[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", and "set" should be understood in a broad sense. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this patent can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0027] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 A coal mining machine chain link locking device with enhanced stability includes a clamping ring 1, which is composed of a first U-shaped ring 6 and a second U-shaped ring 7. Both rings are composed of two clamping parts 16 and a bent part 17. During the manufacturing process, it is ensured that the corresponding two clamping parts 16 can be accurately matched and clamped to each other to form a complete clamping ring 1 structure.

[0028] Next, in order to enhance the strength and stability of the clamping ring 1, two sets of reinforcing cover plates 2 are set at the top and bottom of the clamping ring. Each set of reinforcing cover plates 2 consists of a straight portion 8 and an arc-shaped portion 9. The straight portion 8 is used to limit and protect the clamping portion 16 after insertion, while the arc-shaped portion 9 covers the curved portion 17 to provide additional reinforcement effect.

[0029] The connecting blocks 3 are fixedly installed between the reinforcing cover plates 2. The two connecting blocks 3 are fastened together by locking bolts 4. The locking bolts 4 are flush with the connecting blocks 3 after being fixed, so as to avoid greater wear during use.

[0030] A socket 15 is provided on one side of the two sets of clamping parts 16, and a limiting groove 10 is provided between the two sets of reinforcing cover plates 2 and the two connecting blocks 3. The same inserting plate 5 for positioning is inserted into the limiting groove 10 and the socket 15, which can fix the two sets of clamping parts 16 and the two sets of reinforcing cover plates 2.

[0031] Specifically, a threaded hole 11 is provided at the top of the lower connecting block 3, and a countersunk hole 12 is provided at the top of the upper connecting block 3. The locking bolt 4 passes through the countersunk hole 12 and the inserting plate 5 inserted in the limiting groove 10 and the insertion hole 15, and is finally threadedly connected with the threaded hole 11 to achieve tightening. The top and bottom of the inserting plate 5 are designed to be dovetail-shaped to ensure that it is firmly inserted in the limiting groove 10 and the insertion hole 15 and is not easy to fall off.

[0032] In order to achieve precise fixation of the first U-shaped ring 6 and the second U-shaped ring 7, a positioning mechanism is designed, and a plurality of first slots 18 are opened on one side of one group of clamping parts 16, and second slots 20 corresponding to the first slots 18 are opened on the inner side of the other group of clamping parts 16. When the two groups of clamping parts 16 are clamped with each other, the first slots 18 and the second slots 20 can be plugged into each other to form a stable connection. In addition, a positioning part 19 is provided at the bottom of one group of clamping parts 16, and a positioning groove 21 corresponding to the positioning part 19 is opened at the bottom of the other group of clamping parts 16. After plugging in, the positioning part 19 and the positioning groove 21 are tightly matched to ensure that the two groups of clamping parts 16 remain flush after plugging in, thereby further enhancing the stability of the connection.

[0033] Both ends of the connecting block 3 are also designed with arc grooves corresponding to the arc portion 9. These arc grooves are used to limit the chain to prevent the chain from deflecting or falling off during use, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the entire locking device.

[0034] Working principle: During installation, pass the first U-shaped ring 6 and the second U-shaped ring 7 through the two chain links respectively, and then connect the first slot 18 with the second slot 20 to make the first U-shaped ring 6 and the second U-shaped ring 7 form a whole, and then clamp the two reinforcing cover plates 2 on the upper and lower parts of the first U-shaped ring 6 and the second U-shaped ring 7 respectively, and make the straight part 8 clamp on the clamping part 16, and the arc-shaped part 9 clamp on the curved part 17. After the clamping is completed, pass the plug-in plate 5 through the limiting groove 10 and the insertion hole 15 until the mounting hole on the plug-in plate 5 corresponds to the threaded hole 11, and then insert the locking bolt 4 into the countersunk hole 12 and the mounting hole on the plug-in plate 5, and tighten it into the threaded hole 11, which can fasten the first U-shaped ring 6 and the second U-shaped ring 7 together and reinforce them through the two reinforcing cover plates 2.

[0035] In this application, the structures and connection relationships that are not described in detail are all prior art, and their structures and principles are well-known technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0036] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
