Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of belt conveyor technology, and more specifically, to a telescopic belt conveyor. Background Technology

[0002] Telescopic belt conveyors are ordinary belt conveyors with an added telescopic mechanism, allowing the conveyor to extend or retract freely along its length. Users can adjust the buttons to control the conveyor's length at any time. Models equipped with automatic lifting devices also allow users to control the height of the conveyor's end. Telescopic belt conveyors are mainly used in vehicle loading and unloading and material handling systems requiring telescopic movement.

[0003] Telescopic belt conveyors significantly shorten the distance for manual material handling, reduce loading and unloading time, lower labor intensity, minimize product damage, reduce loading and unloading costs, and improve work efficiency. Telescopic belt conveyors can operate in both directions to transport materials. They can be used in conjunction with other conveying equipment and material sorting systems to automate material entry and exit from warehouses or vehicle loading and unloading. Conveyor sections are generally available in two-section, three-section, and four-section configurations. The belt conveying direction can be selected as unidirectional or bidirectional. The belt conveying angle can be selected as horizontal, fixed angle, or automatic lifting.

[0004] However, existing telescopic belt conveyors have certain defects when conveying materials. Because each section of the conveyor is not on the same plane, the belt on the lower telescopic section cannot be effectively supported. When conveying heavy objects, instability occurs at the junction of two sections, such as obstruction or bumps. This defect needs further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and to propose a telescopic belt conveyor.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] A telescopic belt conveyor includes a base, on which a telescopic conveying mechanism is mounted. The telescopic conveying mechanism includes a main belt conveyor and telescopic sections. One end of the main belt conveyor is rotatably connected to the base. Multiple telescopic sections are arranged sequentially from the innermost to the outermost, with the outermost section placed inside and slidably connected to the main belt conveyor. A conveyor belt is mounted on the main belt conveyor and the telescopic sections. The conveyor also includes:

[0008] Steering drive mechanism, connected between base and belt conveyor main unit;

[0009] A support mechanism is sequentially installed on each telescopic section. The support mechanism includes a support device rotatably connected to the telescopic section and a drive component installed within the telescopic section.

[0010] This device provides double support for the conveyor belt by setting up a support mechanism, ensuring that the transported goods can move more smoothly when passing through two adjacent telescopic sections or the connection between the telescopic section and the main belt conveyor, thus improving the stability of goods transportation.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the steering drive mechanism includes a second mounting seat fixedly and symmetrically arranged at the top of the base, a rotating seat symmetrically and rotatably connected to both sides of the belt conveyor main unit, and a telescopic component rotatably connected between the second mounting seat and the rotating seat.

[0012] The above solution can achieve an overall angular deflection of the conveyor belt main unit and the telescopic end through the telescopic component, thereby changing the final conveying direction of the goods.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the support device includes a support base, and a plurality of storage slots that are one-to-one with the support base are opened on the telescopic section. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected in each storage slot. The support base is provided on the rotating shaft and the rotating shaft is connected to a drive component. A cylindrical roller that cooperates with the conveyor belt is rotatably connected to one end of the support base.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the drive component includes a servo motor, and each storage slot has an installation slot on its wall. The servo motor is installed in the installation slot and is connected to the rotating shaft through a coupling.

