| Stone Mortar Mixer line receives patent  Stone Construction Equipment has received a patent for the removable seal and bearing housing on the Champion line of Mortar Mixers. The housing, which attaches with three bolts, contains Stone's patented quadruple seal and bearing configuration. The removable housing makes servicing easier and quicker, thereby reducing downtime and maximizing uptime. The patent includes the housing, which facilitates servicing of the seals and bearing; an opening in the housing which allows contamination to drop out before reaching the bearing; the unique built-in puller flange for easy removal of the bearing; and the method of attaching the housing to the end walls of the mixer.The removable housing is standard on all sizes of both steel and poly drum Stone Mortar Mixers from 4 cu. ft. to 16 cu. ft., and is included on the HM1290 Hydraulic Mixer and the new 12 cu. ft. and 20 cu. ft. Silo Mixers. The removable housing provides quick and easy servicing or replacement of the seals or the bearing without requiring the paddle shaft to be cut. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
