Wear-resistant lining element and wear lining made thereof

Abstract

A wear-resistant lining element for a wall exposed to wear, over which piece goods or particulate goods, such as crushed ore and crushed stone material, are intended to move in a transport direction, has compartments ( 2 ) which are adapted to receive the transported goods. The compartments ( 2 ) are upwardly open and defined by partition walls ( 3 ) which are made of an elastic material. Also a wear lining is described which is made of a number of wear-resistant lining elements.

What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:  
     
         1 . A wear-resistant lining element for a wall exposed to wear, over which piece goods or particulate goods, such as crushed ore and crushed stone material, are intended to move in a transport direction (T), said wear-resistant lining element having compartments ( 2 ) which are adapted to receive the transported goods and which are upwardly open and defined by partition walls ( 3 ), characterized in that the partition walls are made of an elastic material.  
     
     
         2 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the partition walls ( 3 ) are made of a material with a hardness of 40-95 Shore A.  
     
     
         3 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the partition walls ( 3 ) are made of a material with a hardness of 70-80 Shore A.  
     
     
         4 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the partition walls ( 3 ) are made of a material having a hardness of 70-75 Shore A.  
     
     
         5 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in any one of the preceding claims, wherein the partition walls ( 3 ) are made of an elastomeric material.  
     
     
         6 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in  claim 5 , which in its entirety is made of an elastomeric material.  
     
     
         7 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in any one of the preceding claims, wherein the compartments ( 2 ) in a plan view have a shape having at least one corner in the compartment part positioned downstream in the transport direction (T).  
     
     
         8 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in any one of the preceding claims, wherein the compartments ( 2 ) in a plan view have an essentially square shape.  
     
     
         9 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in any one of the preceding claims, whose surface provided with compartments is wave-shaped in the transport direction (T).  
     
     
         10 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the wave shape is such that upstream surface portions of the surface provided with compartments have a steeper inclination than downstream surface portions.  
     
     
         11 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in any one of the preceding claims, which at a lateral edge has a recess ( 6 ) and at an opposite lateral edge a projection ( 4 ), the projection ( 4 ) and the recess ( 6 ) being formed so that the recess ( 6 ) of one wear-resistant lining element is joinable with the projection ( 4 ) of a neighboring wear-resistant lining element for interconnecting the wear-resistant lining elements.  
     
     
         12 . A wear-resistant lining element as claimed in any one of the preceding claims, which at two opposite lateral edges has recesses ( 10 ) which are open towards said lateral edges, said recesses being adapted to hold connecting devices ( 9 ).  
     
     
         13 . A wear lining for a wall exposed to wear, over which piece goods or particulate goods, such as crushed ore and crushed stone material, are intended to move in a transport direction (T), said wear lining being made of a number of wear-resistant lining elements ( 1 ) as claimed in any one of the preceding claims.  
     
     
         14 . A wear lining as claimed in  claim 13 , in which the surface of the wear-resistant lining elements ( 1 ) which is provided with compartments is wave-shaped in the transport direction (T).
