1.1.3 The planetary gear box, is fitted on the hollow shaft at the cylindrical end of
the bowl. It drives the conveyor by means of a shaft going through the hollow
shaft of the bowl. On the end of the gear box opposite the bowl, is a small
shaft. This is the small sunwheel shaft of the planetary gear box. The speed
and direction of the small sunwheel determines the differential speed, or the
relative speed of the bowl and the conveyor.
1.1.4 The frame is the tubular steel member on which the bowl pillow block
bearings, feed tube bracket and the vessel are mounted. See Figure 4
