The role of the thrust plate of the crusher

1. Power transmission
The thrust plate is the part that transmits power to the mobile jaw of the crusher. In the jaw crusher, it plays the role of supporting the movable jaw plate, and transmits the crushing force to the rear wall of the frame.

2. Adjust the discharge port
The thrust plate has the function of adjusting the discharge opening of the jaw crusher, and the width of the discharge opening can be adjusted by replacing the rear thrust plate with different lengths. There are two ways to adjust the ore discharge port, one is to adjust the gasket between the back of the support seat of the rear thrust plate and the rear wall of the frame, and the other is to adjust the two gaps between the back seat of the thrust plate and the frame. wedges.
3. Act as a safety device
In the design, the strength of the thrust plate is deliberately weakened, and the middle opening or segmental bolt connection is adopted. When the crushing chamber falls into the hardware and overloads the equipment, the thrust plate will break by itself or the connecting bolts will be cut off, so that the movable jaw plate will stop moving to protect the crushing chamber. equipment to protect it from damage.
