14、 conveyors are used for the controlled movement of a great variety of regular or irregular shapedcommodities, from light and fragile to heavy and rugged unit loads.The path is usually level, but it can be slightly inclined or declined, limited by the coefficient of friction between therollers and th

The unit loads ride directly upon theroller surfaces, and the rollers are driven by chains and sprockets.Roll-to-Roll Type -

26、A chain driven live roller conveyor in which power is transmitted from roll to roll via short chain loops,each of which encircles the sprocket attached to the adjacent driven rollers, causing each to rotate. Two sprockets are requiredfor each driven roller. (see Figures 1 through 8, Page 6)Continuou

GENERAL APPLICATION ENGINEERING DATAChain dr

41、iven live roller conveyors are used to carry loads with a flat, smooth, and firm bottom riding surface at controlledspeeds. They are better suited than belt driven live roller conveyors in applications where heat, dirt, oil, water, and othercontaminants are present. Chain driven live roller conveyor

42、s are ideal for carrying heavy or bulky loads.Conveyors may be spring mounted to absorb shock when being loaded or unloaded with heavy unit loads. They are idealconveyors when the application requires right angle transfers, such as disappearing chain transfers, push-on or push-off trans-fers, or con

43、verging sections.This construction is commonly used for the carrying bed of transfer cars, for powered beds in rollovers, upenders, dump units,turntables, and vertical reciprocating conveyors. Two sections of chain driven live roller may be tilted to form V-troughconstruction for handling cylindrica

44、l loads.Since power is transmitted to the carrying bed rollers by chain and sprockets, unit loads are always positively driven at acontrolled speed.2These conveyors work best when they are installed horizontally; however, depending on the unit load handled, they may beslightly inclined or declined.S

45、everal conveyors may be assembled in a line, and by controlling each conveyor, they can accumulate loads at zero storage linepressure by “cascading”, holding one load on each conveyor.Chain driven live roller conveyor may also be designed to accumulate loads by “indexing” or start-stop operation, re

46、sulting inzero storage line pressure between loads. Electric controls are provided at the receiving end of the conveyor to allow a load toindex forward onto the conveyor approximately one load length, then shutting down the conveyor. This indexing operation isrepeated until the conveyor is filled. T

47、he entire train of accumulated loads is then indexed, leaving an empty conveyor so theindexing cycle may be repeated.A combination of previously described “cascade” and “indexing” operations may also be used to provide accumulation at zerostorage line pressure.Ideally, three (3) rollers should be un

48、der the load at all times. Occasionally, two (2) rollers will be sufficient, depending on theunit load (product) handled. Carrying rollers are normally spaced 4“ to 12“ on centers. For centerlines between rollers greaterthan 12“, considerations may be required to compensate for chain sag between the

49、 rollers.Conveyors are normally run at speeds between 30 and 60 fpm; however, greater or lesser speeds may be used. For greaterspeeds, precision bearings and/or chain lubrication may be required. Chains and sprockets must be guarded.Fill-in plates may be added between the carrying rollers to assure that the leading edge of a unit load will ride on the carryingroller and not sag between rollers.There are many variations in drive arrangements. A common practice is to use a gear motor with output shaft connected by loopchain drive to the sprocket(s) on the drive roll(s). Another op
