Here’s a simplified diagram of a jaw crusher with labeled parts:

Key Components:
1. Fixed Jaw (Stationary Jaw Plate) – The non-moving crushing surface.
2. Movable Jaw (Swing Jaw Plate) – Moves back and forth to crush material.
3. Eccentric Shaft – Rotates to move the movable jaw in an elliptical motion.
4. Toggle Plate – Supports the movable jaw and acts as a safety mechanism.
5. Flywheel – Stores energy to ensure smooth operation (not shown in this simplified diagram).
6. Cheek Plates – Side liners that protect the crusher frame (not shown).
7. Discharge Gap Adjustment – Controls the output size by adjusting the toggle plate or hydraulic system..jpg)
How It Works:
- Material is fed into the top between the two jaws.
- The movable jaw compresses material against the fixed jaw, breaking it into smaller pieces.
- Crushed material exits through the discharge gap at the bottom.
