The Tube Chain Conveyor is a state-of-the-art continuous conveyor system featuring a flexible driving component. Enclosed within a sealed, smooth, rectangular, and tubular section, the conveyor operates by leveraging the thrust force from a mobile chain disc. This mechanism integrates the material and chain disc into a continuous unit for seamless transportation.
Main Structure
The Tube Chain Conveyor comprises several essential components, including the tube body,chain disc,head wheel and tail wheel,feed inlet and discharge outlet,drive system, and tension device.
Working Principle
The Tube Chain Conveyor is ingeniously designed to transport bulk materials such as powders,small granules, and small lumps within a sealed tube channel. The chain piece acts as the driving component, propelling the material smoothly along the tubular pathway.
(1) Horizontal Conveying
In horizontal conveying, material granules experience thrust in the direction of motion. When the friction between material layers surpasses the outer friction from the tube wall, a stable material stream is formed by the chain disc, ensuring a steady flow.
(2) Vertical Conveying
During vertical conveying, material granules are subjected to upward thrust from the chain disc. As the lower material hinders the downward glide of the upper material, lateral compression occurs, enhancing internal friction. When this internal friction exceeds the friction from the tube walls and material's weight, the material is effortlessly conveyed upwards, forming a continuous stream.
Features
The Tube Chain Conveyor has been incorporated into standardized schemes for applications such as powder-making,oil production, and storage systems in our country, making it a preferred choice across various industries. Its primary features include:
1,Compact design,lightweight construction,minimal space requirement,and ease of manufacturing,installation,operation, and maintenance.
2,The discharge outlet requires no dust catcher, and the system can be filled with gas during material transport.
3,Materials move smoothly along the tube with minimal breakage. The slow, curved conduit minimizes the creation of small granule oddments.
4,It boasts low energy consumption and economical operating costs, as the entire system is driven by a single motor.
5,The system is designed to prevent blockages and is suitable for a wide range of material forms.
