Loading of high-speed belt conveyors

Abstract

Loading of high-speed main belt conveyors at conveyor belt velocities v_l > 5 m/s is inexpedient to carry out with the help of traditional feeding devices, as well as chutes-accelerators, as the final velocities v_k of cargo flow when using these technical means will always be less v_l than the belt velocity of the main conveyor. Provision of the condition v_c = v_l is practically impossible for two reasons: it is necessary to have a large length of the inclined chute; the speed of cargo movement at speeds, even significantly lower than v_l stabilizes due to the sailing of the cargo.
