Abstract:
The invention relates to a crusher unit (10), in particular an impact crusher, having an impact rotor (11), having at least one swivel-mounted impact rocker (20), wherein a crushing gap (15) is formed between the impact rotor (11) and the impact rocker (20), wherein the impact rocker (20) can be swiveled along an adjustment path by means of at least one gap-adjusting means (30) to set a gap width of the crushing gap (15), wherein the impact rocker (20) is mounted such that its weight force acts in the direction of a reduction of the crushing gap (15). For a high degree of operational safety, the crushing gap can be readjusted during operation in that at least one retaining device (50) is provided, which uses a retaining force to flexibly counteract a swiveling of the impact rocker (20) in the direction of the impact rotor (11). The invention also relates to a method for setting the crushing gap (15) of a crusher unit (10).
Abstract:
The invention relates to an overload protection device for the hydraulic system of a mineral material machining plant, in particular for a rotary impact crusher, a jaw crusher or the like, wherein a hydraulic element equipped to store and/or convey a hydraulic fluid is provided, wherein the hydraulic element comprises a connection area (95) having a passage opening for hydraulic fluid of the hydraulic system, wherein the passage opening is covered by a replaceable burst panel (100), wherein a burst panel holder (96) is disposed on the rear face (101) of the burst panel (100) facing away from the connection area (95), and wherein at least one fastening bolt (97) is passed through a bolt mount (96.4) of the burst panel holder (96) and through a drilled hole (103) of the burst panel (100) disposed in alignment therewith and is bolted into a threaded mount of the connection area (95) in such a way that in the assembled state the burst panel (100) is held clamped between a pressure surface (96.2) of the burst panel holder (96) and a connection surface (95.1) of the connection area (95). To make provision for an easy maintenance after an overload event for such an overload protection device, provision is made in accordance with the invention that at least one retaining element (98) is provided, which, in a dismantling position, holds the burst panel holder (96) to the hydraulic element, in particular at the connection area (95), when the at least one fastening bolt (97) is unbolted from the threaded mount of the connection area (95) and the burst panel (100) is removed.
Abstract:
An impact crusher for mineral material includes a crusher housing, a reversible rotor arranged in an impact-grinding space of an impact mechanism for propelling mineral material against wear members in the crusher housing; and an adjustment installation setting a spacing of the impact mechanism from the rotor. An upper impact space adjoins the impact-grinding space at the top and has an entry opening for the mineral material. The upper impact space has an upper height region that neighbors the entry opening, a central height region that adjoins the upper height region, and a lower height region that is contiguous to the lower impact-grinding space, with the central height region being a region having a largest internal width and at a widest location thereof, which is above a crushing circle of the rotor, has a maximum width which is larger than a diameter of the crushing circle of the rotor.
Abstract:
The impact shield (9, 10) carries a plurality of armor bodies (16) of a strongly wear resisting material. The armor bodies (16) are fixed horizontally in succession on a front side of the impact shield by a fixing element making it possible to detach them from the impact shield (9, 10) for their replacement. The impact shield (9, 10) is composed of a fixed part (21) connected to the frame (2), and a removable part (22) carrying the armor bodies (16) and making it possible to remove simultaneously all the armor bodies, fixed on the same, out of the grinding chamber (3). At least one such impact shield (9, 10) is arranged in a grinding chamber (3) of an impact grinding mill including a frame (2) further including a horizontal-axis rotor (6) provided with impactors (7) arranged regularly around its periphery.
Abstract:
The mill includes a milling chamber (1) containing a rotor (2) provided with hammers (4), and at least one impact screen mounted pivotably with the aid of an adjusting jack in order to move the bottom end of the screen toward or away from the rotor so as to define, between the bottom end of the screen and the free end of the hammers, a spacing which determines a given particle size. The mill includes a device for positioning the rotor that includes indexing elements for positioning the end of one of the hammers as close as possible to the screen for adjusting the spacing. It includes a geared motor driving a pinion capable of engaging with a toothed wheel fixed in rotation to the rotor so as to rotate it from a rest state until one of the hammers is as close as possible to the screen.
Abstract:
An apparatus including a rotor position detection unit with a sensor configured to detect an angular position of a rotor of a horizontal shaft impact crusher, the rotor having attached thereon a group of hammers. A motor control system is configured to change the rotation speed of the rotor and an automation and control system is configured to control the motor control system in response to the detected angular position of the rotor. The rotor position detection unit is configured to detect a first and second angular position of the rotor corresponding to a first and second position of a hammer of the group of hammers attached to the rotor. The motor control system comprises a frequency converter and a brake configured to enable the stopping of the rotor.
Abstract:
A horizontal shaft impact crusher feed chute is arranged to receive material to be crushed and for forwarding the material to a crushing chamber of a horizontal shaft impact crusher. The chute includes a first opening arranged for receiving material to be crushed in a first crushing setting, and a second opening arranged for receiving material to be crushed in a second crushing setting.
Abstract:
A horizontal shaft impact crusher, including a crusher housing having an inlet for material to be crushed and an outlet for material that has been crushed. An impeller is mounted on a horizontal shaft in the crusher housing and is operative for rotating around a horizontal axis. Material to be crushed is accelerated by the impeller against a curtain. An adjustment device is provided for adjusting the position of the curtain relative to the impeller. The crusher housing includes at least two guide rails to which the adjustment device is slidably connected. A retaining device is arranged to hold, with a predetermined holding force, the adjustment device in a crusher operation position relative to the guide rails. The adjustment device is movable along the guide rails from the crusher operation position and away from the impeller in response to an excessive force being transferred from the curtain to the adjustment device and exceeding the predetermined holding force.
Abstract:
A horizontal shaft impact crusher includes a crusher housing having an inlet for material to be crushed and an outlet for material that has been crushed. An impeller is mounted in the crusher housing for rotation about a horizontal axis. A curtain disposed in the crusher housing is arranged so material accelerated by the impeller is crushed thereagainst. An adjustment device, which adjusts the position of the curtain relative to the impeller, is slidable connected to guide rods. The adjustment device includes a locking device positionable selectively in either a holding state in which the locking device is de-energized and arranged to apply a holding force for holding the adjustment device in a crusher operation position relative to the guide rods, or an adjustment state in which the locking device is energized and arranged to release the holding force, thereby enabling displacement of the adjustment device relative to the guide rods.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for adapting a horizontal shaft impact crusher for efficient crushing of different types of material are provided. At least two feed plates are provided. The feed plates each have a different feed angle adapted for use with a predetermined type or types of aggregate material. The feed plates can be interchangeably mounted on the crusher to adapt the crusher for enhanced crushing efficiency with respect to the type of material to be crushed.
