DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] The present invention provides a belt conveyor belt replacement method, comprising the following steps:

[0032] First, set up an old belt winding rack 1 and a new belt winding rack 11, and wind the new belt on the new belt winding rack 11, then place the old belt winding rack 1 and the new belt winding rack 11 on one side of the tail wheel of the belt conveyor in turn, and keep the two aligned with the center line of the belt movement direction to control the subsequent belts to be accurately docked; then cut off the old belt from the tail wheel of the belt conveyor, and fix one end of it to the old belt winding rack 1, and connect the other end to the end of the new belt, and the connection method is the conventional belt connection technology, that is, the hot melt hot pressing connection process, or a special belt buckle connection, etc. After the connection is completed, it is best to keep the belt as a whole in a taut state; then release the transmission connection between the belt reducer and the first wheel drive roller, that is, disengage the coupling between the reducer and the first wheel drive roller, so that the first wheel drive roller can rotate freely; then set up multiple sets of power rollers 2 and place them in the middle position of the two sections of the cut belt. At the same time, an upper clamping roller 21 is arranged to cooperate with the power roller 2 to clamp the belt part located on its upper side. The upper belt end is connected to the old belt winding frame 1, so when the old belt winding frame 1 is wound, the new belt can be completely pulled out and put on the belt conveyor; finally, the power roller 2 is connected to the outside of the drive motor 23, and the drive motor 23 is started to drive the power roller 2 to rotate. When the power roller 2 rotates, it will cooperate with the upper clamping roller 21 to clamp the old belt and move, and at the same time cooperate with the winding work of the old belt winding frame 1 to guide the old belt to be stably wound onto the old belt winding frame 1. When the old belt is wound onto the old belt winding frame 1, it will drive the new belt to be unwound from the new belt winding frame 11, and gradually replace the old belt to be put on the belt conveyor, cut off the connection between the new belt and the old belt, and connect the two ends of the new belt to form a closure, thereby completing the belt replacement work in an orderly and efficient manner.

[0033] In one embodiment, a lower clamping roller 22 is further provided on the side of the power roller 2 away from the upper clamping roller 21. The upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22 cooperate with the power roller 2 to clamp the belts on both sides thereof, so that when the power roller 2 rotates, the friction force drives the belt parts on both sides to transmit synchronously, so that the part of the belt located on the belt conveyor maintains tension. This method of using the power roller 2 to cooperate with the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22 to clamp the belt from both ends and generate traction force ensures that the belt will not be offset when it moves, and the replacement process is more stable.

[0034] like Figure 1-5As shown, a belt conveyor belt replacement device adapted and designed according to the above-mentioned belt replacement method comprises two sets of fixed frames 3 arranged in parallel, one set of fixed frames 3 is provided with a mounting platform 31 for mounting a driving motor 23, and the driving motor 23 is drivingly connected to one end of the power roller 2; the two ends of the power roller 2, the upper clamping roller 21, and the lower clamping roller 22 are rotatably arranged on the two sets of fixed frames 3, wherein the fixed frames 3 are also provided with an adjustment component for adjusting the distance between the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22 relative to the power roller 2, and the required distance in the above-mentioned method is adjusted by adjusting the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22. The important structural parts are integrated into a whole, which is convenient for moving and transportation and saves time for assembly. When the device is in use, it is only necessary to pass the two ends of the old belt through the position between the power roller 2 and the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22 after the old belt is cut off, and connect them to the old belt winding frame 1 and the end of the new belt respectively, and then move the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22 through the adjustment component to cooperate with the power roller 2 on both sides of the power roller 2 to clamp the belt, and then drive the drive motor 23 to implement the winding of the old belt and the replacement of the new belt.

[0035] In one embodiment, a fixed cross plate 32 is provided on the fixed frame 3 on the side of the power roller 2 away from the mounting platform 31, and the bearing at one end of the power roller 2 away from the mounting platform 31 is provided on the fixed cross plate 32. The fixed cross plate 32 is fixed as a whole, and it is inconvenient to maintain the height of the power roller 2. The belt clamping action is implemented only by adjusting and moving the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22.

[0036] In one embodiment, the adjustment component includes two groups of movable horizontal plates 4 arranged in the fixed frame 3 and movable in upper and lower limit positions, and a bidirectional threaded screw 41 with bearings at both ends arranged on the fixed frame 3 and threadedly connected to the two groups of movable horizontal plates 4; the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22 are rotatably arranged at both ends on the movable horizontal plates 4, and the two groups of movable horizontal plates 4 move relatively synchronously on the fixed frame 3. By rotating the bidirectional threaded screw 41, the upper clamping roller 21 and the lower clamping roller 22 can be driven to synchronously approach the power roller 2 to clamp the belt.

[0037] In one embodiment, the driving motor 23 is connected to the power roller 2 through the output shaft 24, and a pulling assembly for tightening the belt portion moving toward the power roller 2 is also provided on the fixed frame 3, and the pulling assembly includes two groups of rotating shafts 5 with bearings at both ends respectively arranged on the two groups of fixed frames 3, a silicone plate 51 evenly arranged on the rotating shafts 5, and two groups of gears 52 respectively arranged on the two groups of fixed frames 3 near one end of the driving motor 23 and meshing with each other; the two groups of rotating shafts 5 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the belt portion moving toward the power roller 2; a pulley 53 is provided on one group of gears 52, and a transmission belt 54 for transmission is sleeved on the output shaft 24 and the pulley 53. When the driving motor 23 drives the power roller 2 to rotate, the belt portion clamped by the upper clamping roller 21 moves to the old belt winding frame 1 and is wound, and the bottom belt portion moves and is sleeved on the belt conveyor under the cooperation of the power roller 2 and the lower clamping roller 22. During this process, the new belt winding frame 11 is in the process of continuously unwinding the new belt , and because the power roller 2 and the lower clamping roller 22 cooperate to clamp the bottom belt part, the belt part on the belt conveyor maintains a stable tension, and then the new belt winding frame 11 does not need to be equipped with additional power to maintain the tension of its sent-out belt part, avoiding additional drive. However, in this process, when the new belt is sent into the position between the power roller 2 and the lower clamping roller 22, it may cause wrinkles on the upper part or impurities to adhere to the surface under no tension, thereby affecting the transmission of the power roller 2 to the belt as a whole, and then the output shaft 24 is used to transmit the power to the pulley 53 through the transmission belt 54, and the pulley 53 drives the rotating shaft 5 at the bottom to rotate, and the rotating shaft 5 at the upper part is driven by the meshing of the gear 52, so that the silicone plates 51 on the two sets of rotating shafts 5 will sweep in the opposite direction of the belt movement to keep the belt with partial tension before entering the lower side of the power roller 2, and at the same time, it can sweep away impurities on its surface to ensure the stability of the overall movement.

[0038] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-restrictive in all respects, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
