Abstract: A method for moving a processing device, a frame of a processing device and a processing device, which is moved on a base. The processing device comprises at least one processing unit and a frame, to which the processing unit is attached, as well as at least four legs articulated to the frame. The legs comprise support plates settable against the base. The legs are settable into a support phase, where the support plate settles against the base and into a transfer phase, where the support plate is off the base. The processing device is moved without lowering the frame onto the base so that the legs are controlled to settle to the support phase and the transfer phase alternately so that at least three legs are in the support phase when the processing device moves.

Abstract: A crusher comprising at least a first crushing blade and a second crushing blade which are arranged to be rotary, one of the crushing blades being also arranged to move back and forth along a substantially harmonic linear path, and the rotating axes of the first crushing blade and the second crushing blade being parallel with the linear direction of movement of the second crushing blade. The second crushing blade is adjusted to move substantially harmonically back and forth along a linear path.

Abstract: User interface of a mineral processing equipment governs a mineral processing line having several units (crushers, screens) connected in series. The user interface comprises a display screen (14) and control buttons or keys and is connected through a data transmission link to sensors and actuators of the mineral processing equipment for receiving measurement data and sending control commands. The user interface is arranged to show within the display screen (14), by choice of the user status of the mineral processing equipment in diagrammatic representation, or a live camera view (21) of at least one point of the equipment. The diagrammatic representations can be in form of a traffic lights (20) indicating the feeding speeds of the units.

Abstract: A method for controlling the crusher, which crusher comprises at least a frame (6), a crushing means (4) with a cycle, as well as an actuator (10) for moving the crushing means. In the method, at least first data is determined, which is at least one of the following: the power input in the actuator, the crushing force, the particle distribution of the crushed material produced by the crusher, or the quantity of crushed material produced by the crusher. The cycle frequency of the crushing means (4) is controlled on the basis of the first data. The invention also relates to a crusher, in which the cycle frequency of the crushing means (4) is adjusted according to control data from the control unit (14).

Abstract: A wear part of a vertical shaft impactor consisting of at least two or a plurality of materials, whereby the wear part comprises a base part composed of a polymer material, having wear resistant inserts attached to the base part.

Abstract: Feeder hopper for a movable mineral material processing device, whose walls are arranged to be turned upward to a working position, and which are locked into said working position. To lock the walls, there is at least one locking means in connection with them, said locking means containing at least a locking member and transfer means. According to the method the locking member is transferred to the locking position with the transfer means.

Abstract: A lifting element for a drum of a grinding mill to be used for grinding of ores and minerals, said lifting element being attached to a frame of the drum and extending in the longitudinal direction of the drum, and said lifting element comprising a flexible body and a wear protection located in the leading edge of the body with respect to the direction of rotation of the drum. The wear protection consists of at least two different parts, said parts being manufactured of different materials having toughness and hardness different from each other.
