[0019] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0020] Example 1: Reference Figures 1 - 3 A roller frame relates to the technical field of tail rollers. The roller frame is mainly composed of a tail end frame 1 and a tail roller 2. A roller shaft 3 is fixed at both ends of the tail roller 2. A plurality of tail roller frames are fixed to the top of the tail end frame 1 by bolts. These tail roller frames are used to support and accommodate the tail roller 2. Specifically, each tail roller frame is composed of two roller frames 4. The tops of the two roller frames 4 are provided with placement grooves 5, and the ends of the two roller shafts 3 away from the tail roller 2 respectively penetrate the corresponding placement grooves 5.

[0021] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to achieve stable rotation of the roller shaft 3 in the placement groove 5, two sets of limiting structures are provided. Each set of limiting structures includes a first semicircular bearing 6 fixedly embedded in the inner wall of the bottom of the placement groove 5, and a pressing block 8 slidably fitted in the placement groove 5. The pressing block 8 is detachably fixedly connected to the roller frame 4 by bolts, and a second semicircular bearing 7 is fixed at the bottom thereof. When the pressing block 8 is inserted into the placement groove 5 and fixed by bolts, the first semicircular bearing 6 and the second semicircular bearing 7 cooperate to clamp the roller shaft 3, thereby increasing the stability of the rotation of the roller shaft 3.

[0022] Reference Figure 2 and Figures 3 - 6, In addition, to further define the drum shaft 3, two sets of fixing structures are provided. Each set of fixing structures includes an outer sleeve 9 arranged on the side of the drum frame 4 away from the tail drum 2. A plurality of connecting plates 10 are welded to the outer wall of the outer sleeve 9, and these connecting plates 10 are detachably and fixedly connected to the drum frame 4 by bolts. The inner wall of the outer sleeve 9 on the side away from the tail drum 2 is rotatably connected to an inner sleeve 12. A ball bearing 11 is provided on the outer wall of the inner sleeve 12. The inner ring of the ball bearing 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the inner sleeve 12, and the outer ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer sleeve 9. A first circular groove 17 is provided on the side of the outer sleeve 9 close to the tail drum 2. An end cover 15 is slidably fitted in the first circular groove 17. The end cover 15 is located between the inner sleeve 12 and the drum frame 4 and is used to enclose the inner sleeve 12 and the outer sleeve 9. One end of the drum shaft 3 away from the tail drum 2 penetrates through the end cover 15 and slidably extends into the inner sleeve 12. To facilitate lubrication, an oil inlet 28 for injecting lubricating oil is also provided at the top of the outer sleeve 9.

[0023] Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 7 , a first circular groove 17 is provided inside the outer sleeve 9. A plurality of limiting grooves 18 are designed in the first circular groove 17, and these limiting grooves 18 are distributed along the axial direction of the first circular groove 17. At the same time, a plurality of limiting blocks 19 are fixed on the outer wall of the end cover 15, and these limiting blocks 19 are slidably fitted with the limiting grooves 18. When the end cover 15 is inserted into the first circular groove 17, the limiting blocks 19 slide along the limiting grooves 18, so that the relative position between the end cover 15 and the outer sleeve 9 can be defined, preventing the end cover 15 from rotating or moving randomly in the first circular groove 17.

[0024] Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , further, a key block 14 is fixed on the inner wall of the inner sleeve 12, and a key groove 13 is provided on the outer wall of the drum shaft 3. The key block 14 is slidably fitted with the key groove 13. This structure enables the drum shaft 3 to drive the inner sleeve 12 and the tail drum 2 fixedly connected thereto to rotate, and at the same time increases the rotational stability of the drum shaft 3.

