A turret includes a generally frusto-conical shaped body and a plurality of static vanes arranged interior to the body and extending inwardly from an interior sidewall of the body. The vanes are configured to guide a swirling flow of solid particles as they enter the body, and to divide the swirling flow into a plurality of controlled flows that are communicated to a plurality of coal outlet pipes.

The present invention relates to tilting a wet stone grinder of capacity in the 125-300 liter size. Tilting is accomplished by a gear driven, manual or motorized tilting mechanism.

A system for servicing a pulverizer includes a pulverizer having a housing, a journal assembly pivotally connected to the housing, a grinding mechanism operatively connected to the journal assembly, and an opening within the housing adjacent to the journal assembly and providing an access point to an interior of the housing, and a hoist apparatus mounted to the housing. The hoist apparatus includes a frame assembly received about the opening in the housing, a sheave assembly including a plurality of sheaves supported by the frame assembly, a motor operatively connected to one of the plurality of sheaves, and a cable received by the sheave assembly. The motor is operable to at least one of retract the cable through the sheave assembly to rotate a component out of the pulverizer through the opening and controllably let out the cable to rotate the component into the pulverizer through the opening.

The invention relates to a milling bowl, in particular for vertical mills, and to the production of such a milling bowl. Milling bowls of this type have hitherto typically been produced from a cast material as a single piece. Due to the increasing size of said milling bowls, said milling bowls can generally only be transported to the destinations by means of special transport. Therefore, the invention creates a milling bowl consisting of assemblies, wherein a double-walled center part formed from two housing shells is provided between a head flange and a base flange. Said center part forms a cavity, which is filled with a curable casting compound such that a rotationally rigid milling bowl is present after the casting compound has been cured.

Existing methods of extrusion and other techniques to compound host and additives material uniformly disperse the additive in the host. This innovation uses ball milling to a coat a host particle with an additive dramatically reducing the additive required to achieve a percolative network in the host.

The object of the invention is an apparatus and a method for grinding lumpy material. The solution according to the invention comprises a grinding plate (2) rotating on the horizontal plane around a vertical axis of rotation, onto the top surface of which the material (3) to be ground can be fed, and on the top surface (8) of which grinding plate is a plurality of grinding discs (4a), which rotate by the effect of the rotating motion of the grinding plate (2) and compress the material to be ground against the grinding plate (2). The apparatus comprises a revolver mechanism for changing the angle of the plane of rotation (RP) of the grinding discs (4a) with respect to a line in the direction of the radius of the grinding plate (2).

Apparatus and method for recycling asphalt millings containing bitumen and stone. A milling tube is provided having an outer tube and an inner tube axially aligned with and substantially contained within the outer tube, the inner tube having a diameter less that a diameter of the outer tube to thus define a mixing space between the inner and outer tubes. At least one of the inner and outer tubes is adapted to rotate relative to the other. An inlet is provided to the mixing space to receive the asphalt millings. A plurality of inner tube projections project radially outward from a surface of the inner tube toward the outer tube, and a plurality of outer tube projections project radially inward from a surface of the outer tube toward the inner tube. The milling tube facilitates the separation of the asphalt millings into bitumen and stone as one of the inner and outer tubes rotates relative to the other. Preferably, at least one of the outer and inner tubes contains an abrasive coating on a surface thereof, the inner tube projections and outer tube projections are comprised of wire rope, and an inlet is provided in the outer tube through which cold air can be applied to the mixing space.

A multiple drive for a heavy load application includes a plurality of drive trains which are activated such that individual ones of the plurality of drive trains are successively activated automatically during startup of the heavy load application as part of a predefined activation strategy according to a predefined activation scheme and an activation sequence defined therein. In the event of a repeated start of the heavy-load application, a different activation scheme can be used for the activation.
