The drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to facilitate a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of the present invention.

[0022] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.

[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms used herein in the specification of this invention are intended only to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0024] Below, the present invention is further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0025] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a safe and durable tunnel heating device includes a conveyor belt 10 and a heating device 20, wherein the heating device 20 is arranged above the conveyor belt 10, and a support plate 40 is arranged below the conveyor belt 10;

[0026] The heating device 20 includes a heater 21 , and a sensor 30 is provided between the heater 21 and the conveyor belt 10 ;

[0027] The support plate 40 includes a support plate body 41 that does not contact the conveyor belt 10 , and support plates 43 that contact the conveyor belt 10 are respectively provided at both ends of the support plate body 41 in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 10 .

[0028] In this embodiment, the workpiece 50 is a thermal transfer film, which is a flammable material. In the actual production process, such as abnormal winding or shutdown maintenance, the thermal transfer film may move abnormally and come into contact with the heater 21. The high temperature of the heater 21 will cause the thermal transfer film to burn and cause a fire. The present application sets a sensor 30 between the heater 21 and the conveyor belt 10 to avoid fire caused by contact between the thermal transfer film and the heater 21.

[0029] In this embodiment, the conveyor belt 10 does not contact the support plate body 41 , but only contacts the support plates 43 at both ends, thereby reducing the friction of the conveyor belt 10 during the transmission process and improving the durability of the conveyor belt 10 .

[0030] Furthermore, in order to ensure the accuracy of the sensor 30 in monitoring the proximity of the workpiece 50 to the heater 21 , the sensor 30 is a through-beam grating sensor.

[0031] Furthermore, in order to make the workpiece 50 close to the conveyor belt 10, the conveyor belt 10 is a mesh-shaped thin-walled structure, and a negative pressure port 44 is provided on the support plate 43. The negative pressure port 44 is connected to the negative pressure generator.

[0032] The negative pressure generator generates negative pressure at the negative pressure port 44 , and the negative pressure causes the workpiece 50 to be pressed against the conveyor belt 10 , thereby preventing the workpiece 50 from drifting.

[0033] Furthermore, in order to improve the uniformity of the workpiece 50 clinging to the conveyor belt 10 , a plurality of negative pressure ports 44 are provided in an array.

[0034] Furthermore, in order to simplify the negative pressure pipeline and improve the convenience of installation and maintenance of the negative pressure pipeline, a negative pressure box 42 is provided below the negative pressure port 44. The negative pressure box 42 is a thin-walled hollow structure. An exhaust port 45 is provided on one side of the negative pressure box 42, and the exhaust port 45 is connected to the negative pressure generator.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to achieve a better balance between flexibility, heat resistance and wear resistance, the conveyor belt 10 is made of Teflon.

[0036] For those skilled in the art, various other corresponding changes and deformations can be made based on the technical solutions and concepts described above, and all of these changes and deformations should fall within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model patent.
