2.5 Discharge Arrangement
Since the discharge arrangement varies with each
installation, a discharge compartment or chute is
not furnished with the Crusher. Either metal or
wood may be used for the discharge compartment.
An inspection door should be provided in the
compartment so that the inside of the compartment
is readily accessible for cleaning or inspection. A
shelf or ledge should be constructed within the
discharge compartment. The shelf will provide a
dead bed of crushed material on which the falling
material will hit. The shelf will absorb much of the
impact before the material falls onto the conveying
equipment, adding considerable life to such
equipment.
If a chute is to be used, the slope of the chute must
be more than 45° with the horizontal and, if
material is very sticky, the angle of inclination
should be increased.
There should be sufficient clearance, between the
main frame and the bottom of the discharge
compartment and between the discharge opening or
chute and the conveying belt or elevator. Adequate
clearance at these points will prevent material from
clogging the discharge area and causing it to build
up under the head and interfere with the operation
of the Crusher. This will ensure a free unimpeded
discharge of crushed material.
2.6 Type of Drive
The standard recommendation for driving the
Crusher is through a V-belt drive. The V-belt drive
is particularly desirable because of, first its feature
which prevents crusher shock loads from being
transferred to the crusher motor and, secondly, its
ability to carry surge loads without a resultant loss
in crusher speed.
The V-belt drive can consist of either single or
banded belts. See Figure 2-7.
