Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of conveyor belt equipment, and in particular relates to a conveyor belt anti-tearing device. Background Art
[0002] Conveyor belts, as an indispensable equipment in the daily production activities of factories and mines, undertake the important task of transporting various block or powder materials from one location to another. Figure 7 However, in actual use, since various debris are inevitably mixed in the material, when these debris descends through the chute to the conveyor belt, they may cause a series of problems due to their large size or irregular shape.
[0003] When a large object comes into contact with the conveyor belt, the conveyor belt will try to move the object forward. Since the other end of the object may come into contact with the side wall of the chute, and the other part of the object may get stuck in the chute outlet, a lever structure is formed. When the conveyor belt continues to run, this lever structure will exert a shear force on the conveyor belt, causing the conveyor belt to tear longitudinally.
[0004] Such accidents not only lead to the interruption of the production line and the decline of production efficiency, but also bring additional economic costs to repair and replace the torn conveyor belt. More importantly, if the torn belt is not discovered and handled in time, it may further damage other equipment and even cause more serious safety accidents.
[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to design a conveyor belt anti-tearing device, which can detect and take measures in time when debris contacts the conveyor belt to prevent foreign objects from damaging the conveyor belt, thereby ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the production line. Utility Model Content

[0009] Preferably, the cross-section of the trigger rod is a square structure, and the corresponding trigger rod guide groove is a square structure.
[0010] Preferably, a spring support for abutting against a reset spring is provided on the trigger rod on the abutting wheel side.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail in combination with the embodiments below. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model, and are not used to limit the utility model.
[0028] See also Figures 1 to 6 A device for preventing conveyor belts from being torn by foreign objects comprises a material guide trough 1 located above the conveyor belt, a material discharge chute 2 obliquely installed on the material blocking trough, the material discharge chute comprising a material discharge trough 2-1, an expansion trough 2-2 is provided on the conveying direction side of the belt, a movable plate 3 is movably installed between the expansion trough and the material discharge trough through a rotating shaft, a contact trigger mechanism 4 is provided in the expansion trough corresponding to the movable plate on the side plate of the expansion trough on the conveying direction side of the belt, a detection element 5 for detecting the position of the contact trigger mechanism is provided on the outer side of the expansion trough, and the detection element is electrically connected to the controller and / or alarm device of the belt conveyor motor.
[0029] The movable plate design in the above technical solution: The movable plate moves freely between the feeding trough and the expansion trough through the rotating shaft. This design can reflect the running state of the foreign body in real time. When the foreign body 7 hits the movable plate, the movable plate will shift in the conveying direction. This change can accurately reflect the existence and size of the foreign body, and provide basic data for subsequent alarm and shutdown operations. The contact trigger mechanism in the above technical solution: This mechanism converts the running state of the movable plate into an electrical signal through the direct contact between the trigger rod and the movable plate. The abutment wheel at the end of the trigger rod is in close contact with the movable plate to ensure the accurate transmission of the signal. The reset spring is used to restore the trigger rod and the movable plate to the initial state after the foreign body passes, so as to prepare for the next detection. The detection element in the above technical solution: The detection element can accurately detect the position change of the contact trigger mechanism, and then determine whether there is a foreign body hitting the movable plate. Once an abnormality is detected, it will immediately send a signal to the controller of the belt conveyor motor, trigger the alarm device and shut down, thereby avoiding the conveyor belt from being torn.
[0030] When selecting a detection element for detecting position, factors such as accuracy, response speed, stability, and applicable environment need to be considered. For the conveyor belt foreign body tear prevention device, the detection element needs to be able to accurately detect small changes in the movable plate and respond quickly.
[0031] 1. Infrared switch:
[0032] Advantages: The infrared switch is non-contact, which means it can avoid mechanical wear and potential failure points. In addition, the infrared switch has a fast reaction speed and can quickly detect the position change of the movable plate.
[0033] Disadvantages: Infrared switches can be affected by ambient light, dust, and other interference, leading to false or missed detections. In addition, they require regular calibration to ensure accuracy.
[0034] 2. Mechanical trigger switch:
[0035] Advantages: Mechanical trigger switches have a simple structure, reliable operation, and are not easily affected by environmental interference. Because they are direct contact detection, their accuracy is usually high.
[0036] Disadvantages: Mechanical trigger switches may be at risk of wear and failure, especially in high-frequency, high-load working environments. In addition, they require regular maintenance and cleaning to ensure proper operation.
[0037] Considering the working environment and requirements of the conveyor belt foreign body tearing prevention device, a mechanical trigger switch may be a more suitable choice. This is because the mechanical trigger switch has high precision, can accurately detect small changes in the movable plate, and is not easily disturbed by ambient light or dust. However, in actual applications, it is also necessary to select the most suitable detection element according to specific needs and conditions.
[0038] Preferably, the contact trigger mechanism 4 includes a trigger rod 4-1, and an abutment wheel 4-2 that abuts against the movable plate is installed at the end of the trigger rod on the movable plate side to reduce friction; the other end of the trigger rod is inserted into the trigger rod guide groove of the expansion groove, and a reset spring 4-3 is provided on the trigger rod in the expansion groove.
[0039] Preferably, the cross-section of the trigger rod is a square structure, and the corresponding trigger rod guide groove is a square structure, and the square structure has an anti-rotation constraint function.
[0040] Preferably, a spring support 4 - 4 for abutting a reset spring is provided on the trigger rod on the abutment wheel side to ensure the stability of the spring abutment.
[0041] Preferably, in the initial state, the distance between the lower end of the movable plate and the conveyor belt is equal to 2 / 3 of the height of the discharge port of the guide trough to avoid being too long to block the normal conveying of materials. Preferably, a limiting member 6 is provided on the side wall of the expansion trough at the intersection of the expansion trough and the discharge trough, which is parallel to the side wall of the discharge trough. The limiting member is a baffle or a block, but no baffle is provided in this embodiment. The limiting member provided at the intersection of the discharge trough and the expansion trough is used to limit the maximum offset of the movable plate, to prevent the reduction of the effective cross-sectional area of the discharge trough, and to prevent the discharge of normal materials from being affected, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the device.
[0042] Working principle of this utility model:
[0043] When the material enters the discharge chute through the guide chute, most of the material will enter the discharge chute smoothly and slide down it. However, if there are foreign objects mixed in the material, these foreign objects will cause the movable plate to deflect when they hit it. This deflection triggers the contact trigger mechanism, causing the trigger rod to shift. After the detection element detects this displacement, it will immediately send a signal to the controller of the belt conveyor motor. After receiving the signal, the controller will trigger the alarm device and shut down, thus preventing foreign objects from damaging the conveyor belt.
[0044] In summary, the utility model realizes real-time detection and protection of foreign matter on the conveyor belt through ingenious mechanical design and electrical control, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the production line. This design not only improves production efficiency, but also reduces the economic losses and maintenance costs of the enterprise, and has important practical application value.
[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
