Application of the rope traction organ in conveyors
Abstract
Widespread use of conveyor transportation in some cases is limited by the shortcomings of traction and load-carrying bodies of existing types of conveyors. Belt conveyors with rubberized fabric (cotton and synthetic) belt have a relatively small length per drive and short belt life. The disadvantage of belt conveyors with steel-cord belt is the high cost of the belt and its repair (amortization of the cost of the belt is up to 50% of the total cost of transportation). Belt-cable conveyors have a complex belt design and, accordingly, its cost is high. Belt-chain, slat and scraper conveyors have a small length per drive, low strength and very high weight of the traction body ...
