It supersedes BS4531:1969 which is withdrawn. It applies to portable and mobile

11、troughed belt conveyors, and is a companion standard to BS2890. This revision specifies more detailed requirements for pulley and idler lengths than the earlier edition. The relationship between specified dimensions and those in the relevant ISO standard are also now given in this standard. For safe

12、ty precautions only handrails have been included in this revised standard. Safety requirements and statutory requirements will be the subject of a future code of practice. The attention of users of this standard is drawn to the need to comply with all the statutory instruments and regulations approp

13、riate to the equipment, its siting and use, covered by this standard. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immu

14、nity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 to10, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the am

Certain limitations occur in pulley diameters and configurations with the use of cleats or chevrons

29、, and these are noted in the text. 3.1 Belt width The belt width shall be selected from the following: 3.2 Belt length 3.2.1 Belting which is ordered to a definite open-ended length shall be supplied with a tolerance on its length of in accordance with BS490-1. 3.2.2 The length of a belt supplied in

30、 the spliced endless form (net endless length) shall not vary by more than0.5%from the specified length in accordance with BS490-1. 3.2.3 In the case of moulded profile belts the net endless length shall be a multiple of the profile pitch length. 3.3 Belt edge clearance The minimum belt edge clearan

31、ce shall be as given in Table 1, as appropriate.

The nominal belt carrying capacity shall be s

32、uch that the conveyor will operate without spillage. NOTEThe belt width and speed (upon which the belt carrying capacity depends) should be chosen to suit the particular application, with due regard to the nature, size grading, characteristics and surcharge angle of the material to be handled. 4 Tak

33、e-up devices 4.1 The conveyor shall be equipped with a take-up device to ensure adequate belt tension for driving, to limit belt sag to2%of the belt span between carrying idlers, and to compensate for variations in belt length. 300mm 400mm 450mm a 500mm 600mm 650mm 750mm a 800mm 900mm a 1000mm 1050m

37、lt stretch during normal working life. 5 Pulleys (including motorized pulleys) 5.1 Pulley face length The pulley face length, which shall be greater than the belt width to take account of any belting tolerances and misalignment, shall be selected from the lengths given in Table 2, as appropriate. Ta

38、ble 2 Minimum pulley face length 5.2 Pulley diameters NOTEA typical crowned pulley profile is shown in Figure 4. 5.2.1 General. The nominal diameter of a flat or crowned pulley (D1) shall exclude the thickness of any pulley lagging. The nominal diameter of a crowned pulley is its maximum diameter (D

39、1). 5.2.2 Diameter in relation to belt construction. The minimum pulley diameters for belts of different carcass thickness shall be as given in Table 3, as appropriate. NOTEThe use of pulleys with diameters that are too small for the carcass thickness and construction of the belt may lead to prematu

40、re failure of the belt. The pulley diameters shown are satisfactory for the recommended maximum belt tension (RMBT). If the belt is to operate at an anticipated maximum tension which is lower than its recommended maximum belt tension (RMBT), the appropriate belt tension figure shall be chosen from c

41、olumn1 of Table 3. NOTEIf metal fastener joints are to be used, these should be selected to suit the pulley diameter. Care should be taken to provide driving pulleys of sufficient diameter to ensure adequate traction. 5.3 Pulley profiles The pulley surface shall have a flat or crowned profile depend

42、ing upon the application. The crown profile shall be regular and symmetrical about the centre of the pulley face width. The nominal diameter (D1) shall not exceed the edge diameter (D2) by more than1%of the pulley face width (L). NOTE 1A typical crowned pulley profile is shown in Figure 4. NOTE 2Cro

43、wning should not be applied to snub or bend pulleys. 5.4 Pulley shell thickness The thickness of the pulley shell shall be such that the pulley shall resist buckling due to the belt tension and failure due to wear or corrosion. 5.5 Pulley bearing life Bearings shall be designed to give a minimum wor
