding incorporate plural cutting blades and spacers passing through rotary shafts that are driven to rotate towards each other by a motor and gear box so as to shred paper passing through the rotary shafts into strips by shear forces. Shredders can be classed into two types, the stripe-cut shredders and crosscut shredders, according to the machine cutting style.
