Vibratory Feeder Spring Installation

Posted in: , on 20. Jun. 2013 - 12:03

As I know only compression springs applied for vibrating feeders and screens.

Recently I have seen a model of a feeder in Internet which include springs on top of feeder as attached file.

As the spring should support feeder and it should be in compression mode, I think this installation can not be true, isn't it?

It is not shown correctly but in this case the springs are suspended in "lanterns" and they work in compression.

yes, I know the suspended feeder as below photo.

However in the hanged or suspended feeders, you can use only one spring in each corner, is n't it?

No

You can install as many springs as you want - either intermediate bracket or redesign a lantern to take several springs.

the answer is no but can't see the problem - the lantern/springs arrangement will be heavy.
