TH Chain Bucket Elevator

What is TH Chain Bucket Elevator?

TH Chain Bucket Elevator is a heavy-duty vertical conveyor designed for efficiently transporting bulk materials such as cement, coal, grain, sand, and minerals. Featuring high-strength TH chains and reinforced buckets, this elevator ensures high lifting capacity, long service life, and minimal maintenance, making it ideal for industries requiring continuous material handling.

 

TH Chain Bucket Elevator adopts chain traction, which is firmly connected to the hopper, with little chain wear, and can transport materials with higher temperatures.

What are the advantages of TH Chain Bucket Elevator?

High-strength chain: low-alloy high-strength round link chain is used, which has been specially heat-treated and has excellent tensile strength and wear resistance, ensuring long-term and stable operation of the equipment.

Large-capacity hopper: The hopper has a large volume, high layout density, a wide lifting range, and can carry up to 50 tons/hour.

Good sealing: Each section and inspection door is equipped with a sealing device to prevent dust leakage and keep the production environment clean.

Efficient drive system: The drive wheel adopts an integral structure, and the surface is specially reinforced, which is easy to operate, high in strength and good in wear resistance.

Custom bucket options – deep shovel, shallow shovel or side-mounted design

How does TH Chain Bucket Elevator work?

TH Chain Bucket Elevator drives the chain and bucket to circulate in a closed casing through a drive device. The material enters the bucket from the lower feed port, is lifted to the top by the chain, and is discharged to the discharge port under the action of centrifugal force, thus realizing vertical transportation of the material.

What are the applications of TH Chain Bucket Elevator?

TH Chain Bucket Elevator adopts mixed or gravity unloading and excavation loading, and is suitable for conveying powdery, granular and small-particle bottom abrasive materials with a bulk density less than 1.5t/m3 and easy to dig out, such as coal, cement, gravel, sand, limestone, gypsum, ore, fertilizer, chemical raw materials, wheat, corn, rice and other materials.

What are the structures of TH Chain Bucket Elevator?

Running parts-consisting of hopper and special ring chain, the chain has high tensile strength and good wear resistance.

Driving device - adopts a variety of driving combinations to drive, (depending on the actual needs of the user). The driving platform is equipped with a maintenance frame and a railing. The drive system is divided into two types: left and right.

The upper device - is equipped with rails (double-row chains), backstops, and the discharge port is equipped with an anti-return rubber plate.

Intermediate section - Part of the intermediate section is equipped with a track (double chain) to prevent the chain from swinging during operation.

Lower unit - fitted with automatic tensioner.

TH chain bucket elevator has two types of hoppers:

Zh type (medium-deep bucket) is generally suitable for conveying wet, caking, and difficult-to-throw materials, such as wet sand, molding sand, fertilizer, alkali powder, etc.

Sh type (deep bucket) is suitable for conveying dry, loose and easy to throw materials, such as cement, clinker, gravel, coal, etc., and its conveying capacity is also larger than that of Zh type.
