Bucket Elevator

Bucket elevator is a continuous conveying machinery that uses a series of hoppers uniformly fixed to endless traction members to lift materials vertically.

Bucket elevators use a series of hoppers fixed to a traction chain or tape to transport bulk materials upwards in a vertical or near-vertical direction, divided into three types: ring chains, plate chains and belts.

The bucket elevator is suitable for lifting from low to high, and the supply material is automatically and continuously transported to the hopper through the shaker. According to the conveying volume can adjust the conveying speed, and choose the lifting height on demand, the hopper is designed and manufactured by itself, PP non-toxic hopper makes this type of bucket elevator more widely used, all sizes are designed and manufactured according to the actual needs, for supporting vertical packaging machine, computer measuring machine design, suitable for food, medicine, chemical industry, screws, nuts and other products lifting and feeding, can be controlled by the signal recognition of the packaging machine to control the automatic stop and start of the machine.

How it works:

The hopper scoops the material from the storage below and flips down as the conveyor belt or chain is lifted to the top, around the top wheel, and the bucket elevator dumps the material into the receiving tank. The transmission belt of the bucket elevator with drive is generally made of rubber belt, which is installed on the lower or upper transmission drum and the upper and lower diverting drums. Chain drive bucket elevators are generally equipped with two parallel drive chains, with a pair of drive sprockets above or below, and a pair of redirection sprockets below or above. Bucket elevators are generally equipped with organic shells to prevent dust from flying in the bucket elevator.

Bucket elevator: suitable for lifting from low to high, the supply material is automatically and continuously transported to the hopper after the shaker is put into the hopper.

Key features:

Bucket elevator is a kind of conveying equipment for vertical lifting of materials, which has the advantages of simple structure, low maintenance cost, high conveying efficiency, high lifting height, stable operation, and wide range of applications.

(1) The driving power is small, and the intensive arrangement of inflow feeding, induction discharge and large-capacity hopper is adopted, and there is almost no material return and digging phenomenon when the material is lifted, so the ineffective power is small.

(2) Wide lifting range, this type of elevator has few requirements for the type and characteristics of materials, which can not only lift general powder and small granular materials, but also can lift materials with greater abrasiveness, good sealing, and less environmental pollution.

(3) Good operation reliability, advanced design principles and processing methods ensure the reliability of the whole machine, and the trouble-free time is more than 20,000 hours. The lifting height is high. The hoist runs smoothly and can therefore reach high lifting heights.

(4) The service life is long, the feeding of the elevator adopts the inflow type, no need to dig the material with a bucket, and there is little extrusion and collision between materials. This machine is designed to ensure that the material is rarely scattered during feeding and discharging, which reduces mechanical wear.
