Theoretical and experimental research findings on batch-operation bin loader with hydraulically driven conveying element

The subject of the research is a batch-operation bin loader with hydraulically driven conveying element. The criterion of optimality is assumed and validated for mathematical modeling of the bin loader operation. The analytical model of the bin loader parameters is presented. The set of assumed constraints and assumptions in modeling is justified. The developed system of equations enables finding the allowable length of the loader bin at the blue-print stage. The article introduces the notion of a load category factor and finds its influence on the allowable length of the batch bin loader. The procedure is developed for the experimental research and processing of the obtained results for validity check and refinement of the theoretical relations within the mathematical model describing the bin loader performance. The experimental plant is designed and manufactured for testing the mathematical modeling results. The main test parameter is the actual maximum allowable length of the bin loader. The theoretical research findings on the influence exerted by variables on the target functions, as well as the calculated data on parameters of the batch-operation bin loader in present working conditions are given in graphical form. The experimental research and the data processing have refined the theoretical models by means of the obtained numerical value of the load category factor taking into account grain-size composition of load.
