Its common classification is divided into: belt type, plate chain type, and ring chain type according to the form of traction components.
①Belt type
bucket elevator: It has the advantages of low cost, small mass, high speed, stable operation and low noise, but low strength, and the fixed part of the hopper on the belt is a weak link, so the height is not raised, generally The material temperature of the tape does not exceed 60°C, the steel wire tape can reach 80°C, and the heat-resistant tape can reach 120°C.
② Plate chain bucket elevator: Different from the old type TB plate chain bucket elevator, its naming method adopts the lifting amount instead of the hopper width, and the temperature of the conveying material can reach 250°C. Large bucket elevator, but the hinged joints wear a lot.
③Ring chain bucket elevator: This series of bucket elevators uses forged ring chain as the transmission part, which has strong mechanical strength, and the temperature of the conveying material can reach 250°C. The connection between the ring chain and the hopper is also strong, and the chain wear is small. But since it is serious, it is suitable for abrasive materials.
