Bucket elevator

Bucket elevator is a mechanical equipment used for continuously lifting bulk materials in the vertical direction, widely used in industries such as mining, building materials, chemical, and grain, for lifting bulk or small pieces of materials such as coal, ore, cement, and grain. Its working principle is based on a series of hoppers (or buckets) that are driven by traction components (usually circular chains or belts) to lift materials from the lower feeding port to the upper discharging port.

This series of bucket elevator has the characteristics of small floor area, high lifting height, large conveying capacity, low power consumption and good tightness. The utility model is suitable for vertical conveying equipment of granular and powdery materials, such as chemical fertilizer, grain, food, fodder, mining industry, etc..

The driving power is small, the use of inflow feeding, induction discharge, large capacity hopper intensive layout. In the lifting of materials, almost no return and excavation phenomenon, therefore, less power.

The utility model has the advantages of wide range of hoisting, low requirement of the type and characteristic of the material, not only the general powder and small granular material can be promoted, but also the material with good grinding property can be improved, and the sealing property is good, and the environmental pollution is less.

The operation reliability is good, the advanced design principle and processing method ensure the reliability of the whole machine, and the trouble free time is more than 20 thousand hours. The lifting height is high. The hoist runs smoothly, so it can achieve a higher lifting height.

The service life is long, the feeding of the lifter adopts the inflow type, and the material is not needed to be dug by the bucket, and the extrusion and the collision are rarely occurred among the materials. This machine in the design to ensure the materials in the feeding and unloading is less scattered, reduces the mechanical wear.

The working principle of bucket elevator is as follows:

Feed: The material enters the bottom hopper through the feed inlet.

Lifting: The driving device is activated to drive the hopper upwards along the guide rail or groove through a chain or belt, and the material rises together with the hopper.

Unloading: When the hopper reaches the upper part, due to the action of gravity or centrifugal force, the material is discharged from the hopper and discharged through the discharge port.

Return: The empty hopper returns to the feeding port along the other side guide rail, preparing for the next cycle.

Large lifting height: capable of achieving high vertical lifting height, suitable for high-rise buildings or elevated material transportation.

High efficiency improvement: Through continuous hopper lifting, efficient vertical transportation of materials is achieved.

Strong adaptability: able to handle various scattered or small materials, with a wide range of adaptability.

Good sealing: The enclosed lifting process reduces material loss and dust flying.

Compact structure: Vertical layout saves floor space and is suitable for production environments with limited space.

Easy to maintain: The structure is relatively simple, making it easy to maintain and repair.
