US 12,508,602 B2 · Mobile rock processing apparatus with improved planning of a discontinuous material feed

Abstract

A rock processing apparatus is provided for crushing and/or sorting granular mineral material according to size. The rock processing apparatus comprises a material feeding apparatus including a material buffer, at least one working unit of at least one crushing apparatus and at least one screening apparatus, at least one conveyor apparatus for conveying material between two apparatus components, a control unit for controlling apparatus components, at least one sensor for detecting at least one operating parameter, the sensor being connected to the control unit for transmitting a detection signal, at least one output device for outputting information and connected to the control unit. The control unit is designed to ascertain, in an operation with discontinuous material feed, and based on the at least one detection signal, time information about a future material feed, wherein the output device is designed to output the ascertained time information.
