Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tubular belt conveyors, in particular to an auxiliary traction module for a tubular belt conveyor. Background Technique

[0002] Long-distance tubular belt conveyors (pipe belt conveyors) are increasingly widely used in the bulk material transportation industry. One important application is to transport the mined raw materials after crushing to a warehouse or processing area far from the mine. Sometimes the length of the pipe belt conveyor can even reach more than 10 kilometers. And the conveying path conditions are various. Near the mining area collection point, the ideal flat ground hardly exists, and most of the on-site situations are uphill and downhill.

[0003] If there is a section of uphill near the starting point (feeding end) of the conveying path, in order to overcome this section of uphill, for a single-point drive type pipe belt conveyor, the far-away drive end (discharging end) needs to provide a very high traction force. Its belt almost needs to bear a very high traction load throughout the whole process, which means that the components along the way also bear a very high load. At present, most of the pipe belt conveyors on the market are single-point driven. From the perspective of force distribution, it is unwise to deal with the uphill terrain far from the drive end. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The utility model aims to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provides an auxiliary traction module for a tubular belt conveyor, which can be deployed at the top of the mountain slope to play a role in uphill auxiliary traction, optimize the overall traction force distribution of the equipment, and reduce the unnecessary load of the belt on the along-way path.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, an auxiliary traction module for a tubular belt conveyor is designed, which includes a front frame and a rear frame arranged front and back. An adjusting ring is provided between the front frame and the rear frame. A number of rollers are respectively provided on the outer sides of the front frame and the rear frame. One end of the roller is connected to the adjusting ring through a movable hinge, and one end of the adjusting ring is connected to an actuator.

[0006] The adjusting ring includes a semi-ring plate one and a semi-ring plate two, and the semi-ring plate one and the semi-ring plate two are detachably connected through a connecting piece.

[0007] A sleeve is provided inside the adjusting ring, and a flange is provided inside the sleeve. The flange is fixed between the front frame and the rear frame.

[0008] The other end of the roller is fixed to the front frame or the rear frame through a fixed hinge.

[0009] Through holes are provided on both the front frame and the rear frame, and the rollers are evenly distributed outside the through holes.

[0010] Side frames are respectively connected to the sides of the front frame and the rear frame.

[0011] The upper ends of the front frame and the rear frame are connected to a top cover, and a cable groove is arranged on one side of the top cover.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has a simple structure and can add a traction auxiliary module to the tubular belt conveyor, which is appropriately arranged at the top of the slope of the climbing section to change the traction distribution of the tubular belt, thereby reducing the friction along the entire system and reducing the invalid load. When replacing spare parts, there is no need to disassemble the tubular belt, and replacing spare parts is simple and quick. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] The utility model is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an adjustment ring 3 is provided between the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2, and a plurality of rollers 4 are provided on the outer sides of the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2 respectively. One end of the roller 4 is connected to the adjustment ring 3 through a movable hinge 5, and one end of the adjustment ring 3 is connected to the actuator 16.

[0022] The adjusting ring 3 includes a semi-ring piece 1 3-1 and a semi-ring piece 2 3-2, and the semi-ring piece 1 3-1 and the semi-ring piece 2 3-2 are detachably connected via a connecting piece. Figure 4 As shown, the adjusting ring 3 is a two-piece type, and the two half ring pieces are locked into a full circle by a connecting piece. The detachable design of the adjusting ring ensures that when replacing the adjusting ring, there is no need to remove the middle tubular tape 13, which is convenient for replacement and saves manpower and material resources. In specific use, the connecting piece is a bolt.

[0023] Inside the adjusting ring 3, there is a sleeve 7. Inside the sleeve 7, there is a flange 8. The flange 8 is fixed between the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2. With the cooperation of the flange 8 and the sleeve 7, the adjusting ring 3 can rotate around the center of the tubular belt 13.

[0024] The other end of the idler 4 is fixed to the front frame 1 or the rear frame 2 through a fixed hinge 6.

[0025] Both the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2 are provided with through holes 9, and the idlers 4 are evenly distributed outside the through holes 9. As Figures 1 to 2 shown, in this embodiment, several idlers 4 are circumferentially distributed.

[0026] The side surfaces of the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2 are respectively connected to the side frames 10.

[0027] The upper ends of the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2 are connected to the top cover 11, and a cable groove 12 is provided on one side of the top cover 11.

[0028] When the utility model is in use, the tubular belt 13 passes through the through holes 9 on the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2. When traction needs to be provided, the actuator 16 drives one end of the adjusting ring 3 up or down, and the adjusting ring 3 rotates around the tubular belt 13. Since the adjusting ring 3 is connected to the idler 4 through the movable hinge 5, driven by the adjusting ring 3, as Figures 6 to 7 shown, the idlers 4 hold tightly towards the center or loosen away from the center.

[0029] Specifically in use, as Figure 5 shown, one or more traction units 14 of the utility model can be arranged on the front and rear sides of the ordinary idler 15 to realize traction modules with different total powers. The number of the traction units 14 can be increased or decreased according to the required traction force.
