The flywheel is a very conspicuous big part of the jaw crusher
Many people are curious about what the flywheel does? There are two flywheels on the jaw crusher. One flywheel is used to connect the triangle belt and the eccentric shaft, and the other one does not seem to have any effect from the appearance. The weight of the equipment is increased in vain, can't it be removed? The following will be announced one by one for everyone.
In fact, flywheel is an indispensable part of all mining equipment, and it is also a key part. In various crusher equipment, flywheel plays an irreplaceable role. Therefore, flywheel cannot be removed. The flywheel also plays a very important role in the operation of the equipment.
From the appearance of the jaw crusher equipment, it is not difficult to see that there are two large iron wheels on both sides of the jaw crusher equipment. These two wheels are what we call flywheels. Two flywheels are at the two ends of the eccentric shaft. One flywheel is used to connect the triangle belt and the eccentric shaft to transmit kinetic energy; the other is a flywheel that is useless in the eyes of many people. In fact, this flywheel plays a role in the operation of the jaw crusher Crucial role.
The main reason is to start with the working principle of the jaw crusher. The jaw crusher is an indirect working device, which leads to changes in the resistance on the eccentric shaft, uneven motor load, and fluctuations in mechanical speed. And this flywheel is installed in order to make the motor load uniform, reduce the rated power of the motor and reduce the fluctuation of the mechanical speed.
The flywheel stores the energy during the idle stroke of the jaw crusher and releases it when the movable jaw squeezes the material. That is, the flywheel accumulates energybwhen the movable jaw leaves the fixed jaw, and transfers the accumulated energy to the crusher when it is closed. This can make the load of the motor tend to be uniform, thereby reducing the rated power of the motor. It is precisely because of the flywheel that the energy consumption of the jaw crusher can be evened.
