Description
1 TARIFF A GROUND CONVEYOR BELT MAINTENANCE DEVICE Technical Area 5 This invention is used in hybrid vehicles in the vehicle manufacturing process in the automotive industry. the control and maintenance operations of the conveyor belts without emptying the production line It relates to a ground belt maintenance apparatus that enables this to be carried out. Previous Technique In automotive factories, production takes place on an assembly line, and the vehicle is transported along this line. It is attempted to be completed while moving on it. Today, the automotive industry... Hybrid conveyor belts are used in their factories. These hybrid conveyor belts number 15. Complete opening once a year for inspection and maintenance of the friction plates underneath. This is necessary. This situation requires the line to be cleared for work, and therefore... This leads to high labor costs. On the other hand, production also... It is currently stopped. Therefore, control and maintenance are carried out during normal bandwidth flow. Solutions are needed to enable maintenance operations to be carried out. 20 It is heard. Chinese patent document number CN204324177U, which is included in the prior art. a conveying equipment system for the final assembly lines in assembly workshops It describes the system as consisting of double-chain modular belts and single-chain modular 25. Using a combination of belts, transport with a line pusher on the vehicle body. to eliminate the interference problem between equipment and at the end of the line It aims to carry out pit operations. Additionally, the system is clean and well-maintained. It has a simple structure, requires no maintenance, and significantly reduces maintenance costs. It reduces the workload of maintenance personnel while also reducing the number of vehicles. The conveying system consists of a series of pairs of 30 chain modular belt, primary drive device, a series of single-chain modular belts and 2 It consists of a second drive device. Double-chain modular belts are symmetrically arranged. It includes pre-installed first and second conveyor belts, while being single-chain modular. belts, a third belt located between the first and second conveyor belts It houses the conveyor belt. The length of the third conveyor belt is the same as the other two. It is shorter than the conveyor belt and has U-shaped pit control 5 at both ends. It forms stations. The system drives the first and second conveyor belts. The motors operate with drive shafts and tension wheels. Third conveyor belt. It has an independent drive mechanism. All components are connected to the conveyor belt. They are interconnected in a way that ensures the tension and proper functioning of the system. conveying equipment, a more efficient and uninterrupted conveying process on assembly lines 10 while providing, it eliminates startup problems and final assembly processes. It simplifies maintenance. At the same time, thanks to the modular structure of the system, it is easy to maintain. requirements were minimized, the workspace was kept tidy, and overall Efficiency has been increased. Brief Description of the Invention The aim of this invention is to develop control and maintenance procedures for hybrid ground belts in production. a ground belt maintenance apparatus that enables the work to be carried out without clearing the line to accomplish. 20 The other purpose of the invention is to produce without the need to empty the production line and in all... Control and maintenance operations can be performed without the need to open the production line. The goal is to develop a ground belt maintenance apparatus that enables this to be carried out. Detailed Description of the Invention This invention, "A Ground Belt Maintenance Apparatus," was created to achieve its purpose. as shown in the attached figures; 3 Figure 1. Perspective of a maintenance apparatus, the subject of the invention, on a conveyor belt. It is the appearance. Figure 2. Perspective view of a maintenance apparatus that is the subject of the invention. Figure 3. Exploded perspective view of a maintenance apparatus that is the subject of the invention. The parts shown in the figures are individually numbered, and these numbers... The equivalents are given below: 1. Maintenance tool 2. Stick 10 3rd Fixture 4. Fastener Y: Ground band Used by attaching them to conveyor belts, for belt maintenance and inspection. an invention which enables the realization of a maintenance apparatus (1), -a certain section of the friction plates located under the ground belts (Y) is open at least one rod attached to the tapes at their ends so that it leaves no trace (2), -20 located at the ends of the bar (2) and to be fixed to the ground band (Y). at least two fixtures (3) with a serrated end and - at least one connection that provides a connection between the rod (2) and the fixtures (3) It includes element (4). The subject of the invention is a maintenance apparatus (1) with a rod (2) at each end of which there are 25 It includes fixture (3). The connection between rod (2) and fixture (3) is a connection. It is realized with elements (4). The length of the rod (2) is on the ground band (Y) It varies depending on the amount of space to be left. The ends of the bar (2) It has a threaded structure so that the connecting element (4) can be fixed. 4 The subject of the invention is a fixture (3) located in a maintenance apparatus (1) with a ground band at one end. (Y) has a serrated surface so that it can be fixed by passing through and to the rod at the other end (2) It includes a connection hole for connection. The connection located on the fixture (3) passing the connecting element (4) through the hole, rod (2) and fixtures (3) The connection is provided. Fixtures (3) hybrid ground band (Y) drive and tail 5 It connects the sides and the ground band (Y) under normal operating conditions It allows for maintenance and inspections. The subject of the invention is a nut, which is a connecting element (4) in a maintenance apparatus (1). The connecting element (4) secures the threaded ends of the rod (2) to the fixture (3) with the help of washers 10 It fixes it in place. This ensures that the gap left in the ground band (Y) remains constant. This allows for the maintenance and inspection of friction plates. The subject of the invention is the maintenance apparatus (1) which moves on friction plates. A gap equal to the length of the bar (2) is left in the bands and the said gap is 15 It remains fixed thanks to the fixtures (3) and connecting elements (4). The ground strip Maintenance apparatus (1) used depending on the width of the band between the (Y) ends The number can be increased. In the preferred application, the ground band (Y) drive and Three maintenance devices (1) are used to connect the tail end. The subject of the invention is the maintenance apparatus (1) with a certain gap on the ground band (Y). By ensuring that it is left unattended, maintenance and inspections of the friction plates can be carried out without any problems. It allows for a shutdown or emptying of a production line without the need for a stoppage. This reduces the time it takes to empty and refill the line, and Costs are eliminated. 25 Around these basic concepts, the subject of the invention is “A Ground Belt Maintenance Apparatus (1)” It is possible to develop a wide variety of applications related to this, and the invention is presented here. It cannot be limited to the examples given; it is essentially as stated in the claims.
