Patent number: 11103874Abstract: A gyratory crusher hydraulic pressure relief valve includes a hydraulic fluid vestibule arranged to be fluidly connected to a hydraulic fluid space. A logic element is arranged to dump hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic fluid space, which includes a plunger having a first plunger surface and a second plunger surface, and a control pipe arranged for fluidly connecting the second plunger surface to the hydraulic fluid vestibule. A supply orifice restricts the flow of hydraulic fluid from the vestibule towards the second plunger surface to make the time TC it takes for the logic element to switch from open position to closed position exceed the time TF it takes for a closed side setting position of the crusher to make one full round.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2019Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: SANDVIK INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ABInventor: Patrik Sjoberg

Patent number: 10352363Abstract: A gyratory cone crusher includes a first and a second crushing shell defining a crushing gap. The first crushing shell is arranged to gyrate around a vertical axis, in order to crush material entering the crushing gap, and is vertically supported by a thrust bearing including first and second bearing plates defining a spherical sliding interface. One of the bearing plates has one or more cooling and/or lubricating grooves at the sliding interface, each groove defining a channel, extending from the center of the sliding interface to the periphery thereof. In order to obtain a uniform distribution of grooves, the cooling/lubricating grooves are in the form of one or more spirals extending from the center of the sliding interface to the periphery thereof. The disclosure further relates to a bearing plate and a kit of bearing plates involving such a bearing plate.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2016Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: SANDVIK INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ABInventors: Patrik Sjoberg, Mauricio Torres

Patent number: 9914127Abstract: A hydraulic system for controlling the position of a movable jaw of a jaw crusher includes a hydraulic cylinder having a piston with a piston rod for positioning the movable jaw. The hydraulic cylinder has a bore side space for containing a hydraulic fluid taking up crushing forces exerted by the movable jaw on the piston rod, and an annular side space containing a hydraulic fluid pressing the piston against hydraulic fluid of the bore side space. The hydraulic system further includes an annular side space accumulator having a fluid compartment, which is in fluid contact with the annular side space, and a gas compartment containing a pressurized gas applying a pressure on the hydraulic fluid in the annular side space.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2013Date of Patent: March 13, 2018Assignee: SANDVIK INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ABInventors: Kristian Burhoff, Patrik Sjoberg, Andreas Wood

Patent number: 8496195Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for operating a gyratory cone crusher as well as a hydraulic circuit suitable for carrying out the method. A crusher comprises an inner crusher shell and an outer crusher shell, which define a crusher gap, and the crusher gap size is maintained by means of a hydraulic cylinder, and, in case the hydraulic liquid pressure exceeds a pressure threshold, hydraulic liquid is evacuated from the cylinder to increase the crusher gap size. The method involves carrying out detection of a tramp iron processing condition, implying that matter which the crusher cannot process has enter the gap. If such a condition is detected, the pressure threshold is lowered during a period of time. This means that the crusher gap is opened quicker, such that the matter that cannot be crushed is removed from the crusher, which is thereby protected from potentially detrimental impacts.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2011Date of Patent: July 30, 2013Assignee: Sandvik Intellectual Property ABInventors: Patrik Sjoberg, Mauricio Torres

Patent number: 7922109Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2009Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: Sandvik Intellectual Property ABInventors: Sebastian Persson, Patrik Sjöberg
