The present invention relates to an anti-skid speed measurement and material flow detection device for a belt conveyor, include a base symmetrically arranged on the intermediate frame of the belt conveyor and arranged between two groups of slotted roller supports, sliding supports arranged on the base, a speed measurement roller and a sensor arranged on the two groups of sliding supports, and a control system connected with the sensor, a speed measurement disk is sleeved on an end face of one end of a barrel of the speed measurement roller, a circular hole is formed on the circumference of the speed measurement disk, the circular hole is arranged corresponding to the position of the senso. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the advantages of dramatically reduced production cost and maintenance cost, simple structure and high reliability.
MULTI-PIECE CONVEYOR COMPONENT INCLUDING HYGIENIC CONNECTION
A multi-piece component for a conveyor comprises a first section and a second section that mates with the first section around a shaft using a hygienic fastener to form a complete module. The hygienic fastener seals an interface between the fastener and the first section and between the first section and the second section. Chamfers facilitate positioning of the multi-piece component on a shaft.
Pulley wear sensor system and method
A drive pulley for a continuous conveyor includes an inner drum and a traction drum disposed along an outer peripheral surface of the inner drum. The traction drum has a thickness in a radial direction relative to the axle that is subject to wear during driving contact between the traction drum and a conveyor belt. At least one sensor is embedded in the traction drum. The at least one sensor has an outer wear surface that coincides with an outer surface of the traction drum. The at least one sensor is configured to wear such that the outer wear surface of the at least one sensor is adapted to wear at a same rate as the outer surface of the traction drum. The at least one sensor is configured to generate a wear signal that is indicative of wear of the traction drum.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CONVEYING CONTAINERS IN A SUSPENDED POSITION
The invention relates to a method for conveying in translation, in a transport zone, glass containers (2) held in a suspended position between two slide rails on which slides a counter-ring (7) arranged on each container which has a ring surface (8) defining the opening of the container, the method consisting of ensuring the movement in translation of the containers (2) by a bearing surface (18a) of at least one belt (18) driven in translation and exerting mechanical pressure on each ring surface (8) of the containers (2) to create a bond by adherence between each ring surface (8) of the containers and the bearing surface (18a) of the belt.
Method for wear detection, and conveying system with wear detection
A method for wear detection during the operation of a conveying system having a closed circulating path, a pick-up which is attached to at least one running gear and which makes contact with a surface of a rail in the case of wear of the wheel and/or the rail, includes using a sensor coupled to the pick-up to register vibrations produced by the contact. The vibrations are transmitted wirelessly to a background system and are evaluated. The method and a conveying system allow wear detection, in particular in the case of closed conveying systems, and considerably reduce maintenance complexity.
