Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material transportation, in particular to a 90-degree turning belt conveyor. Background Art

[0002] In traditional material handling systems, belt conveyors are widely used to continuously transport materials between locations. However, in certain applications, such as when materials need to make 90-degree turns during transport, traditional linear belt conveyors are unable to meet these requirements. To achieve this, multiple turning devices and complex conveying paths are often required, which not only increases equipment complexity and cost but also can reduce conveying efficiency and material stability.

[0003] To address these issues, attempts have been made to develop 90-degree turning belt conveyors. These conveyors utilize a specially designed conveyor frame and belt structure, enabling materials to smoothly make 90-degree turns during transport. However, these existing 90-degree turning belt conveyors often suffer from complex structures, suboptimal drive mechanisms, and the tendency for materials to fall through the turns, hindering their effectiveness in practical applications. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims at the technical problems existing in the prior art and provides a 90-degree turning belt conveyor to solve the problem that the above-mentioned materials are difficult to achieve a smooth 90-degree turn.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model for solving the above technical problems is as follows: a 90-degree turning belt conveyor includes a conveying frame, on which a conveying belt 1 and a conveying belt 2 spliced ​​at 90 degrees are arranged; the conveying frame is also provided with two sets of driving mechanisms for respectively driving conveying belt 1 and conveying belt 2.

[0006] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0007] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a driven roller, an active roller and two groups of reversing rollers; the two groups of reversing rollers are parallel to each other and are distributed at a certain angle to the driven roller; the active roller is distributed on one side of the two groups of reversing rollers and is perpendicular to the driven roller; the conveyor belt one or the conveyor belt two passes through the driven roller, the upper reversing roller, the active roller, and the lower reversing roller in sequence.

[0008] Furthermore, the angle between the reversing roller and the driven roller is 45 degrees.

[0009] Furthermore, the driving mechanism also includes a driving motor connected to the active roller.

[0010] Furthermore, the conveying frame is provided with an arc-shaped baffle along the outer edge of the joint between the conveying belt 1 and the conveying belt 2.

[0011] Furthermore, the conveying frame body is also provided with an adjusting shaft connected to the driven roller, and the conveying frame body is also provided with a tensioning screw connected to the adjusting shaft.

[0012] Moreover, the 90-degree turning belt conveyor provided by the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0013] Through a specially designed conveyor frame and conveyor belt structure, the limitations of traditional linear belt conveyors in conveying materials through 90-degree turns have been successfully addressed. Compared to existing 90-degree turn belt conveyors, this design simplifies the structure and optimizes the drive mechanism, effectively avoiding the problem of materials easily falling at turns. Specifically, by utilizing driven rollers, active rollers, and two sets of reversing rollers arranged at a 45-degree angle, this design achieves a smooth transition of the conveyor belt during turns, eliminating the need for multiple steering devices and complex conveying paths. This reduces the complexity and cost of the equipment and improves conveying efficiency and material stability.

[0014] This practical design further enhances the performance of 90-degree belt conveyor curves by adding a curved baffle and combining an adjustment shaft with a tensioning screw. The effective placement of the curved baffle not only prevents material from falling off the edge of the conveyor belt due to inertia or conveying instability during the curve, but also provides the necessary support and guidance for the material through its carefully calculated and designed shape and position, ensuring a smooth and continuous transition from conveyor belt one to conveyor belt two.

[0020] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0021] It should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integrated structures. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of such terms in this patent based on specific circumstances.

[0022] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the 90-degree turning belt conveyor of the present invention includes a conveying frame 1, on which a conveying belt 1 2 and a conveying belt 2 3 spliced ​​at 90 degrees are arranged; the conveying frame 1 is also provided with two sets of driving mechanisms 4 for driving conveying belt 1 2 and conveying belt 2 3 respectively.

[0023] As an embodiment, the driving mechanism 4 includes a driven roller 4.1, a driving roller 4.2 and two sets of reversing rollers 4.3; the two sets of reversing rollers 4.3 are parallel to each other and are distributed at a certain angle to the driven roller 4.1; the driving roller 4.2 is distributed on one side of the two sets of reversing rollers 4.3 and is perpendicular to the driven roller 4.1; the conveyor belt 1 2 or the conveyor belt 2 3 circulates through the driven roller 4.1, the upper reversing roller 4.3, the driving roller 4.2, and the lower reversing roller 4.3 in sequence.

[0024] Furthermore, the angle between the reversing roller 4.3 and the driven roller 4.1 is 45 degrees.

[0025] Furthermore, the driving mechanism 4 further includes a driving motor 4.4 connected to the active roller 4.2.

[0026] Driven roller 4.1: serves as the starting point of conveyor belt conveyor belt 1 2 or conveyor belt 2 3, providing support and guidance for the belt.

[0027] Reversing rollers 4.3: Two sets of parallel reversing rollers are arranged at a 45-degree angle to the driven roller 4.1. Their function is to change the direction of the conveyor belt so that the belt can smoothly transition from the driven roller to the active roller and change direction again to return to the driven roller, forming a cycle.

[0028] Active roller 4.2: Located on one side of the two sets of reversing rollers 4.3 and perpendicular to the driven roller 4.1. The active roller is powered by a drive motor 4.4, driving the conveyor belt to circulate along a predetermined path.

[0029] Drive motor 4.4: connected to the active roller 4.2, providing power source for the entire drive mechanism, enabling the active roller to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt to circulate.

[0030] As an embodiment, the conveying frame 1 is further provided with an arc-shaped baffle 5 along the outer edge of the joint between the conveying belt 1 2 and the conveying belt 2 3 .

[0031] The curved baffle 5 effectively prevents material from falling off the edge of the conveyor belt due to inertia or unstable conveying during turns. Its shape and position have been carefully calculated and designed to ensure it matches the curve path of the conveyor belt, providing the necessary support and guidance for the material. This ensures a smooth and continuous transition from conveyor belt 1 2 to conveyor belt 2 3, while minimizing material loss and disruptions during conveying.

[0032] As an embodiment, the conveyor frame 1 is further equipped with an adjustment shaft 6 connected to the driven roller 4.1. A tensioning screw 7 is also provided on the conveyor frame 1, connected to the adjustment shaft 6. By adjusting the tensioning screw 7, the position of the adjustment shaft 6 and the connected driven roller 4.1 can be fine-tuned. This fine-tuning mechanism is used to adjust the tension of the conveyor belt 1 2 or conveyor belt 2 3, ensuring that the belt maintains proper tension and stability during operation. Proper tension not only improves belt efficiency and reduces wear, but also prevents loose belts during turns or long-distance conveying, which can cause material to fall or unstable conveying.

[0033] It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "include", "comprising" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements that are not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
