Abstract:
A seafloor vertical hoisting system for hoisting ore from the seafloor, the hoisting system comprising a drive mechanism, at least one line adapted to be driven by the drive mechanism, a plurality of containers adapted to be operatively attached to the at least one line, a first casing adapted to at least partially encase the at least one line and the plurality of containers as they are hoisted relative to the seafloor and a second casing adapted to at least partially encase the at least one line and the plurality of containers as they are lowered towards the seafloor.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device (34) for the selective relocation of bulk goods (35) discharged from the discharge end (22) of a conveyor belt (20) in a redirected direction (38) running normal to the conveyor belt direction (16). Said device has a movable redirecting unit (24) which can be moved by a drive (27) and which is arranged at the discharge end (22) of the conveyor belt (20). The redirecting unit (24) is arranged above the conveyor belt (20) and is constructed to be rotatable about a vertical axis (25), and said axis (25) is located farther away from the discharge end (22) of the conveyor belt (20) than is the free end (26) of the redirecting unit (24) which is positioned at the discharge end (22).
Abstract:
In accordance with presently disclosed embodiments, systems and methods for using containers, instead of pneumatic transfer, to move bulk material from a transportation unit to a blender receptacle (e.g., hopper or mixer of a blender) are provided. A transportation unit may deliver multiple containers of bulk material to the well site, where multiple conveyors may deliver the containers to a location proximate the blender receptacle. Openings at the bottom of the containers are arranged adjacent one another so that the load of two containers may be delivered to the tight space occupied by the blender receptacle. Since the transportation unit is able to unload the containers of bulk material without pneumatic transfer, the containers may enable a cleaner and more efficient bulk material transfer at the site.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a support structure for supporting a belt of an enclosed belt conveyor between two transport units and a corresponding method. The support structure (1000) between two transport units (100) comprises a first end element (1100) with a main extension in a longitudinal direction (L11), a width extension in a width direction (W11) orthogonal to the longitudinal direction and a height extension in a height direction (H11) orthogonal to the longitudinal and the width direction, at least one guide assembly (30, 36) for engaging opposite longitudinal edges of a belt of an enclosed belt conveyor, a first telescopic element (1500) connected to the first end element, wherein an outer end (1101) of the first end element has a first end connector (1110) adapted to form a connection with a first transport unit.
Abstract:
Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Fördergurt (100), insbesondere Rohrfördergurt oder Taschenfördergurt, mit einem Gurtkörper (10), welcher eine tragseitige Deckplatte (11) zur Aufnahme von zu transportierenden Fördergut aufweist, wobei auf der tragseitigen Deckplatte (11) eine im Wesentlichen in senkrechter Richtung (Z) zur Oberfläche (21) der tragseitigen Deckplatte (11) ausgebildete Profilierung ausgebildet ist, wobei die Profilierung (14) entlang einer Längsrichtung (X) der tragseitigen Deckplatte (11) mehrere Querstreifen-Profilierungsbereiche (15) aufweist, wobei die Profilierung (14) zusätzlich zu den Querstreifen-Profilierungsbereichen (15) entlang der Längsrichtung (X) der tragseitigen Deckplatte (11) mehrere Chevron-Profilierungsbereiche (16) aufweist.
Abstract:
A method for monitoring a bearing is disclosed. The method involves positioning a non-contacting bearing isolator adjacent a bearing on a piece of rotating equipment so that at least one operating parameter of said bearing is communicated to said bearing isolator; and, positioning an energy detector within range of said bearing isolator so that said energy detector is able to monitor said at least one operating parameter of said bearing by detecting at least one operating parameter of said bearing isolator.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a conveyor belt (100), in particular a tubular conveyor belt or a pocket conveyor belt, having a belt body (10), which has a cover plate (11) on the carrying side for receiving conveyable material to be transported, wherein a profiling formed substantially in the direction (Z) perpendicular to the surface (21) of the cover plate (11) on the carrying side is formed on the cover plate (11) on the carrying side. The profiling (14) has a plurality of transverse strip profiling regions (15) along a longitudinal direction (X) of the cover plate (11) on the carrying side, wherein the profiling (14) has a plurality of chevron profiling regions (16) in addition to the transverse strip profiling regions (15) along the longitudinal direction (X) of the cover plate (11) on the carrying side.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Fördervorrichtung (12, 13), die ein Förderband (1) mit einem Fördertrum (2) zum Fördern von Schüttgut und einem Rücklauftrum umfasst. Das Fördertrum (2) weist eine Förderfläche (4) auf, auf der ein Materialstrom (5) verläuft, dessen Förderrate durch das Produkt aus einer Lineargeschwindigkeit des Fördertrums (2) und einem Förderquerschnitt (9) des Materialstroms (5) gegeben ist. Die Erfindung zeichnet sich durch einen variablen Förderstrombegrenzer (7) aus, der zwischen einer ersten und einer zweiten Position bewegbar ist. Der Förderquerschnitt (9) ist stromabwärts des Förderstrombegrenzers (7) in der zweiten Position kleiner als in der ersten Position.
