Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of belt conveyor technology, specifically a turning belt conveyor. Background Technology
[0002] A turning conveyor is a type of conveying equipment in a material conveying system that enables the change of the direction of material conveying.
[0003] Currently used turning belt conveyors, for the sake of equipment structural stability and simplicity, have their supports fixed to fixed piles by welding, and the supports themselves are also welded fixed structures.
[0004] However, in actual operation, the fixing method of the fixed bracket lacks flexibility and removability. This unreasonable fixing method brings great difficulties to the maintenance of the equipment. On the one hand, the maintenance difficulty is greatly increased. Because the fixed bracket cannot be removed, maintenance personnel have to use destructive maintenance methods such as cutting the fixed bracket when dealing with drive roller, driven roller failures or replacing belts. This not only increases the technical difficulty and operational risks of maintenance work, but may also cause accidental damage to other parts of the equipment.
[0005] On the other hand, maintenance costs have increased significantly. Each repair requires a dedicated welder, increasing labor costs; simultaneously, cutting and re-welding the fixing brackets consumes considerable time and materials, further raising maintenance costs. Furthermore, the extended maintenance time leads to prolonged equipment downtime, impacting production schedules and causing indirect economic losses for the company.
[0006] Furthermore, when using a turning conveyor, the fixed connection method makes it difficult to effectively adjust the angle of the belt conveyor, affecting the applicability and flexibility of material conveying. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a turning belt conveyor to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a turning belt conveyor, comprising: a belt conveyor body and a column, a fixed shaft provided at the center of the top of the column, a connecting column provided on the outer side of the fixed shaft, an upper flange provided at the top of the connecting column, a fixed column provided at the top of the upper flange, a fixed column flange provided at the bottom of the fixed column, a connecting bolt provided between the fixed column flange and the upper flange, a fixed seat provided at the top of the fixed column, a top plate provided on one side of the fixed seat, a belt conveyor body provided at the bottom of the top plate, and a reduction motor provided at one end of the belt conveyor body at the bottom of the top plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the bottom end of the connecting column is provided with a lower flange, which is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft. The top of the column is provided with a fixing sleeve outside the lower flange. A semi-circular groove is opened on one side of the fixing sleeve, and a locking bolt is provided on the outer wall of the lower flange inside the semi-circular groove.
[0010] Furthermore, one end of the locking bolt is fixed to the outer wall of the lower flange, and the nut on the locking bolt abuts against the outer wall of the fixing sleeve.
[0011] Furthermore, the top plate has side plates on both sides of its outer wall, and the bottom of the column has a column base plate with through holes for connecting anchor bolts inside the column base plate.
[0012] Furthermore, a through hole that mates with a fixed shaft is provided in the center of the lower flange.
[0013] Furthermore, there are six connecting bolts, which are evenly distributed circumferentially on the fixed column flange.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] This utility model, through the setting of upright columns, fixed columns, and connecting columns, enables the conveyor body to be positioned above the material conveyor belt when the turning conveyor is in use, with the conveyor body and the material conveyor belt placed at a certain angle. When the material comes into contact with the belt of the conveyor body, the material turns through the guidance of the conveyor body.
[0016] When the belt conveyor needs to be repaired, the connecting bolts between the fixed column and the connecting column can be used to connect the belt conveyor. There is no need to cut the fixed bracket. Instead, the flange of the fixed pile can be directly removed, and the entire turning belt conveyor can be taken off for repair. Compared with welding, this saves manpower and repair time.
[0017] When it is necessary to adjust the guide angle of the main body of the belt conveyor, the bolts on the locking bolts are loosened, and the connecting column is rotated, which drives the fixed column and the main body of the belt conveyor to rotate together. The rotation angle is limited and guided by the semi-circular groove, and the angle of the connecting column is fixed by the locking bolts, thereby realizing the adjustment of the guide angle of the main body of the belt conveyor and improving the applicability and flexibility of the entire turning belt conveyor.
[0018] The parts of the device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a turning belt conveyor, comprising: a belt conveyor body 1 and a column 12. A fixed shaft 17 is located at the center of the top of the column 12, and a connecting column 8 is located on the outer side of the fixed shaft 17. An upper flange 9 is located at the top of the connecting column 8, and a fixed column 6 is located at the top of the upper flange 9. The fixed shaft 17 provides the mounting base for the connecting column 8 and other components, allowing the connecting column 8 to rotate around it. It is a key structural support point for adjusting the guide angle of the belt conveyor body 1, ensuring the feasibility of subsequent angle adjustment functions. The connecting column 8, as a bridge connecting the fixed shaft 17 and the upper components, plays a role in transmitting power and supporting the upper structure. It can also rotate around the fixed shaft 17, making it a directly movable component for adjusting the angle of the belt conveyor body 1, thus providing structural possibility for realizing the angle adjustment function.
