Filed:

Nov 28, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/996109

Inventors:

John S. Fischer - Boulder CO
Edgar Hugh Schwartz - Kersey CO

Assignee:

Air Control Science, Inc. - Boulder CO

International Classification:

B65G 1508

US Classification:

198826, 198823, 198824, 198825

Abstract:

A bed rail assembly apparatus that is inserted between idlers in an existing conveyor system. The bed rail assembly apparatus includes a support rail oriented substantially parallel to and beneath the conveyor belt. A first bed rail assembly on a first side of the support rail and is oriented at an angle to the horizontal surface of the conveyor belt to support a first side of conveyor belt to be inclined upwards. Small diameter, closely spaced rollers, are affixed to the inclined surface of each bed rail assembly to support the inclined side of the conveyor belt and reduce friction between the rollers and the conveyor belt. A second inclined bed rail assembly on a second side of the support rail is inclined upwards to support a second inclined side of the conveyor belt. Small diameter rollers are affixed to the inclined surface of the second bed rail assembly to incline upward a second side of the conveyor belt and to reduce friction between the second inclined bed rail assembly and the conveyor belt.

Abstract:

A roller bed that is inserted between idlers in a conveyor belt system. The roller bed includes a base plate that is oriented substantially parallel to said surface of said conveyor belt. A first side plate on a first side of the base plate is oriented at an angle to the surface of the conveyor belt to support a first side of conveyor belt and cause the first side of the conveyor belt to be angled upwards with respect to a plane of the surface. Small diameter rollers, very closely spaced, are affixed to a surface of the first side plate to support the conveyor belt and reduce friction between the side plate and the conveyor belt. A second side plate on a second side of the base plate is oriented at an angle to the surface of the conveyor belt to support a second side of the conveyor belt and cause the second side of the conveyor belt to be angled upwards with respect to the plane of the surface. Rollers that are affixed to a surface of the second plate of the conveyor belt to support the conveyor belt and reduce friction between the side plate and the conveyor belt.

Appl. No.:

10/360904

Inventors:

John S. Fischer - Boulder CO, US

Assignee:

Air Control Science, Inc. - Boulder CO

International Classification:

B65B001/04

US Classification:

141 59, 141 67, 141286, 193 25 C, 193 30, 414291

Abstract:

A Dustless Stacker hood for suppressing dust generated during the stockpiling of materials such as coal. The Dustless Stacker hood receives coal from overhead chute; the received coal falls through Dustless Stacker hood to the top of a stockpile, and the Dustless Stacker hood confines dust inside Dustless Stacker hood. The dust-laden air swirls within the Dustless Stacker hood through a recirculation pipe and back to the overhead chute to enhance an agglomeration process which causes the dust particles stick together and fall to the top of stockpile.

International Classification:

B65G 47/04

US Classification:

198525, 198532, 1985502, 198561

Abstract:

A device for eliminating fugitive material dust emanating from material being transferred from an upper conveyor, feeder or crusher to a lower position, or other location. The device allows adjustability of the chute's total flow capacity where increased capacity is required. The device has a sliding gate disposed in the hopper to control the rate of transfer of the material from the hopper. A chute is disposed below the hopper and is movable in both a lateral direction (transverse to the direction of belt travel), and movable in the axis of belt travel. A choke is slidably attached to the chute, and slidable therein. The gate is positioned to maintain a level of material in the hopper to prevent dust from emanating out of the hopper from the chute. The choke is positioned to reduce airflow through the material as it passes through the chute to a lower position.

US Classification:

198495, 198364, 198536, 414397, 239175

Abstract:

A tripper car adapted to transfer particulate material such as coal while maintaining a reduced level of dust proximate the area in which said tripper car moves. The tripper car continuously receives coal from a moving conveyor belt and transfers the coal from a first to a second location. At the second location, the tripper car discharges the coal to a silo that stores the coal for subsequent use by boilers. The tripper car sprays liquid, such as water, to reduce the accumulation of coal dust within a structure in which the tripper car operates as well as to wash the inner walls, ceiling and other proximate surfaces to reduce accumulation of coal dust. The spray pattern is oriented to reduce the spraying of liquid on the coal.
