AB - Abstract Since indentation rolling resistance accounts for the major part of total resistance of belt conveyor, it is important to compute it using a proper method, during the design and application study of the belt conveyor. Firstly, an approximate formula for computing the indentation rolling resistance is offered. In this formula, a one-dimensional Winkler foundation and a three-parameter viscoelastic Maxwell solid model of the belt backing material are used to determine the resistance to motion of a conveyor belt over idlers. The velocity of belt is an important operating parameter in the working conditions of the belt conveyor. What’s more, a set of experimental apparatus, which can measure the value of indentation rolling resistance is designed. Author obtains a series of measured data under the different belt speeds with the help of experimental apparatus. Finally, a computation example, that is provided for a typical rubber compound backing material, shows the comparison between the measured and the theoretical results, which offers the influence of speed on the rolling resistance.
