Bearings are core components in jaw crushers, facilitating rotational motion and load-bearing at connections between the eccentric shaft, swing jaw, and frame. Typically spherical roller bearings, they consist of inner/outer rings (GCr15 steel), spherical rollers, cages (brass/stamped steel), and seals (IP54+), designed to withstand radial/axial loads and accommodate angular misalignment. Manufacturing involves forging, spheroidizing annealing, precision grinding, and heat treatment (61–65 HRC for rings). Quality control includes chemical analysis, dimensional checks (tolerances ≤0.005 mm), hardness testing, and MT/UT for defects. With a 8000–12000 hour service life, they ensure efficient crusher operation through high precision and durability, dependent on proper lubrication and maintenance.
The eccentric shaft, a core component of jaw crushers, converts rotational motion into the swing jaw's reciprocation via its eccentric structure, comprising main/eccentric shaft necks, a shaft body, and transition fillets. Made of high-strength alloys (e.g., 40CrNiMo), it undergoes forging (or casting for small models), precision machining (grinding to IT6 tolerance), and heat treatment (quenching/tempering) for strength (tensile strength ≥800 MPa). Quality control includes material composition checks, UT/MT for internal/surface defects, and dynamic balance testing (residual unbalance ≤10 g·cm). With a 5–8 year service life, it ensures stable crusher operation under high loads.
