The preferred anti-spin system includes a flow source which is adapted to provide working fluid flow, a working fluid source which is adapted to supply working fluid, a control valve which is in fluid communication with the working fluid source and being adapted to allow the working fluid to flow to the flow source, and a torque transmittal assembly which is adapted to connect the crushing head and the flow source and transmit torque from the crushing head to the stationary frame. The preferred anti-spin system is adapted to control rotation of the crushing head. A method comprising providing such an anti-spin system and controlling the rotation of the crushing head.

Abstract: A bearing assembly system adapted for use on a rock crusher having a main frame, a main shaft, an eccentric and a crushing head. The bearing assembly system comprises a first bearing ring which is disposed around the main shaft, a second bearing ring which is disposed adjacent to the first bearing ring, and a means for conveying fluid to at least one of the first bearing ring and the second bearing ring. In the preferred bearing assembly system at least one of the first bearing ring and the second bearing ring comprises a fluid depression. The preferred method further comprises conveying fluid from the means for conveying fluid to at least one of the first bearing ring and second bearing ring.

Abstract: A liner system, adapted for use with a rock crusher having a support bowl and a concave ring. The liner system comprises a collet that is adapted to apply a force to the concave ring and a collet adjuster that is adapted to lower and raise the collet, in the preferred liner system, the concave ring is removably retained in the support bowl of the rock crusher by the liner system. A method for adjusting a collet comprising providing such a liner system and adjusting the collet adjuster so as to removably retain the concave ring.

Abstract: A sealing system adapted for use on an item of equipment having a male threaded component including a male threaded section having an interior portion. The sealing system comprises a female threaded component having a female threaded section and a scraper seal groove. The sealing system also comprises a scraper seal that is configured to be disposed in the scraper seal groove of the female threaded component and fit into the male threaded section of the male threaded component. The forces produced by the item of equipment pass directly to the female threaded component from the male threaded section. A method for sealing an interior portion of a threaded section of the male threaded component comprising providing such a sealing system and screwing the male threaded component, into the female threaded component.

Abstract: A crusher adapted to crush feed materials comprising a main frame, a secondary frame disposed adjacent to the main frame, a crushing chamber adapted to receive feed materials, and a tramp iron relief system comprising a cylinder. The tramp iron relief system is adapted to allow a portion of the secondary frame to move away from the main frame. The cylinder is disposed substantially adjacent to the secondary frame. A method for installing a cylinder on a crusher and a method for removing a cylinder from a crusher wherein a lifting device remains attached to the cylinder continuously during each operation.