[0025] Referring to Figures 5 - 7 , to ensure the sealing performance between the end cover 15 and the inner sleeve 12 and the outer sleeve 9, a sealing structure is also provided. The sealing structure includes a plurality of trapezoidal grooves 20 provided on the outer wall of the end cover 15. These trapezoidal grooves 20 are designed to cooperate with the pin rods 22 to drive the movement of the end cover 15. Sliding grooves 21 communicating with the first circular groove 17 are provided inside the outer sleeve 9, and these sliding grooves 21 correspond to the positions of the trapezoidal grooves 20. A pin rod 22 is slidably connected in the sliding grooves 21. The bottom end of the pin rod 22 is designed to be arc-shaped, such a design enables the pin rod 22 to smoothly enter the trapezoidal grooves 20 and cooperate with the inclined surfaces of the trapezoidal grooves 20, thereby driving the end cover 15 to move towards the inner sleeve 12.

[0026] Referring toFigure 7 , a threaded rod 23 is fixed to one end of the pin rod 22 away from the end cover 15, and one end of these threaded rods 23 slides and extends to the outside of the outer sleeve 9. On the outer wall of the threaded rod 23, we threadedly sleeved nuts 24, and these nuts 24 rotate on the outer wall of the outer sleeve 9. In order to synchronously drive the rotation of multiple nuts 24, we fixedly sleeved bevel gears 25 on the outer walls of the nuts 24, and rotatably sleeved a bevel gear ring 26 on the outer wall of the outer sleeve 9. The bevel gear ring 26 meshes with multiple bevel gears 25, thus achieving the effect of synchronous drive.

[0027] Refer to Figure 7 , in addition, we also provided a rotating ring 27, and one side of it close to the threaded rod 23 is fixedly connected to the bevel gear ring 26. Multiple shifting rods 51 are fixed to the side of the rotating ring 27 away from the bevel gear ring 26, and these shifting rods 51 are used to drive the rotation of the rotating ring 27.

[0028] Specifically, when it is necessary to drive the end cover 15 to move, we only need to drive the rotating ring 27 and the bevel gear ring 26 to rotate through the shifting rod 51, and the bevel gear ring 26 then drives the nut 24 to rotate through the bevel gear 25. The rotation of the nut 24 will drive the threaded rod 23 and the pin rod 22 to move downward, and the pin rod 22 extends from the sliding groove 21 into the trapezoidal groove 20 and cooperates with the inclined surface of the trapezoidal groove 20, thereby driving the end cover 15 to move in the direction of the inner sleeve 12. During the movement, the sealing ring 16 can increase the sealing performance between the end cover 15 and the inner sleeve 12 and the outer sleeve 9.

[0029] Refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , in the design of the end cover 15, the sealing performance between the end cover 15 and the inner sleeve 12 and the first circular groove 17 is also considered. Therefore, a sealing ring 16 is fixed to one side of the end cover 15 close to the inner sleeve 12. The presence of the sealing ring 16 can increase the sealing performance between the end cover 15 and the inner sleeve 12 and the first circular groove 17, preventing dust or moisture from entering the interior and affecting the normal operation of the tail drum 2.

[0030] Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9, the tail roller frame of the self - moving tail also includes a rotating column 29 that rotates between two roller frames 4. A cleaning brush 30 for cleaning the surface of the tail roller 2 is fixed on one side of the rotating column 29, and a small camera 34 for inspecting the surface of the tail roller 2 is provided on the side far from the cleaning brush 30. In order to facilitate the small camera 34 to comprehensively inspect the surface of the tail roller 2, an inspection structure is also set up. The inspection structure includes a reciprocating lead screw 32 that is rotatably connected between two bases 31 on the side of the rotating column 29 close to the tail roller 2. A moving block 33 that is thread - sleeved on the outer wall of the reciprocating lead screw 32 and slidably connected to the outer wall of the rotating column 29 is provided, and the small camera 34 is fixed at one end of the moving block 33 far from the rotating column 29. The cooperation between the moving block 33 and the reciprocating lead screw 32 can drive the small camera 34 to move reciprocally.

[0031] Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , in addition, we also set up a moving frame 35. It is slidably connected to the side of the rotating column 29 close to the tail roller 2, and one end of the reciprocating lead screw 32 penetrates through the moving frame 35. On one side of the moving frame 35, a worm gear 38 is rotatably connected, and it is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the reciprocating lead screw 32 through a chute and a slider. On the side of the moving frame 35 close to the worm gear 38, a worm 36 is rotatably connected through a substrate, and the worm 36 meshes with the worm gear 38. A rubber wheel 37 is fixed at one end of the worm 36, and the rubber wheel 37 cooperates with one end of the tail roller 2.

