Bucket elevator

Introduction
A bucket elevator, also called a grain leg, is a mechanism for hauling flowable bulk materials (most often grain or fertilizer) vertically.

Features
A bucket elevator can elevate a variety of bulk materials from light to heavy and from fine to large lumps.
This is a continuous bucket elevator.
Application
Bucket elevator is applied to convey powder, particles and lumps, such as food, coal, cement, crushed ores, and so on. It is widely used in mining, metallurgy, building materials, coal, hydropower and other industries.
Working principle
Early bucket elevators used a flat chain with small, steel buckets attached every few inches. Current construction uses a rubber belt with plastic buckets. Pulleys several feet in diameter are used at the top and bottom. The top pulley is driven by an electric motor.
