DEF

A machine for reducing the size of materials by means of a truncated cone revolving on its vertical axis within an outer chamber, the annular space between the outer chamber and cone being tapered.

CONT

The Symons cone crusher... has a gyratory motion, but has a much flatter mantle or cone than does the gyratory crusher. The top bowl is spring-mounted. It is used as a primary or secondary crusher.

OBS

According to the McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, primary crushing yields particles of 4-9 in. [100-255 mm], and secondary crushing yields particles of 1/2-1 in. [12.5-25.4 mm].

DEF

Concasseur comportant une chambre tronconique à l'intérieur de laquelle tourne un tronc de cône autour de son axe. Cet axe décrit lui-même simultanément un cône dont le sommet se trouve au centre de l'orifice de sortie du concasseur.

CONT

[Il existe] une variante [...] du concasseur giratoire : le concasseur à cône, dans lequel la pièce mobile affecte la forme d'un cône très évasé [...] Quoique apparenté mécaniquement au giratoire, le concasseur à cône en diffère assez sensiblement par son mode opératoire car, du fait de la grande course et de la grande vitesse de déplacement de l'organe mobile, la capacité de production est considérablement augmentée.

OBS

concassage : Réduction en fragments compris entre 25 et 100 cm.

OBS

concasseur conique : terme normalisé par l'ISO.

The Gates gyratory crusher has a cone or mantle that does not rotate but is moved eccentrically by the lower bearing sleeve. A 42-by 134-in. crusher has a capacity of 850 tons/hr, crushing rock from 27 to 8 in.

OBS

According to the McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, gyratory crushers are used both in primary crushing, which yields particles of 4-9 in. [100-225 mm], and secondary crushing, which yields particles of 1/2-1 in. [12. 5-25. 4 mm].

English

Subject field(s)
  • Mining Equipment and Tools
  • Processing of Mineral Products
DEF

A widely used machine as a primary breaker of coal, rock or ore in mines. It consists essentially of a hollow cone-shaped chamber in which an inner solid cone gyrates on an eccentric bearing. It has a reduction ratio of about 6 and breaks down to a size of about 2 in. It is usual to screen out the fine sizes from run-of-mine coal before feeding it to a gyratory breaker.

CONT

There are three types of gyratories - those that have the greatest movement on the smallest lump, those that have equal movement for all lumps, and those that have greatest movement on the largest lump.

PHR

Tank of a gyratory crusher.

PHR

Conical gyratory crusher.

DEF

Concasseur dans lequel la fragmentation des éléments est effectuée par une noix animée d'un mouvement giratoire excentrique à l'intérieur d'un entonnoir fixe.

CONT

Les concasseurs giratoires sont constitués d'un cône tournant et oscillant dans une cuve très robuste. L'ouverture a une forme annulaire, et un concasseur de 300 mm d'ouverture peut admettre des morceaux ayant en moyenne 150 X 200 X 250 mm. Ces appareils conviennent particulièrement pour la fabrication des gravillons.

PHR

Bol d'un concasseur giratoire.
