INTRODUCTION

Generally, conveying is accomplished by a combination of mechanical, inertial,
pneumatic, and gravity forces. Application of screw conveyors can be seen almost in every industry
nowadays. Conveyors utilizing primarily mechanical forces are screw, belt, and mass conveyors.
Screw conveyors are widely used for transporting and elevating particulates at controlled and
steady rates. They are used in many bulk materials applications in industries ranging from
industrial minerals, agriculture (grains), pharmaceuticals, chemicals, pigments, plastics, cement,
sand, salt and food processing.

The main reason why the screw conveyors are popular because they can be used for uniform
and continuous supply of various materials in manufacturing machinery and transport devices in
many industries as stated above. So it is a very effective way of elevating bulk materials.

Some advantages of Vertical Screw Conveyors are,
• Ideal for handling dry to semi-fluid materials
• Capacities up to 6,000 cubic feet per hour.
• Ability to elevate bulk materials up to 30-feet without use of internal bearings.
• Totally enclosed design for dust and vapor-tight requirements.


Since they operate over a wide range of speeds and angles of elevation up to the vertical. In
this mini project, we have focused on and designed a Vertical screw conveyor which is fully
enclosed.

The driving power of the loaded screw conveyor is given by,

P = PV + PN + Pst
Where, PV = required power to move the material
PN = required power to operate unloaded screw
Pst = required power for the vertical position of screw conveyor

Material travelling (PV) =

∴ using eq

2.2,
Screw Conveyor Power = PV + PN + Pst
= 0.9421 + 0.06 + 0.1819
= 1.1840 kW

Losses within the mechanical elements,

Losses due to drive pully = 3% Losses due to Bearing = 1%
Losses due to pinion pully = 3% Losses due to chain = 5%

Motor rpm = 1425 rpm

From the V-Belt drive handbook,

According to the design power and rpm of motor,
Type of belt = Type A

Service factor for drives, (page No: 3/80)
Operation hours per day = over 16 hrs.
Type of driven mechanism = Extra heavy duty
Service factor = 1.8

Figure 3.2 – Service factor for drives

From the belt ratio,
Let Pitch diameter of smaller pully (d) = 125 mm
Pitch diameter of larger pully (D) = 250 mm

Pitch length of the belt (L) calculations, (page No: 3/78)

Pitch length of the belt (L) = 2�+1.57(�+�)+

2(125+250) ≥� ≥0.7(125+250)
750 mm ≥� ≥262.5 ��
∴ Taking minimum C value for calculations,
C = 262.5 mm

Substituting for the eq

L = (2 ×262.5)+1.57(125+250)+

= 1128.6 mm
According to the standard pitch lengths, From Table3C, (page No: 3/69)

∴ Power correction factor for belt pitch length (type A) = 0.93 (page No: 3/84)

Using interpolating method,
X = 2.2

Material selection,

Pulley material - Cast Iron
Due to reduced weight and their low cost.

V- Belt material - Thermoplastic polyester elastomer, with a shore hardness 92A,
Since this is a heavy-duty mechanism, the V-belt temperature should have a vast range.
Therefore, the selected material has a temperature range of -5° to 70° C

8. BEARING SELECTION

Data:
Shaft diameter = 18 mm
Shaft speed = 178.9 rpm
Extra heavy Duty = over 16 hrs

Bearing type = Deep Groove Ball bearing

Maximum load (Fr) = 416 + 1277
= 1693 N

From bearing Handbook, (page No: 31)
Equivalent Fr for 1693 N = 2000 N
Equivalent Shaft rpm for 178.9 rpm = 200 rpm
∴ (C/P) = 2.88

L10h = (hours per day) x (weekdays) x (Weeks per year) x (No: of years)
= 16 x 6 x 25 x 2
= 4800 h
C = 4800 x 2.88
= 13824

From bearing Handbook, (page No: 119)
Equivalent Diameter for 18 mm = 20 mm
Equivalent C for 13824 = 15900
∴ D = 52 mm
B = 15 mm

∴ Shaft diameter is altered to 20 mm
