摘要：The problem of torsion of a tubular belt on a straight route of a belt tubular conveyor (BTC) under the influence of stationary de-centering factors is considered. The effect of torques from uneven loading of the belt on the possibility of its torsion is investigated. It is shown, that the angle of rotation of the tape depends not only on the magnitude of the applied torque, but also on the design of the BTC, the geometric characteristics of the section of the tubular belt, the physical properties of its material. The effect of the coefficient of friction of the belt on the rollers on the possibility of its rotation has been investigated for various belt loading options with maximum irregularity. It is shown, that with a decrease in the load of the belt, the danger of its torsion increases. The boundaries, in which the coefficient of friction of the belt on the rollers must be found, are determined, so that the torsion of the belt does not occur.
