Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of roller group, specifically, and particularly relates to an adjustable spring buffer roller group. BACKGROUND
[0002] The roller group is an important component of the belt conveyor, and is widely used in the material conveying system of many industries such as mines, ports, electric power, metallurgy and chemical industry. It is mainly composed of rollers, supports and related connecting parts. The roller is usually cylindrical and arranged on the conveying belt at a certain interval, which plays a key role in supporting the conveying belt and its load. In the material conveying process, the roller rotates around its axis to reduce the friction between the conveying belt and the roller, and to ensure the smooth and efficient operation of the conveying belt.
[0003] The spring buffering degree of the traditional roller group is fixed, and cannot be adjusted according to the change of the actual working condition. When the flow of the conveyed material is large and the material is large, the spring with fixed buffering degree cannot provide sufficient buffering force, which makes the impact force borne by the conveying belt too large, accelerates the wear of the conveying belt, and frequent replacement of the conveying belt not only increases the maintenance cost, but also causes production interruption and affects production efficiency.
[0004] At present, no effective solution has been proposed for the problems in the related art. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0005] In view of the problems in the related art, the utility model provides an adjustable spring buffer roller group to overcome the above technical problems existing in the prior art.
[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model is realized by the following technical scheme:
[0007] The utility model is an adjustable spring buffer roller group, which comprises a base, a fixed cylinder is symmetrically fixed and installed in the middle part of the base, a first spring is arranged in the inner cavity of each fixed cylinder, a connecting rod is fixedly installed at the top of the first spring, the connecting rod is slidingly installed on the fixed cylinder, a rotating adjusting mechanism is arranged at the bottom of each first spring, the rotating adjusting mechanisms are connected by a chain, a first roller is arranged between the connecting rods, a second roller is arranged at the end of each connecting rod away from each other, a support frame is arranged at the end of each second roller away from each other, the support frames are rotatably installed at the bottom of the base, a buffer mechanism is rotatably installed at the middle part of each support frame, and the other end of the buffer mechanism is rotatably installed on the base.
[0008] Further, the fixed cylinder is symmetrically provided with a sliding groove, the rotating adjusting mechanism comprises a moving disc, the moving disc is fixedly installed on the first spring, and the moving disc is slidingly installed in the sliding groove on the fixed cylinder.
[0009] Further, threaded rods are threadedly installed at two ends of the moving disc, the threaded rods are rotationally installed on the base, and the bottoms of the two threaded rods are fixedly installed with rotating gears.
[0010] Further, the rotating adjusting mechanism further comprises gear plates, the gear plates are engaged with the rotating gears, the two gear plates are rotationally installed on the base, and the chain is arranged on the two gear plates.
[0011] Further, the two buffer mechanisms each comprise a rotating rod, and the two rotating rods are rotationally installed at the middle portions of the two support frames.
[0012] Further, connecting blocks are fixedly installed at one end of the two rotating rods, and second springs are fixedly installed at one end of the two connecting blocks.
[0013] Further, rotating blocks are fixedly installed at the other ends of the two second springs, the rotating blocks are rotationally installed on the base, one end of the rotating block is fixedly installed with a sliding rod, the sliding rod is located in the second spring inner cavity, and the sliding rod is slidingly installed with the rotating rod and the connecting block.
[0014] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. When the material is placed on the conveying belt, the weight acts on the first supporting roller and the two second supporting rollers, and is transmitted to the first spring through the connecting rod. The traditional supporting roller group has many disadvantages in fixed buffering force when facing material changes. However, the supporting roller group can be adjusted according to the material flow and size. When the spring buffering force needs to be adjusted, the operator rotates the rotating adjusting mechanism by hand. Since the two rotating adjusting mechanisms are connected by the chain, when one of them is rotated, the other one will also rotate synchronously. The rotating adjusting mechanism changes the acting relationship with the bottom of the first spring, thereby adjusting the compression degree of the first spring, changing the elastic potential energy of the spring, and realizing the adjustment of the spring buffering force.
[0016] 2. In the material conveying process, if the material impact is large, the first spring can effectively absorb the impact energy after the spring buffering force is adjusted. At the same time, when the material impact is transmitted to the support frame, the buffer mechanism plays a role, one end of which is rotationally installed in the middle portion of the support frame, and the other end is rotationally installed on the base. Through the buffering effect of itself, the impact on the whole supporting roller group and the conveying belt is further reduced, the conveying belt can run stably and efficiently, and the problem that the traditional supporting roller group cannot adapt to different working conditions is overcome.
[0017] Of course, implementing any product of the utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all the advantages mentioned above at the same time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0030] When material is placed on the conveying belt, weight acts on first carrier roller 6 and two second carrier rollers 7, is transmitted to first spring 3 by connecting rod 4, and the buffer force of traditional carrier roller group is fixed when facing material change, and there are many disadvantages, and the carrier roller group can be adjusted according to the material flow and size, when the spring buffer force needs to be adjusted, the operator rotates rotating adjusting mechanism 5 with hand, since two rotating adjusting mechanism 5 is connected by chain 9 between, one is rotated, the other is also rotated synchronously, rotating adjusting mechanism 5 changes the action relationship with the bottom of first spring 3, so that the compression degree of first spring 3 is adjusted, the elastic potential energy of spring is changed, and the adjustment of spring buffer force is realized.
