Renewable tip hammer for a crusher

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Abstract An improved hammer design for a swing-hammer type crushing machine. The hammer is in at least two pieces a shank, and a detachable tip section. The shank is pivotably mounted at one end on a rod extending between a pair of radial discs spaced along the machine rotor. The tip section is joined to the shank by a simple connecting pin which passes through co-aligned holes in a bifurcation on the tip and a lug extending outwardly from the shank. Spaced apart tabs at the free end of the shank co-operate with a stop on the rotor to limit the pivotal movement of the hammer between predetermined limits such that the connecting pin is always confined between the pair of rotor discs during …
