For the practical application of the vertical double-belt conveyor, it is most important to know how highit can convey material and how wide the belts must be. In this investigation, the maximum tension of the belts withvarious width is calculated based on the theory of similarity and the experimental data reported previously. The comparison of thecalculated values with the permissible belt tension makes it possible to determine the maximum height of conveyance for each beltwidth.
The main results are as follows;
1) For the same belt width, the maximum height of conveyance decreases with the increase of the sectionalarea of the load.
2) For the same belt width, the maximum height of conveyance is smaller for sand conveyance than for coal.
3) For the same height of conveyance, a smaller amount of conveyance permits the use of a little narrowerbelt, but not much.
4) The vertical double-belt conveyor can be applied more advantageously to the conveyance with a largeamount and small height than to the conveyance with a small amount and large height.
