The Dodge Jaw Crusher

In the Dodge crusher, shown in Figure below, the moving jaw is pivoted at the bottom. The minimum movement is thus at the bottom and a more uniform product is obtained, although the crusher is less widely used because of its tendency to choke. The large opening at the top enables it to take very large feed and to effect a large size reduction. This crusher is usually made in smaller sizes than the Stag crusher, because of the high fluctuating stresses that are produced in the members of the machine.
