A first annular seal member on the base of a gyratory rock crusher is associated with a second annular seal member on the crusher cone. These two seal members have cooperating spherical surfaces which rub slidably together in the gyratory movements. An air sealing chamber is formed by the sealing members and other portions of the crusher and is associated with an annular groove in the first seal member having an inlet with a forced air system in an arrangement wherein air currents intercept dust moving along the spherical surfaces and also carry such dust away from inner portions of the crusher.

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 24, 1990 and granted June 23, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 24, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 24, 2012.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
