Structural principle of belt conveyor

The main components of a belt conveyor include a driving device, drum group, vertical tensioning device, roller group, cleaner, conveyor belt, safety protection device, etc. [1]. ▲
Drive device
Mainly composed of motors, hydraulic couplings, reducers, couplings, etc.
1. Motor reducers are all standard components, and their structure and principle will not be described in detail.
2. Drive drum: The drive drum is the main component for transmitting power, and the conveyor belt operates with the help of its frictional force with the drum. It is composed of a cylinder, a shaft, and bearings, and the driving drum is a diamond groove cast rubber surface.
3. Turning the machine head towards the drum: mainly by increasing the wrapping angle of the conveyor belt on the driving drum to increase the friction between the driving drum and the belt.
4. Turning the tail towards the drum: mainly by increasing the wrapping angle of the conveyor belt on the tail drum to increase the friction between the tail drum and the belt.

vertical take-up
Mainly composed of up and down directional rollers and counterweight rollers, the function is to tighten the counterweight rollers through counterweights, so that the entire belt is in a taut state.

Roller assembly
The roller group is the component that supports the conveyor belt and the materials above it. It is divided into groove type forward tilting roller group, groove type roller group, buffer roller group, V-line forward tilting lower roller group, and V-line lower roller group. Each roller group has the advantages of light weight, low operating resistance, and good sealing performance. Long service life and other characteristics. The buffer roller has the function of buffering materials, reducing the impact of materials on the conveyor belt.
