Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of coke oven scraper conveyors, and in particular to an external pressure chain wheel mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Coke oven scraper conveyors are widely used in the production process of coking plants to transport materials such as coke, coke powder, and tar. For example, during the quenching process, the scraper conveyor can scrape coke powder from the settling tank onto the dewatering platform for processing. In addition, it is used at the front of the coke quenching car to transport materials such as red-hot coke, coke briquettes, and tar to the tail coke hopper. The chain is the core transmission component of the scraper conveyor. Driven by the sprocket, it makes the scraper circulate on the track, thereby achieving continuous material conveying. The chain is directly connected to the scraper, transmitting power to the scraper, causing it to slide on the bottom of the trough and move the material. The chain tension directly affects the operational stability of the scraper conveyor. If the chain is too loose, it will cause the scraper to jump, the chain to fall off, or the chain to derail; if the chain is too tight, it will increase the dynamic tension load on the chain links, which may lead to chain breakage or increased equipment vibration.
[0003] Currently, there are two solutions for the chain in the coke oven scraper conveyor at the turning point: the first is to use a U-shaped wear-resistant steel plate to rub against the turning point. The consequence is that the chain and the U-shaped plate have double hard friction, resulting in a lot of material waste and frequent replacement of the U-shaped wear-resistant steel plate. However, replacing the U-shaped wear-resistant steel plate requires hot work, so production must be stopped and the furnace shut down before replacement can be done. However, this poses great risks and difficulties to safe production and improving productivity. Therefore, we propose an external pressure sprocket mechanism to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Depend on Figures 1-5 As shown, an external sprocket mechanism is disclosed, comprising an external transmission housing 1 and a coke oven scraper body 17. The coke oven scraper body 17 has a coke discharge trough inside. A central transmission shaft 2 is rotatably connected inside the external transmission housing 1. A positioning sleeve 3 is fitted on the outer wall of the central transmission shaft 2. The positioning sleeve 3 is fixedly connected to the external transmission housing 1. Three first sealing rings 4 are fitted on the outer wall of the central transmission shaft 2. Three annular grooves are formed on the inner wall of the external transmission housing 1. The inner walls of the three annular grooves respectively contact the outer walls of the three first sealing rings 4. The three first sealing rings 4 and the three second sealing rings 12 adopt an O-type structure to increase the sealing performance and play a role in dust prevention and waterproofing.
[0024] The outer wall of the central drive shaft 2 is fitted with a double-row roller bearing 5 and a spacer 6. The outer wall of the central drive shaft 2 is fitted with a one-way thrust roller bearing 7 and a first adjusting shim 8. The outer rings of the double-row roller bearing 5 and the one-way thrust roller bearing 7 are in contact with the inner wall of the external transmission housing 1. The double-row roller bearing 5 and the one-way thrust roller bearing 7 are used to assist the central drive shaft 2 in rotating, reducing friction and wear. The outer walls of the spacer 6 and the first adjusting shim 8 are in contact with the inner wall of the external transmission housing 1.
[0025] The outer wall of the central drive shaft 2 is threaded with a first parallel thread double cap 9. The outer wall of the external drive housing 1 is fixedly connected with a rear end cover 10. The outer wall of the external drive housing 1 is provided with an oil injection hole. An oil injection nozzle 11 is installed on the inner wall of the oil injection hole. Lubricating oil is provided through the oil injection nozzle 11 to reduce friction and heat generation in the external drive housing 1. The outer wall of the external drive housing 1 is fixedly connected with a front end cover 13. The inner wall of the front end cover 13 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the central drive shaft 2.
[0026] The outer wall of the front cover 13 is equipped with a tensioning assembly, which includes a wheel 14. The inner hole of the wheel 14 is lined with copper and has a transition fit with the central drive shaft 2. The wheel 14 rolls with the chain in the sealed coke discharge trough. Compared with the existing U-shaped plate, the rolling of the wheel 14 greatly reduces the coefficient of friction, slowing down the excessive and premature wear and replacement rate of the chain. The front cover 13 has three second sealing rings 12 inside. The three first sealing rings 4 and the three second sealing rings 12 completely isolate the external transmission box 1 and the water tank, preventing impurities and water from entering the interior of the external transmission box 1, thereby maintaining normal lubrication inside the external transmission box 1. Because the rolling bearing rotates flexibly, the operating load of the scraper conveyor is greatly reduced, the stability is significantly improved, and maintenance is convenient. Replacement only requires disassembling the bolts, avoiding hot work and avoiding the explosion risk in the gas operation area. Because the bearing can be effectively lubricated, the service life and stability of the pressure sprocket are consolidated, greatly reducing excessive maintenance costs, and making loss reduction and consumption reduction work a reality, laying a good foundation for normal production.
[0027] The outer wall of the central drive shaft 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the wheel body 14. The outer wall of the central drive shaft 2 is fitted with a second adjusting pad 15. The outer wall of the central drive shaft 2 is threaded with a second parallel thread double cap 16. Two wall plates 18 (the material of the wall plate 18 is Q235B-4mm) are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the coke oven scraper machine body 17. The outer wall of the positioning sleeve 3 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the wall plate 18.

The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art.
