The bucket elevator is suitable for lifting from low to high, and the supply material is fed into the hopper through the vibration table, and the machine automatically runs continuously to transport upwards. The bucket elevator can lift materials up to a height of 80m (such as TDG type), with a commonly used range of less than 40m. The conveying capacity is below 1600m3/h. Due to their high sensitivity to overload, the hopper and traction components are prone to damage. How to repair bucket elevators, such as replacing the lifting bucket chain, is a concern for many users. Especially in the event of a chain collapse accident, the long and heavy bucket chain is dragged out and put into the casing, which not only requires high labor intensity but is also quite dangerous. Today, Zhengkang Environmental Protection will talk to you about the issue of replacing the chain and hopper of the bucket elevator. We hope it can be helpful to you!
Method for replacing the chain and hopper of a bucket elevator:
The method of replacing the bucket chain normally is relatively simple. Firstly, open the maintenance door and dismantle the bucket chain. Connect the new bucket chain that needs to be replaced and assembled on one side, and drag the old bucket chain that needs to be replaced out of the casing on the other side. Then, in the bucket elevator, slowly rotate the transmission device manually. This way, the new bucket chain slowly enters the casing, and the old bucket chain slowly drags out of the casing, making it easy and safe to replace the aggressive chain.
