Abstract
A compact and light-weight jaw crusher, in which life span of parts enduring abrasion is long, and an outlet clearance of a crushing chamber is easily adjusted, is provided. For this purpose, the jaw crusher includes a stationary jaw (3) fixedly provided at a frame (2), a movable jaw (5) which is provided to oppose the stationary jaw and attached swingably with an eccentric drive shaft (4), a movable jaw load receiving section (10) attached to the frame, and a coupling joint (23) which is a connecting member for connecting a lower portion of the movable jaw and the movable jaw load receiving section and swingably connects the lower portion of the movable jaw and the movable jaw load receiving section.
Claims7
A jaw crusher, comprising:
- a stationary jaw fixedly attached to a frame;
- a movable jaw which is arranged to oppose said stationary jaw and attached swingably to an eccentric drive shaft;
- a movable jaw load receiving section attached to said frame;
- and
- a connecting member that swingably connects a lower portion of said movable jaw and said movable jaw load receiving section, said connecting member being connected by respective pin coupling joints to said lower portion of said movable jaw and said movable jaw load receiving section.
A jaw crusher, comprising:
- a stationary jaw fixedly attached to a frame;
- a movable jaw which is arranged to oppose said stationary jaw and attached swingably to an eccentric drive shaft;
- a movable jaw load receiving section attached to said frame;
- and
- a connecting member for connecting a lower portion of said movable jaw and said movable jaw load receiving section,
- wherein said movable jaw load receiving section comprises a rotatable link mechanism including a hydraulic cylinder with a close fit mechanism,
- said jaw crusher further comprising a hydraulic circuit which makes said hydraulic cylinder with the close fit mechanism open during a crushing operation so that oil pressure is not maintained in the hydraulic cylinder during the crushing operation and a position of said hydraulic cylinder is maintained by frictional resistance of the close fit mechanism during the crushing operation.
A jaw crusher, comprising:
- a stationary jaw fixedly attached to a frame;
- a movable jaw which is arranged to oppose said stationary jaw and attached swingably to with an eccentric drive shaft;
- a movable jaw load receiving section attached to said frame;
- and
- a connecting member for connecting a lower portion of said movable jaw and said movable jaw load receiving section,
- wherein said movable jaw load receiving section comprises a rotatable link mechanism including a hydraulic cylinder with a close fit mechanism, and
- wherein said close fit mechanism comprises a piston that fits closely within a cylinder and is held against movement therein by frictional resistance, and a means for reducing said frictional resistance to allow said piston to be moved within said cylinder for adjusting an outlet clearance between the stationary jaw and the movable jaw.