[0032] Specifically, when the tail roller 2 rotates, the frictional force between the rubber wheel 37 and the end face of the tail roller 2 will drive the rubber wheel 37 to rotate, and then drive the worm 36 to rotate. The cooperation between the worm 36 and the worm gear 38 will drive the reciprocating lead screw 32 to rotate, thereby driving the moving block 33 and the small camera 34 to move reciprocally in a straight line to comprehensively inspect the outer wall of the tail roller 2.

[0033] Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , in order to adjust the positional relationship between the rubber wheel 37 and the tail roller 2, we also set up a screw 39. One end of the screw 39 thread - penetrates through the adjacent base 31, and its cooperation with the base 31 is used to synchronously drive the moving frame 35, the worm 36, and the worm gear 38 to move. An arc - shaped relief groove 40 is provided in one of the roller frames 4, and one end of the screw 39 far from the moving frame 35 penetrates through the arc - shaped relief groove 40 to provide a relief for the screw 39.

[0034] Refer to Figure 8 and Figure 10In order to facilitate the switching of the inspection and cleaning operations of the tail drum 2, a switching structure is also provided to control the rotating column 29 to adjust the orientation of the cleaning brush 30 and the small camera 34. The switching structure includes a fixed rotating shaft 42 at one end of the rotating column 29, and one end of the rotating shaft 42 rotates and penetrates the roller frame 4 adjacent to the moving frame 35. On the side of the roller frame 4 away from the moving frame 35, we set a direction positioning groove 41, and set a block 46 in the direction positioning groove 41. The direction positioning groove 41 is used to limit the block 46.

[0035] Reference Figure 10 A second circular groove 43 is provided at one end of the rotating shaft 42 away from the rotating column 29, and a tension spring 44 is fixed on the inner wall of one side of the second circular groove 43. A sliding rod 45 fixedly connected to one end of the tension spring 44 is slidably connected in the second circular groove 43, and one end of the sliding rod 45 is fixedly connected to one side of the block 46.

[0036] Specifically, when the direction of the cleaning brush 30 needs to be switched, we only need to pull the block 46 outward to release the block 46 from the direction positioning groove 41. Then, the block 46 drives the slide bar 45 and the rotating column 29 to rotate 180°, so that the cleaning brush 30 faces the tail drum 2 and touches the outer wall of the tail drum 2. When the tail drum 2 is running, the cleaning brush 30 will clean the outer wall of the tail drum 2 to prevent the dirt on the outer wall of the tail drum 2 from causing wear to the tail drum 2.

[0037] Through the above specific implementation methods, we have realized a tail roller frame that can move the tail of the machine by itself, and its closing structure, inspection structure and switching structure can all work in the expected manner and achieve the expected effect.

[0038] Example 2: Reference Figure 11 , based on the improvement of the embodiment 1: a lifting groove 47 is provided on the side where the two roller frames 4 are close to each other. A lifting seat 48 is slidably connected in the lifting groove 47, and a lead screw 49 is also longitudinally connected in the lifting groove 47. The top thread of the lead screw 49 penetrates the lifting seat 48 and rotates to extend above the roller frame 4. In this way, by rotating the lead screw 49, the lifting seat 48 can be driven to move up and down in the lifting groove 47.

[0039] The lifting seat 48 is rotatably connected to a conical wheel 50 on one side close to the tail drum 2. When the conveyor belt driven on the surface of the tail drum 2 is offset, the lifting seat 48 can be driven to move upward by rotating the corresponding screw 49, thereby driving the conical wheel 50 to move upward. The inclined surface design of the conical wheel 50 can contact the conveyor belt and guide the conveyor belt to move toward the middle, thereby adjusting the position of the conveyor belt. In addition, an arc-shaped clearance groove 40 is also provided on the drum frame 4, and its inclined surface can also contact the conveyor belt to guide the conveyor belt to move toward the middle.

