This paper presents measured vibration magnitudes on the trough surface and on the frame of a laboratory model of a vibrating conveyor, detected by acceleration sensors. The vibration source is a DC asynchronous vibration motor with two discs with un...
This study investigates noise detection and damping-based noise mitigation strategies for cavity structures, with a specific focus on addressing noise issues in the conveyor trough of combine harvesters. Despite its practical significance, research o...
The noise generated by combine harvesters during operation has drawn growing attention, particularly that of the conveying trough shell, whose noise generation mechanism remains unclear. This study investigated the vibration radiation noise character...
Excessive swing of the cantilevered conveyor trough is a key issue restricting the working efficiency and operational stability of combine harvesters. To suppress its swing, this study established a dynamic model of the conveyor trough to reveal the...
As a critical component of scraper conveyors, the middle trough operates under harsh conditions for extended periods, making it prone to failure and thus reducing the overall service life of the equipment. To address this issue and extend its service...
Suspended conveyor belts are widely used in mining, including in systems with non-contact support such as magnetically suspended conveyors, where the maximum admissible linear mass of the loaded belt determines the required supporting forces. This pa...
The paper analyzes the transport capabilities of energy-efficient resonant conveyors, with a particular emphasis on their dosing capabilities. They are driven by an additional mass—acting as a resonator—using a relatively small vibrator w...
Rice combine harvester conveyor troughs and their bolted connections are susceptible to vibration-induced failure due to operational and environmental excitations. Addressing the challenge of predicting the state of the combine harvester’s conv...
Breaks in the so-called “continuous” (unspliced) belt sections, and not in the spliced areas, are infrequent but do happen in practice. This article presents some aspects, which may account for such breaks in conveyor belts. It indicates the so-calle...
The paper presents a methodology for determining the volume of a batch of conveyed material located before a transverse partition of a certain height and the distance over which the batch of material extends on the working surface of the conveyor bel...
As electricity prices continue to rise, the increasing need for energy management requires better understanding of models for energy-consuming applications, such as conveyor belts. Conveyor belts are used in a wide range of industries, including powe...
The deviation of conveyor belts is a key factor that restricts material conveying efficiency of horizontal curves. An evaluation system of the deviation state of curve conveyor belt based on the ARIMA–LSTM combined prediction model is proposed...
The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River (MLYR) frequently experience extreme precipitation events (EPEs) during June and July, the so-called Meiyu season. This study investigated EPEs in the MLYR during Meiyu seasons over 1961–2022, u...
Longwall shearers operating in the underground mine workings move along the longwall face along the conveyor troughs. The haulage system, which is made up of two kinematic pairs in the form of track wheels installed in shearer movers, cooperating wit...
To address the issue of the single-crop adaptability of current head-forming leafy vegetable harvesters in China—which limits their ability to harvest multiple vegetable varieties—a universal cabbage–Chinese cabbage harvesting platf...
In contemporary bulk material transportation systems, closed screw conveyors have become prevalent. These conveyors, enclosed within troughs or cylindrical bodies, effectively mitigate environmental contamination and material toxicity during transit....
Pipe conveyors provide an environmentally friendly alternative to open-troughed bulk solids conveyance, particularly for long or complex routing applications. However, the sustainability of this technology is compromised by unstable operations. Compl...
Pipe conveyors provide sustainable solutions for environmentally sensitive or topographically complex powdered and bulk-solid handling processes; however, belt rotation is among the most critical failure modes of these equipment, influencing engineer...
An extreme snowstorm event that occurred over Heilongjiang and Jilin Provinces on 24–26 November 2013 was related to a cyclone characterized by a back-bent occluded front structure. This study investigates the structure of the back-bent occlude...
To solve the problems of low efficiency, poor uniformity and high labor intensity in the manual distribution of rehydrated pellet feed for young silkworms, a distributing machine for silkworm rehydrated pellet feed was developed. According to the fee...
Complex mechanical systems, such as agricultural combine harvesters, are subjected to dynamic excitations from multiple coupled sources, compromising structural integrity and operational reliability. Disentangling these vibrations to identify dominan...
Tropical cyclone (TC) genesis in the Caribbean (July–October) is examined using composites of 44 storms (1979–2025) from model-assimilated in situ and satellite observations. Results identify how the atmospheric circulation over the East...
