ENDLESS CONVEYOR BELT

摘要

FIELD: mechanical engineering; material handling. SUBSTANCE: endless conveyor belt designed for transportation of small particles of product is provided with perforations whose number and location are selected to provide changing of gas flow relative to belt. Belt has many links hinge connected to provide movement of conveyor belt along preset path. Each link has two spacer members perpendicular to plane formed by conveyor belt, fixed rod rigidly connected to spacer members, hinged rod rigidly connected to both spacer members and perforated bottom member rigidly connected to fixed rod or to hinged rod, or to both of them. Perforated bottom member passes along part of width of endless belt link in direction cross to belt movement. Its shape prevents radial hinge bending of conveyor belt. Hinged rod of each conveyor link is connected with spacer members of adjacent conveyor link. In one of design versions vertical flange is secured to one or more ends of each bottom member and is shaped not to prevent hinge bending of conveyor belt. EFFECT: enlarged operating capabilities. 23 cl, 6 dwg øøø1
