System and method for monitoring the condition of a conveyor belt of a conveyor belt system and a corresponding conveyor belt system

Abstract

Shown and described is a system (1) for monitoring the condition of a conveyor belt (2) of a conveyor belt system (3), with a support shaft (4, 4′), a scraper segment (5, 5′) arranged on the support shaft (4, 4′) and connected to the support shaft (4, 4′) in a torque-transmitting manner, a stationary mounting (8) with a mounting bearing (9) in which the support shaft (4, 4′) is rotatably mounted, a movement element (11) arranged on the mounting (8) and coupled to the support shaft (4, 4′) in terms of movement, and a sensor (10) for monitoring the condition of the conveyor belt (2), wherein the scraper segment (5, 5′), the support shaft (4, 4′), the mounting (8) and the movement element (11) interact in such a way that a force acting on the scraper segment (5, 5′) is transmitted to the movement element (11), and wherein the sensor (10) is arranged and designed in such a way that the sensor (10) detects a characteristic, in particular physical, variable of the movement element (11).
