Abstract

Some results of the comparison of the CLS with moving clamping elements and clamping elements fixed on the line of the conveyor are given. The assessment was carried out on the main limiting parameters for hourly cargo traffic in the range of 1000-6000t/h using rubber cable belts. The advantages of steeply inclined conveyors with moving clamping elements based on the specifics of the operation of conveyor belts in the transition section are shown. As a result of the study of possible types of wear of conveyor belts, it has been proposed to use the formula for estimating the duration of their service, which determines the duration of the belts operation on traditional belt conveyors transporting coarse rock mass. For conditional conveyor, considered structures calculated service life of conveyor belts. The cost comparison of conveyor belts showed that the ratio of initial costs and operating costs of conveyor belts of high-inclined conveyors with moving clamping elements to the corresponding costs and expenses of high-inclined conveyor belts with stationary clamping elements for a conditional conveyor is 0.87 and 0.65 respectively.
