The invention belongs to underground
coal mine
mechanical devices and particularly relates to a novel
belt conveyor which solves the problems of
high energy consumption and poor safety in the existing
belt conveyor. The conveyor comprises a body, an unloading portion, a head portion, a belt tensioning portion, a belt winding and unwinding device, a driving device, a transition off-tracking-proof front-arranged support roll group, a rubber belt, a self-movable
tail, a belt protection and
control system and a
video monitoring system. The novel
belt conveyor is applied to a working face of an underground
coal mine to convey raw
coal in a crossheading mode, can be used for long-distance large-quantity transportation, can adapt to various work conditions and roadway conditions, is high in operation stability and energy
utilization rate and simple to operate, greatly reduces labor intensity, saves cost and is an ideal transportation device. The performance of the conveyor can meet the requirements of underground coal mine coal transportation for safety, high efficiency and energy saving, and functions of soft starting, soft braking, automatic tensioning, immediate belt tension adjustment, simultaneous driving of the head and the
tail, returning of power generation work conditions and
electric energy to a grid, belt off tracking adjustment to achieve stable transportation and the like can be achieved.
