I-conveyor umshini othutha impahla eningi noma enephakheji eyodwa ukusuka endaweni yokulayisha ukuya endaweni yokulayisha ngokulinganayo ngomzila othile ngendlela eqhubekayo. Uma kuqhathaniswa nemishini yokuphakamisa, izimpahla ezidluliswayo zihanjiswa ngokuqhubekayo ngomzila othile lapho zisebenza; ukulayishwa nokulayishwa kwezingxenye zokusebenza kwenziwa ngesikhathi sokunyakaza, ngaphandle kokuma, futhi kuncane ukuqala nokubhuleka; izimpahla eziningi ezizothuthwa zisatshalaliswa ezingxenyeni ezithwala imithwalo ngendlela eqhubekayo, futhi impahla yengxenye edlulisiwe nayo ihanjiswa ngendlela eqhubekayo ngendlela ethile.

Njengoba ama-conveyors angaqhubeka nokuthutha inani elikhulu lezimpahla endaweni eyodwa, izindleko zokuphatha ziphansi kakhulu, isikhathi sokuphatha sinembe kakhulu, futhi ukuhamba kwezimpahla kuzinzile, zisetshenziswa kakhulu ezinhlelweni zesimanje ze-logistics. Ngokombono wenani elikhulu lezindawo zokugcina izinto ezizenzakalelayo, izikhungo zokusabalalisa izinto, namayadi amakhulu ezimpahla ekhaya naphesheya, iningi lemishini yabo, ngaphandle kwemishini yokuphakamisa, iyizinhlelo eziqhubekayo zokudlulisa nokuphatha, njengezinhlelo zokudlulisa impahla ngaphakathi nangaphandle, ukuhlunga okuzenzakalelayo izinhlelo zokudlulisa, njll. ikhompuyutha ephakathi, eyenza isethi ephelele yezinhlelo eziyinkimbinkimbi neziphelele zokuthutha kanye nokuphatha impahla. Inani elikhulu lezimpahla noma izinto ezingenayo neziphumayo endaweni yokugcina izimpahla, ukulayisha nokuthulula, ukuhlunga, ukuhlunga, ukuhlonza, kanye nokulinganisa konke kuqedwa ngohlelo lokudlulisa. Ezinhlelweni zesimanje zokuphatha impahla, abathuthi badlala indima ebalulekile.

Isihambisi sinezici ezilandelayo.

①Ingasebenzisa isivinini esihambayo esiphezulu kanye nesivinini esizinzile.

②Ukukhiqiza okuphezulu.

③Ngaphansi kokukhiqiza okufanayo, inesisindo esincane, isayizi encane, izindleko eziphansi, namandla aphansi okushayela.

④Umthwalo ezingxenyeni zemishini yokudlulisela uphansi futhi umthelela mncane.

⑤Isakhiwo esicwebezelayo, kulula ukusikhiqiza nokuyinakekela.

⑥Isenzo esinqunyiwe solayini wokudlulisa impahla sisodwa, futhi kulula ukubona ukulawula okuzenzakalelayo.

⑦Umthwalo ufana ngesikhathi sokusebenza, futhi amandla asetshenzisiwe acishe angashintshiwe.

⑧Ingathuthwa kuphela ngomzila othile, futhi imodeli ngayinye ingasetshenziselwa uhlobo oluthile lwempahla kuphela. Ngokuvamile ayifanele ukuthutha izinto ezingazodwa ezinesisindo esisindayo, futhi ukuguquguquka okuhlukahlukene akukuhle.

⑨Amaconveyor amaningi aqhubekayo awakwazi ukucosha izimpahla ngokwawo, ngakho imishini ethile yokudla iyadingeka.

Ukuhlukaniswa kwama-conveyors.

Ngokwezindlela ezihlukene zokufaka, ama-conveyor angahlukaniswa abe izigaba ezimbili: ama-conveyors angashintshi kanye nama-mobile conveyors. Amaconveyor angaguquki abhekisela kuwo wonke umshini ofakwe endaweni eyodwa futhi ongasakwazi ukususwa. Isetshenziswa kakhulu ezikhathini ezihleliwe zokudlulisa, njengamadokodo akhethekile, indawo yokugcina impahla ehambayo, ukudlulisa phakathi kwezinqubo zokukhiqiza zasefekthri, ukwamukela izinto zokusetshenziswa, kanye nokukhipha imikhiqizo eqediwe. Inezici zevolumu enkulu yokudlulisa, ukusetshenziswa kwamandla okuphansi kweyunithi nokusebenza kahle okuphezulu. I-conveyor engumakhalekhukhwini isho ukuthi yonke into ifakwe emasondweni futhi inganyakaziswa. Inezici zokuhamba okuphezulu, izinga eliphezulu lokusetshenziswa, futhi ingahlela imisebenzi yokudlulisa ngesikhathi ukuze ihlangabezane nezidingo zokulayisha nokuthulula. Lolu hlobo lwemishini lunomthamo ophansi wokudlulisa kanye nebanga elifushane lokudlulisa, futhi lufanele izindawo zokugcina izimpahla ezincane neziphakathi nendawo.

Ngokuya ngezici ezihlukene zesakhiwo, ama-conveyor angahlukaniswa abe ama-conveyor anezingxenye zokudonsa eziguquguqukayo kanye nama-conveyor ngaphandle kwezingxenye zokudonsa eziguquguqukayo. Isici sokusebenza sesidlulisi sengxenye eguquguqukayo siwukuthi impahla noma izimpahla zihanjiswa ngendlela ethile ngokunyakaza okuqhubekayo kwengxenye yokudonsa. Ingxenye yokudonsa iwuhlelo oluvaliwe lokuzungeza okuphindaphindiwe. Ngokuvamile, ingxenye eyodwa ithutha izimpahla kanti enye ingxenye ye-traction iyabuya. Izihambisi zebhande elivamile, izihambisi ze-slat chain, amakheshi ebhakede, amaconveyor okuphakamisa aqondile, njll. Isici sokusebenza sengxenye engaguquguquki iwukusebenzisa ukunyakaza okuzungezisayo noma ukudlidliza kwengxenye yokusebenza ukuze uhambise izimpahla ngendlela ethile. Ingxenye yayo yokudlulisa ayinalo ifomu eliphindaphindayo. Izihambisi zomoya ezijwayelekile zihlanganisa amaconveyors womoya, ama-screw conveyors, ama-vibrating conveyors, njll.

Ngokwezinhlobo ezahlukene zamandla ezimpahla ezithuthiwe, abathumeli bangahlukaniswa ngezigaba eziningana, njengemishini, inertial, pneumatic, hydraulic, njll.; ngokwemvelo yezimpahla, amaconveyor angahlukaniswa abe amaconveyor aqhubekayo kanye namaconveyors aphakathi nendawo. Amaconveyor aqhubekayo asetshenziswa kakhulu ekulayisheni nokwethula impahla eyinqwaba. Izithuthi ezihamba ngezikhathi ezithile zisetshenziselwa kakhulu ukuthutha impahla ehlanganisiwe (okungukuthi, izimpahla ezipakishiwe), ngakho zibuye zibizwe ngokuthi amayunithi okuthutha umthwalo.
