It mainly consists of a machine head, buckets, a bucket belt, a riser pipe, a machine base, etc., and has the characteristics of safe and reliable operation, simple structure, and complete functions.

[0003] At present, the bucket elevators in factories adopt the overlap of the outer edges of the buckets to prevent material leakage during feeding. And generally, the buckets are filled with 75% of the bucket volume. If filled too much, there will be a problem of material leakage. At the same time, the running speed cannot be too fast. When the buckets are in the vertical section, they will rotate to achieve the center of gravity balance. If the speed is too fast, the materials will also spill. Summary of the Utility Model
