Belt conveyor

Abstract

The utility model relates to the technical field of conveyors, and discloses a belt conveyor which comprises a conveyor body, an arc-shaped fence, an arc-shaped baffle, a first elastic piece, a discharging barrel, a conical barrel and a second elastic piece. In the using process, when the packaging barrels are sequentially placed on the conveyor located on the second layer of the plant, the packaging barrels can be continuously conveyed to the discharging end. And then, under the action of gravity, the materials automatically fall into the arc-shaped fence and the discharging barrel. Under the guidance of the arc-shaped fence and the discharging barrel, the packaging barrel can fall on the ground of a plant, and therefore the work that the packaging barrel is conveyed from the high position to the low position is completed. In addition, in the falling process of the packaging barrel, the packaging barrel can collide with the arc-shaped baffle and the multiple conical baffles in sequence. At the moment, the first elastic piece and the multiple second elastic pieces can play a buffering role, so that the falling speed of the packaging barrel is reduced, and the packaging barrel is located in the center of the discharging barrel all the time. The packaging barrel can stably fall, and the falling precision of the packaging barrel can be guaranteed.

[0002] In an ice cream production workshop, it is often necessary to convey the packaged ice cream buckets on the second floor of the workshop to the ground floor of the workshop. For this purpose, the method of adding a guiding cylinder to the discharging end of the belt conveyor is adopted to complete the conveying, that is, the belt conveyor is installed on the second floor of the workshop, and the feeding end of the belt conveyor is located at the feeding position of the bucket. Then, the discharging end of the belt conveyor is suspended above the ground, that is, directly above the discharging position. Finally, the guiding cylinder is installed between the discharging end and the discharging position, which can prevent the bucket from deviating during the falling process and complete the work of conveying the bucket from the second floor of the workshop to the ground. For example, in the related art (Publication No.: CN218664055U), a chocolate molding template falling device is disclosed, including a support frame, an upper conveying mechanism and a lower conveying mechanism. A material guiding bin is arranged on the support frame. The upper conveying mechanism is arranged on the top of the support frame and is used to convey the molding template into the material guiding bin. The lower conveying mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the support frame and is used to convey the molding template falling from the material guiding bin. In this chocolate molding template falling device, the material guiding bin also plays a guiding role, and then under the action of gravity, the conveying work from a high place to a low place is completed.

[0003] In the process of implementing the above embodiments, it is found that at least the following problems exist in the related art:

[0004] Since the entire falling process is a free fall, when the falling distance is relatively high, a large impact will be generated after falling on the target position. That is, it will generate a large amount of noise and is likely to damage the bucket.
