MAXI-LIFT ENGINEERING INFORMATION

Venting Options for Agricultural and Industrial Elevator Buckets

How to Measure an Elevator Bucket

Most manufacturers identify part sizes by molding dimensions into the bottom of the elevator bucket.

LENGTH=12 5/8” PROJECTION=8 3/4” DEPTH=8 1/4”

Lightweight, fluffy materials, those that are extremely dense or flow poorly can be difficult to handle in bucket elevators at high speeds.Because these materials tend to trap air when being handled by an elevator bucket, it is necessary to provide air relief to assist in theirfilling and discharge. Materials in this category might be various flours, meals, feed mash or screenings. As these materials enter thebucket, air is released through a series of vent holes in the bottom of the bucket allowing for a more complete fill. These vent holesalso allow air to re-enter the bucket, which facilitates full release of product into the discharge.

Generally hole diameter is equal to bolt holes drilled for attachment. In certain cases, larger diameter holes may be necessary.

When elevating powdery materials such as cement in the Tiger-Tuff, a minimum of two rows of 3/8" diameter vent holes arerecommended to help insure that the material will discharge cleanly.

Projection is measured verti-cally to the lip, as it would proj-ect from the belt or chain.

Depth is measured for theoverall side profile dimension.

#1 Vent

Same holes inbody as boltmounting holes.

#2 Vent

Twice as manyholes in body asbolt mountingholes.

#3 Vent

Two rows, orfour times asmany holes asbolt mounting.

#4 Vent

Same as #3,plus three holesin each end cap.

Custom Vent

Vented asrequired

The bucket length is measured at the backmounting surface. Lay the bucket on its backfor actual measurement dimensions.

CAPACITY CALCULATING

Calculating Bucket Elevator Capacity

STEP 1: Multiply the CAPACITY of the bucket times the NUMBER OF BUCKETS per foot (12 divided by spacing) times the NUMBER OF ROWS of buckets. This will give the capacity in cubic inches of each running foot of the belt or chain.

STEP 2: Multiply the answer times the SPEED of the belt or chain in FPM for the capacity discharged per minute.

STEP 3: Then multiply by 60 minutes to get cubic inches per hour.

CONVERT CUBIC INCHES PER HOUR AS FOLLOWS:BUSHELS: Divide by 2,150 to convert to bushels.CUBIC FEET: Divide by 1,728 to convert to cubic feet.SHORT TONS: Multiply cubic feet capacity times weight of product per cubic foot and divide by 2,000.METRIC TONS: Multiply cubic feet capacity times weight of product per cubic foot and divide by 2,204.62.

For engineering purposes, Maxi-Lift recommends using water level capacity as the basis for calculation. Actual bucket fillwill vary depending on the product and operational conditions.
