Abstract: A method for estimating the chain tension of a scraper conveyor. The method comprises: embedding strain sensors into scrapers of several scraper conveyors; measuring the tension of a weak coupling point between each scraper and a chain; performing data signal conversion on a collected sensor signal by means of an A/D conversion unit, and transmitting the signal to a data control centre by means of a wireless sending module; the data control centre performing further processing based on tension data information about the weak coupling point; and establishing a chain tension distribution model, thereby realizing chain tension estimation for the scraper conveyor. The method is simple, highly efficient and practicable. Through tension measurement on limited positions of the chain, tension estimation on the whole continuously moving chain is achieved. The chain of the scraper conveyor engages with a chain wheel and continuously moves on a middle groove, and the tension thereof changes in real time along with a load. The strain sensors are arranged on the scrapers for measuring the tension of the weak coupling point between each scraper and the chain. Estimation on the tension of the whole chain is achieved through tension measurement on limited positions of the chain.
