A vertical mill gearbox includes a drive shaft mounted in a casing for rotation about a rotation axis, and an intermediate shaft configured as a hollow shaft and mounted in the casing for rotation about a vertical second rotation axis. The intermediate shaft has a bevel gear meshing with a bevel-gear pinion of the drive shaft. A torsion shaft is received in fixed rotative engagement with the intermediate shaft and sized to extend beyond the intermediate shaft to define a projecting section to which a sun gear rotatably driven via the intermediate shaft is fixed. A planet carrier is mounted in the casing for rotation about the second rotation axis and rotatably supports an internal gear having an internal tooth system. Mounted to the planet carrier is a rotatable planet gear which meshes with the sun gear and with the internal tooth system of the internal gear.

A method for drive control of a vertical roller mill having a grinding table rotatable about a vertical axis includes driving the grinding table with a drive train comprising an electric motor and a gearbox with a rotation speed; monitoring a profile of a measured value derived from vibration-relevant measured values to detect a predefined pattern in the profile; and when the predefined pattern is detected, automatically increasing or reducing the rotation speed of the grinding table by a predefined adjustment value. A corresponding drive system operating according to the method is also disclosed.

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 tiling mechanism.

Embodiments of the present application provide a crushing and drying device, including: a classification unit, a first box body, and a second box body connected in sequence along the direction of gravity, the first box body being configured to accommodate and crush materials, the second box body being configured to convey airflow to the first box body to dry the materials, and the classification unit being configured to screen out and discharge crushed and dried target materials, the target materials being materials with particle sizes less than a preset threshold.

A crusher for comminuting chips including a hopper for loading chips, a fine breaking mechanism for breaking the chips into fine chips, and a chip discharge. The chips loaded the hopper may include coarse particles. The fine breaking mechanism includes fixed external teeth and a rotary inner cutter head with blades. The fixed external teeth are arranged on at least two segments movable in such a way that they can be moved away from the cutter head when a coarse particle enters the fine breaking mechanism so the coarse particle can pass through the fine breaking mechanism. The segments of the fine breaking mechanism can assume a cleaning position in addition to the operating position, wherein, when the segments are in the cleaning position, an intermediate space is provided between a base plate and a cover plate allowing access in the horizontal direction to the cutter head.

A method and system for coal ash reclamation from a land fill, the system comprising: a harvester; a screen for screening non-ash material from ash collected by the harvester; a dryer for drying raw ash thereby creating dried coal ash and fine particulate ash; an exhaust pipe to direct the ash to a dust collector; a crusher for crushing the dried ash; a classifier for classifying the crushed dried ash; and a storage container for storage. The method comprising: harvesting raw coal ash from a land fill; screening the raw coal ash to remove oversize materials; drying the screened ash to remove water; crushing the stream of dried ash; classifying the crushed ash into fine particulate ash and large particulate ash, the second stream being directed for further crushing; streams of fine particulate ash being cooled; and storing the fine particulate ash.

A system for adjusting a depth of a material bed in a pulverizer mill is provided. The system includes a rotatable bowl, an extension ring, and an extension mechanism. The rotatable bowl has a surface operative to support the material bed while the bowl rotates such that particles of the material bed are pulverized against the surface by one or more grinding rollers of the pulverizer mill. The extension ring is disposed about a circumference of the rotatable bowl extending away from the surface and defines a depth of the material bed. The extension mechanism adjusts at least one of the extension ring and the rotatable bowl while the rotatable bowl rotates. Adjusting at least one of the extension ring and the rotatable bowl via the extension mechanism moves the extension ring in relation to the surface so as to adjust the depth of the material bed.

In the method according to the invention for the comminution of grinding stock in a vertical roller mill, the grinding stock is fed upstream of at least one grinding roller in order to form a grinding bed and is comminuted between a grinding table and the at least one grinding roller, the grinding bed which is being formed being settable at a differing height over the width of the grinding roller by means of a feeding device.

A gearing arrangement for a vertical mill includes a central shaft mounted for rotation about a vertical rotation axis, a spur gear arranged in fixed rotative engagement on the central shaft, and an output flange rotatably coupled to the central shaft. At least one gear unit having gear pairs is arranged vertically below the output flange, with a pinion gear arranged on an output side of the gear unit for engagement into the spur gear on the central shaft. The gear unit is arranged on a traversing mechanism in such a way that the pinion gear on the output side is movable in relation to the spur gear to engage in and disengage from the spur gear, as the gear unit is moved by the traversing mechanism.

A bowl mill for producing coarse ground particles has a substantially closed body, a bowl assembly, a plurality of grinding rolls, and a coarse particle transport enabling area. The substantially closed body has an interior area. The bowl assembly includes a rotatable grinding table mounted for rotation in a direction of rotation in the interior area. The grinding table has a grinding surface thereon. The plurality of grinding rolls are positioned proximate the grinding surface. The grinding rolls and the grinding surface define a grinding area therebetween. The coarse particle transport enabling area is located radially outward from the grinding area. The coarse particle transport enabling area is configured to allow the coarse particles to freely exit the grinding area and to mitigate the coarse particles from being circulated back into the grinding area.