[0040] A method for using the tail roller frame of a self - moving tail end of a machine, comprising the following steps: S1. When installing the tail roller 2 and the roller shaft 3 on the roller frame 4, place the two ends of the roller shaft 3 from top to bottom in the two placement grooves 5, then insert the pressing block 8 into the placement groove 5, and fix the pressing block 8 to the roller frame 4 through bolts. The first semi - circular bearing 6 and the second semi - circular bearing 7 cooperate to initially clamp the roller shaft 3 to ensure the stability of the rotation of the roller shaft 3 in the later stage; S2. Sleeve the end cover 15, the inner sleeve 12, and the outer sleeve 9 onto the outer wall of the roller shaft 3 in sequence from one end of the roller shaft 3. The cooperation between the limit groove 18 and the limit block 19 can limit the positions of the outer sleeve 9 and the end cover 15, and ensure that the sliding groove 21 is aligned with the trapezoidal groove 20. Then, fix the outer sleeve 9 to one side of the roller frame 4 through bolts. When it is necessary to close the outer sleeve 9 with the end cover 15, drive the rotating ring 27 and the bevel gear ring 26 to rotate through the lever 51. The bevel gear ring 26 drives the nut 24 to rotate through the bevel gear 25. The nut 24 drives the threaded rod 23 and the pin rod 22 to move downward. The pin rod 22 extends from the sliding groove 21 into the trapezoidal groove 20, and the bottom end of the pin rod 22 is arc - shaped. At this time, the bottom end of the pin rod 22 cooperates with the inclined surface of the trapezoidal groove 20 to drive the end cover 15 to move towards the inner sleeve 12. When moving, the sealing ring 16 can increase the sealing performance between the end cover 15, the inner sleeve 12, and the outer sleeve 9. Finally, inject lubricating oil into the outer sleeve 9 through the oil inlet 28. Conversely, the tail roller 2 and the roller shaft 3 can be removed from the roller frame 4 and the tail end frame 1; S3. When the tail roller 2 and the roller shaft 3 are running to convey minerals, it is necessary to inspect the surface layer of the tail roller 2. The specific operation is to rotate the screw rod 39. Through the cooperation between the screw rod 39 and the base 31, drive the moving frame 35, the worm 36, and the worm gear 38 to slide as a whole until the rubber wheel 37 is in close contact with the side end of the tail roller 2. Drive the worm 36 to rotate through the friction between the tail roller 2 and the rubber wheel 37. The worm 36 and the worm gear 38 cooperate to drive the reciprocating screw rod 32 to rotate. The reciprocating screw rod 32 drives the small camera 34 to move in a reciprocating straight line through the moving block 33, so as to comprehensively inspect the outer wall of the tail roller 2, and the minerals can continue to be conveyed during the inspection; S4. When there are sundries attached to the outer wall of the tail roller 2 and need to be cleaned, pull the square block 46 outward to release the clamping between the square block 46 and the direction positioning groove 41. Then, drive the slide bar 45 and the rotating column 29 to rotate 180° through the square block 46, so that the cleaning brush 30 faces the tail roller 2 and touches the outer wall of the tail roller 2. When the tail roller 2 is running, clean the outer wall of the tail roller 2 through the cleaning brush 30 to avoid the dirt on the outer wall of the tail roller 2 from wearing the tail roller 2; S5. When the conveyor belt driven by the surface of the tail roller 2 is offset during the operation of the tail roller 2, by rotating the corresponding lead screw 49, the lead screw 49 drives the conical wheel 50 to move upward through the lifting seat 48, and the inclined surface of the conical wheel 50 contacts the conveyor belt to guide the conveyor belt to move towards the middle, so as to adjust the position of the conveyor belt.

[0041] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principle and wiring method of the small camera 34 are common knowledge, and they all belong to conventional means or well-known common sense, so they will not be elaborated here. Those skilled in the art can make any selection according to their needs or convenience.

[0042] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
