A bucket elevator or grain leg is a piece of equipment which is used to move materials in bulk. Bucket elevators are used in a wide variety of settings, including commercial agriculture and mining, and several specialty companies produce bucket elevators and accessories. These devices are used primarily when materials need to be handled in a large scale, and they are capable of moving huge volumes of bulk material every hour.
The machine has the advantages of big conveying capacity, high hoisting height, stable and reliable running and long service life. Performance and parameter are in accord with JB3926—85 'Vertical Bucket Elevator', which consults the international standard and advanced foreign standard and the towing circle chain is in accord with MT36—80 'High-Strength Circle Chain for Mine'. The machine is applicable for conveying the power, grain and block materials, such as coal, cement, block, sand, clay and ore. The bucket elevator is allowed to convey materials with high temperature when armed with special circle chain structure.
In general, most free flowing materials and the materials with poor flow characteristics can be successfully handled with a bucket elevator. The rate at which materials can be elevated depends on many factors in addition to the obvious effects of bucket design, capacity and speed. Particular attention has to be paid to material feeding and discharging characteristics.
