INCLINED CONVEYOR WITH SUSPENDED BELT Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC B65G15/08 B65G43/06 

FIELD: mechanical engineering; materials handling equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to conveyor building, namely, to inclined conveyor with suspended belt, designed for carrying lump loads. Proposed conveyor has endless belt closed in vertical plane and forming upper carrying and lower return runs with brackets connected to belt sides on which running rolls are installed for engagement with guides. Cylindrical rollers are arranged at equal pitch between carrying an return runs to rotate on fixed axles and interconnected by longitudinal members located at two sides. Free ends of longitudinal members are connected with frame in upper and lower parts of conveyor by means of braces. Longitudinal members are made in form of articulated rigid strips interconnected in spans between rollers by cross U-shaped plates. Upper parts of bent off edges of U-shaped plates are bent additionally to side from longitudinal axis of conveyor to arranged said parts with clearance relative to carrying run of belt. Longitudinal strips are coupled with conveyor posts by side braces.

EFFECT: simplified design, provision of simultaneous catching of both runs of conveyor torn off belt.
