Abstract
A discharge cone casting for the discharge end of a rotary mill is disclosed which is integrally cast in a single component. The casting specifically consists of a generally flat base member adapted to conform to the discharge end of the mill and having converging sides, a top member having converging sides similar to those of the base member and disposed in overlying relation but also including a portion that extends beyond the base member and curving toward its plane, and an interconnecting web extending transversely between the base and top member to define a generally I-shaped cross section. Mounting bolt holes are formed through the upstanding web to enable the discharge cone casting to be bolted directly to the mill end as a single unit.
Claims13
A discharge cone casting for the discharge end of a rotary mill, comprising:
- a generally flat base member having a bottom surface adapted to conform to the mill discharge end and a top surface, the base member generally taking the form of a truncated triangle and having a predetermined longitudinal dimension with converging sides;
- a top member having converging sides similar to those of the base member and a greater longitudinal dimension, one portion of the top member being generally flat and disposed in substantially parallel, overlying relation to the base member, and a second portion of the top member extending beyond the base member and curving toward the plane thereof;
- and an interconnecting web member extending transversely between the base and top members and disposed centrally thereof to define a generally I-shaped cross section therewith, the web member being integrally formed with said base and top members to create a jointless single casting.
