Abstract
A cone crusher having a main frame, a crusher head interconnected with the main frame, a crusher bowl positioned adjacent to the first crusher member, and a double-acting hydraulic lift interconnected with both the main frame and the second crusher member. A force transfer member extends downward relative to the crusher bowl. The hydraulic lift includes an upper end interconnected with the main frame and a lower end interconnected with the force transfer member, thereby providing a downward clamp force on the force transfer member to compliantly clamp the crusher bowl to the main frame in an operating position. The hydraulic lift can provide an upward lift force on the force transfer member to move the second crusher member from the operating position to a clear position.
