Abstract

A crusher hammer lifting device facilitates raising and lowering of a hammer mountable at a rotor of a horizontal shaft impact crusher (HSi-crusher). The device includes a main body, a mount engager for attachment to an auxiliary lifting tool and a hammer attachment for releasably mounting the hammer in a rotatable manner at the device.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A crusher hammer lifting device arranged to facilitate raising and lowering of a hammer mountable at a rotor of a horizontal shaft impact crusher, the lifting device comprising:
a main body having a first end and a second end;
a mount engager positioned at or towards the first end of the main body to engage and suspend the device from a lifting tool;
a hammer attachment positioned at or towards the second end of the main body to releasably attach the hammer to the device;
an axle rotatably mounting the attachment at the main body such that the hammer when attached to the device, may be rotated about an axis of the axle relative to the main body; and
a lock mechanism movably mounted at or towards the second end of the main body to lock the axle and the attachment in a non-rotatable fixed position at the main body, wherein the lock mechanism includes a flange extending radially outward from the axle, the attachment being provided at one side of the main body and the flange being provided at an opposite side of the main body.

2. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the main body is elongated and the axis of the axle is aligned transverse and perpendicular to a length of the main body.

3. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lock mechanism includes a lever pivotally mounted at the main body to engage in touching contact at least a part of the flange so as to rotatably lock the axle—and the attachment at the main body.

4. The device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the flange includes a plate like body having at least a first pair of notches recessed into a perimeter of the flange, the lever being pivotally mounted to releasably engage one of the notches to rotatably lock the axle and the attachment at at least two rotational positions.

5. The device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the notches are positioned at diametrically opposite regions of the flange.

6. The device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the lever is elongated and has a first end and a second end, the first end of the lever being mounted at one side of the main body via a pivot mount such that the second end of the lever extends through the main body to project laterally at an opposite side of the main body.

7. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the mount engager comprises any one of an eyelet formed within a fin extending laterally from one side of the main body; a hook extending laterally from one side of the main body; and a projection extending laterally from one side of the main body.

8. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the attachment comprises a plate like body mounted at one end of the axle and having at least a pair of holes receive bolts for attaching the hammer to the attachment.

9. The device as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising at least a first pair of holes-for mounting the hammer at a first position at the attachment and at least a second pair of holes for mounting the hammer at a second position at the attachment.

10. The device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the main body includes an axle mount at or towards the second end of the main body to receive and rotatably mount the axle and the attachment at the main body.

11. The device as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a crusher hammer releasably attached to the device, the hammer including a plurality of threaded bore holes arranged to receive attachment bolts releasably mounting the hammer to the attachment.

12. The device as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the hammer includes a pair of threaded bore holes and the attachment includes two mounting positions for the hammer.
