Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chain technology, specifically to a plate chain with four-sided riveted heads. Background Technology

[0002] Plate chains are a common conveying and transmission device, widely used in various fields such as machinery, automobiles, metallurgy, and mining. They consist of multiple connected chain plates and are typically used to carry and transmit power. They are usually designed to be compact and suitable for operation in confined spaces. The chain material is usually wear-resistant and can adapt to harsh working environments. The length and width of the chain can be adjusted according to requirements to meet different conveying needs.

[0003] Patent document CN2422488Y discloses an ultra-strong 16AC roller chain, "mainly used in chain drive devices on agricultural and industrial transmission machinery. This chain consists of an outer chain plate 2, an inner chain plate 3, a bushing 5, an inner chain plate, an outer chain plate, and balls 4 sleeved on the bushing, connected in sequence on a pin 1 to form a single-row chain. Two single-row chains are connected by a middle plate 6 to form a double-row or multi-row chain." However, the ultra-strong 16AC roller chain in the above-mentioned document mainly considers increasing the diameter of the pin, increasing the outer diameter of the inner and outer chain plates and the middle plate, and correspondingly increasing the inner diameter of the bushing and the balls 4 to increase the tensile strength and wear resistance of the chain, thereby extending the service life of the chain. It does not consider the lubrication of the chain during operation. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a device that can lubricate the chain. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a plate chain with four-sided riveted heads to solve the technical problem of chain lubrication mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a plate chain with four-sided riveted heads, comprising a frame and an oil tank, characterized in that: a plate chain is fixedly installed inside the frame, a sprocket is contained inside the frame, a baffle is fixedly installed on the outside of one side of the frame, and an oil tank is fixedly installed on the baffle.

[0006] Preferably, an oil pump and an oil inlet are fixedly installed on the upper part of the oil tank, an oil outlet pipe is fixedly installed on the oil pump, and a sealing cap is fixedly installed on the oil inlet.

[0007] Preferably, the flat chain is engaged with a sprocket.

[0008] Preferably, a nozzle is fixedly installed at the tail end of the oil outlet pipe, and the nozzle is directly facing the flat chain below.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0010] 1. This utility model, by installing an oil storage tank, an oil outlet pipe, and a nozzle, can keep the plate chain lubricated during operation, reduce chain friction and wear, and ensure the normal operation of the plate chain by timely lubrication. The oil pump draws lubricating oil from the oil storage tank and sprays it onto the plate chain through the nozzle of the oil outlet pipe. The sprocket drives the plate chain to rotate, which can better ensure that every part of the plate chain is sprayed with lubricating oil, so that the plate chain can be kept in a lubricated state for a long time.

[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A plate chain with four-sided riveted heads includes a frame 1 and an oil tank 5. The plate chain 2 is fixedly installed inside the frame 1, and the frame 1 contains a sprocket 3. A baffle 4 is fixedly installed on the outside of one side of the frame 1, and the oil tank 5 is fixedly installed on the baffle 4. Before using the plate chain, the baffle 4 is installed on the outside of the frame 1, and the baffle 4 fixes the oil tank 5 outside the frame 1, making the oil tank 5 stationary. When the plate chain moves, the sprocket 3 and the plate chain 2 cooperate to move and are fixedly installed inside the frame 1.

[0017] Please see Figure 3An oil pump 10 and an oil inlet 8 are fixedly installed on the upper part of the oil storage tank 5. An oil outlet pipe 6 is fixedly installed on the oil pump 10, and a sealing cover 9 is fixedly installed on the oil inlet 8. The oil pump 10 draws lubricating oil from the oil storage tank 5, so that the lubricating oil enters the oil outlet pipe 6, and then sprays it out from the nozzle 7 installed on the oil outlet pipe 6. When the lubricating oil is used up, the sealing cover 9 at the oil inlet 8 on the oil storage tank 5 can be opened first, and then the lubricating oil can enter the oil storage tank 5 from the oil inlet 8 to replenish the oil storage tank 5.

[0018] Please see Figure 2 The flat chain 2 is meshed with a sprocket 3, and the rotation of the sprocket 3 drives the rotation of the flat chain 2.

[0019] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 A nozzle 7 is fixedly installed at the end of the oil outlet pipe 6, and the nozzle 7 is directly facing the flat chain 2 below. Lubricating oil is sprayed out from the nozzle 7 installed on the oil outlet pipe 6, so that the lubricating oil is sprayed onto the flat chain 2. During the movement of the flat chain 2, the lubricating oil will be sprayed onto different parts.

[0020] Working principle: When using the flat chain 2, the sprocket 3 drives the flat chain 2 to rotate in the frame 1. However, prolonged movement will cause friction and wear in some parts of the flat chain 2, which will damage the flat chain 2. It is necessary to lubricate the flat chain 2. A baffle 4 is installed outside the frame 1. The baffle 4 has an oil tank 5. The motor drives the oil pump 10 to move, so that the oil pump 10 draws the required lubricating oil from the oil tank 5 and sprays it from the nozzle 7 installed on the oil outlet pipe 6 onto the flat chain 2, so as to reduce unnecessary damage to the chain. During the rotation of the flat chain 2, the lubricating oil can be sprayed to different parts. When the nozzle 7 can no longer spray lubricating oil, the sealing cover 9 on the top of the oil inlet 8 installed on the oil tank 5 is opened, so that the lubricating oil can enter the oil tank 5 through the oil inlet 8, so as to replenish the lubricating oil in the oil tank 5.

[0021] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