[0015] In the above scheme, when the cylindrical roller contacts the conveyor belt and the support is in a vertical position, the drive component stops working, thereby defining the position of several support seats on a telescopic section. Then, through the joint cooperation of the support seats, cylindrical rollers and the main belt conveyor on each telescopic section, the conveyor belt completes the subsequent smooth and stable transmission of the goods.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the four corners of the bottom of the base are rotatably connected to movable wheels.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] Compared to existing technologies, this device utilizes the combined efforts of the support bases, cylindrical rollers, and the main conveyor belt on each telescopic section to ensure smooth and stable transmission of the conveyor belt. When materials are placed on the conveyor belt and are transported through adjacent telescopic sections or the connection between the telescopic section and the main conveyor belt, they can move more stably without affecting the retraction of subsequent telescopic sections. This significantly reduces the probability of materials being obstructed or jolted, resulting in better cargo conveying performance. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. The present utility model will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0024] Please see Figure 1 -2, a telescopic belt conveyor, including a base 1, with movable wheels 2 rotatably connected to the four corners of the bottom end of the base 1 to facilitate the overall transfer of the telescopic belt conveyor. Further, the movable wheels 2 are provided with locking buckles, which are not shown in the figure, and the locking buckles facilitate the stopping of the device at any time. The base 1 is also provided with a telescopic conveying mechanism, which includes a belt conveyor main unit 3 and a telescopic section 4. One end of the belt conveyor main unit 3 is rotatably connected to the base 1 (specifically, two first mounting seats 7 are symmetrically and fixedly provided at the top end of the base 1, and the bottom of the belt conveyor main unit 3 is rotatably connected to the first mounting seats 7). There are multiple telescopic sections 4, which are sequentially connected from the inside to the outside. The outermost telescopic section 4 is placed inside the belt conveyor main unit 3 and slidably connected to it. The belt conveyor main unit 3 and the telescopic section 4 are provided with a conveyor belt 6. The belt conveyor main unit 3 and the telescopic section 4 are provided with a drive device for driving the telescopic section 4 to extend and retract and the conveyor belt 6 to drive. The extension and retraction of the telescopic section 4 and the driving of the conveyor belt 6 are both prior art, and their principles are not described. The drive device is not shown in the figure. It also includes a support mechanism 5 and a steering drive mechanism.

[0025] The steering drive mechanism is connected between the base 1 and the belt conveyor main unit 3;

[0026] Specifically, the steering drive mechanism includes two second mounting seats 8 fixedly and symmetrically arranged at the top of the base 1. Rotary seats 10 are symmetrically rotatably connected to both sides of the belt conveyor main unit 3. A telescopic assembly 9 is rotatably connected between the second mounting seats 8 and the rotating seats 10. Specifically, the telescopic assembly 9 is rotatably connected to the second mounting seats 8, and the retractable rod of the telescopic assembly 9 is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 10. The telescopic assembly 9 is a hydraulic telescopic rod.

[0027] Each telescopic section 4 is provided with a support mechanism 5, wherein the support mechanism 5 includes a support device rotatably connected to the telescopic section 4 and a drive component disposed within the telescopic section 4;

[0028] The support device includes a support base 11. The telescopic section 4 has several storage slots 41 that are matched and correspond to the support base 11. Each storage slot 41 is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 13. The rotating shaft 13 is provided with the support base 11 and is connected to a drive component. One end of the support base 11 is rotatably connected to a cylindrical roller 12 that matches the conveyor belt 6.

[0029] Further refinements of the above embodiments, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the drive assembly includes a servo motor 15. Each storage slot 41 has a mounting slot 14 on its wall. The servo motor 15 is installed in the mounting slot 14 and is connected to the rotating shaft 13 via a coupling, which is not shown in the figure.

[0030] It should be noted that the belt conveyor main unit 3, the telescopic component 9, and the servo motor 15 are all electrically connected to the controller, which is not shown in the figure.

[0031] The working process of this utility model:

[0032] First, the main belt conveyor 3 is started, and the drive unit is controlled by the controller to automatically extend multiple telescopic sections 4. Then, the desired cargo conveying length is adjusted. After adjustment, the tilt angle of the device can be adjusted via the steering drive mechanism, enabling directional tilting conveying of the cargo. After the tilt angle is adjusted, the drive components on several telescopic sections 4 operate sequentially under the control of the controller, causing several support seats 11 on each telescopic section 4 to rotate simultaneously. This causes one end of the cylindrical roller 12 to move away from the receiving trough 41 and contact the bottom of the conveyor belt 6. When the cylindrical roller 12 contacts the conveyor belt 6 and the support seat 11 is in a vertical position... When the state is reached, the drive component stops working, thereby limiting the position of several support seats 11 on a telescopic section 4 (i.e., changing from the horizontal state before deflection to the vertical state, initially stored in the storage groove 41). Then, through the joint cooperation of the support seats 11, cylindrical rollers 12 and belt conveyor 3 on each telescopic section 4, the conveyor belt 6 is driven smoothly and stably. When the material is placed on the conveyor belt 6 and is conveyed and passes through two adjacent telescopic sections or the connection between the telescopic section and the belt conveyor, it can move more stably without affecting the contraction of the subsequent telescopic section, greatly reducing the probability of the material being obstructed or bumped, and the cargo conveying effect is better.

[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The descriptions of the above embodiments and specifications are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
