HAROLD IVI. PLAISTED, OF ST LOUIS, MISSOURI, ASSIGNOR TO WILLIAMS PATENT CRUSHER AND PULVERIZER COMPANY, OF ST LOUIS, MISSOURI, A CORPORATION OF MISSOURI.
CRUSHER AND PULVERIZER.
Application filed August 8, 1921. Serial No. 490,617.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HAROLD M. PLArs'rnD, a citizen of the United States, residing at St. Louis. State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Crushers and Pulverizers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in crushers and pulverizers, the peculiarities of which will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
The main object of my invention is the provision of a rotor having hammers that are pivoted relatively near the hammer circle and extend circumferentially from their pivot (instead of radially from the center of the rotor as usual) and have a normal outward tendency so that they react inward practically radially under the resistance of the material being crushed between said hammers and a breaker plate and cage cooperating therewith; secondly. to provide a spring or other cushion for each of said hammers. so mounted and protected that it is not exposed to the material being crushed and is therefore not liable to become packed solid by the crushed material; thirdly. to provide a rotor grinding face that is practically continuous and having portions that extend beyond the main face of the rotor and are resilient. so that the said projecting portions react inward under extreme crushing resistance: and fourthly, to provide a bar cage having spacing members that allow the. full length of the cage bars for grinding. and facilitate the discharge of the crushed material through the openings between the bars.
In the accompanying drawing on which like reference letters indicate corresponding parts. Fig. 1. represents a vertical sectional view across the shaft. cage and casing. and a rotor in side elevation. in a machine exemplifying my invention:
Fig. 2. a sectional elevation of the same on a plane 2-2 of Fig. 1:
Fig. 3. a face view of an enlarged detail of my spacing member for cage bars:
Fig. -'l. an edge view of the same:
Fig. 5, a partial section of the cage on the plane 3-3 of Fig. 2; and Fig. 6, an enlarged side view of a. portion of mv pivoted hammer and its bearing. i
The letter A designates the shaft of a rotor, and B the rotor head provided with multiple pockets 0 in the circumferential face, said pockets being separated by the interposed portions of the outer face of the head and preferably provided with corrugations B as shown in Fig. 1. Each pocket has a pivot bearing D at one side thereof and relatively near the outer face of the head. and separated from said face by a retaining lip E, Fig. 6. The opposite side of each pocket has a shoulder F. Fig. 1. projecting from the side wall G. which wall curves radially inward toward the shaft A and is connected by a wall H to the pivot bearing first named.
A corresponding number of pivoted hammers are mounted in said pockets. each hammer having a semi-cylindrical pivot end I adapted to fit the similar hearing I). and having a grinding surface preferably provided with fluted corrugations J. which project successively further outward from the circumferential face of the rotor head as the grinding face of each hammer extends circumferentially from the pivot towards the opposite side of the pocket. The hammer thus closes the pocket in which it is mounted, the opposite end of the hammer being formed on an arc J struck from the center of the pivot. The shoulder F is curved on its face to match the end J of the hammer, so as to slidingly engage the curved face J and retain the pivot in its.bea1'ing. The face J ends in a lip K at the inner end. which opposes the shoulder F as the hammer swings outward under the centrifugal force of rotation. lt preferred however. to increase the out ard tendency and reaction on the material being crushed. by
mounting a spring L. or other resilient length of the cushion is shorter than the space between the sides of the casing as shown in Fig. 2, to allow for expansion of the rubber under compression. The rotor head tits closely between the sides M of the 'asing and the pockets C are thus closed at i the sides and with the hammers closing the space between the pivot bearing and the shoulder F. very little finely crushed material can enter the chamber. To discharge this material I provide an aperture N, in each side of the casing below the shaft and in the path of the pockets, through which aperture any such material readily finds exit.
Between the shoulder F and the hammer lip h, I provide strips 0, or other means for adjusting the outward projection of the ham-' mer, and these strips or other means can be manipulated through the same apertures N, as the strips lie at the same radial distance from the shaft A as the aperture N and being carried by the rotor, the strips rotatably pass said apertures in the casing and are thus accessible for adjustment and variation.
