Patent number: 4201346Abstract: A device for crushing sinter and other material of like consistency is disclosed wherein the flow sinter material is deployed against an impact table which directs the sinter material downward onto a series of vertically disposed discs fixed to a common means of rotation. The common means of rotation intersects each disc through its central axis. Adjacent to the discs and parallel to the common means of rotation is positioned a shaft upon which are mounted crusher means arranged to intersect and pass between the discs. As sinter is directed downward onto the discs, the crusher means rotates and forces the sinter between the discs, thus crushing it. Heat buildup in the discs is controlled by a means of cooling which impinges on the discs.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 1978Date of Patent: May 6, 1980Assignee: Krupp-Koppers GmbHInventor: Erich Wiemer

Patent number: 4172561Abstract: A mineral lump breaker, for example for use in conjunction with a coal conveyor in a mine, comprises a breaker element and reaction means, for example in the form of a breaker plate or reaction discs. The breaker element and reaction means are carried by a framework straddling the conveyor and are spaced-apart so as to define between them a lump breaking gap. Material on the conveyor is moved into the gap where it is impacted by the breaker element against the reaction means. The reaction means is adjustable with respect to the breaker element periphery to vary the gap dimension.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 1978Date of Patent: October 30, 1979Assignee: Dresser Europe S.A.Inventor: George A. Parrott

Patent number: 4166583Abstract: Upper and lower rotors are offset in position, such as at an angle of 60.degree., between their centerlines, with the upper rotor having larger hammers and rotated at a lower speed than the lower rotor having smaller but a larger number of hammers. The feed is to the top of the upper rotor, and heavy interception bars extend perpendicularly to the centerline between the rotors and are disposed between the sets of hammers of the lower rotor, to prevent the entry of large objects into the lower rotor, to form an anvil against which objects on the bars are impacted by both the upper and lower hammers, with the lower hammers also "nibbling away" on the objects. A U-shaped corner formed of heavy armor plate is positioned next to the interception bars and extends between the circles of rotation of the hammer ends.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 1977Date of Patent: September 4, 1979Inventor: Konrad Ruckstuhl

Patent number: 4154407Abstract: A device for extracting cellulosic and similar materials such as rags, plastics, light metals and wood, which includes a drum which is driven in a first direction at a first speed and a rotor inside of the drum which is driven in a direction opposite to the first direction at a speed higher than the first speed. A plurality of teeth are located on the periphery of the drum along a part of its length for shredding the material placed into the drum input. A fixed plate and a plate of adjustable height are placed at the output of the drum against which the other materials accumulate.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 1977Date of Patent: May 15, 1979Assignee: Etablissements E. & M. LamortInventor: Pierre Lamort

Patent number: 4109690Abstract: A chipping apparatus for producing chips from entire trees, branches, shrubs, and the like comprises a rotatable cylindrical drum having a plurality of finger-like blades projecting from the surface. An axially parallel cylindrical counter-blade, having recesses on its surface which match the projecting blades on the first drum, coacts with the latter and is arranged to rotate in the same direction. The finger-like blades are adjustable as to how far they project from the surface of the cylinder and can be arranged on the latter in two arrow-shaped staggered rows or in axially disposed parallel rows.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1976Date of Patent: August 29, 1978Assignee: Rauma-Repola OYInventor: Niilo N. Berg

Patent number: 4082231Abstract: In order to grind refuse, such as municipal waste, two horizontal rotating elements, each carrying a plurality of radiating swinging hammers pivotally attached to discs spaced from each other, are driven in meshing rotation within a housing, the lower inner portion of which presents a series of grate bars extending radially inwardly toward, but spaced from the ends of the swinging hammers. Because the two elements are interconnected for synchronized rotation, the inertia of one element is added to the inertia of the other element to overcome surges of refuse arriving at the entrance of the grinder, which surges might otherwise stall the motor driving only one element. Stationary impact shear bars may be provided at the refuse entrance area of the housing to mesh with the rotating hammers, thereby to cause the ejection of uncrushable objects.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 1975Date of Patent: April 4, 1978Inventor: Orval E. Gould

Patent number: 4046325Abstract: Apparatus for crushing rock, stone and like material is described. The apparatus includes primary and secondary crushing chambers containing respectively a rotary impactor and a hammer mill. The apparatus can operate either in a wet mode or in a dry mode. In the former case material is processed successively in the two crushing chambers and discharged from the apparatus. In the wet mode, material is first processed in the primary crushing chamber and then discharged from said chamber for processing externally of the apparatus. At least some of the material is then returned to the secondary crushing chamber for further processing and discharge.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 1976Date of Patent: September 6, 1977Inventors: Steve Tucsok, Elemer Fogarassy

Patent number: 4009834Abstract: A method of operating a rotor-equipped breaker/crusher for coal and other material in which the drum is rotated at close to critical speed, and in which lifter shelves in the drum are adjusted for dropping material into the path of the rotor at a point where the rotor not only fragments the material, but also emphasizes the flinging of the material against the downwardly moving perforated wall of the drum. Methods of this character enable a relatively small breaker/crusher to effectively duplicate the performance of much larger existing units, while successfully controlling the production of fines.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 1975Date of Patent: March 1, 1977Assignee: Pennsylvania Crusher CorporationInventors: William F. Hahn, Carl R. Graf, George H. Hart

Patent number: 3973735Abstract: An apparatus and a method for processing municipal waste with increased processing capacity are provided. The apparatus includes at least a cylindrical screen having ridge projections on the inner surface thereof and a group of beaters mounted on a central shaft extending axially through the cylindrical screen. In carrying out the method, the municipal waste charged into the cylinder receives powerful beating and shearing due to the interaction caused by the relative rotation between the tips of the beaters and the ridge projections thereby remarkably increasing the processing capacity.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 1975Date of Patent: August 10, 1976Assignee: Keishin Matsumoto, President of Agency of Industrial Science and TechnologyInventors: Kanichi Ito, Yoshio Hirayama, Ryoichi Takeuchi, Masao Nomoto
