  • Patent number: 11007532
    Abstract: A drive mechanism for an inertia cone crusher having a drive transmission to rotate an unbalanced mass body within the crusher and to cause a crusher head to rotate about a gyration axis at a tilt angle formed by an axis of the crusher head relative to the gyration axis. A torque reaction coupling is positioned in the drive transmission between the mass body and a drive input component and is elastically displaceable and/or deformable. In particular, the torque reaction coupling is configured to: i) transmit a torque from the drive input to the mass body and ii) to dynamically displace and/or deform elastically in response to a change in the torque resultant from a change in the tilt angle of the crusher head so as to dissipate the change in the torque to the drive transmission.

  • Patent number: 11000854
    Abstract: A rotor positioning device in a crusher is arranged to adjust a rotational position of a rotor shaft. A shaft engager includes a female toothed mating surface for coaxial engagement with a male mating surface at an end of the rotor shaft, so they become rotationally interlocked. The shaft engager includes alignable indicator slots that are, when in use, alignable with markings associated with an end of the rotor shaft, such that the markings become visible through the slots as the rod is rotationally driven by a drive component. The markings correspond to hammer positions within the crusher, such that these can be maneuvered for maintenance (e.g. to top dead-center positions) before access to the crusher chamber is gained.

  • Patent number: 10967469
    Abstract: Automated fixture layout is approached in two distinct stages. First, the spatial locations of clamping points on the work piece are determined to ensure immobility of the fixtured part under any infinitesimal perturbation. Second, spatial locations are matched against a user-specified library of reconfigurable clamps to synthesize a valid fixture layout or configuration that includes clamps that are accessible and collision free. The spatial locations matching during the second stage can be the same spatial locations chosen in the first stage to ensure immobility, or a different set of spatial locations.
