Abstract: Air compressor systems, upgrade kits, computer readable medium, and methods for controlling an air compressor for improved performance. The methods may include receiving a working air requirement; determining an estimated air pressure of the air compressor to deliver the working air requirement; measuring a pressure of the air compressor; comparing the measured pressure with the calculated estimated air pressure; if the measured pressure of the air compressor is greater than the determined estimated air pressure by a predetermined greater amount, then decreasing an output control of the air compressor; and if the measured pressure of the air compressor is less than the calculated estimated air pressure by a predetermined lesser amount then increasing the output control of the air compressor. The air compressor may be controlled based on a measured pressure of delivered working air. An oil control system may shut off oil to parts of the air compressor.

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 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.

The basic body includes an envelope surface and two opposite ends between which a geometrical center axis extends around which the basic body is rotated. The cutting body is fixed in a seating of the basic body and includes a pair of opposite main surfaces, a pair of opposite sides, and a pair of opposite end surfaces between which an imaginary, axial neutral plane extends situated halfway between the two main surfaces. The cutting body includes a set of chip removing teeth, which protrude from the envelope surface of the basic body, and are arranged in a row one after the other along at least one of the pair of opposite sides of the cutting body. Each one of the teeth includes a chip surface formed adjacent to a cutting edge from which the tooth extends between a pair of flanks along a length extension which is orientated at an angle (?) to the neutral plane.

Abstract: The invention relates to a base body for a drilling tool, in particular to drilling/grinding tool whose front surface (14) can accommodate a cutting insert holder (2). Said invention also relates to a cutting insert holder used with said base body (1) provided with a seat for receiving a cutting insert (13, 13?, 13?). The aim of the invention is to develop a flexibly usable drilling tool whose cutting insert holder can be adjusted in a simple and accurate manner and is not expensive. For this purpose, at least one adjusting pin (4) which is connected to the base body (1) axially overlaps the cutting insert holder (2) and/or the cutting insert in such a way that a radial adjustment of the cutting insert holder (2) with respect to the base body (1) can be carried out by measuring the radial deviation (a) between the defined point of the cutting insert holder (2) or a cutting insert (3, 3?, 3?) accommodated thereby and the adjusting pin (4).

Abstract: An assembly is disclosed including a holder block, a cutting pick, and an optional hollow sleeve, wherein the shank of the cutting pick is inserted into the holder block or, where present, into the hollow sleeve. When assembled, surfaces of the components meet at an interface. At least one of the first interface and the second interface includes one or more sets of wear elements including cemented carbide bodies press fit into recesses in the forwardly oriented surfaces meeting at the interfaces. The wear elements mitigate direct contact between the opposing surfaces of the components at the interfaces and prevents excessive wear from repetitive impact because the harder wear elements, e.g., cemented carbide, are contact points between the opposing surfaces of the components at the interfaces. A machine incorporating the assembly and a method of manufacturing the assembly are also disclosed, particularly a machine for mining, excavating, tunneling, road planing and/or construction.
