Working principle of Conveyor Apron Feeder
Conveyor Apron Feeder (square conveyor) is a conveying device that uses a closed and circulating chain as a traction member, and uses butt-jointed or lapped flat plates, wave plates, troughs or boxes and other components as bearing members. The traction member and the bearing member form a chain plate combination device; the traction chain can be connected with the bearing member through a chain attachment, or can be directly connected with the bearing member. The load-bearing member carries itself and is supported by rollers or idlers fixed on the frame.

Features
1. Wide range of application. Except for viscous materials, general solid bulk materials and finished items can be transported.
2. Large conveying capacity. In particular, the conveying capacity of the scale plate conveyor can be as high as 1000t/h.
3. The traction member has high strength and can be transported over a long distance. The conveying length of domestic scale conveyor has reached 200m; the maximum conveying length abroad is more than 1000m.
4. Flexible layout of transmission lines. Compared with belt conveyors, scale conveyors can convey materials with larger resolution and smaller bending radius, so they have greater flexibility. The inclination angle can reach 30°~35°, and the bending radius is usually 5~8m.
5. During the conveying process, various technological operations such as classification, cleaning, drying, cooling or assembly can be carried out at the same time.
6. The chains and accessories used are produced by professional factories, and the quality is guaranteed. Not only the operation is stable and reliable, but also a certain service life can be guaranteed.

The Structure

The Conveyor Apron Feeder is composed of head wheel device, scale plate chain device, tail wheel tensioning device, guide material protection device, frame and driving device.
1. Driving device: since the speed of the apron Pan Conveyor is generally not greater than 0.5m/s, the driving device of the apron Pan Conveyor mostly adopts the transmission structure such as motor and reducer, so it can be directly connected with the head wheel shaft through the cross slider coupling, which simplifies the structure of the head wheel device, makes it easy to manufacture, install and adjust, and has a low cost. It is a single driving device with a single speed.
2. Tail wheel tensioning device: the device adopts a screw tensioning device, which is composed of a tail wheel shaft, two tail sprockets, a pair of tensioning screws and other accessories. The tension sprocket (including the hub) is supported on the sprocket shaft through double rolling bearings, which can reduce the resistance coefficient when the traction chain bypasses the sprocket; At the same time, when the chains are not synchronized due to the unequal cumulative errors of the pitch of multiple traction chains, the positions of sprocket teeth and traction chain joints can be automatically adjusted to ensure the correct engagement of sprocket teeth and traction chains, so as to avoid uneven or even uneven tension of multiple traction materials, thus improving the overall performance of the traction chain.
3. Scale plate chain device: the chain used by BL Conveyor Apron Feeder is a piece chain and stamping chain with rollers installed at the shaft end. The rollers are installed outside the outer chain plate. The rollers only support the load on the base plate. Its structural size is relatively small, so the resistance coefficient is small, reducing the driving device and traction load. After quenching and tempering heat treatment, the chain has large bearing capacity and strong tensile strength; The chain plate joint sleeve is made of alloy steel, carburized, Quenched and ground, with high wear resistance; Scale plate hopper: the scale plate hopper is the bearing component of the Conveyor Apron Feeder. It is formed by stamping with a die with thick steel plate. It has high shape and size accuracy and small cumulative error. The scale plate will not run off.
4. Rack: the rack adopts standardized production, which not only standardizes the production process, but also avoids the errors caused by manual errors, improves the excellent rate of products, saves costs and improves economic benefits.
Which industries or materials are Conveyor Apron Feeder suitable for?
Coal powder, crushed coal, soot, carbon black, ammonium bicarbonate, pyrite powder, ammonium chloride, copper concentrate powder, alumina powder, gypsum powder, limestone powder, soda powder, urea, activated carbon, sodium oxide, silicon Calcium acid, asbestos powder, synthetic resin, rubber powder, calcium carbide, pottery ten, synthetic fertilizer, powdered pesticide, calcium sulfate, thiamine, soda ash, powdered medicine, wheat, soybean, rice, sugar, starch, crushed charcoal, wood chips , sawdust, polyvinyl alcohol synthetic detergent, fly ash phosphate fertilizer, etc.
Materials that Conveyor Apron Feeders are not suitable for conveying:
High temperature, toxic, flammable and explosive, highly abrasive, highly corrosive, highly adhesive, highly suspending, highly fluid, hard and brittle Materials that do not want to be broken.

When choosing a slat conveyor, please note the following:
1. The slat conveyor considers its own production conditions. The applications of slat conveyors in different industries are different. For large electromechanical industries such as automobiles and home appliances, heavy-duty Conveyor Apron Feeders should be selected, and industries such as food and electronics should choose light chain conveyors.
2. The slat conveyor determines the conveying material requirements. The chain plate of the Conveyor Apron Feeder is made of polypropylene, polyethylene, acetal, nylon, stainless steel, etc.; the frame of the Conveyor Apron Feeder is composed of stainless steel, high-strength aluminum alloy, carbon steel plate bending, carbon steel channel, etc., according to Choose the appropriate sheet material for the characteristics of the material you are transporting.
3. The slat conveyor determines the conveying direction. According to the different conveying directions, the Conveyor Apron Feeder is divided into linear phosphorus plate conveyor line, climbing phosphorus plate conveyor, turning chain plate conveyor, vertical phosphorus plate conveyor, curved phosphorus plate conveyor, accumulating phosphorus plate conveyor, etc. . Select the conveying direction according to the space characteristics of the site.
4. Determine the basic parameters of the slat conveyor. The width, height, spacing, length, conveying speed and carrying capacity of the conveyor can be set according to the needs of the producer.
Types of apron conveyors:
Heavy apron conveyor: suitable for short distance transportation of block materials with feeding particle size below 1000mm.
Medium apron conveyor: suitable for short-distance conveying of block materials with feeding particle size less than 400mm, transporting materials with loose density less than 2400kg/m³, block weight less than 500kg and temperature less than 400 ℃.
Light apron conveyor: suitable for short-distance conveying of block materials with feeding particle size less than 160mm, transporting materials with loose density less than 1200kg/m³, block weight less than 140kg and temperature less than 350 ℃.
