In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connected" should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can refer to the internal communication of two elements. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model through specific circumstances.
[0024] Reference Appendix Figure 1-3 This embodiment provides a temporary support for a conveyor belt, which includes a clamping assembly 1, a support assembly 2, and a tray connected in sequence. The clamping assembly 1 can clamp the frame structure in the conveyor to fix the temporary support on the conveyor. The tray is located above the clamping assembly 1 and is connected to the clamping assembly 1 through a telescopic support assembly 2. The support assembly 2 can adjust the distance between the clamping assembly 1 and the tray. When using this temporary support, first connect the clamping assembly 1 to the conveyor securely, then extend the tray under the belt to be supported, extend the support assembly 2 to increase the distance between the tray and the clamping assembly 1, thereby increasing the distance between the belt and the clamped part of the clamping assembly 1, exposing the functional components of the conveyor under the belt, and creating operating space for workers to inspect, maintain, or replace new materials.
[0025] Since the conveyor itself has various models and structures, and the frame structure near the belt to be supported has different shapes, the clamping component 1 in this embodiment is configured to include abutment plate 11, connecting rib 12 and abutment plate 13 connected in sequence. The connection method between connecting rib 12 and abutment plate 11 and abutment plate 13 can be configured according to specific usage requirements. For example, one of abutment plate 11 and abutment plate 13 can be fixedly connected to connecting rib 12, and the other can be rotatably connected to connecting rib 12, or both abutment plate 11 and abutment plate 13 can be rotatably connected to connecting rib 12. In the above-mentioned rotatable connection method, the rotating shaft is parallel to the plate surface of abutment plate 11 and abutment plate 13. When abutment plate 11 or abutment plate 13 is rotated around it, the included angle between the two plate surfaces can be adjusted.
[0026] The rotating shaft selected in the above-mentioned rotating connection method can be a bolt. By loosening the bolt, the abutment plate 11 or the abutment plate 2 13 can be rotated, and by tightening the bolt, the abutment plate 11 or the abutment plate 2 13 can be fixed, so as to ensure the smoothness of adjusting the included angle between the two plates and the stability of the included angle after adjustment.
[0027] In this embodiment, the first abutment plate 11 is fixedly placed on the top of the connecting rib 12, with its plate surface perpendicular to the connecting rib 12. The second abutment plate 13 is rotatably placed on the bottom of the connecting rib 12, with its pivot using a bolt passing through the connection between the two. The first abutment plate 11, the connecting rib 12, and the second abutment plate 13 are constructed into a movable C-shape to clamp onto frame structures with different cross-sectional shapes, thereby fixing this temporary support.
[0028] In addition, internally threaded through holes can be made on abutment plate 11 or abutment plate 2 13, and bolts can be inserted into these holes as abutment members 14. By rotating the abutment member 14, its length between abutment plate 11 and abutment plate 2 13 can be changed to tighten frame structures with different cross-sectional shapes, thereby improving connection stability. For example, see attached... Figure 2 In this embodiment, the abutment plate 11 is provided with an internal threaded through hole perpendicular to its own surface, and the abutment member 14 can move in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the abutment plate 11.
[0029] The aforementioned retractable support assembly 2 includes a coaxially sleeved inner vertical support tube 21 and an outer vertical support tube 22. Each of the inner and outer vertical support tubes has several positioning pin holes 23 distributed along its length, with positioning pins 24 passing through these holes. By pulling the inner vertical support tube 21 and changing its overlap with the outer vertical support tube 22, the total length of the two tubes can be altered, thereby changing the distance between the support plate and the clamping part of the clamping assembly 1. Then, the positioning pins 24 are installed into the corresponding positioning pin holes 23 on the inner and outer vertical support tubes 21 and 22 for fixation.
[0030] In addition, the support assembly 2 also includes a diagonal brace 25. The outer walls of the inner vertical support tube 21 and the outer vertical support tube 22 are provided with a first groove 26 extending along their own length, and the bottom of the pallet is provided with a second groove 27 extending along its own length. The two ends of the diagonal brace 25 are slidably connected to the first groove 26 and the second groove 27 respectively, and can be fixed by the positioning locks 28 in the first groove 26 and the second groove 27. The diagonal brace 25 can improve the support stability of the pallet, and its sliding arrangement in the first groove 26 and the second groove 27 allows for adaptive adjustment during the adjustment of the pallet height, so as to ensure both the smoothness of the pallet height adjustment and the stability of the pallet support.
[0031] The positioning lock 28 can be configured according to specific usage requirements. For example, it can include a slider 281, a screw 282, and a sleeve 283. The slider 281 is slidably embedded in the first slide groove 26 or the second slide groove 27. One end of the screw 282 is fixedly connected to the slider 281, and the other end passes through the diagonal brace 25. The sleeve 283 is sleeved on the screw 282 to abut against the diagonal brace 25. When the sleeve 283 is loosened, the end of the diagonal brace 25 can slide. When the sleeve 283 is tightened, the diagonal brace 25 is abutted by the sleeve 283, and thus abuts against the outer wall of the first slide groove 26 or the second slide groove 27, preventing it from sliding. The shapes of the first slide groove 26, the second slide groove 27, and the slider 281 can be configured according to specific usage requirements. For example, their cross-sectional shapes can all be configured as T-shaped to prevent the slider 281 from falling out of the first slide groove 26 or the second slide groove 27.
[0032] To adapt to different operating conditions, in this embodiment, the pallet is configured to include a fixed pallet 3 and a movable pallet 4. The movable pallet 4 is rotatably mounted on at least one side of the fixed pallet 3. The inner vertical support tube 21 and the outer vertical support tube 22 are located at the bottom of the fixed pallet 3, and the second sliding groove 27 is located at the bottom of the movable pallet 4. By rotating the movable pallet 4, the end of the movable pallet 4 away from the fixed pallet 3 can be raised higher than the fixed pallet 3, adapting to the belt support requirements under different operating conditions. The rotating shaft connecting the fixed pallet 3 and the movable pallet 4 can also be a bolt or a hinge, configured according to actual needs. Furthermore, when the movable pallet 4 is raised, the diagonal brace 25 can be adjusted to accommodate its angle and provide stable support.
[0033] Reference Appendix Figure 1 In this embodiment, movable support plates 4 are respectively constructed on a set of opposite sides of the fixed support plate 3, and corresponding diagonal braces 25 are respectively constructed below the movable support plates 4. The two sets of diagonal braces 25 are connected to the first slide groove 26 and the second slide groove 27 respectively to ensure that the bracket has good flexibility and stability.
[0034] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The flexible and deformable clamping component 1 can adapt to the shape of the frame structure near different conveyors and belts to provide stable support for the bracket. The clamping and pressing action is used for connection, which will not cause irreversible damage to the structure of the conveyor itself. The telescopic support component 2 can flexibly change the height of the pallet, so that the pallet can raise the belt, expose the functional structure under the belt, and provide operating space for inspection, maintenance and replacement of new materials, which is conducive to improving work efficiency.
