Bucket attachment

For many vertical conveying applications the chain bucket elevator is the preferred system in many industries. Chain bucket elevators are used for example in the cement industry, lime and gypsum plants, sugar industry, coal industry, fertilizer industry, in food processing industry and many other fields. Chain bucket elevators have several obvious advantages compared with belt elevators when handling high temperature, abrasive, sticky or sharp bulk materials.

Application:

In the bulk materials industry for bucket conveyors up to 60 m high, and with a conveyor speed of up to 1.65 m/s.

Advantages:

• Endless chain strands canbe used
• The attachment can runover sprocket wheels and nontoothedchain wheels
• Quickly mounted and dismountedwithout special tools
• Suitable for replacing allother bucked attachments inround steel link chain bucketelevators except those whichmounted to the bucket sidewall.

Assembly:

• Insert one mounted side into the chain, and place the second side over the axlepin.
• Attach the bucket by screwing two nuts onto the two stud bolts. In the case of a preassembledshipment, simply turn the mounting clips against eachother, thread into the chain, and then close the fasteningon the back of the bucket.
