Conveying equipment is an important equipment for conveying bulk cargo materials in coal terminals, which has the characteristics of large volume, high efficiency, and low operating cost. The fault detection and disposal of conveying equipment during operation is an important guarantee for the normal operation of the terminal. This paper focuses on analyzing the types of faults such as conveyor belt deviation, slippage, longitudinal tearing, overload, spreading and stacking, abnormal temperature, and fire, puts forward the functional requirements of the safety intelligent inspection system of conveying equipment, and studies the composition of the safety intelligent inspection system of conveying equipment and the functions of its subsystems. The intelligent inspection system has been applied to the coal transportation system of Yulong Petrochemical Terminal to realize all-weather unmanned inspection operations during coal transportation and production operations, improve the safety management of coal transportation equipment, and strongly support the construction of intelligent port and safe port.
