OFFICES AND FACTORY: EAST 200th ST. and ST- AVF 834 MERRICK CONVEYOR WEIGHTOMETER . I The Merrick Conveyor Weighing I Weightometer is an adaptationMaterials i of a platform scale designed forin Transit § the automatic weighing of con- ,„„ , , „„„ , i veyor handled materials while in transit. Where time as wellas accurate weight is an important factor in the load-ing, unloading or transporting of materials by con-veyors, the weightometer meets the requirements. Itrecords the weights with a guaranteed accuracy of99%, without hindering in any way the handling ofthe materials. ponent of the motion of the belt acts to turn it. As theweight increases the angle of tipping increases and thespeed at which the disc is revolving increases. A. Merrick Conveyor Weightometer Weighing Material inTransit on a Belt Conveyor. TheMerrickMethod iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiini The Merrick Weightometer isdesigned for use with any sizeor style of belt or pan will weigh successfully anymaterial which can be carriedby the illustration below is a sketch of a typicalweightometer installation on an inclined belt section of the conveyor belt is supported on a floatingplatform. This platform is hung on compound leversand balanced by an iron float in a cylinder of movement of the float is a direct measure of theweight on the conveyor belt. An integrator multipliesthis weight by the speed of the conveyor. The sprocketchain drive to the integrator from the return belt of theconveyor is clearly shown in the illustration below.
