[0024] Embodiment 2:
[0025] Figure 1-4A chain tensioning structure of a scraper conveyor according to an embodiment of the utility model is shown, which comprises a shell 1: a threaded rod 2 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the shell 1, a motor 3 is fixedly installed on the front side of the shell 1 by bolts, two symmetrically arranged threaded rings 4 are threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 2, a box 5 is fixedly installed on the left side of the shell 1, a U-shaped frame 6 is arranged in the inner cavity of the shell 1, a connecting rod 7 is rotatably connected between the U-shaped frame 6 and the threaded ring 4 by a rotating shaft, an end of the U-shaped frame 6 passes through the inner cavity of the box 5 and is fixedly connected with a slider 8, a gear 10 is rotatably connected to the surface of the slider 8 and the inner wall of the box 5, a chain 11 is commonly connected to the two gears 10, and a feed hopper 14 and a discharge hopper 1 are respectively connected to the top and bottom of the box 5. 5. A rectangular sleeve 16 is fixedly installed on the front side of the box body 5 by bolts, and a vertical rod 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular sleeve 16. A cross bar 18 is arranged on the surface of the vertical rod 17. A touch switch 19 is fixedly installed on the front side of the box body 5. The top of the vertical rod 17 abuts against the touch switch 19, and the front end of the cross bar 18 is rotatably connected to the vertical rod 17. The rear end of the cross bar 18 extends to the inner cavity of the box body 5. A rectangular groove adapted to the cross bar 18 is opened on the front side of the box body 5. The bottom of the slider 8 fits with the top of the chain 11.

[0026] Working principle: When the utility model is used, the user pours the raw coal into the inner cavity of the box body 5 through the feed hopper 14, then turns on the motor 13 and drives the chain 11 through the gear 10, and then the chain 11 scrapes the raw coal at the bottom of the inner cavity of the box body 5 through the scraper 12 and discharges it through the discharge hopper 15. If the chain 11 loosens and falls and no longer supports the cross bar 18, the cross bar 18 drives the vertical bar 17 to move downward and no longer presses the touch switch 19, and then the touch switch 19 is turned on and the motor 3 is turned on. At this time, under the limiting action of the U-shaped frame 6 and the connecting rod 7, the motor 3 is driven by the screw The threaded rod 2 drives the two threaded rings 4 to move oppositely, and then the threaded ring 4 drives the U-shaped frame 6 to move right through the connecting rod 7, so that the U-shaped frame 6 drives the gear 10 on the right side to move through the slider 8 and tighten the chain 11. As the chain 11 is tightened and its top is horizontal, the chain 11 drives the cross bar 18 and the vertical bar 17 to move upward and press the touch switch 19 again. At this time, the touch switch 19 is powered off and the motor 3 is turned off, so that the touch switch is turned on by the drop of the chain when it is loose, so that the motor drives the driven gear to move and drives the rack to tighten, thereby improving the convenience of chain tension adjustment.
[0027] To sum up: the chain tensioning structure of the scraper conveyor, through the sagging of the chain 11 when it is loose, the cross bar 18 drives the vertical bar 17 to move downward and no longer presses the touch switch 19, and then the touch switch 19 is turned on and the motor 3 is turned on, and then the motor 3 drives the U-shaped frame 6 to move right through the cooperation of the threaded rod 2, the threaded ring 4 and the connecting rod 7, so that the U-shaped frame 6 drives the gear 10 on the right side to move through the slider 8 and tighten the chain 11, so that the touch switch is turned on by the falling of the chain when it is loose, and then the motor drives the driven gear to move and drive the rack to tighten, thereby improving the convenience of chain tension adjustment.
