A laboratory device designed to detect and measure the resistance force of a conveyor belt diagonal plough
Original language description
This paper presents a laboratory device simulating a section of a conveyor belt in which a diagonal plough is installed. Experimental measurements were carried out in a laboratory of the Department of Machine and Industrial Design at the VSB-Technical University of Ostrava. During them, a plastic crate, representing a piece load, transported on the surface of a conveyor belt at a constant speed came into contact with the front surface of a conveyor belt diagonal plough. The aim of this paper is to determine the amount of resistance generated by the conveyor belt diagonal plough, placed at different angles of inclination β [deg] in relation to the longitudinal axis, based on the experimental measurements done using a laboratory measuring device. From the measured values of the tensile force required to keep the conveyor belt moving at a constant speed, the resistance to the conveyor belt movement is expressed, attaining a size of 20.8 +- 0.3 N. From the ratio of the measured value of the arithmetic average of the resistance force and the weight of the used length of the conveyor belt, the mean value of the specific movement resistance of the size 0.33 [N.N-1] is calculated. This paper presents the time records obtained by measuring the tensile forces, from which it is possible to determine the magnitude of the force. It presents the resistance during the ploughing operation provided by the diagonal plough when acting on a piece load that is placed on the working surface of the conveyor belt. From the measured values of tensile forces entered in the tables, this paper presents the calculated values of the friction coefficient obtained during the movement of the diagonal plough when moving a piece of load with the defined weight from the working surface of the relevant conveyor belt. The maximum value of the arithmetic mean for the friction coefficient in motion µ = 0.86 was measured at the inclination angle β = 30 deg of the diagonal plough.
