How much do you know about jaw crusher parts?

 Crusher is an essential mechanical part for mining work. In order to extract the desired material from the rock, you first need to powder it

Break into smaller pieces to find things like ore or coal, which you need. Once its fragments are small enough, the material passes through a screening process. There are many types of crushers, one of the most popular is the jaw crusher. jaw crushers are usually primary crushers, which means they process large pieces of material and break them into smaller pieces before sending them to other crushers before entering the screening process.

Eccentric Shaft

The movable jaw is attached to the eccentric shaft and is where the energy is generated. Also called a connecting rod, the eccentric shaft is rotated by a flywheel that pulls the arm up and causes the toggle

move. This forces the swinging jaws to push outward toward the stationary jaws, crushing the material.

Fixed Jaw Plate

The fixed jaw does not move. Its job is to be the heavy metal that takes the impact of a movable or swinging jaw as it crushes the material. This is crushed and sieved

In the first stage of the process, the ultimate goal is to break the material into pieces small enough for the screening machine to separate the desired material from the unwanted material.

Moveable or Swing Jaw Plate

The job of the movable jaw or swing jaw is to crush the material that has been fed into it by pressing it against the fixed jaw. This is a compression action that requires

Swing the jaws to apply a lot of force to do it. Most jaw crushers are V-shaped. This means that the material in the jaw crusher cannot pass until it is broken enough to pass through the holes in the bottom of the V shape. The angle of the movable plate and the fixed plate can significantly reduce the material.

Toggle Plate 

The function of the toggle plate is to transmit power, play the role of a safety device, and help to adjust the opening of the jaw crusher. It supports movable jaws that help

It is used to transmit the crushing force to the fuselage frame. If a piece of unbreakable material is put into the jaw crusher, the toggle plate will automatically disconnect, making the jaw crusher stop working. This is to protect other parts from being damaged. It can also be adjusted to your needs to allow different sizes of material to pass through.

Cheek Plates

The role of the cheeks is to hold the rock in place as you crush it. Cheeks do wear out quickly because they are subjected to high stress during

Low stress between crushes. However, the constant impact of the material can cause the cheeks to wear out quickly and need to be replaced. Wagner Used Equipment offers new and refurbished crusher parts. Contact us today for more information.

Flywheel

The jaw crusher's flywheel is actually a very important part of what you should know about. The flywheel stores the energy of the jaw crusher during the empty stroke and then releases the energy at the right moment to crush the material. This helps to generate an even load energy, thus saving energy. In fact, there are two flywheels on the jaw crusher, one connecting the V-belt to the eccentric shaft to transfer kinetic energy. The other causes the resistance on the eccentric shaft to change. The two work together to ensure even loading.
