Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of belt conveyor rollers, and more particularly to a rubber-free driven roller. Background Art

[0002] Belt conveyors, also known as belt conveyors or rubber belt conveyors, are a commonly used material handling equipment. They are widely used in industries such as home appliances, electronics, electrical appliances, machinery, tobacco, injection molding, postal services, printing, food, chemicals, and mining. In the manufacturing industry, they are often used to transport parts, semi-finished products, and finished products from one production link to another, achieving production line automation.

[0003] To enhance friction between the pulleys and the conveyor belt, most belt conveyors currently use rubber coating on the pulleys. This involves coating the drive and transmission pulleys with a layer of wear-resistant rubber. This increased surface friction ensures stable belt operation and high material conveying efficiency. However, due to prolonged friction and compression with the conveyor belt, the rubber coating gradually wears away, becoming rough and even cracking and flaking. Once the rubber coating has worn sufficiently, it no longer provides sufficient friction, compromising the proper functioning of the conveyor belt. Therefore, the rubber coating must be regularly replaced to ensure adequate friction between the pulleys and the conveyor belt. Frequently replacing the rubber coating on the pulleys not only increases the belt conveyor's maintenance costs, but also requires shutting down the conveyor for each replacement, interrupting ongoing material conveying operations. This, in turn, impacts production efficiency and capacity, resulting in significant financial losses for the company.

[0004] Therefore, for belt conveyors, how to provide a driven roller that does not require rubber coating and can provide good friction transmission force to the conveyor belt is a problem that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve. Utility Model Content
