This invention relates to the field of
belt conveyor technology and discloses a tubular
belt conveyor system, comprising: at least two support sections; a cable
assembly connected to the at least two support sections, the cable
assembly including multiple cables arranged in parallel; several sets of support rod assemblies spaced apart along the extension direction of the cables, each set of support rod assemblies including multiple support rods connected end-to-end in sequence, each support rod connected between two adjacent cables, and idlers connected to the support rods, the idlers being rotatable relative to the support rods, the idlers on the multiple support rods forming a receiving space; and a
conveyor belt extending along the extension direction of the cables and located within the receiving space formed by the idlers. By connecting several support rod assemblies to the cable
assembly to form a flexible
system to support the
conveyor belt, the cables and support rods support each other, resulting in a stable structure, lighter weight, higher cable load-
bearing capacity, and stronger spanning capacity of the entire
system; directly mounting the idlers on the support rods simplifies assembly, facilitates construction, reduces steel consumption, lightens weight, and reduces the load on the support sections.
