9、.1 Shatter Apparatus,including(1)box,(2)base plate,(3)support frame,(4)containers,(5)sieves,and(6)weighingscales(see Fig.1).4.1.1 Box,455 mm(18 in.)in width,710 mm(28 in.)inlength,and 380 mm(15 in.)in depth.The bottom of the boxshall consist of two doors,hinged lengthwise and providedwith a trip lat
10、ch for rapid opening.The doors are of 6-mm(14-in.)plate and are mounted on freely working hinges so thatthey swing open rapidly and do not impede the fall of the coke.The sides of the box are made of plate at least 3 mm(18in.)thick.4.1.2 Base PlateSteel plate,1.22 m(48 in.)in length,965mm(38 in.)in
11、width,and not less than 13 mm(12in.)thick.Vertical plates at least 200 mm(8 in.)high are placed on allfour sides to form a shallow box and to prevent loss of cokeduring the test.The back plate and side plates are rigidly fixedwhile the front plate is made removable to facilitate shovellingthe coke f
12、rom the base plate into the box after each drop.It isimportant that the base plate be supported rigidly.NOTE1Mounting the base plate solidly on concrete is satisfactory.4.1.3 Support FrameA support frame and other appropri-ate mechanism are provided so the box may be readily raisedand lowered to fix
13、ed or reproducible upper and lower positions.No part of the supporting frame is to impede the free fall ofcoke nor protrude into the 1.22 m by 0.965 m(48 in.by 38 in.)1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D05 on Coaland Coke and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D0
