Brief Introduction of Corrugated Sidewall Belt Conveyor

The biggest feature of the corrugated sidewall belt conveyor structure is that the corrugated sidewall conveyor belt replaces the ordinary conveyor belt. Its working principle and structure are the same as general belt conveyors. Therefore, transmission rollers, reversing rollers, idlers, tensioning devices, driving devices, intermediate frames, intermediate legs, tailstocks, discharge funnels, head guards, empty section cleaners, protection devices, etc., are all It can be used with the corresponding parts of general belt conveyor.

Characteristics of Corrugated Sidewall Belt Conveyor

1. Using a conveyor belt with corrugated ribs and transverse partitions, its allowable conveying inclination angle is large, up to 90°, and it is an ideal equipment for large inclination angle conveying and vertical lifting of materials. Therefore, it can save land and area, save equipment investment and civil construction costs, and have higher comprehensive economic benefits.

2. Simple structure.

3. Reliable operation.

4. Stable operation and low noise.

5. As there is no excavation resistance during loading and internal friction and external friction resistance of materials during operation, the energy consumption is small.

6. The vertical sidewall machine can also be equipped with any length of horizontal conveying section at the head and tail, which is convenient for connecting with other equipment.

7. Large delivery volume. Because the conveyor belt has corrugated ribs, its loading section is enlarged, and at the same inclination angle, it can deliver the largest conveyance compared to a general belt conveyor.

Application of Corrugated Sidewall Belt Conveyor

1. It is a general purpose continuous conveying equipment for bulk materials.

2. It can be widely used in coal, food, building materials, construction, metallurgy, electric power, chemical and light industry industries.

3. It can transport various bulk materials with a bulk density of 0.5-2.5t/m³ in the ambient temperature range of -25～40℃.

4. The maximum conveying inclination angle is 90°, and the maximum conveying material lumpness is 550mm.

5. When conveying materials with special requirements, a corrugated sidewall conveyor belt of special materials should be used.

Structural Composition of Corrugated Sidewall Belt Conveyor

1. Conveyor belt with corrugated ribs

The corrugated sidewall conveyor belt plays a traction and bearing role in the sidewall machine. It is composed of a base belt, a corrugated rib and a transverse partition. The corrugated rib is glued on both sides of the base tape, and the transverse partition is glued between the two ribs at a certain interval.

2. Driving device

The driving device is the power part of the sidewall machine. The drive device of a general-purpose belt conveyor can be used.

3. Transmission roller

The function of the drive roller is to transmit the power of the driving device to the conveyor belt through friction and make it run. The drive rollers of this series of sidewall machines are located on the head.

4. Change to the drum

The function of the reversing roller is to change the running direction of the conveyor belt. The reversing roller of the sidewall machine is located at the tail or the lower branch of the concave arc section. The tail reversing roller is also used as a tension roller.

5. Reversing wheel and reversing roller set

The reversing wheel and reversing roller set are used for the lower branch of the convex arc section or the upper branch of the concave arc section of the sidewall machine. They are supported or pressed on the side of the rib conveying with wavy ribs and transverse partitions. Is to change the running direction of the conveyor belt.

6. Roller

The roller is used to support the conveyor belt and the material on the conveyor belt and make it run stably.

Various types and functions of rollers

The rollers are all flat rollers.

6.1 Upper roller. Used to support the conveyor belt and the materials on it.

6.2 Lower idler. Used to support the conveyor belt.

6.3 Tilt the roller forward. It is used to correct the deviation of the conveyor belt and ensure the stable operation of the conveyor belt.

6.4 Buffer roller. Installed in the receiving section of the sidewall machine to reduce the impact of materials.

6.5 Convex arc segment roller. Convex arc section rollers are used in groups, which are equivalent to reversing rollers, used to support the convex arc section conveyor belt and the materials on it.

6.6 Concave arc section roller. The concave arc section rollers are used in groups, which is equivalent to the reversing roller, which is used to press the concave arc section conveyor belt.

7. Stop roller

7.1 The stop rollers are generally used in groups. Used to prevent deviation of the conveyor belt.

7.2 A set of stop rollers should be arranged on the upper and lower branches of the convex and concave arc sections of the sidewall machine, and a set of stop rollers should be arranged every 10 sets of upper rollers on the upper branch, and the lower branch generally does not have stop rollers.

8. Cleaner

The cleaner is used to clean the materials adhered to the conveyor belt. There are head cleaner and tail cleaner.

8.1 Vibration cleaner, installed on the head frame, near the discharge drum.

8.2 The empty section cleaner is installed on the lower branch in front of the tail drum to clean the materials on the non-working surface of the conveyor belt.

8.3 The reversing pressure roller cleaner is used to clean the hub surface of the reversing pressure roller.

8.4 Tape empty edge cleaner, used to clean the empty edge of corrugated sidewall belt.

9. Tensioning device

The function of the tensioning device is to tension the conveyor belt so that it has the working tension required to ensure normal operation.

9.1 The tension device is divided into two types: screw type and heavy hammer type tension device.

9.2 When the conveyor length is less than 50m, it is recommended to use a spiral tensioning device; when the conveyor length is greater than 50m, it is recommended to use a heavy tanker type tensioning device.

10. Rack

The function of the frame is to support the rollers, redirect wheels, and guide troughs to make the conveyor belt and conveying materials run stably.

The frame has convex arc section frame, concave arc section frame, middle frame and outrigger. The corresponding frame can be selected by looking up the table. The other frame forms are the same as the general belt conveyor.
