Abstract
A compact modular mobile aggregate processing system configured with no stand-alone inter-plant conveyors for decreasing the footprint of the system and an infinitely adjustable flow diverter(s) for increasing the control of and variation of output characteristics of the system; the system further including specialized folding conveyors.
Claims20
A method of reconfiguring an aggregate processing system comprising the steps of:
- providing a plurality of crushing machines and a plurality of screening machines arranged in a first configuration so that an output of a first crushing machine is provided to an input of a first screening machine;
- wherein each of said plurality of screening machines is a screening machine configured to output material at a common predetermined output conveyor height;
- wherein each of said plurality of crushing machines is a crushing machine configured to receive material thereon from an outside source at a common predetermined feed point height;
- providing a plurality of conveyors where each of said plurality of conveyors, which extends between both a crushing machine and a screening machine, is integrated with one of said crushing machine and said screening machine;
- and
- reconfiguring said plurality of crushing machines and said plurality of screening machines into a second configuration and creating a new operative combination without making horizontal or vertical adjustments to said plurality of conveyors.

A method of reconfiguring an aggregate processing system comprising the steps of:
- providing a first plurality of aggregate processing machines and a second plurality of aggregate processing machines arranged in a first configuration so that an output of a first aggregate processing machine is provided to an input of a second aggregate processing machine;
- wherein at least one of said first plurality of aggregate processing machines and said second plurality of aggregate processing machines is a screening machine configured to output material at a common predetermined output conveyor height;
- wherein each of said first plurality of aggregate processing machines is a crushing machine configured to receive material thereon from an outside source at a common predetermined feed point heights;
- providing a plurality of conveyors where each of said plurality of conveyors, which extends between both a crushing machine and a screening machine, is integrated with one of said crushing machine and said screening machine;
- and
- reconfiguring said first plurality of aggregate processing machines and said second plurality of aggregate processing machines into a second configuration and creating a new operative combination without making horizontal or vertical adjustments to said plurality of conveyors.
