[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model discloses a semi-automatic tensioner installation mechanism, including a body 1. The top of the body 1 is provided with a cylinder 13 and a fixed seat 15 located below the cylinder 13. The top of the fixed seat 15 is provided with a limiting seat 16. The limiting seat 16 is provided with a limiting groove 161 inside. The top of the fixed seat 15 is provided with a tensioner assembly 18. The output end of the cylinder 13 is provided with a top head 14 corresponding to the limiting groove 161 and the tensioner assembly 18.

[0024] Specifically, an operating table 11 is provided on the top of the machine body 1, with one end of the operating table 11 extending to one side of the machine body 1. The fixed base 15 is provided on the top of the operating table 11. The design of one end of the operating table 11 extending to one side of the machine body 1 facilitates the user to place the assembled tension wheel assembly 18 and the unassembled tension wheel assembly 18.

[0025] Specifically, a support plate 12 is provided on the top of the operating table 11, and the cylinder 13 is provided on the top of the support plate 12. Support rods 121 are provided inside the four corners of the support plate 12. The bottom end of the support rods 121 is connected to the top of the operating table 11. The support rods 121, together with the support plate 12, are used to support the cylinder 13, ensuring the stability of the cylinder 13.

[0026] Specifically, at least one steel ball 162 is movably embedded on both sides of the inner wall of the limiting groove 161. One end of the steel ball 162 extends into the interior of the limiting groove 161, and the other end is provided with a spring. The spring continuously applies a resisting force to the steel ball 162. In use, the tension wheel base 181 to be assembled is placed into the interior of the groove 17, so that the top end of the positioning shaft 171 is inserted into the interior of the bearing 182. Then, the shaft 183 is pushed into the interior of the limiting groove 161. The shaft 183 abuts against the steel ball 162, and the steel ball 162 compresses the spring and retracts to avoid it. When the shaft 183 is in place, the steel ball 162 resets to limit the shaft 183. At the same time, the bottom end of the shaft 183 is opposite to the interior of the bearing 182, and the top end of the shaft 183 is coaxially opposite to the connecting shaft. The starting cylinder 13 drives the top head 14 down. As the top head 14 descends, the outward expansion of the connecting groove 141 first contacts the top of the shaft 183. With the continuous descent of the top head 14 and the guidance from the outside of the connecting groove 141, the top of the shaft 183 enters the interior of the connecting groove 141. At this point, the shaft 183 is more stable during assembly and will not shift. The cylinder 13 drives the top head 14 to continue descending. Finally, the top head 14 abuts against the shaft 183 and descends, pressing the bottom end of the shaft 183 into the interior of the bearing 182, completing the assembly of the tension wheel assembly 18. After assembly, the cylinder 13 rises to reset. The user manually lifts the tension wheel assembly 18 out of the interior of the groove 17, and then pulls the tension wheel assembly 18 horizontally, causing the shaft 183 to abut against the steel ball 162 and retract from the interior of the limiting groove 161, so that the next assembly operation can be carried out.

[0027] Specifically, the top of the fixed base 15 is provided with a groove 17, and a positioning shaft 171 is provided inside the groove 17. The top end of the positioning shaft 171 is inserted into the bearing 182, which can limit the depth of the bottom end of the shaft 183 inserted into the bearing 182, thus ensuring assembly accuracy. The groove 17 can limit the tension wheel base 181.

[0028] Specifically, the tensioner assembly 18 includes a tensioner base 181, a bearing 182, and a shaft 183. The bearing 182 is sleeved inside the tensioner base 181. One end of the shaft 183 is sleeved inside the bearing 182. The bottom of the tensioner base 181 is movably inserted into the groove 17. The top end of the positioning shaft 171 is movably inserted into the bearing 182. The top end of the shaft 183 passes through the limiting groove 161 and is coaxial with the top head 14.

[0029] Specifically, the bottom end of the top head 14 is provided with a connecting groove 141, the bottom opening of the connecting groove 141 is outwardly flared, and the outwardly flared bottom opening of the connecting groove 141 can guide the shaft 183.

[0030] Specifically, the bottom of the body 1 is provided with adjustable feet 111 and casters 112 located on one side of the adjustable feet 111. The number of adjustable feet 111 and casters 112 is not less than four. The height of the body 1 can be adjusted by the adjustable feet 111. After the height of the body 1 is lowered, the body 1 can be moved by the casters 112.

[0031] In summary, compared to the conventional method of manually assembling the tensioner assembly 18, this semi-automatic tensioner installation mechanism, with its fixed seat 15, limit seat 16, and top head 14, allows operators to focus solely on loading and unloading the tensioner assembly 18. Utilizing a single cylinder 13, it is simple to operate, significantly improving assembly efficiency while ensuring assembly accuracy. It also greatly reduces the labor intensity of operators, occupies little space, saves space, and features a streamlined and compact structure, making it economical and promising for future applications.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
