[0020] In order to further understand the content of the utility model, the utility model is described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Combination Figure 1 A grain dryer transmission chain tensioning mechanism comprises a base 1, and a conveying component 2 is fixedly installed inside the base 1.

[0022] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with embodiments.

[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 The conveying component 2 includes a motor 26 movably installed inside the base 1. The motor 26 is provided with two groups. Gas rods 28 are fixedly installed on the lower surfaces of the two groups of motors 26. A bottom plate 281 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of one group of gas rods 28. A fixed plate 282 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the bottom plate 281. A roller 283 is fixedly installed on the fixed plate 282. A driving rod 23 is fixedly installed on the output end of the motor 26. A connecting block 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the driving rod 23. The connecting block 22 is fitted and connected to the inner wall of the base 1. A T-shaped oblique block 21 is fixedly installed on one side of one group of connecting blocks 22, and a T-shaped straight block 29 is fixedly installed on one side of the other group of connecting blocks 22. The bottom plate 281 allows the conveying component 2 to descend when it contacts the grain, allowing the roller 283 to move with the motor 26, so that the conveying component 2 is gradually tightened.

[0024] A bearing 231 is sleeved on the outer surface of the driving rod 23 , and an arc plate 232 is sleeved on the outer surface of the bearing 231 . A connecting plate 233 is fixedly installed on one side of the arc plate 232 , and the two groups of grain wheels 24 can be synchronously lowered through the connecting plate 233 .

[0025] A grain shifting wheel 24 is sleeved on the outer surface of the driving rod 23, and a chain 25 is sleeved on the outer surface of the grain shifting wheel 24. A conveyor belt 27 is fixedly installed on one side of the chain 25. The conveyor belt 27 can not only transport grains but also automatically adjust the tension of the conveyor belt 27 through the air rod 28 when the grains fall onto the surface of the conveyor belt 27.

[0026] A side panel 11 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the base 1, and a T-shaped oblique groove 12 and a T-shaped straight groove 17 are provided on the inner wall of the side panel 11. The T-shaped oblique groove 12 is matched with the T-shaped oblique block 21, and the T-shaped straight groove 17 is matched with the T-shaped straight block 29. A horizontal panel 13 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the side panel 11, and a vertical panel 14 is fixedly mounted on one side of the horizontal panel 13. The T-shaped straight groove 17 allows one group of grain wheels 24 to move up and down, and the T-shaped oblique groove 12 allows the other group of grain wheels 24 to move up and down and forward and backward at the same time.

[0027] A pad 15 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base 1, and the upper surface of the pad 15 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of one group of gas rods 28. A guide rail 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the pad 15, and the guide rail 16 is adapted to the roller 283. Through the fixed connection between the pad 15 and one group of gas rods 28, only one group of grain wheels 24 can be moved, thereby gradually tightening the grain wheels 24.

[0028] A rectangular inclined groove 141 is provided on one side of the vertical plate 14, and an inclined slide plate 142 is slidably arranged inside the rectangular inclined groove 141. One end of the inclined slide plate 142 is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 13, and the other end of the inclined slide plate 142 is fixedly installed with a limit plate 143. The upper surface of the vertical plate 14 is fixedly installed with the lower surface of the motor 26. Through the rectangular inclined groove 141, the vertical plate 14 can move along the inclined slide plate 142 when the motor 26 descends.

[0029] Working principle: When it is necessary to transport grain, when the grain is dropped from the previous device onto the surface of the conveyor belt 27, the grain will be pressed down by the conveyor belt 27 with the roller 283 due to the force of the fall and its own force. Since the arc plate 232 on the outer surface of the driving rod 23 is in contact with the conveyor belt 27, when the grain falls onto the surface of the conveyor belt 27, the grain wheel 24 will feel the downward pressure and thus descend. While descending, since the connecting plate 233 is fixedly installed between the two sets of arc plates 232, the two sets of arc plates 232 will descend together, and the vertical plate 14 on the lower surface of the motor 26 will move along the inclined slide plate 142. The grain shifting wheel 24 with the roller 283 will move along the inclined slide plate 142 and the T-shaped inclined groove 12, so that the roller 283 can both descend and move, and the gas rod 28 fixedly installed on the surface of the pad 15 can only move up and down. As one group of grain shifting wheels 24 moves, the other group moves up and down together in the original position. The grain shifting wheels 24 in motion will straighten the conveyor belt 27, making the conveyor belt 27 in a taut state. As the amount of grain becomes less and less, the pressure received by the gas rod 28 also becomes less and less, and the grain shifting wheel 24 will gradually reset, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the tension of the chain 25 according to the weight of the grain itself.
