Chain bucket conveyor

Chain bucket conveyor is a device that uses hoppers running along the track to horizontally or obliquely transport materials. It is widely used in industries such as power plants, mines, metallurgy, coal, chemical industry, building materials, etc. It is used to transport various loose materials such as ash, cement clinker, iron slag, slag, stone ash, coke, crushed stone, etc. Especially suitable for conveying materials with high temperature, large capacity, large block size, sharp angles, and strong wear resistance.

working principle

The chain bucket conveyor uses a driving mechanism chain to pull the hopper containing materials along the track for horizontal or inclined transportation. The transmission device drives the sprocket in the head device, pulling the conveying bucket containing materials to run along the track, and the materials are discharged from the head cover, thus achieving the purpose of conveying materials. This design not only enables the chain bucket conveyor to have strong conveying capacity, but also protects its stability and optimal operation.

structural characteristics

The key components of a chain bucket conveyor include the transmission device, head device, running part, tail device, and feeding device. The traction chain adopts a high-strength double row heavy-duty plate chain, which runs stably and has a long service life. The tail part of the machine adopts a spring spiral tensioning device, which can automatically adjust the tension of the traction chain, especially suitable for long-distance and heavy-duty conveyors. In addition, the process layout of the chain bucket conveyor is flexible, and it can be arranged at a high height, on the ground, or in a pit. It can be installed horizontally or diagonally, and can also be installed horizontally and diagonally. The backpack drive mechanism has a compact structure and is easy to install.

Application scenarios

Chain bucket conveyor is suitable for conveying various powdery and bulk materials with a horizontal or inclined angle of ≤ 60 °, especially suitable for conveying solid materials with high temperature, large capacity, large size, sharp edges and strong grinding properties. In power plants, it is often used to transport boiler ash and slag; In the mining and coal industries, it is used to transport materials such as slag, coke, and crushed stone.
