Abstract: A mobile crusher unit is provided having a supporting framework (12) which is includes at least a crusher unit (13), a feed conveyor (11), and a dumping conveyor unit (14), and which can be relocated by means of a crawler undercarriage. To minimize construction height and weight the supporting framework and the traveling gear are configured as one unit, with parts of the supporting framework (12) serving as parts of the traveling gear, and with the crawlers (16) of the crawler vehicle protruding into recesses of the supporting framework.

Abstract: A materials spreader for a plant for the continuous deposition of conveyable material, the substructure of which is supported on three support points and has a discharge jib. The support points of its substructure are designed as pontoons resting on the ground. A transport vehicle is provided underneath the substructure for moving the spreader. This transport vehicle is not permanently connected to the substructure.

Abstract: An apparatus including a frame, a cantilever arm movably mounted on the frame, and a servomotor operatively connected to the frame and the cantilever arm for setting a height position of the cantilever arm. The servomotor is exposed to tension loads derived from forces acting on the cantilever arm. The apparatus further includes a device for relieving the servomotor of the tension loads for an arbitrary period. The device includes a tension member attached parallel to the servomotor for the arbitrary period. The device further has an intermediate member having a first pivot joint operatively articulated to the cantilever arm for introducing the tension loads into the intermediate member, a second pivot joint for being coupled to an end of the tension member and a third pivot joint for being releasably coupled to the servomotor. The first, second and third pivot joints are spaced from one another and form the three corners of an imaginary triangle.

Abstract: The bucket-wheel excavator comprises a swivellable bucket-wheel boom 6 and a swivellable bridge 11. At a transfer location, the bridge 11 is rotatably supported on a truncated conical superstructure 10 and the turntable b 16 l of the bridge comprises raking protrusions 17, which clear the surface 18 of the superstructure 10 of debris when swivelling the turntable 16 (FIG. 1).

Abstract: A movable device (1) for openpit mining has a plurality of excavating hammers (11) on a cantilever boom (2) being swivellable in height direction. For facilitating the continuous excavating work and for providing an adaptability to the varying angles of inclination encountered in openpit mining, at least part (23) of the carrier (6) or the carrier (6) itself is shiftable in transverse relation to the longitudinal axis (7) of the cantilever arm (2), so that on downward swivelling movement of the cantilever arm (2) in direction of the arrow (17) the whole carrier (6) or at least part (23) thereof can be shifted in transverse relation to the longidudinal axis (7) of the cantilever arm by a hydraulic cylinder-piston-aggregate (8), thereby maintaining a predetermined angle of inclination or angle of repose.

Abstract: The caterpillar chassis (1) for heavy vehicles, such as bucket-wheel excavators or wheeled loaders, has four caterpillars (2, 9) being arranged such that they spread out a supporting triangle (4). The front caterpillars (9), which are located at a smaller distance from the longitudinal axis (3) of the chassis, are designed for being dirigible. The swivel axis (11) of the traversing gear supported on the supporting triangle (4) is displaced out of the position (10) of the center of gravity of the supporting triangle (4) in direction to the front end (8) of the supporting triangle along the height line (7), so that the load acting on the caterpillars (2 and 9) is made more uniform.
