RETARDING CONVEYOR

Specialty Definition: RETARDING CONVEYOR

Domain	Definition
Mining	A. A chain-type conveyor used on steeply inclined faces, where the problem is not so much to move the coal but rather to restrain its movement downhill. It consists of link chains carrying discs 6 to 8 in (15 to 20 cm) in diameter at every yard (0.9 m). The endless chain runs in an open semicircular trough, and the coal is lowered to the discharge end. The chain returns uphill, in an enclosed tube, to the driving unit at the top end. Its capacity is about 100 tons per hour b. Any type of conveyor used to retard the rate of movement of bulk materials, packages, or objects, where the slope is such that the conveyed material tends to propel the conveying medium.See also:declining conveyor.