[0031] In the material conveying process, if material impact is larger, after adjusting the enhanced spring buffer force, first spring 3 can effectively absorb impact energy, and at the same time, when material impact is transmitted to support frame 8, buffer mechanism 10 plays a role, one end is rotatably installed in the middle part of support frame 8, the other end is rotatably installed on base 1, further reduces the impact on the whole carrier roller group and conveying belt through the buffer effect of itself, guarantees that the conveying belt can run smoothly and efficiently, and overcomes the problem that traditional carrier roller group cannot adapt to different working conditions.
[0032] In one embodiment, for the fixed cylinder 2, the sliding grooves are symmetrically arranged on the fixed cylinder 2, the rotating adjusting mechanism 5 comprises a moving disc 501, the moving disc 501 is fixedly installed on the first spring 3, and the moving disc 501 is slidingly installed in the sliding groove on the fixed cylinder 2.

[0035] When the conveying belt carries the material, the weight of the material is transmitted to the first spring 3 through the first idler 6 and the two second idlers 7 via the two connecting rods 4, and the spring buffering force of the conventional idler group is fixed and difficult to adapt to the change of the material, while the spring buffering force of the present idler group can be adjusted, when it is necessary to adjust the spring buffering force, the operator rotates the gear disc 504 by hand, the moving disc 501 is fixed on the first spring 3 and can slide in the sliding groove of the fixed cylinder 2, which ensures the stability and directivity of the first spring 3 during the extension and contraction process, the two ends of the moving disc 501 are threadedly connected with the threaded rods 502, the threaded rods 502 are rotatably installed on the base 1, and the bottoms of the threaded rods 502 are fixedly installed with the rotating gears 503, when one of the gear discs 504 is rotated, because the gear disc 504 is engaged with the two rotating gears 503, and the two gear discs 504 are connected by the chain 9, the rotation of one gear disc 504 can drive the other gear disc 504 to rotate synchronously, so that the two rotating gears 503 engaged with the two gear discs 504 are simultaneously rotated, the rotation of the rotating gear 503 drives the threaded rod 502 to rotate, because the moving disc 501 is threadedly connected with the threaded rod 502, the rotation of the threaded rod 502 drives the moving disc 501 to move up and down in the sliding groove of the fixed cylinder 2, and the movement of the moving disc 501 directly changes the compression degree of the first spring 3, so as to change the elastic potential energy of the spring, and realize the precise adjustment of the spring buffering force.
[0036] During the material conveying, if a larger material impact is encountered, the first spring 3 can effectively absorb the impact energy after the spring buffer force is enhanced by the above adjustment mode. At the same time, when the material impact is transmitted to the support frame 8, the buffer mechanism 10 starts to work. One end of the buffer mechanism 10 is rotatably installed in the middle of the support frame 8, and the other end is rotatably installed on the base 1. The buffer mechanism 10 further reduces the impact on the entire carrier roller set through its buffer characteristics, ensures that the conveying belt can run smoothly and efficiently, and successfully overcomes the problem that the traditional carrier roller set cannot adapt to different working conditions.
[0037] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned buffer mechanism 10, both of the buffer mechanisms 10 include a rotating rod 1001, and the two rotating rods 1001 are rotatably installed in the middle of the two support frames 8, respectively.

[0039] The other end of each of the two second springs 1003 is fixedly installed with a rotating block 1004, the rotating block 1004 is rotatably installed on the base 1, one end of the rotating block 1004 is fixedly installed with a sliding rod 1005, the sliding rod 1005 is located in the inner cavity of the second spring 1003, and the sliding rod 1005 is slidably installed with the rotating rod 1001 and the connecting block 1002.
[0040] During the material conveying, if a larger material impact is encountered, the first spring 3 can effectively absorb the impact energy after the spring buffer force is enhanced by the above adjustment mode. At the same time, when the material impact is transmitted to the support frame 8, the rotating rod 1001 is rotatably installed in the middle of the support frame 8. When the support frame 8 shakes due to the material impact, the rotating rod 1001 rotates, and the connecting block 1002 fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 1001 drives the second spring 1003 to move. The rotating block 1004 connected to the other end of the second spring 1003 is rotatably installed on the base 1, and plays a role of stable support. The sliding rod 1005 located in the inner cavity of the second spring 1003 has one end fixedly connected to the rotating block 1004, and is slidably connected with the rotating rod 1001 and the connecting block 1002. During the stretching and contraction of the second spring 1003, the sliding rod 1005 limits the radial displacement of the spring on one side, ensures the stable stretching and contraction of the spring, further buffers the influence of the material impact on the support frame 8 through the elastic deformation of the second spring 1003, thereby reducing the impact on the entire carrier roller set and the conveying belt, ensuring that the conveying belt can run smoothly and efficiently, and successfully overcoming the problem that the traditional carrier roller set cannot adapt to different working conditions.
