Abstract
A mill lining is disclosed, intended for e.g. a primary or autogenous mill in the mining industry. The lining comprises shell plates and lifter bars made from elastomer material and mounted in a mill drum. The lifter bars extend substantially in the axial direction of the mill drum and project into the mill drum beyond the inner surface of the shell plates. At least some of the lifter bars, preferably every second, are designed to act as elastomer springs by having a longitudinal recess or slot in their impact front side facing forwardly in the contemplated direction of rotation of the mill drum. The recess or slot is inside the inner surface of the shell plates and serves as a strain concentrator concentrating the tensile strain of the lifter bars to an area relatively unexposed to sliding abrasion of the material being ground.
