SWING TAIL ASSEMBLY FOR MINER

摘要

A swing tail assembly rotates a swing tail conveyor (20) relative to a miner conveyor (9) including a mounting assembly (38) mounting a drive arrangement on a swing tail conveyor (20). The drive arrangement includes a hydraulic motor (30), a differential planetary speed reducer (31) and a sprocket (33) connected to said differential planetary speed reducer (31). A fixed pin/rac k arrangement (35) is connected to the fan section (10) of the miner conveyor (9) and the sprocket (33) cooperates with the pin/rack arrangement (35) to rotate the swing tail conveyor (20) relative to the miner conveyor (9).
