Z type bucket conveyor unit is an engineered and ruggedly manufactured conveying system for continuous and quiet operation. The overlapping bucket elevator is versatile handling. Simple to operate and capable of automating your complex processing needs,saving floor space and unnecessary pit requirements in extension orcontraction of the vertical and horizontal runs for initial installation as well as future expansion. Structure
The Z type bucket conveyor is a new type of lifting and feeding device. The composition includes a feeding channel, a lifting channel, a discharge channel, all of which are made of the metal plates. The feeding channel, lifting channel and discharge channel form a z-type layout, so it is called z type bucket elevator. The upper surface of the feeding channel is equipped with an observation window, the lower surface is installed of a drawer. In addition, a driving chain wheel and a guided chain wheel are arranged inside the feeding channel. The driving chain wheel is connected with the driving device. The lower surface of discharge channel is installed a discharge opening, and the inside is provided with driven chain wheel and guided chain wheel. The driving chain wheel, guided chain wheel, and driven chain wheel are connnected with the conveyor chain. The inside of feeding channel, lifting channel and driven chain wheel are installed of several chain block. The chain block is matched with the conveyor chain as the traction member.
Application
Z type bucket conveyor is designed to gently transport a variety of free flow bulk materials in dry, semi-dry and moist conditions. The unit is extremely adaptable to deliver product to multi locations from single or multi source of supply through its variety if discharge locations and stations. Z type bucket elevator is widely used in a variety of industries. At present, Z type bucket elevator is mainly used for the feeding of package machine or color selector, loading and unloading of the automatic production line, and multi-point feeding of the automatic weighing batching system. This product is currently in normal operation in the following automated production industry, such as, animal food industry, feed industry, chamical industry, grain finishing industry, medical industry, military manufacturing, etc.
Feature and Advantage
The hosing of Z type bucket conveyor adopts the sectional combination, so the horizonal length and lifting height are optional. Besides, it has the feature of the flexible layout, small footprint, saving space; The operation of the device is normal and reliable, study and durable, low noise, and easy to installation and mainenance.
The problem of casing wear is common in the bucket elevator industry. The easy to wear casing in the z type bucket elevator is replaced with a replaceable wear plate, which can improve the wear resistance of the z type conveyor and facilitate the replacement of wearing parts. In summary, z type bucket elevator is mainly suitable for occasions where the conveying volume is large, the material volume is uniform, and the feeding continuity is not required and it is also suitable for occasions requiring layered conveying products. What’s more, it has a small footprint, flexible latout and strong applicability.
