Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
262 words
In a portable slag beneficiating plant for processing steel mill slag and separating metallic pieces therefrom and classifying the metallic pieces as to particle size, a frame, a feed hopper on said frame, support springs on said frame, an inclined grizzly on said support springs and positioned beneath said feed hopper, an eccentric device attached to said inclined grizzly for oscillating the same, a magnetic separating roll and a conveyor belt extending from beneath said inclined grizzly to and trained over said magnetic separating roll and arranged to drive the same, second support springs on said frame, a second grizzly on said second support spring and positioned beneath said magnetic separating roll, a second eccentric device attached to said second grizzly for oscillating the same, said second grizzly arranged to receive metallic pieces from said magnetic separating roll and a second belt conveyor extending from beneath a portion of said second grizzly to a point adjacent one end of said frame, a source of fluid pressure, a hydraulic motor connected to said first mentioned eccentric device for actuating the same, a second hydraulic motor connected to said eccentric device for actuating the same, a third hydraulic motor connected to said magnetic separating roll for driving the same and the first mentioned conveyor belt and a fourth hydraulic motor connected to said second conveyor for moving the same, hydraulic piping interconnecting said source of fluid pressure and said hydraulic motors individually and throttle valves controlling said piping whereby said hydraulic motors may be individually controlled by the individual manipulation of said throttle valves.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
262 words
In a portable slag beneficiating plant for processing steel mill slag and separating metallic pieces therefrom and classifying the metallic pieces as to particle size, a frame, a feed hopper on said frame, support springs on said frame, an inclined grizzly on said support springs and positioned beneath said feed hopper, an eccentric device attached to said inclined grizzly for oscillating the same, a magnetic separating roll and a conveyor belt extending from beneath said inclined grizzly to and trained over said magnetic separating roll and arranged to drive the same, second support springs on said frame, a second grizzly on said second support spring and positioned beneath said magnetic separating roll, a second eccentric device attached to said second grizzly for oscillating the same, said second grizzly arranged to receive metallic pieces from said magnetic separating roll and a second belt conveyor extending from beneath a portion of said second grizzly to a point adjacent one end of said frame, a source of fluid pressure, a hydraulic motor connected to said first mentioned eccentric device for actuating the same, a second hydraulic motor connected to said eccentric device for actuating the same, a third hydraulic motor connected to said magnetic separating roll for driving the same and the first mentioned conveyor belt and a fourth hydraulic motor connected to said second conveyor for moving the same, hydraulic piping interconnecting said source of fluid pressure and said hydraulic motors individually and throttle valves controlling said piping whereby said hydraulic motors may be individually controlled by the individual manipulation of said throttle valves.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
66 words
The portable slag beneficiating plant set forth in claim 1 and wherein a third conveyor is disposed beneath said second grizzly and said second grizzly is arranged to separate metallic pieces into at least three size ranges, said second conveyor belt positioned to receive one of said three size ranges of metallic pieces and convey them to a point spaced with respect to said second grizzly.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
56 words
The portable slag beneficiating plant set forth in claim 1 and wherein said first and second grizzlys include spaced bars, vertical vanes on the bars of said first grizzly, the bars of the second grizzly being wider and hence more closely spaced at their ends beneath said magnetic separator roll with respect to their opposite ends.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
40 words
The portable slag beneficiating plant set forth in claim 1 and wherein said throttle valves are positioned in a group at a location on said plant from which the feed hopper, the grizzlys and the magnetic separator roll are visible.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
31 words
The portable slag beneficiating plant set forh in claim 1 and wherein said conveyor extends from a point below said first grizzly on an incline upwardly to said magnetic separating roll.
