Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is based on and claims the priority benefit of the Chinese patent application with application number: 2024208761480 filed on April 25, 2024; the patent name is: A curling roller, and the entire content of the patent application is cited here for reference. Technical Field
[0002] The utility model belongs to the technical field of rollers, and in particular relates to a curled streamlined roller. Background Art
[0003] Traditional rollers are usually made of metal materials. When a smooth belt is squeezed between roller groups, the ends of the rollers are at right angles, resulting in line contact between the belt and the rollers. The pressure acting on the belt is relatively large, causing the belt to deform significantly. During the operation of the belt conveyor, due to various factors such as equipment imbalance and external force interference, the belt is prone to deviation. Since the ends of the rollers are at right angles and in line contact with the belt, the belt is prone to scratches, which reduces the service life of the belt and increases equipment maintenance costs and downtime.
[0004] At the same time, the bearing is placed directly in the bearing seat. When the roller is tilted, the pressure of the conveyor belt on the roller shell acts on the bearing seat. Due to the tilt of the roller, the force of the bearing seat on the bearing and the reaction force of the roller shaft on the bearing are not in the same plane. This deviation will increase the friction between the bearing and the roller shaft, causing serious wear of the roller shaft and clearance, reducing the service life of the roller and shortening the replacement time of the roller.

[0042] The housing 1 is fitted over the outer wall of the bearing seat 2. The bearing seat 2 is provided with a mounting groove. The sealing assembly 13 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove. The bearing assembly is mounted on the inner wall of the sealing assembly 13. The arc-shaped end portion 12 is perpendicular to the housing 1 near the side wall of the housing 1 and has an arc angle of 90° to 160°. The annular connecting portion 21 is an annular structure and is arranged along the inner side of the arc-shaped end portion 12. The annular connecting portion 21 is concentric with the arc-shaped end portion 12 and wraps around the outer side of the annular connecting portion 21. The bearing assembly includes a bearing inner seal 4, which is arranged on the inner side of the retaining ring 14 and on the roller shaft 3.
