The curved chain conveyor enables natural direction changes along the designed curved path by employing a rational design for its curved track and making appropriate modifications to the conveyor’s ‘H-frame’. Suitable for tunnels with turning angles of 45 degrees, 90 degrees, and 180 degrees. Due to the emergence of various mechanical conveying devices, most industrial enterprises use these conveying devices. With the development of industrial technology, conveyors have also seen continuous improvement and innovation to a certain extent. To date, one type of conveyor, namely the turning chain plate conveyor, is widely used in the production lines of various industrial enterprises. The design method for curved chain conveyor systems also requires the following: 1. Design of the conveying route – initially determine the radius of curvature for the curved sections of the conveyor based on the topographical conditions of the area where the conveying equipment will be installed. 2 Selection of initial frequency for turning measures and corresponding idler roller set parameters ； 3 Calculate the tension at each point ； 4 Verify the turning restriction conditions of the curved section ； 5 Dynamic analysis of the conveyor ； 6 Add maintenance measures to ensure the turning design of the conveyor ； Composition of the turning chain conveyor: This machine is a mechanical device that uses motor control to transport materials in a continuous or uninterrupted manner. The main components of this machine include: conveyor chain plates, tensioning equipment, frame, sprockets, transmission equipment, as well as drive shafts and driven shafts. This conveyor can place the materials required in the production line on a fixed conveyor track, with the initial material feeding point serving as the starting point and the material unloading point as the ending point; thus forming a complete conveying process along the entire conveyor track from start to finish. This machine can transport a variety of materials, capable of handling both bulk materials and finished items. In addition to performing standard material transportation, the turning chain conveyor can also meet the requirements of various process steps in industrial production, thus creating a rhythmic assembly-line transportation system. The turning chain conveyor is very convenient to use; it can be employed for horizontal or inclined transportation, and changing its direction helps save labor.
