BS EN 16974:2016EN 16974:2016 (E) 4 1 Scope This European St

16、andard defines a method for the determination of the width related indentation rolling resistance of conveyor belts. The goal is that the method easily and quickly delivers values which are reproducible and relevant for the practical use. The test results enable a comparing evaluation and the design

17、 of belt conveyors with steelcord and fabric conveyor belts. This European Standard is not suitable or valid for light conveyor belts described in EN ISO 21183-1. 2 Normative references Not applicable. 3 General information The indentation rolling resistance is caused by the energy loss connected to

18、 the deformation of the conveyor belt due to its contact with the idler. Apart from the technological properties of the conveyor belt the magnitude of the indentation rolling resistance depends on the following factors: design of the conveyor belt, especially the pulley side cover plate thickness; v

19、ertical load; idler diameter; ambient temperature; belt speed. The width related indentation rolling resistance is measured in a test rig with an idler which exerts an evenly distributed vertical force on the belt. An indentation rolling resistance to be used for the design of belt conveyors for an

20、idler station with more than one idler can only be calculated considering the vertical forces and their distribution between belt and idler (refer to Annex A).

Table 2 Indices Index Meaning m Middle idler s Side idler 5 Test rig The testing apparatus is a test rig with a rotating belt sample, constructed with a drive pulley and a tensioning pulley. Bot

26、h pulleys have a minimum diameter of 800 mm (Figure 1). The distance axis-to-axis has a minimum value of 3 500 mm. For high strength conveyor belts and large splice lengths differing pulley diameters and distances axis-to-axis shall be agreed upon with the operator of the test rig. The belt speed is

27、 adjustable and is constantly monitored with appropriate sensors. The complete test rig is placed in an isolated climate chamber, so that the ambient temperature can be adjusted with suitable heating and cooling devices. In the top run there is a special measuring arrangement with which an idler can

28、 be pressed down on to the belt with a defined force. As counter support an idler is installed. This idler has a minimum diameter DR,Gof 400 mm and the diameter shall be larger than the diameter of the measuring idler by a minimum factor of 1,5. R,G R,M1,5DD (1) The diameters DR,Gand DR,Mshall be ch

29、osen corresponding to the parameters of the belt conveyor and to be agreed upon with the operator of the test rig. The test rig shall be constructed in a way that it is possible to install the test belt as an endless belt. Figure 1 shows a schematic picture of the test rig. Key 1 temperature isolati

30、ng chamber Figure 1 Schematic picture of the test rig BS EN 16974:2016EN 16974:2016 (E) 7 For the measurement of the indentation rolling resistance idlers with varying diameters and shell lengths are used. These are installed in an adjustable frame. The shell length of the idler shall be at least 10

31、 % longer than the width of the test belt. The frame shall be in a statically simply fixed position. It shall be avoided that the position is over-determined and that resulting forces are created. These could distort the measurement results. All suspension points shall be equipped with suitable forc

32、e sensors in order to determine all suspending forces unambiguously. The perpendicular alignment of the measuring idler to the belt can be checked with the help of a force sensor which records the forces that act in axial direction upon the idler, if the alignment is not correct. In order to determi

33、ne the width related indentation rolling resistance the forces are measured which act upon the left and the right side of the idler and therefore upon the frame with suitable force sensors. To calculate the indentation rolling resistance from these values, the part of the horizontal force cause by t

34、he idler rolling resistance shall be known and shall be subtracted from the measured horizontal force FM,h. The idler rolling resistance can either be measured simultaneously with suitable sensors, or it can be measured separately. In this case the test parameters of the measurement of indentation r

35、olling resistance need to be taken into consideration. 6 Preparation of test samples The endless length of the test belts depends on the distance axis-to-axis of the test rig L and the pulley diameter DTrand deviations from the values stated in clause 5 shall be agreed with the operator of the test

36、rig. The width of the test belt shall be a minimum of 350 mm. For steel cord belts the width of the rubber belt edge shall be chosen as follows: =k1()2b td (2) In fabric belts rubber edges shall be avoided, so that the belt width is equal to the width of the tension carrier. The test belts shall be

37、joined with a splice of minimized length, which can differ from the standard splice layout. The horizontal force measured in the splice area can differ from the force measured in the belt. Therefore it is not taken into consideration for the calculation of the indentation rolling resistance. 7 Proce

38、dure The cover plate to be measured shall be in contact with the measuring idler. Prior to each measurement the test rig shall be operated in constant test conditions long enough, so that the idler running resistance and the measured horizontal forces reach a steady-state. The complete test rig shal

39、l be brought to the desired temperature over a sufficiently long time, so that in the complete cross section of the test belt the temperature equals the surrounding temperature in the climate chamber of the test rig. In order to cancel the influence of zero drift errors when measuring the horizontal

40、 forces acting on the measuring idler, the belt running direction shall be alternated several times during the measurement. The value of the difference between the measured horizontal force of the belt running to the left FM,h,land the belt running to the right FM,h,ris taken into account for the ca

41、lculation of the indentation rolling resistance. The measurements shall be performed with a test idler of which the diameter DR,Mequals the diameter of the idlers in the conveyor. The vertical forces used in the measurements shall be chosen according to the normal forces between belt and idler stati

42、on in the real life conveyor. The different temperatures TUset in the climate chamber of the test rig shall be chosen corresponding to the temperatures to be expected at the real life conveyor. BS EN 16974:2016EN 16974:2016 (E) 8 In order to gain accurate results it is important to achieve an introd

43、uction free from superpositions of the vertical force FM,v which is a magnitude larger than the measured horizontal forces. A possible influence on the horizontal force from the vertical force shall be taken into consideration. 8 Calculation and expression of results The width related indentation ro

44、lling resistance FEis calculated from the absolute value of the difference between the horizontal force measured for the belt running to the left FM,h,land running to the right FM,h,r, considering their different algebraic signs. Furthermore the rolling resistance FRof the used measuring idler shall
