Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chains, in particular to a transport chain for glass production. Background Art

[0002] A conveyor chain is a type of chain used in various transport systems, such as conveyors and elevators. It is designed to withstand heavy loads and run smoothly and quietly at low speeds. Conveyor chains are typically made from high-carbon steel or stainless steel and are heat treated to increase their strength and wear resistance. There are several different variations of this type of chain, including roller chains, sliding chains, and toothed chains, each with its own characteristics and advantages. The size and load-bearing capacity of the chain can be selected based on the specific requirements of the application. Chains can also be customized to meet specific industry or operational needs. In glass production projects, chains are often required to transport glass.

[0003] In the prior art, since the chain needs to bear tension all the time, a certain section of the chain may be overloaded and damaged and broken. In addition, when transporting glass, since glass is fragile, broken glass slag is easy to get stuck on the inside of the chain, and the chain needs to be disassembled for cleaning and replacement of components. However, the disassembly and installation of the existing chain components usually require the use of a hammer and rivets to knock the chain to remove the connecting pin, which is rather troublesome. During the knocking process, the chain is easily deformed, resulting in a reduction in the service life of the chain. In addition, during the use of the existing chain, the tension it bears cannot be observed in real time. Therefore, a transportation chain for glass production is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
