For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0024] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 The utility model is further described.

[0025] In order to solve the problems existing in the background technology, the present application proposes the following technical solution: a counting conveyor belt.

[0026] The specific technical scheme includes a support frame 1 and a pusher assembly 2. The pusher assembly 2 is arranged above the support frame 1, and is mainly used to prevent cardboard from stacking during transportation. The pusher assembly 2 includes an inverted U-shaped frame 201 fixed above the support frame 1. A mounting groove 202 is provided above the inverted U-shaped frame 201. A threaded rod 203 is rotatably installed inside the mounting groove 202. One end of the threaded rod 203 penetrates the inverted U-shaped frame 201 and extends to the outside of the inverted U-shaped frame 201. The penetration is a rotation connection. An anti-slip button is fixed to the end extending to the outside of the inverted U-shaped frame 201 to facilitate driving the threaded rod 203 to rotate. An arrow mark is marked on the side of the inverted U-shaped frame 201 where the anti-slip button is installed. The two arrows are marked with up and down respectively to indicate the direction in which the pusher plate 208 will move when the staff rotates.

[0027] The external thread of the threaded rod 203 is connected to a driving block 204, and the driving block 204 is pulled by the inner wall of the installation groove 202 and can maintain straight movement when the threaded rod 203 rotates. A push-pull rod 205 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the driving block 204. Vertical grooves 206 are opened on both sides of the inverted U-shaped frame 201. Traction rods 207 are fixed inside the two vertical grooves 206. A push plate 208 is slidably installed between the outer surfaces of the two traction rods 207. The traction rod 207 is used to stabilize the vertical lifting trajectory of the push plate 208. One end of the push-pull rod 205 is rotatably installed above the push plate 208.

[0028] A groove 3 is provided on one side of the inverted U-shaped frame 201, and an identification component 4 is provided on one side of the pushing component 2. The identification component 4 is used to help the staff quickly identify whether the adjustment position is aligned. The identification component 4 includes a scale 401 fixed inside the groove 3 and an indicator arrow 402 fixedly installed on one side of the pushing plate 208, wherein the size of the groove 3 is adapted to the scale 401, and the scale 401 is used to help the staff accurately know the distance between the pushing plate 208 and the top of the conveyor belt 603. A magnifying glass 403 is fixed to one side of the indicating arrow 402 through a fixing sleeve, and the magnifying glass 403 can help the staff see the value of the scale line pointed to by the indicating arrow 402 more clearly and quickly.

[0029] Two bearing plates 5 are fixed above the support frame 1. The bearing plates 5 are located on the inner side of the conveyor belt 603 and are attached to the inner side wall of the conveyor belt 603 to bear the gravity of the cardboard and prevent the conveyor belt 603 from being concave above when the cardboard is conveyed. A conveying assembly 6 is arranged above the support frame 1. The conveying assembly 6 is used to convey the cardboard. The conveying assembly 6 includes two rotating rollers 601 rotatably installed above the support frame 1 and a motor 602 fixed to one side of the support frame 1. The two rotating rollers 601 are respectively located at both ends of the support frame 1, and one end of the output shaft of the motor 602 is fixed to one end of one of the rotating rollers 601. A conveyor belt 603 is sleeved between the outer surfaces of the two rotating rollers 601. The motor 602 drives the rotating roller 601 connected thereto to rotate, and the rotating roller 601 drives the conveyor belt 603 to rotate under the support limit of the two rotating rollers 601. The cardboard placed on the conveyor belt 603 will move forward in the rolling direction of the conveyor belt 603.

[0030] A counting assembly 7 is provided above the support frame 1. The counting assembly 7 is located behind the pushing assembly 2. The cardboard first passes through the pushing assembly 2 and then passes through the counting assembly 7. The counting assembly 7 is used to count the number of conveyed cardboards. The counting assembly 7 includes a fixing frame 701 fixed above the support frame 1. A photoelectric counter 702 is fixed below the fixing frame 701. After the cardboard passes through the pushing assembly 2, the stacked cardboard is pushed apart, and the cardboards pass through the photoelectric counter 702 one by one for automatic counting.

[0031] In order for those skilled in the art to fully understand the technical solution, this application makes the following overall summary:

[0032] When in use, the cardboard moves on the conveyor belt 603 toward the bottom of the pushing assembly 2 along the rolling direction of the conveyor belt 603. If two or more cardboards are stacked together, they will be blocked by the pushing plate 208 when passing through the pushing plate 208, and all the cardboards stacked above the bottom cardboard will be pushed away, making it impossible for them to be conveyed forward with the bottom cardboard, until the stacked cardboards are unfolded one by one, and then pass under the pushing plate 208 in turn to reach the photoelectric counter 702 for counting, so as to prevent the stacked cardboards from affecting the accuracy of the counter counting.

[0033] For cardboards of different thicknesses, the spacing from the bottom of the push plate 208 to the top of the conveyor belt 603 needs to be adjusted to different sizes. The threaded rod 203 is rotated by turning the anti-slip button. The threaded rod 203 rotates to make the driving block 204 move along the threaded rod 203. The movement of the driving block 204 will drive the push-pull rod 205 to move with the end connected to it. When the upper end of the push-pull rod 205 moves, the whole will gradually deflect, so that the other end of the push-pull rod 205 gradually moves downward or upward during the deflection, thereby driving the push plate 208 to rise and fall along the traction rod 207, and flexibly changing the position of the push plate 208, which is suitable for cardboards of different thicknesses.

[0034] When adjusting the position of the push plate 208, as the push plate 208 rises and falls, the indicator arrow 402 and the magnifying glass 403 rise and fall together with the push plate 208. The scale line value indicated by the indicator arrow 402 is the distance between the bottom of the push plate 208 and the conveyor belt 603. The magnifying glass 403 magnifies the tiny value to more quickly know the position of the push plate 208.

[0035] The standard parts used in the utility model can be purchased from the market, and special-shaped parts can be customized according to the description in the specification and the drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt the conventional means such as mature bolts, rivets, welding, etc. in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment all adopt the conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connection adopts the conventional connection method in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The content not described in detail in this specification belongs to the prior art known to professional and technical personnel in this field.

[0036] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