The pivot end of the hammer is )referably provided with a guarding flange l adjacent the retaining lip E, and said lip has a portion of its outer about the center of the pivot I, and said flange has a matching curved face R. The length of this are corresponds to the same angle S Fig. 1, as the angle S Fig. 6, where the inward movement of the hammer, indicated by dotted lines, shows that the guarding flange does not leave an opening at the retaining lip in operation. The material is kept out of the pivot bearing by this guard flange.
A continuous grinding face with portions projecting and forming hammers that react radially, is thus formed, and the hammer circle T passes through the outer end of each hammer. \Vhen the hammer wears down, it can be adjusted further outward by removing one or more of the strips 0 between the hammer lip and limit shoulder of each pocket.
A bar cage preferably used with this rotor head, comprises bars U "the inner face of which are wider than the outer face, and the opening between the bars is narrower at the inner than the outer face of the bars. To separate these bars, spacing members V are used consisting of pieces having slanting faces 4, matching opposing faces of the bars and having at the upper end 5, a point or transverse ridge with deflecting surfaces 6 extending transversely across the opening between the bars and forming a sharp inter section or transverse ridge at the top of the pieces substantially at bars. The point 5 is mounted further outward radially than the inner faces of the bars, so that the full effective length of the right angles to the face Q, formed in an arc bars between the casing sides is available for grinding. The deflecting surfaces (3 direct the crushed material from the spacing members and prevents its lodging thereon. The point 5 located below the inner face of the bar, will allow of the cage bars wearing without affecting the point In each spacer preferably, is a hole 7 matching with a similar hole in each bar ll when mounted as shown, and through this opening a supporting member, such as a rivet bolt 8, Fig. 5, passes, and connects a series of bars, and supports intervening spacing members. The bar ends have spacers V beveled on one side only, and supported and connected by similar rivet bolts.
A hopper inlet 5) for the casing of this machine is provided, and just below the discharge end of said hopper is a recess 10, having sides formed by the walls M, and top and bottom walls 11 and 12 inclined to a back wall 13, so as to receive a breaker plate ll having similar inclined top and bottom faces to match those of the recess, and having an opening in each inclined face to be engaged by a cap screw 15, or other means to hold the plate in place at the top while the inclined face 1:2 holds the bottom of the breaker plate, whichever operative face is exposed; one operative f'a'ce of the plate is corrugated larger than the opposite face, or in a different manner, so that when mounted in the recess 10 a corresponding grinding effect may be obtained by using either face in connection with the rotor.
The casing of the machine also has a curved wall 16 Fig. 1, adjacent to the hopper 9, that forms a chamber provided with a passage 17, tapering downward in front of the hopper and communicating with the rotor chamber near the inner end of the hopper and the hammer circle. This chamber has an outlet pipe 18, having a regulating valve 19 for varying the size of the outlet opening, and communicating with an exhaust fan or other means for suction as indicated, by which the finely crushed material is taken out through said pipe 18, when carried over by the hammers.
This form of hammer. under the crushing action. will react inward practically radially to the shaft. and thus quickly pass a lump of the material too large to be crushed in one operation. This quick radially inward movement, is due to the location of the pivot of the hammer as far outward on the head as is practicable, and to the circumferential location of the hammers grinding face with regard to said pivot.
\Vhile it is preferred to arrange the hammers as shown with regard to the direction of rotation shown by the arrow. thereby ctlecting a crushing and gradual pulverizing ofthc material operated on, I may obtain a coarser action of crushing by reversing the shaft and head in the rotor chamber and rotating so that the crushing action is exerted by the face J of the hammers opposite the pivot points. Since the face J is an are about the center L, the crushing resistance would then be exerted directly on the pivot bearing D, and if the size is too great to allow of crushing the lump in one engagement, the hammer would be forced inward radially toward the shaft and allow the lump to pass by for engagement by the next succeeding hammers, or interposed portion of the outer face of the had. Thus a coarse crushing effect is obtained, as compared to the crushing and pulverizing' effect obtained by rotating the head and hammers in the direction indicated by the arrows.
