HTT Y United States Patent 9 CRUSHER HOUSING Edgar R. Brake, Columbus, Ohio, assignor to The J etfrey Manufacturing Company, a corporation of Ohio Application August 26, 1953, Serial No. 376,649
2 Claims. (Cl. 241-285) This invention relates to a housing for a material reducing crusher apparatus, and one object of the invention is to provide an improved housing structure of this type that is of simple yet greatly improved construction.
In carrying out the above object, it is another object of the invention to provide an improved housing structure adapted to enclose a material reducing element, preferably, but not necessarily, in the form of a material reducing rotor in which the wall elements that cooperate to form a material reducing chamber may be swung from their crushing operating positions to permit access to the internal parts of the crusher whereby a workman may clean and/ or repair them.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved crusher housing having opposite sides which may be removed from the housing as a unit to expose the interior of the crushing chamber and crusher rotor normally contained therein.
Other objects of the invention will appear hereinafter, the novel features and combinations being set forth in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 is a View in perspective of a crusher built in accordance with this invention;
Fig. 2 is another view in perspective of the apparatus seen in Fig. l, the view showing the sides of the apparatus opposite those seen in Fig. l; and
Fig. 3 is a view in section, the section being taken through the housing of the apparatus seen in Figs. 1 and 2 and at a right angle with respect to the axis of the material reducing rotor of the apparatus, the view also indicating the paths of swing of opposite side elements of the housing of the apparatus.
The material reducing apparatus shown in the drawtion 12 of the base 11 is built up of a pair of spaced side channel members interconnected by cross plates 16. The smaller rectangular portion 13 of base 11 includes similar channels and plates, with one side channel member 15 and one cross plate 16 being common to both base portions 12 and 13.
A plate 17 extends over the tops of all of the channels and cross plates of the base and is secured thereto to form the top surface of the base 11 upon which various elements of the material reducing crusher assembly are mounted. A similar plate 18 (see Fig. 3) is secured to the bottoms of the channels and plates 15 and 16 to reinforce the latter and to cooperate with all of the base elements to form a rigid box-like structure. Plates 17 and 18 are provided with rectangular openings, as indicated at 19, through which crushed or reduced material may pass to be discharged from the reducing apparatus.
2,756,002 Patented July 24, 1956 The crusher housing 10 which is of novel construction includes a pair of spaced upright end walls 20 and '21, each of which includes a lower portion 22 that is generally trapezoidal in shape, and an upper rectangular portion 23 which rests upon and is removably connected to the lower portion 22 by bolts that extend through abutting fianges on the portions 22 and 23, as indicated at 24. The lower portions of end walls 20 and 21 are each reinforced by a pair of spaced upright plates 25 that carry a bed plate 26 upon which a rotor shaft bearing assembly 27 is mounted, and the bottoms of these plates or gussets 25 are secured to a bottom flange 28 of the wall portion 22.
The crusher includes a crusher rotor assembly 34 that is mounted to rotate on an axis that extends transversely f the spaced end walls 20 and 21. Rotor assembly 34 includes a shaft 35 that extends through and beyond each of the bearing assemblies 27 and upon which there is mounted between the spaced end walls 20 and 21 a rotor body including spaced discs that carry swing hammers 36 which cooperate to reduce materials in the material reducing chamber 33. One end of rotor shaft 35 carries a heavy flywheel 37, and the other end extends into a guard 38 where it may be connected through a coupling, not shown, to the motor, also not shown, mounted on the motor stand 14. Upper and lower wall portions 22 and 23 of walls 20 and 21 cooperate to provide aligned openings through which rotor shaft 35 extends and they each carry a portion of a split shaft seal 39, the function of which is obvious.
As seen in Figs. 1 and 3 of the drawings, the lower portion 22 of each end wall 20 and 21 is generally of trapezoidal shape. More specifically, each wall portion 22 includes an upright plate having parallel top and bottom surfaces, an upright side surface lying at right angles to the top and bottom surfaces, and a side surface that slopes upwardly toward the upright side surface. Upper portion 23 of each end wall 20 and 21 is rectangular and has a width equal to the length of the top surface of portion 22.
It will be seen that the elements of the housing 10 thus far described cooperate to form a pair of spaced upright end walls 20 and 21 between the upper portions of which there is formed a material reducing chamber 33 and that these upright end walls are rigidly interconnected at their tops and bottoms by elements that form feed and discharge openings of the housing 10. It will also be seen that the upper portions 23 of end walls 20 and 21 together with the top plates 31 may be removed as a unit from the bottom portions 22 of the walls 20 and 21 by merely removing the bolts that extend through flanges 24 and lifting the upper elements from the lower elements, thus to expose the rotor assembly 34.
As seen in Fig. 3 of the drawings the rotor assembly 34 rotates in a counter-clockwise direction and at its left side there is a generally upright wall or door 40 that forms one side of the material reducing chamber 33 and which cooperates with the swing hammers 36 of the material reducing rotor assembly 34 to crush and otherwise reduce materiala Side wall 40 includes an upright top portion or. section that merges into a lower curved portion which cooperates directly with the rotor assembly 34 when the crusher apparatus is operating to reduce material.
At and adjacent their lower ends flanges 42 carry long removable bolts 45 that extend transversely between the end Walls 20 and 21 and through arcuately slotted openings therein. These bolts together with nuts and washers positioned on their ends cooperate to function as adjusting means for permitting the side wall 40 to be adjusted with respect to the rotor assembly 34 and to lock side wall 40 in the desired adjusted position.
The generally upright side of housing opposite side wall 40 includes an upper portion, section or door 46 and a generally similar lower portion, section or door 47 that extend transversely between the end walls and 21 and which may be swung to expose therotor assembly 34 and the interior of the material reducing chamber 33. These portions, sections or doors 46 and 47 are constructed of elements similar to those comprised in the wall or door 40, the upper portion, section or door 46 being mounted for pivotal swinging, movement about a rod or bar 48 at its top, and the lower portion, section or door 47 being similarly mounted on a rod or bar 49 adjacent its bottom. When the portions, sections or doors 46 and 47 are positioned to close or form a side of the housing 10 and the material reducing chamber 33 they are secured together by bolts 50 that extend throughadjacent end flanges of the doors 46 and 47, and bolts 51 are placed through aligned openings in the end walls 20 and 21 and the flanges of the doors 46 and 47 to lock them securely to the end walls 20 and 21.
The machine shown in the drawings may be employed with particular advantage in reducing materials which may have sticky characteristics, .such, for example, as phosphates. When materials having this characteristic are being reduced they tend to gum up the crusher, and this invention provides a crusher, opposite sides of which may be readily swung open to permit cleaning or servicing of the interior surfaces and/or parts of the crusher. As indicated in dot-dash lines in Fig. 3 of the drawings,
the door 40 may be swung to expose one side of the material reducing chamber 33 and one side of the rotor assembly 34, and the doors 46 and 47 may be swung to together about either the rod 48 or 49 by removing the bolts 51 and one or the other of the rods 48 or 49." It will also be obvious that the upper portions 23 of the end walls 20 and 21, the top plates 31,.thedoor 40, and
Obviously those skilled in the art may makevarious changes in the details and arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the claims hereto appended, and applicant therefore wishes not to be restricted to the precise construction herein disclosed.
