PAIENImssPzmn 'snmaora ROTATABLE DRUM TYPE SCRUBBER FOR STONES, ROCKS, GRAVEL, AND THE LIKE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Scrubber washers of the type to which the present invention pertain have heretofore usually employed a large gear around the periphery of the rotatable drum and which gear is driven by a drive shaft with a pinion which meshes with the gear. The drum has been usually supported on steel rollers which bear against large mating rollers located around the drum. These prior art devices were very costly to manufacture, subject to severe wear and were generally noisey in operation. Other prior art scrubbers of this type have attempted to employ rubber tire drive mounting means, but the means for rotatably supporting these rubber tire assemblies have not proved to be entirely satisfactory due to the tremendous wear and abuse to which they are subjected in operation; furthermore, it has been difficult to remove the individual rubber tire wheel assemblies for replacement or repair, resulting in much down-time in the scrubber washers.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a scrubber washer of the type having a hollow drum rotatable about a generally horizontal axis and which has a series of rubber tire wheel assemblies located along each of the lower sides of the drum and for rotatably supporting the latter. The rubber tire wheel assemblies located along one side of the drum are positively driven to impart the rotary drive to the drum itself. The invention contemplates the use of elongated hubs mounted on shafts and which hubs have radial flanges of different radial dimensions, those flanges which are of smaller radial dimension also utilize segmental hub rings to which the rubber tire wheel assemblies are mounted. In this manner, the wheel assemblies can be individually removed by only removing one other wheel assembly at most. The invention also contemplates the use of anti-friction bearing assemblies of the self-contained, pre-assembled and pre-lubricated type which can be applied to and removed from the axle without exposing the bearing elements or other parts. These anti-friction bearing assemblies can be easily removed from the main frame in which they are mounted.
These and other objects and advantages of the present invention will appear hereinafter as this disclosure progresses, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.

DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The scrubber provided by the present invention is of the type which is used to process rock, gravel or stone, that is to say, such material is washed as it moves from one end of the horizontally disposed drum 1 to the other. More specifically, an inlet hopper 2 is located at one end of the drum and through which the material to be processed passes into the interior of the drum. As the drum rotates, the lifters 3 which are circumferentially spaced around the interior of the drum act to create a vigorous churning action to the material as the material passes from one end of the drum to the other in the known manner. Thus, the material is subjected to high speed cascading and ball mill action as it travels through the drum. Ultimately, the material passes out the discharge end 4 of the drum and through the outer dewatering trommel of the perforated screen type (not shown) located at the discharge end of the drum. Generally, the operation on the material passing through the drum is conventional and it is believed sufficient to say that the drum is subjected to extremely heavy loads, and the loads imposed on the rotary means for mounting on the drum are severe, periodically requiring replacement or repair.
The main frame for the scrubber includes two longitudinally disposed and spaced apart steel members 6 and 7 (FIGS. 1 and 2) to which are welded the transversely disposed steel beams 8.
Anti-friction bearing assemblies 10 (FIG.v 8) are mounted on the transverse beams 8 by heavy mounting plates 12 secured thereto by the bolt means 13. The plates 12 have a generally upwardly facing recess 16 which receives the generally semi-circular bearing adaptors 15 which are slipped intothe complementary recess 16 in the bearing mounting plates 12. Thus, the bearing assemblies 10 simply set in the adaptors l5 and are held therein by the slots 17 of the adaptor which embrace the plate 12 and also by the adaptor being inclined at about 30 from the horizontal. Assemblies 10 are mounted by the bolt means 13 (FIG. 8) to the steel beams 8 and as the mounting for the bearing units 10 are similar, only one has been shown in detail in FIG.
The bearing assemblies themselves include a series of opposed tapered roller bearings 20, 21 which are mounted on a rotatable shaft 24 by means of their inner races 25, 26, respectively. An outer, common race 28 embraces the outer periphery of the circumferentially spaced roller bearings 20 and 21. Spacers 30, 31 and end rings 32 hold the bearing in clamped, assembled relationship.
The shaft 24 is made in segments and as shown in FIG. 5, the segments 24 each have a coupling member 40 secured to their ends by the keys 41 and the couplings 40 are held together by the bolt means 42. In this manner, if need be, one segment 24 of the shaft can be removed without disturbing the others.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, one of the shafts located at one side of the drum is driven by an electric motor E through the gear reducer R, sprockets 44, 45 and chain 46 which drive the shaft at one side of the drum. It will also be noted from FIG. 4 that this drive shaft 24 at the up running side of the drum has more rubber tires T mounted thereon than the total of the other individual shafts 48 which are located at the opposite side of the drum.
The means for mounting the rubber tires T to their shaft will now be described. In using rubber tires to rotatably support the drum, the inflatable tire must occasionally be replaced or repaired, and heretofore it has been a difficult problem to do so without removing numerous other tires.
As shown clearly in FIGS. and 7, a pair of double tire hubs 51 are fixed to the shaft 24 by their respective keys 51a. As these hubs are generally similar in construction, only one will be described. The hub 51 for example, has a first radially extending, shouldered flange 53 which is formed integrally with the main hub portion and the tire rim 54 has a flange 55 which is detachably secured by bolt means 56 to the shouldered flange 53. The hub 51 also has a second integrally formed shouldered flange 63 which is of a smaller circumference, that is to say, which is of a radially smaller dimension than the flange S3. A segmental hub ring 70 is formed as two pieces 71 and 72 (FIG. 6) and is detachably secured by bolt means 74 to the radially shorter second flange 63. The outer diameter of the hub ring 70 is the same as the outer diameter of the first flange 53 so that the rubber tire wheel assemblies including the tire T and its radial flange 55 can be interchanged in any of the positions along the length of the shaft. That is to say, as shown in FIG. 5, the flange 55 may be secured by the bolt means 56 to the hub ring 70.
With the above construction, if it is necessary to repair or replace the tire T2 (FIG. 5), the adjacent tire T would first be removed from the flange 70. Then the segmental hub ring 70 can be removed in halves from the radially shorter flange 63 by removal of the bolt 74. The tire T2 can then be removed by removing the bolts 56 from the radially larger flange 53 and the tire T2 can then be removed axially over the shorter flange 63, due to the fact that the radial dimension of the flange 63 is less than the internal radial dimension of the flange 55 of tire assembly T2. This difference in radial dimension is indicated by the letter x in FIG. 5.
The above arrangement as shown in FIG. 5 is utilized when four tire assemblies are used adjacent to one another as shown in the lower portion of FIG. 4. When a double tire arrangement is used as shown in the upper portion of FIG. 4, the different flanges on the tire hub are not required. As also shown in FIG. 4, when three tire assemblies are used adjacent one another, it is only necessary to utilize the segmental hub ring construction on either one of the outermost of the tire assemblies.
To prevent axial shifting of the drum, a pair of tire guide wheels 76 and 77 (FIGS. 1, 2 and 4) are provided which bear against the radially extending flanges 78 and 79 fixed around the periphery of the drum.
With the above construction, the shaft itself can be readily replaced or removed from the main frame of the machine by the mounting of the anti-friction bearing assemblies as shown in FIG. 7. Furthermore, the bearing assemblies 10 act to absorb axial thrust in either direction and are completely sealed and lubricated and need infrequent attention and are capable of accommodating the extremely heavy loads to which they are subjected.
In addition, the present invention provides a relatively easy means for replacing any one of the rubber tire assemblies.
