Motor Transfer Mechanism on the Side of the Belt Conveyor Examples of Miniaturization

Issue

Improving workability while reducing the protrusions on the side of the conveyor

Improving workability while reducing the protrusions on the side of the conveyor

Conventional Equipment

Three-phase induction motors are coupled and driven by a coupling mechanism (an inverter is used for speed control)

Application
Transporting loads

Conventional Problems

  • Motor, transfer mechanism, and other components protrude from the side of the conveyor, creating excess space
    (The space occupied by each conveyor is large, making it difficult to add new equipment)
  • The number of parts to be installed in the equipment is large, increasing the overall assembly labor

Solution

Brushless Motor BMU Series
with JH gearheads (right-angle gearheads)
for conveyor space saving and work time reduction

Brushless Motor BMU Series JH Gearheads

The use of JH gearheads (right-angle gearheads) in the BMU Series of compact, high power brushless motors reduces the protrusion of the motor on the side of the conveyor. In addition, the JH gearhead is a hollow hypoid, which reduces the number of parts needed to connect it to the conveyor.
This will also reduce the overall assembly labor, contributing to a reduction in work time.

Specific Application Examples

Specific Application Examples
  • Uses right-angle hollow shaft hypoid JH gearheads with high strength and high permissible torque
  • Gearheads are directly connected to the belt conveyor shaft, contributing to space saving
  • If you use a torque arm, you can fix it to the belt conveyor in one place

Reduction of the number of parts reduces the working time

By omitting the transfer mechanism, the time required for design and assembly, as well as for parts ordering and management, can be reduced.
