Abstract:
A roller press is disclosed. The roller press [1] may comprise a pair of side-by-side rollers [22] configured to form a nip there between. The roller press [1] may further be configured to grind or crush feed material. Each of the side-by-side rollers [22] may share a first end and a second end. A pair of cheek plate assemblies [100, 200, 300, 400] may be provided to the roller press [1], wherein one cheek plate assembly [100, 200, 300, 400] is provided adjacent said first end of the rollers [22] and another cheek plate assembly [100, 200, 300, 400] is provided adjacent said second end of the rollers [22].
Abstract:
A comminution device configured to comminute material is disclosed. According to some embodiments the comminution device may comprise a first cylindrical roll having a first axis; and a second cylindrical roll having a second axis; wherein the first axis may be substantially parallel with the second axis to form a nip between the first cylindrical roll and the second cylindrical roll during operation of the comminution device. A first drive 50 may be operatively connectable to the first cylindrical roll, and a second drive 50 may be operatively connectable to the first cylindrical roll. The first drive 50 and the second drive 50 may be connected to a mount 10; wherein the mount 10 may be supported by an upper base 30. The mount 10 is movable along a direction (A-Axis), which is substantially parallel with the first and/or second axis. Also disclosed, is a drive assembly 1 for a comminution device and a method of removing a drive assembly 1 from a comminution device.

Abstract:
A comminution device can include a crushing body extraction mechanism. The crushing body extraction mechanism can be configured to permit one or more crushing bodies (e.g. rollers of a roller press, etc.) to be continuously moved linearly away from a frame to expose the crushing bodies from the frame. In some embodiments, the extraction mechanism may be configured to utilize one or more rack and pinion mechanisms. The pinion for each such mechanism may be powered by one or more rotary motors or other type of rotary drive mechanism. In other embodiments, the extraction mechanism can include one or more rack and ratchet mechanisms. Each rack and ratchet mechanism may include a hydraulic cylinder or other linear actuator that is extendable and retractable for actuating motion of a ratchet along a rack having columns of differently angled steps to facilitate extension and retraction of one or more crushing bodies.

Abstract:
A roller press arrangement, a connection device for movably attaching certain parts to the roller press and a method for more easily performing maintenance on such parts is disclosed. The roller press comprises a frame assembly and a force generation device. The force generation device configured to move so that it is removable when top members of the frame assembly are connected to the side members of the frame assembly and fixed in a closed horizontal position. The connection device for attaching a force generation device to the frame assembly comprises a mounting plate and a hinge. The hinge is rotatable so that the force generation device is removable when top members of the frame assembly are connected to side members of the frame assembly and the top members of the frame assembly are fixed in a closed horizontal position.
