Abstract: A road grading pick includes a cutting head, a shank, a shoulder at a transition between the cutting head and the shank, and a polygonal-shaped washer or an oval-shaped washer. The shank is positioned in an opening of the washer to position the washer along a longitudinal length of the shank between a rearward end of the shank and the rearward facing surface of the shoulder. In a preinstalled position, the washer compresses a friction retainer on the shank of the road grading pick to facilitate seating of the road grading pick in a blade of a road grading apparatus. In an installed position on an adapter board for a moldboard of road grading equipment, the friction retainer is no longer in the opening of the washer and the washer prevents washer rotation and shields an underlying mounting surface while allowing rotation of the road grading pick.

In radial cross-section, outer peripheral edges of the shoulder portion of the sleeve have a shape of a first polygon. The holder block and the hollow sleeve include cooperating rotation inhibiting features. For example, the holder block includes a stop projecting forwardly past a plane of the front face and positioned radially offset from a circumference of the opening in the holder block to allow a rearward surface of the shoulder portion of the sleeve to contact the front face of the holder block and to prevent rotation of the hollow sleeve greater than N degrees, N = 360 n , where n is the number of sides of the first polygon, by contacting an outer peripheral edge of the shoulder portion with the stop. A sleeve per se and an assembly including a cutting pick are also disclosed.

Abstract: An anti-spin assembly is arranged in a gyratory crusher. The anti-spin assembly includes an expandable braking receptacle, which is adapted to be expanded by way of a pressure medium. The braking receptacle is arranged in a space between a first surface formed on a part which rotates with the crushing head and a second surface formed on a non-rotary part which is connected to the frame bottom part. The braking receptacle is arranged, when expanding, to engage both the first and the second surface, thereby braking the rotation of the crushing head.

Abstract: A cutting insert for chip removing machining of workpieces, including at least one chip-removal surface that carries away chips, at least one side surface that is a clearance surface, and at least one cutting edge formed between the at least one chip-removal surface and the at least one side surface. The cutting edge includes a main-edge segment that carries out a major part of a chip-removing operation, and a wiping-edge segment that, in the chip-removing operation, wipes off and levels a machined surface of the workpiece. The wiping-edge segment forms a depression.

Abstract: A gyratory crusher includes a crushing head on which a first crushing shell is mounted, and a frame on which a second crushing shell is mounted. The crusher has a thrust bearing which is made up of horizontal bearing plates and which is located between a vertical shaft and a piston arranged vertically below the vertical shaft. The crusher further has a first space, which is adapted to receive a variable amount of pressurized liquid, the first space being defined by the piston and a piston housing formed in the frame, and a second space which is adapted to receive, by way of a duct, pressurized liquid from the first space, the second space being located between the vertical shaft and the piston and at least partly accommodated in an opening in at least one of the bearing plates. The first space and the second space are adapted, by the liquid, to transmit forces from the crushing head to the piston housing, in order that the load on the thrust bearing is relieved.
