A bucket conveyor, sometimes referred to as a bucket elevator or bucket lift, is a kind of conveyor system designed to safely raise and move granular or bulk items vertically. It involves connecting a number of buckets to a spinning chain or belt to form a continuous loop that transports the materials from one level to another.
1. Buckets: The buckets are frequently composed of metal or plastic and connected to a chain or belt at regular intervals. They are built to vertically transport materials from a lower location to an upper point by snatching them up. Depending on the precise application and substance being handled, the bucket's form and size can change.
2. The buckets are attached to a belt or continuous chain that travels around a number of pulleys or sprockets. The buckets are moved in a vertical or angled direction by the chain or belt, which is operated by a motor.
3. The bucket conveyor has two infeed and discharge points where items are normally fed into the buckets from a hopper or a chute. The buckets topple over at the top or discharge point, discharging the contents into a receiving conveyor, an additional processing device, or a storage tank.
4. Depending on the system's design, bucket conveyors have the ability to lift goods vertically or at slope angles. They can lift objects up to several floors high and a wide range of heights in between.
6. Options for Configuration: Bucket conveyors can be set up in a variety of ways to meet the needs of various applications. They can be made as a single-leg or double-leg system, with one row of buckets or several rows. Additionally, the conveyor system might have several discharge stations to distribute items to various locations.
Industries like agriculture, mining, manufacturing, and bulk material handling frequently use bucket conveyors. They offer features including gentle handling of delicate materials, high capacity, and the capability to handle both dry and wet materials, providing an effective and dependable technique for vertically conveying products.
