Spare parts
All electronics including three video cameras,
one connected to a time lapse video recorder used
for invoicing, one viewing the shaker screen and
outfeed belt and the third is overlooking the
Waterbath. All three cameras are transmitted
wirelessly to two monitors in the wheel loader with
a range of over 500 feet. A six function remote
control with a range of over 500 feet (1” x 2” x 6”)
the operator uses to start, stop, reverse conveyors
and operate the rock grizzly.
Condition Monitor & Warning System.
A box containing indicator lights and a warning
buzzer in the loader that receives wireless signals
from the Waterbath and infeed to keep the operator
informed of current conditions including:
- Infeed conveyor stopped. Several conditions
will stop the infeed including;
- The VCR in not operating.
- The outfeed belt is overloaded.
- A boulder approximately 12” or larger is
at the bottom of the outfeed belt. The
operator can see the boulder in the monitor
to determine if it needs to be ejected. If
so he resets the conveyor and lowers the
grizzly to eject the boulder with the remote
control.
- Low oil pressure or high water temperature
on water bath engine.
- Hydraulic oil level dropping.
- The float in the water bath hydraulic
tank is set just below the surface. If a
hydraulic leak develops a light turns on
nearby and the warning system in the loader
is activated.
- The infeed conveyor is ready for another
bucket of material. A pressure switch
indicates when another bucketful of material
can be put in the infeed. This ensures the
system does not run empty and reduces the
chance of stalling the infeed conveyor.
- The rock out conveyor is cycling to remove a
hang up.
- Rocks are sometimes carried around to
the return side of the conveyor. The chain
enters back into the Waterbath through a
slot to keep rocks from reentering and
hanging up at the tail end of the conveyor.
A pressure switch and time delay relay allow
the rock conveyor to reverse far enough to
eject the rock and resume operation without
operator intervention. Occasionally a rock
is not dislodged and the conveyor continues
to cycle.
Wood Box
Wood chunks and logs from 1.5 feet to 10 feet are
ejected down a chute into the wood box. When the
wood box gets full the loader operator stops the
infeed conveyor, places the loader bucket under the
box, two hooks at the back of the wood box attach it
to the bucket. The operator carries the wood box to
a stock pile location, dumps the box by rolling out
the bucket, returns the box to its original location
and restarts the infeed conveyor without help and
without leaving his seat.
400 gallon fuel storage tank with high volume
110v pump.
980B Wheel loader with an eight cubic yard
roll-over bucket. • Engine has about 50 hours on a
complete rebuild. • The roll-over bucket allows
loading of full height chip trailers without a ramp.
The bucket interior is built to nearly eliminate
build up of wet material unlike all other roll over
buckets I have seen.
120 hours of supervision and training in
setting up and operating the machine. Time
after that would be billed by the hour.
Purchase of this equipment does not
include the rights to the design of this machine and
will require a non-disclosure statement signed by
the effected participants.
