Abstract

627,563. Conveyers ; rope railways. MAVOR & COULSON, Ltd., and THOMSON, J. March 18, 1946, No. 8332. [Classes 78 (i) and 104 (ii)] A conveyer system comprises an endless belt having a lower run 4 arranged both for the direct and indirect conveyance of materials, the lower run being arranged to haul a wheeled load carrying carriage 8 along a track. The upper run 2 of the belt conveyer is supported by rollers 1 suspended from steel arches 3 of a mine road above the lower run 4 of the belt, the supporting rollers 5 for which are carried by sleepers 6. Rails 7 are carried by the sleepers and serve as a track for the wheeled carriage 8 straddling the belt run. The carriage 8 is provided with two drums 10, 12 around which passes the lower run 4 of the belt in an S bight so that they rotate in opposite directions. A shaft 13 carrying a friction wheel 14 is mounted in an eccentric bearing 15 and the shafts of the drums 10, 12 carry friction wheels 16, 17. By adjusting the eccentric with a lever 18, the shaft 13 can be brought into driving contact with one or other of the drums 10, 12 or into a neutral position as shown in Fig. 4. In this way the shaft 13 can be driven by the belt in either direction or remain at rest. The shaft is connected to the axle 20 of the carriage 8 by a sprocket wheel and chain gear 19. Brake means may be provided to keep the carriage at any desired point when the gear is in the neutral position. Fig. 7 shows a jail-embracing screw-operated and spring released clamp 22 for this purpose. When more than one conveyer is required, arrangements are made to enable a single carriage to be shunted from one portion of the track to another along rails 24 as shown in Fig. 9. A hauler 8a is driven by the lower run 4 of each conveyer and is connected to a simple wheeled transport carriage 8 which it hauls the length of one conveyer. The carriage is then uncoupled and pushed along the rails 24 into position on the next conveyer where it is coupled to the hauler pertaining thereto.
