BELT CONVEYOR Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC B65G15/00 B65G45/18 

FIELD: mechanical engineering; belt conveyors.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to belt conveyors with single-drum drive and deflecting drum installed in zone of belt running off from drive drum and it can be used at transporting sticky loads by belt conveyor. Proposed belt conveyor has frame, endless belt closed on drive and tensions drums, deflecting drum installed in zone of belt running off from drive drum and receiving funnel for handled material unloaded from conveyor. Deflecting drum is kinematically coupled with drive drum at gear ratio less than unity. Kinematic coupling is made in form of bevel gears installed on axles of both drums and transmission shaft with bevel gears on its ends installed for meshing with said bevel gears. Replaceable cleaning members are installed on cylindrical surface of deflecting drum for interaction with working surface of belt. Deflecting drum is enclosed by chute whose tilted section is connected with receiving funnel for transported material.

EFFECT: combination of functions of deflecting drum and belt cleaning appliance at increased pulling properties of single-drum drive of conveyor.
