Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveyor technology, and in particular to a height-adjustable conveyor. Background Technology
[0002] Conveyors are frequently used conveying equipment in the process of material transportation. Conventional conveyors use a motor to drive the conveyor rollers to rotate, which in turn causes the conveyor belt to transport materials. In order to ensure the conveying capacity of the conveyor, the conveyor is usually long and is a single piece of structure. This means that it can only transport materials to a specific height, making the conveyor a special-purpose device. When transporting materials at other heights, a separate conveyor is required, which is inconvenient. For example, utility model publication CN219313829U discloses a conveyor with adjustable conveying height, including a support plate, a first vertical plate, two symmetrically arranged first vertical plates fixedly installed on the top left end of the support plate; a second vertical plate, two symmetrically arranged second vertical plates fixedly installed on the top right end of the support plate; a drive roller, the rear end of which is connected to the inner side bearing of the rear first vertical plate, and the drive roller passes through the front first vertical plate and is connected to the front first vertical plate bearing; a driven roller, which is connected to the inner side bearing of the second vertical plate; and a conveyor belt, which is sleeved on the drive roller and the driven roller. This conveyor with adjustable conveying height facilitates the adjustment of the height of the conveyed material, and can meet the need to convey materials to different height positions. However, when outputting materials, the height can only be adjusted vertically, and it cannot be operated for unloading or loading.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a highly adjustable conveyor to address the aforementioned shortcomings. Utility Model Content

The locking block is rotatably installed on the outer side of the first connecting rod, and the locking pin is fixedly installed on the outer side of the second connecting rod. The front end of the locking block is engaged with the outer circle of the locking pin.
[0008] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes a clamping wheel, a connecting shaft, a fixed shaft, and a fixing block. The clamping assembly is respectively installed at the bends of the inclined conveyor frame and the first parallel conveyor frame and the second parallel conveyor frame. The clamping wheel is axially placed on the upper end face of the conveyor belt. One end of the clamping wheel is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft. The connecting shaft is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft. The fixed shaft is threaded in the fixing block and fixed by a nut.

This ensures that the conveyor belt maintains tension and prevents it from falling at bends.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] This utility model relates to a height-adjustable conveyor. The conveyor support is divided into a first parallel conveyor frame, an inclined conveyor frame, and a second parallel conveyor frame. The second parallel conveyor frame is supported by a telescopic rod, allowing its height to be adjusted arbitrarily. A guide rod is provided between the first and second parallel conveyor frames, allowing the inclined conveyor frame to be angled arbitrarily.

