Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
184 words
An improved mating mantle-bowl structure for a crusher wherein a drive unit provides a gyratory movement between said mantle-bowl structure to afford a crushing action, comprising: a mantle defined as a figure of revolution and including an externally defined conical section of substantially linear external taper and an external throat portion thereabove, said mantle comprising a base metal casting with an external surface layer extending over said externally defined conical section comprising a hard metal in relation to said base metal and being of at least seven-sixteenths of an inch in thickness; and a bowl member for telescopically receiving said mantle, said bowl member including an internally defined conical section of substantially linear internal taper to mate with said externally defined conical section of said mantle, and further including an external throat portion above said internally defined conical section, said bowl member comprising a base metal casting with an internal surface layer extending over said internally defined conical section, said internal surface layer comprising a hard metal in relation to said base metal and being of at least seven-sixteenths of an inch in thickness.

An improved mating mantle-bowl structure for a crusher wherein a drive unit provides a gyratory movement between said mantle-bowl structure to afford a crushing action, comprising: a mantle defined as a figure of revolution and including an externally defined conical section of substantially linear external taper and an external throat portion thereabove, said mantle comprising a base metal casting with an external surface layer extending over said externally defined conical section comprising a hard metal in relation to said base metal and being of at least seven-sixteenths of an inch in thickness; and a bowl member for telescopically receiving said mantle, said bowl member including an internally defined conical section of substantially linear internal taper to mate with said externally defined conical section of said mantle, and further including an external throat portion above said internally defined conical section, said bowl member comprising a base metal casting with an internal surface layer extending over said internally defined conical section, said internal surface layer comprising a hard metal in relation to said base metal and being of at least seven-sixteenths of an inch in thickness.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
A structure according to claim 1 wherein said layers of hard metal are arc weld deposited.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
25 words
A structure according to claim 1 wherein said mantle and bowl members define a substantially enlarged annular feeding throat above said sections of linear taper.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
A structure according to claim 1 wherein said surface layers comprise a plurality of layers of weld metal of different individual hardness.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
30 words
A structure according to claim 1 wherein said surface layers comprise a hard metal component layer having a carbon content over 3 percent and a chrome content over 20 percent.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
43 words
A structure according to claim 1 wherein said surface layers comprise a plurality of layers of weld metal of different individual hardness and include a hard metal component layer having a carbon content over 3 percent and a chrome content over 20 percent.
