Pendulum bucket elevator is operated in a closed casing, and the material is conveyed and lifted by the bucket suspended from the chain, through a combination conveying of horizontal-vertical-horizontal, which can be fed at a single point or multiple points, and discharged at a single point or multiple points through the discharge device.
Pendulum bucket elevator is in the whole sealed state to complete the conveying, more to be able to ensure that no leakage of materials, no pollution. The main composition types of the pendulum bucket elevator are Z-type, C-type, mixed type, and the horizontal type whose working principle and characteristics are the same.
Pendulum bucket elevator is generally composed of casing, bucket, chain, chain track, sprocket, sprocket shaft, motor, reducer, coupling, disc brake device, tension device, electrical control system, and other components, the pneumatic unloading device can also be selected according to customer needs, to realize the function of multi-point unloading.
1.Casing:The structure of casing can be divided into semi-enclosed casing, dust proof casing, airtight casing, stainless steel casing and carbon steel painted casing, the user can select according to the material to be conveyed and the needs of the customer. 2.Bucket :The material of bucket can be divided into stainless steel bucket, carbon steel bucket, food grade plastic bucket, to meet the conveying of different materials.
3.Drive motor:The type of the drive motor can be divided into explosion-proof motor,general motor,variable frequency motor,suitable for different applications.
4.Sprocket:The material of sprocket can be divided into alloy steel sprocket,stainless steel sprocket,users can choose according to the handling materials.
5.Chain:The material of chain can be divided into alloy steel chain,stainless steel chain,users can choose them
6.Electrical control box: the functions of this electrical control box generally are: manual start stop, automatic start stop, frequency conversion control, etc.
7.Other: Special processing of the pendulum bucket elevator can be carried out according to the customer's needs, the whole machine can be explosion-proof, built-in the forced ventilation system, automatic bucket cleaning system, automatic lubricating system.

When the pendulum bucket elevator starts, the bucket lifts the incoming material from the lower horizontal section to the top along with the conveying chain,and turns downwards after bypassing the top sprocket, and the pendulum bucket elevator discharges the material into the downstream equipment.

The above is a brief introduction to the structure of the pendulum bucket elevator,we hope it can help you to understand the structural composition of the pendulum bucket elevator faster.
