Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] See also Figure 1-6 , the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0028] The express bidirectional conveying device with an adjustable tensioning structure comprises a conveying mechanism 1 for the gap between conveyor belts, wherein the conveying mechanism 1 comprises:

[0029] The installation assembly 11 includes a conveying frame 111;

[0030] The transmission assembly 12 includes a first power output device 122 and a second power output device 126 movably installed inside the conveyor frame 111.

At the same time, in this application document, the first power output device 122 and the second power output device 126 are not limited to the servo motors recorded. As long as the power output device can be provided, it belongs to the protection scope of this patent. The first power output device 122 A first large roller 121 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the output shaft, a second large roller 125 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the output shaft of the second power output device 126, the surface of the first large roller 121 is sleeved with a first conveyor belt 123, the surface of the second large roller 125 is sleeved with a second conveyor belt 127, a first small roller 124 is installed inside the first conveyor belt 123, a second small roller 128 is installed inside the second conveyor belt 127, the sizes of the first small roller 124 and the second small roller 128 are reduced, so that when the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127 on the surfaces of the first small roller 124 and the second small roller 128 are docked, the gap between the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127 is reduced, thereby avoiding the situation where small express items fall when being transported.

[0031] Meanwhile, the first small roller 124 and the second small roller 128 may not be reduced in size, and a roller (which may be self-driven or undriven) may be arranged between the two non-reduced rollers as a second alternative technical solution.

[0032] At the same time, the first small roller 124 and the second small roller 128 do not need to be reduced in size, and a horizontal transition piece can be set between the two rollers (especially small express deliveries may still be stranded on the transition piece) as a third alternative technical solution.

[0033] The tensioning assembly 13 is disposed inside the conveying frame 111 and is used to tension the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127 .

[0034] In this embodiment, two slide grooves 112 are provided on both the front and rear plates of the conveying frame 111 and are bilaterally symmetrical. The slide grooves 112 are arc-shaped and are used to limit the movement of the first small roller 124 and the second small roller 128 .

[0035] In this embodiment, the tensioning assembly 13 includes a mounting plate 131 fixedly installed at the bottom of the conveying frame 111, and two mounting frames 132 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting plate 131. A rotating shaft 133 is installed inside the mounting frame 132 for rotation. A gear 134 is fixedly sleeved on the middle outer ring of the rotating shaft 133. A connecting rod 135 is fixedly installed at the front and rear ends of the rotating shaft 133. A tensioning roller 136 is rotatably installed on the inner side of the connecting rod 135 through the rotating shaft, and an annular pressure sensor 137 is fixedly installed in the middle of the rotating shaft of the tensioning roller 136. The shaft inside the tensioning roller 136 slides in the sliding groove 112.

[0036] The rotating shaft in the middle of the tensioning roller 136 is fixedly connected between the two connecting rods 135, and the tensioning roller 136 rotates on the outer ring of the rotating shaft, and the annular pressure sensor 137 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer ring of the rotating shaft, and the annular pressure sensor 137 is installed in the middle of the tensioning roller 136 and is rotatably connected thereto. When the pressure sensor return value is greater than or less than the set range, the lying motor 142 automatically rotates forward or reverse to ensure that the belt is appropriately tightened. The model of the annular pressure sensor 137 is TH2ID.

[0037] The two worm gears 145 with opposite thread directions drive the two gears 134 to rotate in opposite directions. At this time, the gear 134 drives the rotating shaft 133 to rotate. The rotating shaft 133 drives the tensioning roller 136 to rotate in a circle around the rotating shaft 133 through two connecting rods 135, so that the tensioning roller 136 presses down on the inner and lower sides of the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127, thereby achieving the tensioning of the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127, so that the tensioning degree of the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual conditions, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the conveyor belt.

[0038] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 1 also includes a motor mounting base 141 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting plate 131, and a lying motor 142 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the motor mounting base 141. The lying motor 142 is a three-phase asynchronous motor, which is electrically connected to an external power supply and is opened and closed by a person operating the control panel. A motor shaft 143 is rotatably mounted on the output end of the lying motor 142, and two worms 145 are fixedly sleeved on the outer ring of the motor shaft 143. A positioning frame 144 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting plate 131, and the motor shaft 143 rotates and penetrates the interior of the positioning frame 144. The worm 145 is meshed with the gear 134. The operation of the lying motor 142 drives the motor shaft 143 to rotate, and the motor shaft 143 drives the two worms 145 to rotate synchronously. The two worms 145 drive the two gears 134 to rotate, and the thread directions of the two worms 145 are opposite, and the two worms 145 are respectively meshed with the two gears 134.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first large roller 121 and the second large roller 125 are respectively provided with limiting grooves that cooperate with the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127 to effectively prevent the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127 from being displaced during movement and affecting the express delivery path.

[0040] Meanwhile, the contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.

At this time, the gear 134 drives the rotating shaft 133 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 133 drives the tensioning roller 136 to rotate around the rotating shaft 133 through the two connecting rods 135, so that the tensioning roller 136 can tighten the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 123. The inner lower side of the second conveyor belt 127 is pressed downward, and during the pressing process, the annular pressure sensor 137 contacts the conveyor belt. The pressure sensor return value is greater than or less than the set range, and the horizontal motor 142 automatically runs forward or reverse to ensure that the belt is moderately tightened, thereby achieving tensioning of the first conveyor belt 123 and the second conveyor belt 127. At this time, the first power output device 122 and the second power output device 126 are running, and the first conveyor belt 123 is driven to be transported to the left or right through the first large roller 121 and the first small roller 124 and the second large roller 125 and the second small roller 128.
