What is the role of the flywheel of the jaw crusher?

2025-01-25 Visits:

The flywheel is a very conspicuous big guy in the jaw crusher. Many people are curious about what the flywheel does?There are two flywheels on the jaw crusher. One of the flywheels is used to connect the triangle belt and the eccentric shaft. The other does not seem to have any effect from the appearance. It is useless to increase the weight of the equipment. Can't it be removed?The Xiaobian of XKJ Machinery will be announced one by one for everyone below.


In fact, the flywheel is an inseparable component of all mining equipment, and it is also a key component. In various crusher equipment, the flywheel plays an irreplaceable role. Therefore, the flywheel cannot be removed. At the same time, 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.The two flywheels are at both ends of the eccentric shaft. One of the flywheels is used to connect the triangle belt and the eccentric shaft to transmit kinetic energy; the other is a useless flywheel in the eyes of many people. In fact, this flywheel plays a vital role in the operation of the jaw crusher.The main reason is to start from the working principle of the jaw crusher. The jaw crusher is an indirect working equipment, which leads to changes in the resistance on the eccentric shaft, uneven motor load, and fluctuations in mechanical rate.This flywheel is installed to make the motor load evenly, reduce the rated power of the motor, and reduce mechanical rate fluctuations.


The flywheel stores the energy of the jaw crusher during the empty stroke, and then releases it when the jaw squeezes the material.That is, when the movable jaw plate leaves the fixed jaw plate, the flywheel accumulates energy, and when it is closed, the flywheel transfers the accumulated energy for the use of the crusher's materials, so that the load on the motor can 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 even.


Here, XKJ Machinery has another point to say. Not all jaw crushers have only one flywheel connected to the V-belt, and there are also two flywheels connected to the V-belt. For example, large jaw crushers with two motors are also dual-use. Treat both flywheels as pulleys connected to the V-belt.This not only simplifies the mechanism of the equipment, but also makes the best use of it.
