[0069] Figure 5 To include Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a non-metallic roller with an end seal assembly as shown. Figure 5As shown, the present application also provides a non-metallic roller, comprising: two end sealing assemblies as described above, a roller shaft 7 and a cylinder 1.

[0070] Two end sealing assemblies as described above; the end sealing assembly can adopt the end sealing assembly described in any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0071] The opposite ends of the roller shaft 7 are respectively connected with end sealing assemblies; the roller shaft 7 is penetrated by the end sealing assemblies, and the end sealing assemblies provide sealing function for the roller shaft 7.

[0072] The two end sealing assemblies are symmetrically arranged in the cylinder 1 , and opposite ends of the roller shaft 7 extend out from opposite ends of the cylinder 1 respectively.

[0073] Two end seal assemblies are symmetrically arranged in the cylinder 1, and the opposite ends of the roller shaft 7 are respectively penetrated through the end seal assemblies on both sides, and extend out from the opposite ends of the cylinder 1. Specifically, the second seal 8 is installed in the second seal cavity 25, the bearing 5 is connected in the bearing installation cavity 24, the first seal 3 is installed in the first seal cavity 23, the first receiving groove 32 formed between the first seal 3 and the bearing 5 is filled with a grease layer, and the second receiving groove 82 formed between the second seal 8 and the bearing 5 is filled with a grease layer. The end cover 4 is arranged in the installation cavity 21, and the roller shaft 7 enters from one side of the roller shaft hole 22, and is successively penetrated through the second seal 8, the bearing 5 and the first seal 3, and then penetrates out from the end cover 4, and the roller shaft 7 is connected to the end cover 4. When the bearing seat 2 is installed in the cylinder 1, the end cover 4 is connected to the bearing seat 2. The two bearing seats 2 are symmetrically arranged in the cylinder 1.

[0074] The above-mentioned non-metallic roller is adopted, and the non-metallic roller adopts the above-mentioned end sealing assembly. Two seals provide sealing functions for the bearing 5 from both sides thereof, respectively, to improve the overall sealing performance of the end sealing assembly, and prevent water vapor, impurities, etc. from entering the bearing 5, causing wear to the bearing 5. On this basis, a grease layer is filled between each seal and the bearing 5, and the grease layer can absorb impurities such as dust and water vapor, and prevent further diffusion into the bearing 5 cavity, effectively preventing dust and water vapor from invading the bearing 5, and further extending the service life of the bearing 5.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present application, the cylinder 1 is made of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite material or thermoplastic resin material.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present application, the bearing seat 2, the cylinder 1, and the end cover 4 are all made of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite materials. The fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite materials have the advantages of excellent mechanical properties and low density. When preparing non-metallic rollers, they can effectively reduce the energy consumption of the belt conveyor during operation. At the same time, it has the advantage of not being resistant to high temperatures, and its temperature resistance is lower than that of the belt. For example, the operating temperature of polyvinyl chloride thermoplastic polymers can reach up to 80-100°C, but the temperature of the belt conveyor during normal operation is about 60°C. When the non-metallic roller is stuck, the sliding friction between the belt and the non-metallic roller quickly generates heat, and the non-metallic roller can quickly collapse to protect the belt. Metal rollers are difficult to collapse, and their temperature resistance is much higher than that of the belt, which may cause the belt to eventually burn out. Usually the value of the belt is much higher than the value of the roller. Therefore, non-metallic rollers can not only effectively reduce operating energy consumption, but also protect the belt.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present application, the cylinder 1 and the bearing seat 2 adopt a transition or interference fit, and adhesive bonding can be added at the junction of the cylinder 1 and the bearing seat 2.

[0080] In one embodiment of the present application, the contact surfaces of the bearing seat 2 and the cylinder 1 are respectively provided with a slot and a buckle. When the bearing seat 2 is installed in the cylinder 1, the bearing seat 2 and the cylinder 1 are connected together by the slot and the buckle. The cross section of the cylinder 1 between the two bearing seats 2 is consistent in the axial direction. The cylinder 1 can be manufactured by an extrusion molding method, which is suitable for flexible manufacturing of the length direction, so that a set of molding molds can manufacture cylinders 1 and rollers of various lengths.

[0081] Optionally, the non-metallic roller further includes: two retaining rings 6, and limiting grooves are respectively provided at opposite ends of the roller shaft 7, and a retaining ring 6 is engaged and connected in each limiting groove, and the retaining ring 6 abuts against the end cover 4 of the end sealing assembly. The retaining ring 6 is sleeved on the limiting groove, and abuts against the end cover 4 through the part protruding from the limiting groove, providing a positioning function for the end cover 4. The use of the retaining ring 6 and the limiting groove can improve the connection stability of the end cover 4 and the bearing seat 2.

The end cover 4 is arranged in the installation cavity 21, the roller shaft 7 enters from one side of the roller shaft hole 22, passes through the second seal 8, the bearing 5 and the first seal 3 in sequence, and then passes through the end cover 4. When the bearing seat 2 is installed in the cylinder 1, the retaining ring 6 is installed on the roller shaft 7, the retaining ring 6 is sleeved on the limiting groove, and abuts on the end cover 4 through the part protruding from the limiting groove, the roller shaft 7 is connected to the end cover 4, so that the end cover 4 and the bearing seat 2 are connected together.

[0084] The present application also provides an assembly method of the non-metallic roller as described above, characterized in that:

[0086] (2) The cylinder 1 is sleeved on the outside of the end sealing assembly, and the opposite ends of the cylinder 1 are respectively engaged and connected with the end sealing assemblies at corresponding positions.

[0087] The non-metallic roller assembly method adopts the end seal assembly, and the two seals provide sealing for the bearing 5 from both sides, so as to improve the overall sealing performance of the end seal assembly, and prevent water vapor, impurities, etc. from entering the bearing 5 and causing wear to the bearing 5. On this basis, a grease layer is filled between each seal and the bearing 5, and the grease layer can absorb impurities such as dust and water vapor to prevent further diffusion into the bearing cavity, effectively prevent dust and water vapor from invading the bearing 5, and further extend the service life of the bearing 5.

By installing the retaining ring 6, the roller shaft 7, the end sealing assembly and the cylinder body 1 are linked together to form an integrated structure, which reduces the difficulty of assembly and improves the structural stability.

[0090] From the above description and practice, it can be known that the end seal assembly, non-metallic roller and assembly method provided by the present application have the following advantages compared with the prior art: the above end seal assembly is adopted, and two seals provide sealing functions for the bearing from both sides respectively, so as to improve the overall sealing performance of the end seal assembly, and prevent water vapor, impurities, etc. from entering the bearing and causing wear to the bearing.
