Device and seal for the profiled feed drum of a bucket belt conveyor with buckets running on the inside

摘要

Bucket belt conveyors with buckets running on the inside in the material-feed and material-delivery regions have a profiled drum in the form of a pair of discs as a deflecting device in the region of the material feed. There is the problem of reliably preventing the material stream, which at high belt speeds also runs laterally of the buckets on the profiled feed drum, from flowing out of the bucket conveyor. This is achieved by pressing the belt 2 onto the profiled drum 3 by means of pressure rollers 1, so that the looping angle is increased and a specific part emptying of the buckets 4 takes place. IMAGE
