Abstract

This application relates to the field of conveying equipment technology, and in particular to an electric tensioning device for the tail of a scraper conveyor, including a frame and a tail wheel assembly. Movable frames for mounting the tail wheel assembly are slidably mounted on both sides of the frame. The movable frames are connected to the tail wheel assembly via a rotating structure. Vertical supports are fixedly mounted on the frame on both sides of the movable frames. A tensioning screw and a tensioning screw are fixedly mounted on the left and right sides of the movable frames, respectively. By setting two screws on the left and right sides of the movable frames—one for pulling the movable frames and the other for tightening them—the burden on a single worm gear reducer is reduced. After adjustment, the two locking nuts on the left and right sides are tightened to engage with one side of the vertical plate, transmitting the tension and thrust through the vertical supports to the frame. This protects the worm gear reducer, extends its service life, increases structural stability, and prevents safety accidents caused by breakage or pull-out of its output shaft.
