Abstract: Inertia cone crusher for crushing materials includes a body with an outer cone and an inner cone arranged inside, on whose drive shaft an unbalance weight is provided with the aid of a slide bushing and connected via a transmission disk coupling to a combined moving dynamic assembly comprising a counterbalance weight and a counterbalance weight slide bushing, the assembly connected to a gear transmission and a motor, and has an improved plain journal bearing. The plain bearing is installed between the flange and the counterbalance weight, bearing the load from the crusher's moving part, and includes a base ring and an upper ring, the base ring having a spherical bottom surface and its mating recess on the flange's top surface. The bearing enables the moving dynamic assembly's rotation around the axis, using a hydrodynamic sliding mode, with radial oil slots additionally provided on top surface of the base ring.

Abstract: A cone crusher includes body installed on foundation with resilient dampers and having an outer cone and an inner cone. Unbalance weight is on the drive shaft of inner cone using a slide bushing, with center of gravity adjustable relative to rotation axis, slide damper of unbalance weight connected to transmission coupler, through which torque is transmitted. Transmission coupler is a disc coupler comprising a drive half-coupler, a driven half-coupler, and a floating disc between them. The driven half-coupler is rigidly connected to slide bushing, and the drive half-coupler, to gear rigidly connected to counterbalance weight. The drive half-coupler, gear and counterbalance weight are mounted on the slide bushing, and driving half-coupler, gear, counterbalance weight, and the slide bushing form one movable dynamic assembly, installed using a mounting disc, on fixed rotation axis, which rests upon flange rigidly fixed in the bottom part of body of the crusher.

Abstract: A crushing and reducing device, especially cone crushers, used in the building and ore-dressing industries. A method of controlling the operation of a cone crusher having an internal cone connected to an unbalanced vibrator, and an external cone. The method includes utilizing a measurement plane being connected to the internal cone, measuring distances between the measurement plane and a frame of the crusher, and calculating an angle of inclination of the inner cone. The method further includes controlling, based on the calculated angle of inclination of the inner cone, at least one parameter chosen among: the angle of inclination of the inner cone, and the size of a discharge gap between the internal cone and the external cone.

Abstract: A crushing and reducing device, especially cone crushers, used in the building and ore-dressing industries. A method includes providing a crusher with proximity sensors and a disc rigidly secured to the unbalanced-mass vibration generator of the crusher such that the plane thereof is always perpendicular to the rotation axis of the vibration generator. The method includes measuring a distance to the disc, calculating the three-dimensional position of the disc plane, calculating the amplitude of the circular vibrations of the internal cone according to the position, calculating the size of a crushing gap according to the calculated amplitude, comparing the size with the specified parameter of the gap and, if required based on comparison results, outputting a control command to hydraulic cylinders to modify the position of an adjustment ring. The adjustment ring position is controlled by a proximity sensor which is mounted on the flange of a body top part.

Abstract: The invention relates to crushing and reducing device, in particular to cone crushers, and can be used in the building and ore-dressing industries. The inventive method is carried out by means of a crusher which is provided with proximity sensors, the operation of which is controlled by means of a computer, and with a disc R which is rigidly secured to the unbalanced-mass vibration generator of the crusher in such a way that the plane thereof is always perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the unbalanced-mass vibration generator.
