English term

bridge breaker

English to German Tech/Engineering Engineering: Industrial
it is "rompiponte" in Italian, I am looking for this word in French, German, Spanish and Portuguese

This device is used when emptying silos, to prevent fine particles from agglomerating and building a bridge inside the discharge hopper and works with a rotor/paddles that, by turning, break this bridge (pls forgive my mistakes in English)
TIA!

Auflockerungseinrichtungen or Austragswelle

Two options, not sure which one applies to your context:
The first one is pretty general a term (1), the second one prevents bridging by an discharging material (2). I'm tempted to think this might be the right one because of the rotor/paddles you mentioned, but essentially, I'm guessing. Please note the low confidence level.
