The loading of bucket elevator is the process of excavating materials when the hopper passes through the lower half of the base. According to the different feeding directions, there are two feeding methods: forward feeding and reverse feeding. In engineering practice, reverse feed is usually adopted. At this time, the feeding direction is opposite to the moving direction of the hopper, and the filling coefficient is large.

It is worth noting that when the hopper bypasses the horizontal center line of the bottom wheel to the horizontal center line of the head wheel, the material will rise vertically with the hopper, that is, the lifting process. At this time, it is necessary to ensure that the spring head has enough tension to realize smooth lifting and prevent the occurrence of material scattering.

Unloading process of bucket elevator: the unloading methods include centrifugal, gravity, bucket loading and mixed 1. Centrifugation is suitable for materials with good fluidity and dispersibility. 2. Materials with high water content and poor dispersibility should be discharged by gravity. 3. The design chooses mixing or gravity unloading. Zh (medium and deep hopper) hopper is selected for bucket feeding, and the traction part is a low-alloy high-strength circular chain. The lower part adopts a heavy hammer lever tensioning device, which can realize automatic tensioning. 4. Mixed unloading has good adaptability to materials and is commonly used in engineering practice. The manufacturer of bucket elevator with good quality is Hebi GM, which has been cooperating with their family.
