Bulk material vibratory distribution conveyor - has flexible connections forming buffer storage chambers between outlets and receiving stations

摘要

The vibratory conveyor distributes material in bulk over a number of points, having a trough-shaped or tubular passage coupled to a vibrator. It has a number of discharge openings along it, together with a loading device at the inlet end. Between the discharge openings (1) and metering devices (6, 7) for the receiving stations flexible connections (4, 5) are provided, acting as buffer storage chambers. The portion of each connection fixed to the conveyor (2) can widen towards the metering device. Each connection can comprises a moving pipe (4) discharging into a funnel-shaped passage (5), over whose outlet there fits a length of pipe (6) sliding towards the receiving station and forming the metering device.
