DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0031] Example 1: As Figs. 1-2 The illustrated sunken trough-type idler includes an idler group that supports the conveyor belt 21 and an idler frame for mounting the idler group. The idler group includes several idlers that support the conveyor belt 21. The idler frame is provided in several groups. All idler frames are evenly arranged along the length of the intermediate frame 2. Each group of idler frames is arranged between the two intermediate frames 2 and is located above the intermediate frame 2 and is detachably fixed to it. When it is necessary to replace the idler in the idler group, the fasteners in the idler frame are removed, and the idler frame can sink between the intermediate frames 2. At this time, the idler group can sink with the idler frame and detach from the conveyor belt 21, maintaining a certain distance from the bottom surface of the conveyor belt 21, which is convenient for construction personnel to replace the idlers in the idler group.

[0032] Therefore, by setting up a roller frame that is detachably and fixedly connected to the intermediate frame 2, when it is necessary to replace the roller, the roller frame is disassembled, causing the roller frame to sink and drive the roller group to detach from the conveyor belt 21. This has the beneficial effects of not needing to use a pry bar when replacing the roller, greatly saving manpower and material resources, reducing labor intensity, avoiding damage to the conveyor belt 21 by the pry bar, and making the replacement of the roller efficient, convenient and effective.

[0033] Example 2: Based on Example 1, the connection method of the roller frame is optimized. The roller frame is connected to the intermediate frame 2 through the roller base 4, and the roller frame can move up and down along the side of the roller base 4.

Connecting seats 12 are welded to both ends of the idler beam 11, and the connecting seats 12 are connected parallel to the side of the idler base 4. For example... Fig. 2 As shown, the connecting seat 12 is a vertically arranged steel plate structure. The lower part of the steel plate surface of the connecting seat 12 is perpendicular to the idler beam 11. The connecting seat 12 is located between two idler bases 4 and is parallel to the side of the corresponding idler base 4. The idler beam 11 is used to support the idler group. Since the connecting seat 12 is parallel to the side of the idler base 4, it can move up and down along the side of the idler base 4. The idler beam 11 drives the idler group to sink away from the conveyor belt 21 for idler replacement.

[0035] Preferred, such as Fig. 2As shown, the left and right sides of the plate surface of the connecting seat 12 are respectively provided with vertically arranged long holes 121, and the two long holes 121 are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the connecting seat 12. The left and right sides of the side surface of the carrier roller base 4 are also respectively provided with mounting holes 41 corresponding to the long holes 121. The mounting holes 41 are connected with the corresponding long holes 121, the connecting seat 12 can move up and down along the side surface of the carrier roller base 4, and the mounting holes 41 can be connected with different positions of the long holes 121. The fasteners horizontally pass through the corresponding long holes 121 and mounting holes 41 to fixedly connect the two, and the fasteners can be selected as bolts and nuts matched with the connection. When the carrier roller group normally supports the conveying belt 21, the mounting holes 41 are fixedly connected with the lowest part of the corresponding long holes 121, so as to maintain the connection stability of the entire carrier roller frame. When the carrier roller needs to be replaced, the carrier roller frame is sunk to the fixed position, the mounting holes 41 are fixedly connected with the highest part of the corresponding long holes 121, and the carrier roller frame is fixed with the carrier roller base 4 before replacing the carrier roller, so as to improve the safety and stability when replacing the carrier roller. The length of the long hole 121 is matched with the sinking distance of the carrier roller frame.

[0036] Further preferably, the top of the connecting seat 12 is outwardly bent to form a bent portion 122, and the top surface of the bent portion 122 is fixed with a side support column 13. The middle part of the carrier roller cross beam 11 is fixed with two middle support columns 14, and the carrier roller group is installed on the side support column 13 and the middle support column 14. The side support column 13 and the middle support column 14 are used for directly installing the carrier roller group. Fig. 1 As shown, the present embodiment carrier roller group includes three carrier rollers, which are arranged in a "pin" shape on both sides of the carrier roller cross beam 11 and are arranged in parallel with the carrier roller cross beam 11. The three carrier rollers include a horizontally arranged middle carrier roller 22 and two obliquely arranged side carrier rollers 23. The middle carrier roller 22 is arranged on one side of the carrier roller cross beam 11, and the two side carrier rollers 23 are arranged on the other side of the carrier roller cross beam 11. The two side carrier rollers 23 are symmetrically arranged, and the roller shafts of the carrier rollers are clamped in the clamping grooves 24 at the top of the side support column 13 or the middle support column 14. The three carrier rollers together constitute a groove type carrier roller group. The bottom of the connecting seat 12 is bent towards the carrier roller cross beam 11 and is welded and fixed below the end part of the carrier roller cross beam 11.

Thus, the connecting seat 12 and the intermediate frame 2 are connected with the roller base 4 into an integrated structure, and when the roller is replaced, the connecting seat 12 can also sink along the roller base 4, so that the roller group is separated from the conveying belt 21.

[0040] In the above embodiment, the structure of the roller base 4 is preferably designed as follows: the roller base 4 is a groove-shaped structure formed by bending a steel plate, and its cross section is also groove-shaped, and the groove opening of the roller base 4 faces outward, and the side surface and the bottom surface of the roller base 4 are respectively detachably fixedly connected with the lower part of the connecting seat 12 and the surface of the intermediate frame 2 by two groups of fasteners, that is, the fasteners are used to connect the roller base 4 and the connecting seat 12 by penetrating the mounting holes 41 in the side surface of the roller base 4 and the long holes 121 in the connecting seat 12, and the fasteners are used to connect the roller base 4 and the intermediate frame 2 by penetrating the bottom surface of the roller base 4 and the surface of the intermediate frame 2, and the fasteners can be respectively selected as bolts and nuts matched in connection. Thus, the connecting seat 12 and the intermediate frame 2 are connected with the roller base 4 into an integrated structure, and when the roller is replaced, the connecting seat 12 can also sink along the roller base 4, so that the roller group is separated from the conveying belt 21.

[0042] Further, the spacing distance between the top of the connecting seat 12 and the top surface of the roller base 4 is in the range of 270mm-290mm, and in this embodiment, the spacing distance is 282mm, that is, the height of the entire roller frame that can sink is 282mm, which can neither affect the normal supporting and guiding effect of the roller frame on the conveying belt 21 through the roller group, nor make the roller frame sink to an appropriate height and leave enough distance with the bottom of the conveying belt 21 to facilitate the replacement of the rollers. The length of the long hole 121 of the connecting seat 12 is set according to the spacing distance and the diameter of the fastener, and the long hole 121 can be normally assembled with the mounting hole 41 of the roller base 4 when the roller frame normally supports the conveying belt 21 or disassembles the roller frame to replace the rollers.

[0043] When the rollers need to be replaced, the bolts at the upper and lower ends of the roller support 5 are unscrewed and removed from the connecting seat 12 and the top surface of the roller base 4, then the roller support 5 is taken out, then the two groups of long bolts that fix the top of the connecting seat 12 and the top surface of the roller base 4 are unscrewed and removed, and finally the two groups of bolts that connect the bottom of the connecting seat 12 and the side surface of the roller base 4 are removed. At this time, the roller frame can be moved along the side surface of the roller base 4 to the position where the top surface of the connecting seat 12 meets the top surface of the roller base 4, and the roller frame is clamped on the roller base 4 on both sides, and then the mounting hole 41 of the roller base 4 and the long hole 121 of the connecting seat 12 are fixed and connected at the highest position by the fastener.
