Patent number: 5779166Abstract: The application presents an adjustable cone crusher which has a hydraulic cylinder-plunger-combination (15, 4) for adjusting the setting and supporting a main shaft at its bottom end. The combination contains a bypass channel (21), through which the pressure medium escapes from the cylinder when the combination has been extended by a certain distance. In this way the crushing cone is prevented from rising too much upwards.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 1996Date of Patent: July 14, 1998Assignee: Norderg-Lokomo OyInventors: Markku Ruokonen, Raimo Koski

Patent number: 4779808Abstract: A gyratory crusher of the type including a frame with a bowl mounted on the frame and a head cooperable with the bowl in crushing operations. The head is rotatably mounted on an eccentric which is driven through suitable gearing. The head is positively rotated by a drive means either independent of or integral with the drive for the eccentric. The bowl is free to rotate about the frame. The rotary motion imparted to the head serves to induce centrifugal force to the particles of material within the crushing chamber. This centrifugal force, when combined with the gravitational force acting on the particles of material, results in the material moving through the crushing chamber in a trajectory which follows the configuration of the crushing chamber.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 1984Date of Patent: October 25, 1988Assignee: Fuller CompanyInventor: Carl R. Graf

Patent number: 4666092Abstract: The automatic random reset torque limiter of the invention, connected between the crushing head of a gyratory crusher and its one-way anti-spin clutch, comprises a carrier element and a coaxial detent element that have end surfaces opposing one another across a small gap. The carrier has wells opening to its end surface that are equidistant from its axis and are uniformly spaced from one another. The detent element has hemispherical cavities in its end surface, one for each well, each alignable with a well. In each well is a coiled compression spring and a ball. The spring normally holds the ball engaged in a cavity but allows it to ride out of the cavity and roll on the detent element end surface while excessive torque persists.Type: GrantFiled: December 26, 1985Date of Patent: May 19, 1987Assignee: Barber-Greene Company-Telsmith DivisionInventor: James C.
