A movable jaw mounting assembly to provide adjustment of the close side setting (CSS) of a movable jaw and to act as a retraction assembly or assist with retraction. The assembly includes a pair of linear actuators that are coupled between the back frame end and a region of the toggle unit so as to move the toggle unit towards and away from the back frame end to allow insertion and removal of spacers and/or shims.

A control system that sets a voltage of a DC bus connected with a secondary battery to an optimal value in accordance with a capacity of a power supply and characteristics of the secondary battery to stabilize a battery voltage of the secondary battery. The control system includes: drive units having a crusher that crushes an object to be crushed; inverters connected to the respective drive units and convert power; a converter that receives power from an AC power supply and converts the received power into DC power; a lithium-ion battery that charges the DC power according to a drive state of the drive units or supplies power to the drive units according to the drive state of the drive units; and a PLC that sets a conversion voltage of the converter based on a state of the lithium-ion battery and an output capacity of the AC power supply.

A crusher for crushing mineral material, a method for decreasing give in a crusher and a mineral material processing plant. The crusher includes a movable and a fixed crushing element arranged to receive a force. The crusher further includes a hydraulic cylinder and a piston inside the hydraulic cylinder and a piston rod attached to the piston which extends through a first end of the hydraulic cylinder and is connected to the movable crushing element. The hydraulic cylinder has a first space around the part of the piston rod in the hydraulic cylinder and a second space limited by the first space and the piston. The crusher further includes a valve and a hydraulic fluid connection from the valve to the first space. The valve is configured to enable a flow of hydraulic fluid into the first space in response only to the piston moving in the hydraulic cylinder towards the second space due to said force.

A rock crusher having a base frame with a rear section, an eccentric shaft assembly which is mounted on the base frame, and a common tension assembly which is housed in the rear section of the base frame. In the preferred embodiments of the rock crusher, the rear section of the base frame is configured to house a toggle plate/wedge assembly or a tramp iron relief system. A method for converting a rock crusher between a toggle plate/wedge adjust assembly and a tramp iron relief system.

A toggle block adjustment arrangement for a jaw crusher is provided.

A crusher bucket comprising a casing in which there are mounted crushing means comprising a fixed jaw and a movable jaw, in which the movable jaw is supported on the casing by means of a pair of eccentric shafts, wherein at least one of the eccentric shafts is directly fixed to the side walls of the casing.

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.

A material processing apparatus comprising a rotary operating device coupled to a material processing device, especially a crusher. A primary drive system is coupled to the rotary operating device. An auxiliary drive system has a rotary drive member and is operable between a driving state, in which it is coupled to the rotary operating device, and a non-driving state in which it does not rotate the rotary operating device. The apparatus is operable in a primary mode in which the primary drive system rotates the rotary operating device and the auxiliary drive system is in its non-driving state, or in an auxiliary mode in which the auxiliary drive system is in its driving state. In the auxiliary mode, the auxiliary drive system may be operated to repeatedly rotate the rotary operating device alternately in both rotational directions to impart a back-and-forth rocking motion to the material processing device.

A jaw crusher, a crushing plant, and a method for using a crusher. A toggle plate is coupled between a pitman and a rear end of the jaw crusher with bearings at the ends of the toggle plate. A bearing holder for the bearing is present at least at one end of the toggle plate. The bearing is transferred continuously in the bearing holder to a desired location between an upper limit and a lower limit, inclusive of the upper and lower limits, with a transfer member of the bearing holder, and thus the operating angle of the toggle plate in relation to a frame of the crusher and the stroke of the crusher are changed.

The invention relates to a crusher plant, in particular a jaw crusher, including a crushing unit for crushing mineral material, the crushing unit comprising a crushing chamber, to which a crusher outlet is assigned, via which crushed material exits the crushing chamber, at least one actuator being provided, by which the opening size of the crusher outlet is adjustable in the event of an overload situation in the crushing unit, in order to discharge faulty material from the crushing chamber, a belt conveyor being provided after the crusher outlet in the material conveying direction, faulty material being transportable by the belt conveyor from the crusher outlet, following an overload situation, toward a transfer end of the belt conveyor, a detection device being provided, by which the overload situation of the crushing unit or an operating change of the crushing unit brought about as a consequence of the overload situation is detected and an overload signal is then generated, and a control device controlling the belt conveyor and/or monitoring the faulty material transported on the belt conveyor by taking into account the overload signal. According to the invention, it is thus possible to restore the operational readiness of the crushing plant quickly and in a simple manner following the occurrence of an overload situation.
