Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of encoder idler wheel counterweight groups, in particular to an encoder idler wheel counterweight component for carrier belt receiving. Background Art
[0002] In current industrial production, the idler wheel for receiving material is an important component of the carrier tape transmission system, and it plays a key guiding and supporting role. However, there is a problem with the existing idler wheel design for receiving material, that is, the counterweight block is not adjustable. This fixed counterweight design results in the inability to flexibly adjust the tension generated by the counterweight block on the carrier tape when facing different types of carrier tapes.
[0003] Since different types of carrier tapes have different materials, thicknesses, weights and other characteristics, their sensitivity and adaptability to tension are different. When the tension applied by the counterweight to the carrier tape is too large or too small, the carrier tape may be slightly deformed. This deformation not only affects the accuracy and stability of the carrier tape transmission, but may also cause more serious production problems, such as carrier tape breakage, deviation, etc. Utility Model Content

The provision of the rotating wheels can provide additional support for the carrier tape and ensure that it is transported along a predetermined path. The outer surface of the rotating wheels fits with the outer surface of the carrier tape, which can effectively guide the movement direction of the carrier tape and prevent it from being deflected or twisted.
[0011] Preferably, the outer surface of the fixing plate is provided with a plurality of screw grooves, and the design of the screw grooves enables the fixing plate to be firmly connected to other components or structures through fasteners such as bolts.

[0013] Preferably, the top ends of the connecting plates are all arc-shaped, which reduces the risk of scratches and improves safety.

[0032] Working principle: First, the outer surface of the receiving idler wheel 3 is movably mounted with a carrier belt 4, which is the main working part of the entire transmission system. In order to meet the needs of different types of carrier belts, the component is designed with an adjustable counterweight system. In the initial state, the first counterweight 8 is installed at one end of the carrier belt 4, and its weight provides the necessary tension for the carrier belt. The bottom of the first counterweight 8 is designed with a screw hole 912, which is a key part of the entire adjustable counterweight system. When it is necessary to adapt to different types of carrier belts, the counterweight can be adjusted through the screw hole 912. Specifically, the screw rod 911 is screwed into the screw hole 912, and the other end of the screw rod 911 is connected to the second counterweight 9. By rotating the screw rod 911, the distance between the second counterweight 9 and the first counterweight 8 can be easily increased or decreased, thereby changing the total weight of the entire counterweight system. Since the volume of the counterweight block is reduced and the threaded hole is designed, it becomes simple and quick to replace the counterweight blocks of different weights. When it is necessary to adapt to different types of carrier tapes, it is only necessary to select a second counterweight 9 of appropriate weight according to the needs and fix it on the first counterweight 8 through threaded connection. This design makes the counterweight system more flexible, can quickly adapt to the needs of different carrier tape products, and realize fast and accurate counterweight adjustment.
