Abstract
A mobile mineral material processing station has a mobile platform having tracks or wheels or a skids for supporting or forming a body that supports in line, in a transport configuration: a feed conveyor; a screen frame and a multi-layer screen; first and second exit conveyors; and a third exit conveyor on top of the first and second exit conveyors. The first exit conveyor turns from a transport position, under the third exit conveyor, to a first operation direction, onto a first side of the station, for operating the station, and back. The second exit conveyor turns from a transport position, under the third exit conveyor, to a second operation direction onto a second side of the station, opposite to the first side, and back.
Claims13
A mobile mineral material processing station comprising:
- a mobile platform;
- a frame supported by or formed by the mobile platform;
- a screen supported by the frame and having an upstream end and a downstream end;
- an exit conveyor supported by the frame and positioned in line with the screen and located adjacent the downstream end of the screen;
- at least one actuator configured to tilt the upstream end of the screen in a first rotational direction;
- and
- a tilting mechanism configured to tilt the exit conveyor, synchronized with tilting of the screen, in a second rotational direction opposite to the first rotational direction when the at least one actuator tilts the screen in the first rotational direction.
A method in a mobile mineral material processing station comprising a mobile platform having tracks or wheels or a skids, the method comprising:
- supporting or forming a frame by the mobile platform;
- supporting a screen by the frame, the screen having an upstream end and a downstream end;
- supporting an exit conveyor by the frame in line with the screen and adjacent to the downstream end of the screen;
- tilting by at least one actuator the upstream end of the screen in a first rotational direction;
- and
- tilting by a tilting mechanism the exit conveyor, synchronized with the tilting of the screen, in a second rotational direction opposite to the first rotational direction when the actuator tilts the screen in the first rotational direction.
