Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of conveyors, in particular to a steel wire rope tensioning device in a telescopic system of a telescopic mobile conveyor. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, telescopic mobile conveyors have developed rapidly. There is no perfect industry standard for such equipment in China. Such equipment is mainly used for bulk material stacking and distribution in docks, mines, material yards, etc. The characteristics of telescopic mobile conveyors are that the material throwing point can be adjusted from near to far and from low to high. With the walking of the vehicle, a larger distribution range can be achieved. It is flexible to use and has strong adaptability.

[0003] The telescopic function of the mobile truss of the telescopic mobile conveyor is one of the main functions of this type of equipment, and plays a key role in the normal operation of the equipment. The telescopic function is mainly achieved through the telescopic system, which includes: winch mechanism, wire rope I, wire rope II, pulley I, pulley II, pulley III, guide wheel and wire rope tensioning device. The telescopic system is installed between the mobile truss and the fixed truss, and the wire rope tensioning device plays a vital role in the stable operation of the telescopic system; when there is an installation deviation between the wire rope I and the wire rope II, or elastic elongation occurs during use, or one of the wire ropes is tightened and the other is too loose, there will be a displacement difference between the wire rope I and the wire rope II. When the telescopic system is telescopically converted, the mobile truss is prone to slipping and impacting the telescopic system. In severe cases, it will cause fatigue damage to the wire rope I and the wire rope II, causing safety accidents.

[0004] In addition, when the wire ropes I and II are too loose, the droop of the wire ropes will be relatively large. In serious cases, it will exceed the maximum height allowed between adjacent guide wheels, causing the wire ropes to rub against the rods at the bottom of the fixed truss, posing a safety risk. At the same time, when the wire ropes I and II are too loose, there is also a risk that the wire ropes will slip off the pulley. Therefore, it is very important to ensure that the wire ropes I and II always maintain a certain preload for the stable operation of the telescopic system. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the impact of the mobile truss on the telescopic system caused by the relaxation of the wire rope, the risk of the wire rope scratching the bottom rod of the fixed truss and the wire rope slipping off the pulley. The present invention provides a telescopic mobile conveyor wire rope tensioning device, which can simultaneously tension two wire ropes; through the action of the spring, the two wire ropes can maintain the preload required to meet the sag requirement of the wire rope within the adjustment range of the spring, thereby achieving automatic anti-loosening; when the relaxation of the wire rope exceeds the adjustment range of the spring, the spring will push the pressure rod to trigger the limit switch to feedback the control system and prompt maintenance. At this time, by checking the connection and wear of the wire rope, after confirming that the requirements are met, the stroke of the screw can be readjusted to restore the required preload of the wire rope. The structural diagram of the telescopic mobile conveyor wire rope tensioning device of the present invention is shown in Figure 5 .

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] The telescopic mobile conveyor wire rope tensioning device can simultaneously tension two wire ropes, including: a mobile truss, a fixed truss, a movable frame, a fixed frame, a pressure rod, a spring, a screw, a locking nut, a guide shaft, a guide rail, a limit switch, a fixed nut, a cylindrical pin and a safety baffle. A telescopic system is installed between the mobile truss and the fixed truss. The telescopic system includes: a hoisting mechanism, a wire rope I, a wire rope II, a pulley I, a pulley II, a pulley III, a guide wheel and a wire rope tensioning device. The pulley I is installed on the movable frame, and the wire rope I is wound around the pulley I. The movable frame is installed with a guide rail, and the guide rail is welded to the mobile truss. The movable frame can slide in the direction of the guide rail;

[0008] The pulley II is installed on the fixed frame, the steel wire rope II is wound around the pulley II, the guide shaft is welded to the fixed frame, and the fixed frame is welded to the movable truss;

[0009] The right end of the screw is connected to the fixing nut and is fixed to prevent loosening by a cylindrical pin. The fixing nut is hinged to the movable frame. The left end of the screw passes through the fixing frame and the pressure rod and is connected to the pressure rod by a locking nut. The pressure rod compresses the spring sleeve on the guide shaft and is connected to the fixing frame.

[0010] Preferably, a limit switch is installed on the left side of the pressure rod in the extension direction of the spring on the movable truss; when the slack of the wire rope I or wire rope II exceeds the adjustment range of the spring, the spring will push the pressure rod to pop out to the left and trigger the limit switch to feedback a signal to the control system and prompt maintenance. At this time, by checking the connection and wear of the wire rope, and after confirming that the requirements are met, adjust the locking nut to readjust the stroke of the screw so that the wire rope can restore the required preload.

[0011] Preferably, the safety baffle is arranged at the lower part of the movable frame, and in the case of failure of the screw rod, the movable frame will be stuck in the frame of the bottom surface of the movable truss and will not be pulled out.

[0012] Preferably, the hoisting mechanism adopts a single drum and double rope output structure.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] (1) The present invention can tension two steel wire ropes at the same time. Through the action of the spring, the two steel wire ropes can maintain the preload force required to meet the sag requirement of the steel wire rope within the adjustment range of the spring, thereby realizing automatic anti-loosening. When the slack of the steel wire rope exceeds the adjustment range of the spring, the spring will push the pressure rod to trigger the limit switch to feedback a signal to the control system and prompt maintenance. At this time, by checking the connection and wear of the steel wire rope, after confirming that the requirements are met, the stroke of the screw rod can be readjusted to restore the required preload force of the steel wire rope.

[0015] (2) When the slack of the wire rope I or II exceeds the adjustment range of the spring, the spring will push the pressure rod to pop out to the left and trigger the limit switch to feedback a signal to the control system and prompt maintenance. At this time, by checking the connection and wear of the wire rope, after confirming that the requirements are met, adjust the locking nut to readjust the stroke of the screw so that the wire rope can restore the required preload.
