A long-distance curved belt conveyor is a special type of belt conveyor that utilizes a flat conveyor belt to achieve horizontal turning. It can also perform vertical convex and concave arc curves in conjunction with horizontal turns, forming spatial curves. This is achieved by elevating the inner curve of the conveyor belt, which generates an outward centrifugal force during operation to counteract the centripetal resultant force of belt tension caused by the turn, ensuring reliable belt operation around curves. By adopting a curved routing path to bypass obstacles or unfavorable sections, the need for intermediate transfer stations is reduced or eliminated, thereby decreasing the number of equipment units, making the system's power supply and control more centralized and convenient, and enhancing the reliability of safe system operation. Professional calculation software is used to determine the tensile forces acting on the belt at each turn. Based on these parameters, the inclination angles of the idler frames and idler rollers at each turn and their adjacent sections are calculated, ensuring reliable belt operation at the curves.
