How to Solve Problem of Bucket Elevator Ash Blocking

After technicians analyze the situation and reasons of bucket elevator blockage, they have found that most this kind of situation is caused by unreasonable design of bucket elevator. Now PK Machinery has put forward two methods to solve ash blocking on connecting pipe of bucket elevator. 

1. Increase the tilt angle of this connecting pipe so as to increase the flow speed of coarse and fine ash in the tube and reduce the chance of plugging ash. But this programs need to improve the overall height of all scraper conveyor. 

2. Add a vibrator below the connecting pipe to make it send ash actively. Interlock vibrator and start-stop signal of removing ash system so that it can achieve intermittent vibration. Vibration time, frequency, intermittent time can be adjusted and added to the control system according to bucket elevator working condition to achieve automatic operation. This program can solve the phenomenon of ash blocking on connection pipe.
