Introduction
As a kind of continuous material handling equipment, apron feeder is set under the silo or funnel with a certain cabinet pressure, used for continuously feeding or transferring material to the crusher, conveyor or other machines in the horizontal or oblique direction (maximum upward inclination angle up to 25 degrees). It is especially suitable for transporting large blocks, high temperatures and sharp materials, also runs steadily in open air and humid environments. This equipment is widely used in mining, metallurgy, building materials and coal industries.
Working Principle
The motor drives the sprocket shaft via reducer, and drags the chain plate to make a continuous linear motion by the meshing of sprocket teeth with the chain pin. The chain plate is supported by the supporting wheels and chain wheels mounted on the frame. Tension device can be adjusted to make sure the chain is properly meshed with the sprocket, thus achieving continuous and uniform feeding.
