Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of idler roller technology, and in particular relates to an adjustable tilt idler roller assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Idler rollers are one of the most important conveying equipment for material handling. Multiple sets of idler rollers are usually used in combination. On the one hand, idler rollers provide support for the materials placed on them, and on the other hand, they provide a conveying effect for the materials placed on them. An idler roller set consists of multiple idler rollers connected to each other by a synchronous connection mechanism to achieve synchronous rotation.

[0003] A Chinese patent application (or patent) with publication number CN221987394U discloses an adjustable tilt roller assembly, including a base plate. Fixed stacks are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the base plate, and a lead screw is rotatably installed between the fixed stacks. A sliding sleeve is threaded onto the surface of the lead screw. Adjusting plates are hinged to both sides of the top of the base plate, and adjusting rods are hinged between the adjusting plates and the sliding sleeves. Fixed blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the base plate, and limit rods are fixedly installed between the fixed blocks. Sliding blocks are movably sleeved on the surface of each limit rod. In daily use, when the operator rotates the lead screw, the rotation causes the sliding sleeve to slide on its surface, which in turn causes the connecting rod to slide. This causes the two sliding blocks to move synchronously on the surface of the limit rods. By using the adjusting rod and auxiliary rod, the adjusting plate is lifted, thus lifting the adjustable roller on top of the adjusting plate.

[0004] The aforementioned adjustable idler roller assembly includes a lead screw, adjusting plate, adjusting rod, and auxiliary rod for adjusting the idler roller angle. Rotating the lead screw moves a slider, which in turn moves the idler roller to adjust its tilt angle. However, the idler rollers are extremely heavy, and manually rotating the lead screw to tilt them requires significant rotational force and is difficult to control manually. Furthermore, the adjusting plate is detachably fixed to the idler roller, but existing technology achieves tilt angle adjustment through the interlocking angles of two idler rollers, rather than adjusting the tilt angle of a single idler roller. This presents significant limitations in tilt angle adjustment. Therefore, we provide an adjustable idler roller assembly to address these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable tilt roller assembly, which achieves synchronous rotation of both ends of the roller body through a rotating component. This allows for better coordination with the adjustment component to raise and lower one end of the roller body, achieving tilt angle adjustment while avoiding motion interference. This solves the problems of the aforementioned adjustable tilt roller assembly.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model relates to an adjustable tilt roller assembly, comprising a base plate; an idler body is disposed on the top of the base plate, and rotating components are disposed at both ends of the idler body. The rotating components include bushings sleeved on both ends of the idler body, and connecting sleeves are disposed at the outer ends of the bushings. A rotating rod is inserted through the connecting sleeves, and adjusting components are disposed at both ends of the rotating rods. The adjusting components include rotating sleeves sleeved on the rotating rods, and a hydraulic rod is disposed at the bottom of the rotating sleeves. A slider is disposed at the other end of the hydraulic rod, and a lead screw is disposed on the slider. The end of the lead screw is connected to a motor.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a rotating frame is welded to the front and rear sides of the middle part of the base plate, and sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the rotating frame and the upper side wall of the base plate. The rotating frame is rotatably connected to both ends of the rotating rod through bearings.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a roller shaft is inserted at the center of the roller body, and rotating components are provided at both ends of the roller shaft; there are two roller bodies in total, and the bushings are sleeved on the ends of the roller shafts.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the bushing is fixedly connected to the connecting sleeve by bolts, and the end of the connecting sleeve is also inserted into the rotating rod, and the connecting sleeve and the bushing are rotatably connected.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that there are four rotating components, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the roller body. One end of the roller body is rotatably connected to the rotating frame through the rotating components, and the roller body is connected to the adjusting component through another roller body.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that there are four adjustment components in total, and two adjustment components form a group, and a group of adjustment components are respectively set at both ends of the same rotating rod, and the slider slides in cooperation with the slide groove.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the lead screw is connected to the slider via a drive nut, and the bottom end of the hydraulic rod is threadedly connected to the upper side wall of the slider; its telescopic end is detachably and rotatably connected to the rotating sleeve.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that the motor is located on the outside of the slide groove, and the frame is connected to the outer wall of the base plate by bolts; the motor is located inside the frame, and the motor is connected to the base plate through the frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model is an adjustable tilt roller assembly, including a roller body 2 and a rotating component 3. The rotating component 3 can be mounted on a base plate 1, and the rotating component 3 can rotate and connect the roller body 2 to assist in tilt angle adjustment.

[0028] Specifically, a rotating frame 101 is welded on the base plate 1. The rotating frame 101 is connected to the roller body 2 through the rotating assembly 3. The roller shaft 201 passes through the center of the roller body 2. The rotating assembly 3 includes a rotating rod 303 inserted in the rotating frame 101 and a connecting sleeve 301 fixed on the shaft end of the roller shaft 201.

[0029] Furthermore, one end of the connecting sleeve 301 is also fixedly connected to a bushing 302, and the bushing 302 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 303, and the rotating frame 101 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 303.

[0030] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: When the idler body 2 rotates during use, since its rotation is set on the roller shaft 201, the roller shaft 201 will not affect the rotation of the idler body 2. When the idler body 2 is tilted, the bushing 302 on the side of the center of the base plate 1 on the idler body 2 rotates around the rotating rod 303, and the rotating rod 303 is rotatably connected to the rotating frame 101.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] Please see Figure 4 Based on embodiment 1, an adjustment component 4 is also provided. The tilt state of the roller body 2 can be automatically adjusted by using the adjustment component 4, and the tilt angle is controllable.

[0033] Specifically, the adjustment component 4 is located at the outermost end of the roller body 2. The adjustment component 4 includes a rotating sleeve 401 sleeved on the rotating rod 303, and the bottom end of the hydraulic rod 402 is threadedly connected to the upper side wall of the slider 403. Its telescopic end is detachably rotatably connected to the rotating sleeve 401. The slider 403 is connected to the motor 405 through the lead screw 404.

[0034] Furthermore, the upper sidewall of the base plate 1 has grooves 102 at both ends, and the grooves 102 slide in cooperation with the slider 403. The lead screw 404 is located at the center of the slider 403. The motor 405 is externally attached to a frame 406, and the motor 405 is connected to the outer sidewall of the base plate 1 through the frame 406.

[0035] The operation process of this embodiment is as follows: When in use, the hydraulic rod 402 and the motor 405 work simultaneously to adjust the height and horizontal position, thereby canceling out motion interference, so that the roller body 2 can rotate around the rotating rod 303. When the hydraulic rod 402 works, one end of the roller body 2 on its shaft moves upward, while when the motor 405 works, it pushes the slider 403 to move in the groove 102 of the base plate 1 through the lead screw 404, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the hydraulic rod 402.
