Abstract
Abstract A single-roll crusher has a crushing roll formed with a plurality of hammers and disposed above an anvil or breaker plate which can form the bottom of a trough through which a conveyor passes to carry the material to be crushed into the breaker and the crushed product therefrom. The height of the central portion of the roll above the anvil plate defines the maximum size of the material which can be comminuted. To stabilize the rotation of the roll and yet permit this distance to be relatively great, a pair of massive circular spinning disks are mounted on the roll shaft coaxial with the roll. The disks flank the channel through which the material passes.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
A single-roll crusher, especially for coal and similar minerals, comprising a housing, a bifurcated support pivotally mounted on said housing, a crusher roll journaled on said support and provided with a plurality of hammers, an anvil plate disposed below said crusher roll and cooperating with said hammers to comminute mineral pieces passing through a throad between said roll and said anvil plate, and a pair of rotating disks mounted on the extremities of said roll and flanking said hammers, said roll having a shaft journaled on said support and forming the axis for said disks, said disks resisting upward forces on said roll and imparting thereto a moment of inertia positionally stabilizing same.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
113 words
A single-roll crusher, especially for coal and similar minerals, comprising a housing, a bifurcated support pivotally mounted on said housing, a crusher roll journaled on said support and provided with a plurality of hammers, an anvil plate disposed below said crusher roll and cooperating with said hammers to comminute mineral pieces passing through a throad between said roll and said anvil plate, and a pair of rotating disks mounted on the extremities of said roll and flanking said hammers, said roll having a shaft journaled on said support and forming the axis for said disks, said disks resisting upward forces on said roll and imparting thereto a moment of inertia positionally stabilizing same.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
35 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 1 wherein said disks define the lateral width of said throat and the distance between said roll intermediate said disks and said plate is the height of said throat.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
70 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 1 wherein said housing encloses said roll and has a pair of lateral walls, said lateral walls being disposed between respective arms of said bifurcated support and a respective one of said disks, said lateral walls being formed with guide slots traversed by said shaft and enabling the vertical displacement thereof, said disks covering said slots and preventing the escape of comminuted material therethrough.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 3 wherein said hammers define an impact circle diameter and said disks have diameters at least equal to said impact circle diameter.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 4 wherein each of said hammers is formed as a disk segment, said segments being disposed in pairs offset by 180° about the axis of said shaft.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
17 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 5, further comprising spacer rings separating said segments from one another.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
25 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 6 wherein said disks together have a mass of 5 to 80% of the total mass of said roll.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
34 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 7 wherein said anvil forms the base of a channel, said crusher further comprising a flight conveyor for displacing mineral pieces along said anvil plate through said channel.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
39 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 8 wherein said support has a pair of arms each provided with a respective journal block and rotatably supporting an end of said shaft, said disks being disposed proximal to said journal blocks.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
18 words
The single-roll crusher defined in claim 9, further comprising respective height adjustment means engaging each of said arms.
