Transportation system for use in conveying belt plant for conveying e.g. mineral rocks in surface mine, has transportation adapter whose articulation unit provides rotatingness of belt system over carrying platform around vertical axis

摘要

The system has a transport vehicle comprising a lift cylinder and a conveying belt system (10) that is couplable at a carrying platform (12) i.e. receiver unit, by using a transportation adapter (13). The transportation adapter comprises an articulation unit (21), which provides rotatingness of the conveying belt system over the carrying platform around a vertical axis (14). The transportation adapter comprises a base body (16) connected with the carrying platform, and a support structure (17) connected with the conveying belt system. The articulation unit is formed by a ball-and-socket joint with a joint ball, by a joint socket, by a bearing cup and a bearing ring.
