Abstract
The basic information about the conveyors with suspended belt is given, their advantages and disadvantages in comparison with the belt conveyors on roller supports and the tasks associated with the prospect of introducing the new design of conveyors in industry are considered. At the first stage of the studies we consider the specificity of the belt stressed state at the transitional section of the conveyor, give the basic mathematical model describing the relationship between the transverse tensioning of the belt and the distance from the beginning of the transitional section of the belt to the end reel. We present the calculation scheme for determining the shape of the belt loaded with loose material and for the belt without any weight loads. The variants of mathematical description of physical models are offered. Preliminary results of the experiments are presented.
