Understanding Cone Crushers
Cone crushers are one of the most widely used types of stone crushers. They are used to reduce the size of large rocks and ores into smaller pieces and granules. They are used in a variety of industries; such as mining, metallurgical, constructive, and chemical & phosphate industry. They may also be used in social/governmental projects such as railway renovation and road building.
Components
A Cone crusher is a very complex machine and consists of a lot of components, but its principal structure remains the same, consisting of:
Principal Shaft: It is used to mount the mental. It is supported by the bearing at the base and is fixed beneath the mantle. Driven by the twisted bevel gears in the counter shaft, the principal shaft itself does not rotate; but it is actually housed in a frame that rotates.
Counter Shaft: The counter shaft produces rotary motion in the cone crusher. There is a sheave on the exterior side of the shaft and a pinion gear on the interior side. The gear drives the housing of the eccentric principal shaft.
Springs: Large springs are part of the safety mechanism in cone crushers, which prevents the occurrence of damage in the course, due to harder and more-solid-rocks. They apply downward pressures on the upper frame to stop harder-rocks that cannot be crushed, from moving on and harm the crusher by entering the cavity.
Manganese Mantle: The Manganese-mantle is one of the crushing surfaces of the machine in question, i.e. the Cone Crusher. It rotates in a spherical movement-pattern through an eccentric lobe like an ice-cream cone machine fills the material inside the cones!
Operation
The working principles of the Cone Crusher are similar to gyratory crushers, with more of a parallel zone and less steepness in the crushing chamber. This one breaks the rocks by crushing and squeezing them between the eccentrically gyrating spindles and enclosing concave hopper. The gyrating spring is covered by the wear resistant mantle and the concave hopper is covered by the bowl liner or manganese concave.
The crushing chamber is the region between the fixed and the movable cone. When the rock or ore enters the Cone Crusher from the top, it halts in the upper area, and gets squeezed between the bowl liner and the mantle. Large pieces are broken and allowed to fall to the lower position where they are smashed again. This process lasts until these pieces are small enough to escape through the narrow opening available for these pieces at the lowest part of the machine i.e. the bottom area.
Benefits
Cone crushers are one of the most advanced and efficient types of rock crushers. They offer numerous benefits, including but not limited to, the big crushing ratio, thin and uniform product size, low power consumption and good grainy products. They consist of energy-saving ultra-fine broken elements of rock. They use covered crushing principle and include a wide product range. Their cavity clearance is more convenient than any other type of crusher-type machine. The use of heavy duty rock, diameter shaft and a separate lubrication system ensures the reliability and durability of the machine.
Conclusion
The working principle of cone crushers makes them an ideal choice for crushing iron ore, non ferrous metal, granite, limestone and cobblestone.
