FABRICATION OF CONVEYER BELT USING GENEVA MECHANISM

Abstract

This is the new innovative concept mainly used for industries. It is simple in construction and the working process is easy. In industries, it is very necessary to move the components from one area to other in a rectangular basis. It is necessary to minimize the workers involved in it. We have designed conveyor with Geneva drive which is very used for material information from one place to another. Main components used in this project are motor, belt, roller, bearing and Geneva wheel. In our project we are using Geneva conveyor for material handling industries. It consists of motor, rollers, belt and Geneva mechanism. Two rollers are mounted according to the required distance the belt is mounted on the rollers on which the materials are placed. The rollers shaft is coupled with Geneva drive. The Geneva drives shaft is coupled with the motor shaft hence when power is supplied to the motor rollers rotate with the certain time delay according to the Geneva drive and the belt moves along the rollers. Thus material handling is carried out. With the help of Geneva drive the time delay can be achieved which avoids the use of stepper motor thus it reduces the cost involved.
