A rock crusher is provided that has a crusher cavity defined between a first part and a second part. A plurality of hydraulic cylinders are mounted between the first and second part, the hydraulic cylinders including a relief system. The relief system is included for reducing oil pressure within the hydraulic cylinders in the event uncrushables enter the crusher cavity, the relief system including a relief valve that is designed to open when hydraulic pressure in hydraulic cylinder reaches a predetermined level. This reduces the pressure in the hydraulic cylinder as oil pressure is dumped from the hydraulic cylinder via various oil passages.

A cone crusher includes body installed on foundation with resilient dampers and having an outer cone and an inner cone. Unbalance weight is on the drive shaft of inner cone using a slide bushing, with center of gravity adjustable relative to rotation axis, slide damper of unbalance weight connected to transmission coupler, through which torque is transmitted. Transmission coupler is a disc coupler comprising a drive half-coupler, a driven half-coupler, and a floating disc between them. The driven half-coupler is rigidly connected to slide bushing, and the drive half-coupler, to gear rigidly connected to counterbalance weight. The drive half-coupler, gear and counterbalance weight are mounted on the slide bushing, and driving half-coupler, gear, counterbalance weight, and the slide bushing form one movable dynamic assembly, installed using a mounting disc, on fixed rotation axis, which rests upon flange rigidly fixed in the bottom part of body of the crusher.

A cone crusher may include a crushing cone held on a driven eccentric bushing. The eccentric bushing may rotate in a radial direction about a spindle. The spindle may be fixedly clamped in a spindle receptacle provided in a housing lower part. The spindle may comprise a cylindrical upper bearing portion that is braced in a bore that forms the spindle receptacle by way of an upper mechanical clamping device.

An apparatus (2) and a method for attaching a cone-shaped crushing mantle (4) of a cone crusher (100) to a carrier cone (6) of the cone crusher (100) and for detaching the crushing mantle (4) from the carrier cone (6) are provided. The apparatus (2) comprises a hydraulically actuated pre-tensioning actuator (24) adapted for pressing the crushing mantle (4) against the carrier cone (6) in a pre-tensioning process in the axial direction prior to tightening attachment screws (18) in the head region (20) of the carrier cone (6). The hydraulic pre-tensioning actuator (24) comprises a pressure chamber (26) for receiving a pressurized hydraulic medium and a piston (28) limiting the pressure chamber (26). The hydraulic pre-tensioning actuator (24) is applied externally to a pressure plate (10) during the pre-tensioning process, such that a piston rod (36) of the piston (28) or a rod-shaped element attached thereto extends through the central opening (14) of the pressure plate (10) and is attached to the head region (20) of the carrier cone (6), wherein the pressure chamber (26) and the piston (28) of the hydraulic pre-tensioning actuator (24) are located on a side of the pressure plate (10) opposite to the carrier cone (6). The hydraulic pre-tensioning actuator (24) may be released and removed from the pressure plate (10) outside the pre-tensioning process.

A locking bolt assembly (1) for securing a mantle (40) to a head assembly (60) of a crushing device includes locking bolt (10) having a head portion (10a) and a thread portion (10b); a re-useable thrust plate (30) disposed between the head portion (10a) and a top surface portion (42) of the mantle (40); one or more fasteners (20) for connecting the locking bolt (10) to the re-useable thrust plate (30); and one or more permanent jacking screws (34) for forcing the locking bolt (10) up and the thrust plate (30) down onto the top surface portion (42) of the mantle (40) so that the mantle (40) is secured on the head assembly (60).

A gyratory crusher hydraulic pressure relief valve includes a hydraulic fluid vestibule arranged to be fluidly connected to a hydraulic fluid space. A logic element is arranged to dump hydraulic fluid from the hydraulic fluid space, which includes a plunger having a first plunger surface and a second plunger surface, and a control pipe arranged for fluidly connecting the second plunger surface to the hydraulic fluid vestibule. A supply orifice restricts the flow of hydraulic fluid from the vestibule towards the second plunger surface to make the time TC it takes for the logic element to switch from open position to closed position exceed the time TF it takes for a closed side setting position of the crusher to make one full round.
