Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chains, in particular to a light-weight arc wheel variable hanging pitch conveying chain. Background Art
[0002] Chains are generally metal links or rings, mostly used for mechanical transmission and traction, such as chains used for mechanical transmission. Chains generally include four series: transmission chains, conveyor chains, traction chains, and special professional chains. With the development of society and the advancement of science and technology, the level of industrial automation is getting higher and higher. Among them, industrial production lines are an important part of industrial automation, and conveyor chains are very important transmission components on industrial production lines.
[0003] The baggage carousel currently used in the baggage handling system of the airport has the links of the traction chain connected by a pin shaft to form a closed loop. In order to achieve the adjustable pitch of the links of the closed loop traction chain, European patent document EP0629566A2 discloses a structure in which adjacent links are connected by a pin shaft with an eccentric structure, and the adjustable link pitch is achieved by adjusting the relative installation position of the pin shaft of the eccentric structure. In addition, European patent document EP0753474A1 also discloses a structure in which adjacent links are connected by a pin shaft with an eccentric structure, and the adjustable link pitch is achieved by adjusting the relative installation position of the spacer of the eccentric structure. Both structures change the link pitch adjustment by changing the eccentric parts, so as to achieve the variable hanging pitch, which is very inconvenient, and has high requirements for the manufacturing of the eccentric parts. During installation, the installation requirements are also high, and the disassembly and maintenance are troublesome. In addition, the existing chains are heavy, and the production requires more raw materials, and the production cost will be relatively high. Utility Model Content
