This article shares with you the working principle of the scraper conveyor, hoping to be helpful to you.
In the current coal mining face, the function of scraper conveyor is not only to transport coal and materials, but also to operate the rails of coal mining machines. Therefore, it has become an indispensable main equipment in modern coal mining technology. The scraper conveyor can maintain continuous operation and production can proceed normally. Otherwise, the entire coal mining face will appear in a state of shutdown, causing the entire production to be interrupted.
The working principle of a scraper conveyor is to use an open chute as a bearing member for coal, gangue, or materials, and to fix the scraper on a chain (forming a scraper chain) as a traction member. After the head transmission unit operates, the sprocket on the belt conveyor head shaft rotates, causing the scraper chain to circulate and move the belt material along the chute until it reaches the head for unloading. The scraper chain operates in a stepless closed cycle around the chain wheel to complete the transportation of materials.
