Apron feeder in coal handling plant is composed of chain, sprocket, frame, driving device, plate, tension device, etc., the tension device is mainly the common screw adjustment way to ensure that the tightness of the chain is suitable for the operation of apron feeder in coal handling plant. The tension device of the apron feeder in coal handling plant is usually located at the tail of the apron feeder in coal handling plant, and the tail sprocket link. By rotating the screw of the tension device, the sprocket belt drives the chain to move forward or backward to achieve the purpose of adjusting the chain tightness.
The tension device of apron feeder in coal handling plant generally refers to the device that regulates the tightness of the chain. Its main function is to maintain the stability and balance of the chain and ensure the uniform flow of materials on the chain. The following is the adjustment and use of the tension device of the apron feeder in coal handling plant:
Regulation method
(1) First, open the upper cover plate of the apron feeder in coal handling plant and find the tension device, which is usually located at the tail of the chain.
(2) Loosen the bolts on the tensioning device, loosen the chain, and make it loose.
(3) Adjust the adjusting nut on the tensioning device to make the chain moderately tensioned, not too tight or too loose.
(4) Tighten the bolts on the tensioning device to fix the chain.
(5) Close the upper cover plate of the apron feeder in coal handling plant, start the machine, and check the operation of the chain.
Usage method
(1) Check the tension device of apron feeder in coal handling plant regularly to ensure its normal operation.
(2) Avoid excessive tightening of the chain, otherwise it will lead to increased wear and shorten the service life of the chain.
(3) Avoid excessive relaxation of the chain, otherwise it will lead to poor and uneven material flow, affecting the production efficiency.
(4) In the operation of apron feeder in coal handling plant, regularly check whether there is fracture, wear, aging and other problems of the chain, timely replacement or maintenance.
In short, the tension device of apron feeder in coal handling plant is an important part of ensuring the normal operation of the machine, which needs to be adjusted and used reasonably to avoid failure and accident.
