What safety protection measures are there for Plane Turning Belt Conveyor?

Publish Time: 2024-09-14
Safety protection measures for the conveyor belt of a flat turning belt conveyor are important measures to ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment and protect the operators from harm.

1. Mechanical safety protection

Install protective covers:

In the transmission part of the conveyor, such as the transmission wheel, transmission belt and key components at the turning point, a sturdy protective cover should be installed to prevent the operator from directly contacting the rotating parts and avoid injuries such as pinching and entanglement.

Set up safety gates and fences:

Separate the conveyor from other equipment or areas, set up safety gates and fences to ensure that non-operating personnel cannot enter the dangerous area when the equipment is running. The safety door should be designed to automatically lock when the equipment is running or require specific operations to open.

Emergency stop device:

Install an emergency stop button or pull rope switch in a conspicuous position on the conveyor so that in an emergency, the operator can quickly cut off the power supply and stop the equipment from running to prevent the situation from escalating.

Anti-deviation device:

Considering that the conveyor belt of a flat turning belt conveyor is prone to deviation during the turning process, anti-deviation devices such as anti-deviation rollers and side guards should be installed to ensure that the conveyor belt can keep running on the correct track when turning.

Anti-tear detection:

Equipped with a tear detection switch to monitor whether the conveyor belt has longitudinal tearing. Once a tear is found, an alarm signal is immediately issued and the machine is shut down to prevent material leakage and further damage to the equipment.

2. Electrical safety protection

Electrical insulation and grounding:

Ensure that the electrical system of the conveyor has good insulation performance to prevent electrical components from leaking or short-circuiting. At the same time, the equipment should be reliably grounded so that when an electrical fault occurs, the current can be directed to the ground in time to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment.

Overload protection:

Install overload protectors for key electrical components such as motors. When the equipment load exceeds the rated value, the power supply is automatically cut off or the load is reduced to prevent motor overheating, burning and other faults.

3. Operation and maintenance safety

Operation procedures and safety training:

Develop complete operation procedures to clarify the responsibilities, operation procedures and safety precautions of operators. Provide safety education and training to new employees to ensure that they master the safe operating procedures and emergency response capabilities of the equipment.

Regular inspection and maintenance:

Regularly inspect and maintain key parts such as conveyor belts, transmission components, and electrical systems to promptly discover and deal with potential safety hazards. For example, check the wear of the conveyor belt, adjust the gap of transmission components, clean the dust of the electrical system, etc.

Non-professional operation is prohibited:

It is strictly forbidden for untrained or unqualified personnel to operate the flat turning belt conveyor to prevent safety accidents caused by improper operation.

The safety protection measures for the conveyor belt of the flat turning belt conveyor involve multiple aspects such as machinery, electricity, operation and maintenance. By taking these measures, the equipment failure rate and safety accident risks can be significantly reduced, ensuring the smooth progress of production activities.
