An arrangement (38) for securing a vane wheel assembly (12) to a grinding table (18) of a pulverizer bowl mill (10), the grinding table (18) being rotatable about a bowl mill axis (BA) so as to co-act with a plurality of grinding rolls (22) to effect the pulverization of material and the vane wheel assembly (12) including a shroud sub-assembly having a plurality of vanes (50) each having a radially inner edge mounted to an inner shroud portion (46) and a radially outer edge mounted to an outer shroud portion (48), the vanes (50) being at circumferential spacings from one another so as to form channel passages (44) between circumferentially adjacent pairs of the vanes (50) through which air flows as the shroud sub-assembly rotates with the grinding table (18), the arrangement (38) being characterized by first securement means as herein described securable with the grinding table (18); and second securement means as herein described securable with the shroud sub-assembly, the first securement means and the second securement means cooperating together to retain the shroud sub-assembly in a retained relationship with the grinding table (18) for rotation of the vane wheels (50) with the grinding table (18) during rotation of the grinding table (18) and the first securement means and the second securement means movably engaging one another in a manner permitting free movement in a predetermined direction of at least a portion of the shroud sub-assembly relative to the grinding table (18) during rotation of the grinding table (18).
