With the continuous development of industrial automation, belt conveyors, as an important transportation equipment, are widely used in various industrial fields.However, during the operation of belt conveyors, various faults or unexpected situations may be encountered, such as belt slipping, belt breakage, deviation, overload, etc. These problems may lead to equipment damage or production interruption.Therefore, in order to ensure the safe and stable operation of the belt conveyor, seven safety function devices are required. Through the article, you will learn about 7 belt conveyor protection devices.
The following will introduce seven necessary conveyor protection devices:
Anti slip protection device: Anti slip protection device is one of the most common protection devices for belt conveyors.Simply put, the anti slip protection device is designed to automatically stop the belt conveyor when the driving roller slips and rubs against the conveyor belt, effectively avoiding more serious losses. At present, the most common anti slip protection device is the inductive anti slip protection device.
Belt breakage protection device: The belt breakage protection device is a protective device used to monitor whether the belt is broken. When the belt breaks, the protective device will quickly send a signal and take corresponding measures, such as shutting down the feeder, stopping transportation, etc., to prevent the accident from expanding. In addition, the protective device can also ensure continuous production by replacing broken belts.
Deviation protection device: The deviation protection device is a protective device used to monitor whether the belt is deviating. When the belt deviates, the protective device will send a signal and take corresponding measures, such as adjusting the position of the passive drum, adjusting the tension of the belt, etc., to correct the deviation of the belt. In addition, the protective device can also improve the stability of the belt by increasing the tension of the belt.
Overload protection device: Overload protection device is used to monitor whether the belt material exceeds the set flow rate. When the conveyor belt is overloaded, the protective device will send a signal and take corresponding measures, such as turning off the feeder, stopping the conveying, etc., to prevent equipment damage or production interruption. In addition, the protective device can also adjust the material flow rate by controlling the speed of the feeder, ensuring that the belt is not overloaded.
By increasing the tension of the belt, the stability of the belt can be improved.
Temperature protection device: The temperature protection device is a protective device used to monitor the temperature of various parts of the belt conveyor. When abnormal heating or excessive temperature of the equipment is detected, the protective device will send a signal and take corresponding measures, such as turning off the power, stopping transportation, etc., to prevent the equipment from overheating or burning out, which may damage the equipment. The protective device can also reduce the temperature of the equipment through methods such as heat dissipation and lubrication to ensure its normal operation.
Smoke protection device: The smoke protection device is a protective device used to monitor the smoke condition of various parts of the belt conveyor. When smoke is detected, the protective device will send a signal and take corresponding measures, such as turning off the power, stopping transportation, etc., to prevent dangerous situations such as equipment catching fire or explosion. In addition, the protective device can also reduce the risk of fire by installing fire extinguishers, strengthening ventilation, and other methods.
Speed protection device: The speed protection device is a protective device used to monitor the speed of various parts of the belt conveyor. When abnormal deceleration or stagnation of the equipment is detected, the protection device will send a signal and take corresponding measures, such as turning off the power supply, stopping transportation, etc., to prevent equipment damage. In addition, during production interruption, the protection device can also eliminate faults by checking the power supply, adjusting the tension of the passive drum, etc., to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
The protective device of a belt conveyor is one of the important means to ensure its safe and stable operation. The above introduces various common protection devices and their functions, hoping to help everyone better understand and master the relevant knowledge of belt conveyor protection devices.