Figure 5 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the partial structure at point A in the middle.
[0026] In one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-5As shown, a height-adjustable conveyor includes a conveying mechanism 1 and an adjusting mechanism 2. The conveying mechanism 1 includes a conveying support 101, rollers 102, and a conveyor belt 103. The conveying support 101 includes a first parallel conveyor frame 1011, an inclined conveyor frame 1012, and a second parallel conveyor frame 1013. The two ends of the inclined conveyor frame 1012 are the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013, respectively. Locking components 3 and pressing components 4 are installed on both sides of the connection between the inclined conveyor frame 1012 and the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013. Rollers 102 are installed at both ends of the conveying support 101, and the rollers 102 are rotatably connected to the conveying support 101 and externally sleeved with the conveyor belt 103. The adjusting mechanism 2 includes a guide rod 201 and a telescopic rod 202. Guide rod 201 connects the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013. When the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 move horizontally, they slide horizontally guided by guide rod 201 to prevent twisting. Guide rod 201 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013, and guide rod 201 is telescopic. Telescopic rod 202 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 to adjust the height of the second parallel conveyor frame 1013.
[0027] In one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the locking assembly 3 includes a first connecting rod 301, a second connecting rod 302, a rotating shaft 303, a locking block 304, and a locking pin 305. The first connecting rod 301 is fixedly installed at the front end of the first parallel conveyor frame 1011, and the second connecting rod 302 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the inclined conveyor frame 1012. The first connecting rod 301 and the second connecting rod 302 are hinged together by the rotating shaft 303. The locking block 304 is rotatably mounted on the outer side of the first connecting rod 301, and the locking pin 305 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the second connecting rod 302. The front end of the locking block 304 is engaged with the outer circle of the locking pin 305. The locking assembly 3 is also installed between the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 and the inclined conveyor frame 1012.
[0028] In one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the clamping assembly 4 includes a clamping wheel 401, a connecting shaft 402, a fixed shaft 403, and a fixing block 404. The clamping assembly 4 is installed at the bends of the inclined conveyor frame 1012, the first parallel conveyor frame 1011, and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013. The clamping wheel 401 is axially positioned on the upper end face of the conveyor belt 103. One end of the clamping wheel 401 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 402. The connecting shaft 402 has a circular hole, and a pin is installed in the circular hole to allow the connecting shaft 402 to rotate and be installed in the fixed shaft 403. The fixed shaft 403 is threaded into the fixing block 404 and fixed by a nut.
[0029] In one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the telescopic rod 202 of the second parallel conveyor 1013 is located outside the first parallel conveyor 1011. When the conveyor is folded, the second parallel conveyor 1013 extends into the outside of the first parallel conveyor 1011, reducing the space occupied.
[0030] In one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, casters 5 are provided at the lower ends of the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 to facilitate their movement. Each caster 5 is equipped with a locking mechanism, which is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The locking mechanism effectively prevents the casters 5 from twisting during the operation of the conveyor.
[0031] In one specific implementation, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, baffles 6 are provided on both ends of the return side of the first parallel conveyor 1011, the inclined conveyor 1012, and the second parallel conveyor 1013. The baffles 6 are located on the lower end face of the conveyor belt 103. This ensures that the conveyor belt 103 maintains a consistent tension and prevents it from falling at bends.
[0032] The operation of this height-adjustable conveyor is as follows: First, the telescopic rod 202 is activated to raise the second parallel conveyor frame 1013. The rear end of the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 is equipped with a first connecting rod 301. The first connecting rod 301 and the second connecting rod 302 are hinged together via a rotating shaft 303. When the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 is raised, the first connecting rod 301 drives the second connecting rod 302 to rotate around the rotating shaft 303, causing the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 to move backward. After the tilting conveyor frame 1012 is opened, the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 stops rising. Then, the height of the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 is adjusted according to the height of the material to be conveyed. When adjusting the height of the second parallel conveyor frame 1013, the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 moves back and forth under the drive of the locking assembly 3. Guide rods 201 are installed at the lower ends of the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013. The guide rods 201 are telescopic; when the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 move horizontally, they slide along the axial direction of the guide rods 201, preventing twisting during horizontal sliding. After adjusting to the appropriate position, the locking block 304 on the locking assembly 3 is engaged with the locking pin 305 to prevent the conveyor belt 103 from sliding again. After fixing the position, both the first parallel conveyor frame 1011 and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 are equipped with casters 5 at their lower ends. Each caster 5 has a locking mechanism to lock it in place, preventing it from sliding. After adjusting the height and angle of the conveyor belt 103, rotate the pressure roller 401 installed on the side of the conveyor belt 103 to the upper end of the conveyor belt 103, and use the nut to fix the fixed shaft 403 to prevent the conveyor belt 103 from warping at the bends and affecting the transmission of the conveyor belt 103. The return sides of the first parallel conveyor frame 1011, the inclined conveyor frame 1012, and the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 are all equipped with baffles 6, located on the lower end face of the conveyor belt 103. This ensures that the conveyor belt 103 maintains tension and prevents it from falling at the bends. After the conveyor is used, loosen the pressure roller 401 and move it to the side of the conveyor belt 103. Remove the locking block 304 between the drive belts from the locking pin 305. Raise the second parallel conveyor frame 1013, unlock the universal wheel 5 at the lower end of the second parallel conveyor frame 1013, and move the second parallel conveyor frame 1013 forward. The tilting conveyor 1012 rotates around the pivot 303 of the locking assembly 3 until the second parallel conveyor 1013 extends into the first parallel conveyor 1011. The telescopic rod 202 is then adjusted to lower the second parallel conveyor 1013. This reduces the space it occupies.

Similar or identical parts between embodiments can be referred to interchangeably. For the apparatus disclosed in the embodiments, since they correspond to the methods disclosed in the embodiments, the description is relatively simple; relevant parts can be referred to the method section.
