CONE CRUSHER WITH ADJUSTABLE STROKE

摘要

A gyratory crusher includes a bowl assembly with a concave crushing surface and a crusher head of conical shape which extends into the concave portion of the bowl assembly. A central crusher axis extends centrally through the bowl assembly. The crusher head is mounted with a central head axis at an angular deviation with respect to the central crusher axis to intersect the crusher axis at an apex. Crushing action is obtained by driving the crusher head to gyrate the angular offset of its central axis about the central crusher axis. The gyratory crusher has an adjustable stroke of gyration. Adjustability of the stroke is obtained by controllably varying the amount of angular deviation by which the crusher head gyrates about the central crusher axis. The amount of angular deviation is controlled by an eccentric support bearing which gyrates a guide shaft of the crusher head about the crusher axis and which is adjustably mounted to move toward and away from the apex of gyration without also changing the position of the crusher head with respect to the apex.