[0026] The fixed column 6 has a fixed column flange 7 at its bottom end, and a connecting bolt 10 is provided between the fixed column flange 7 and the upper flange 9. The upper flange 9 provides a platform for the connection between the connecting column 8 and the fixed column 6. Through the flange connection, the fixed column 6 can be stably installed on the connecting column 8, while facilitating subsequent disassembly and installation operations, and providing convenience for equipment maintenance and angle adjustment. The fixed column 6 serves to support the top plate 2 and the main body of the belt conveyor 1, and other upper components, transferring the weight and force of the upper structure to the connecting column 8 to ensure the stability of the entire structure. It is a crucial link connecting the upper conveying components and the lower support components. The fixed column flange 7 cooperates with the upper flange 9, and the fixed column 6 is connected to the connecting column 8 through the connecting bolt 10. This flange connection method ensures both a firm connection and convenient disassembly. During equipment maintenance, the fixed column 6 and its components can be quickly removed, improving maintenance efficiency and saving manpower and time. The connecting bolts 10 achieve a fixed connection between the fixed column flange 7 and the upper flange 9. When the belt conveyor needs to be repaired, only these connecting bolts 10 need to be removed to remove the fixed column 6 and its connected components as a whole. This avoids the cumbersome operation of cutting the bracket when using welding fixation, and greatly saves manpower and maintenance time.
[0027] A fixed base 5 is provided at the top of the fixed column 6, and a top plate 2 is provided on one side of the fixed base 5. The conveyor body 1 is located at the bottom of the top plate 2, and a reduction motor 4 is located at one end of the bottom of the top plate 2 near the conveyor body 1. The fixed base 5 provides an installation position for the top plate 2, allowing it to be stably fixed to the top of the fixed column 6, ensuring the installation stability of the top plate 2 and the conveyor body 1 and other components below it, and ensuring the normal operation of the equipment. The top plate 2 serves as the installation foundation for the conveyor body 1, providing a support platform for the conveyor body 1, ensuring its stable installation and operation. The conveyor body 1 is the core component of the turning conveyor, used to realize the turning and conveying function of materials. With the support of the top plate 2, the conveyor body 1 can be stably positioned above the material conveyor belt, at a certain angle to the material conveyor belt, completing the task of guiding and turning the materials. The reduction motor 4 provides power to the conveyor body 1, driving the conveyor body 1 to rotate, enabling the belt to carry and convey materials, thus realizing the material conveying function.
[0028] A lower flange 11 is provided at the bottom of the connecting column 8, which is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 17. A fixing sleeve 13 is provided on the top of the column 12 outside the lower flange 11. A semi-circular groove 15 is opened on one side of the fixing sleeve 13, and a locking bolt 16 is provided on the outer wall of the lower flange 11 inside the semi-circular groove 15. The lower flange 11 provides the structural basis for the rotatable connection between the connecting column 8 and the fixed shaft 17. At the same time, it cooperates with the fixing sleeve 13 and the locking bolt 16 to fix and adjust the angle of the connecting column 8. It is one of the key components to realize the guide angle adjustment function of the belt conveyor body 1. This rotatable connection method allows the connecting column 8 to rotate freely around the fixed shaft 17, providing structural possibility for the adjustment of the guide angle of the belt conveyor body 1. It is the core motion mode to realize the angle adjustment function. The fixing sleeve 13 provides a limiting and guiding function for the rotation of the lower flange 11. At the same time, the semi-circular groove 15 opened on it can limit the rotation angle of the connecting column 8, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the angle adjustment. Furthermore, the fixing sleeve 13 cooperates with the locking bolt 16 to fix the angle of the connecting column 8. The semi-circular groove 15 limits and guides the rotation angle of the connecting column 8, ensuring that the connecting column 8 can only rotate within the set angle range. This guarantees the accuracy and controllability of the guide angle adjustment of the belt conveyor body 1, and avoids the normal operation of the equipment from being affected by excessively large or small rotation angles.
[0029] One end of the locking bolt 16 is fixed to the outer wall of the lower flange 11, and the nut on the locking bolt 16 abuts against the outer wall of the fixing sleeve 13. When it is necessary to adjust the guiding angle of the conveyor body 1, loosen the nut on the locking bolt 16 and rotate the connecting column 8 to adjust the angle; after adjustment, tighten the nut to fix the angle of the connecting column 8, thereby achieving the adjustment and fixation of the guiding angle of the conveyor body 1, improving the applicability and flexibility of the entire turning conveyor.
[0030] Side plates 3 are provided on both sides of the outer wall of the top plate 2, and a column base plate 14 is provided at the bottom of the column 12. Through holes for connecting anchor bolts are opened inside the column base plate 14. The side plates 3 can provide a certain degree of protection for the main body 1 of the conveyor belt, and can also be used to install lifting structures such as lifting rings, which facilitates the maintenance and hoisting of the main body 1 of the conveyor belt. The column base plate 14 provides a stable support foundation for the column 12, so that it can be firmly installed on the ground and ensure the stability of the entire turning conveyor belt.
[0031] The lower flange 11 has a through hole in the center that mates with the fixed shaft 17. This through hole allows the lower flange 11 to be fitted onto the fixed shaft 17, enabling a rotatable connection between the lower flange 11 and the fixed shaft 17. This ensures that the connecting column 8 can rotate smoothly around the fixed shaft 17, providing a structural basis for adjusting the guide angle of the belt conveyor body 1.
[0032] There are six connecting bolts 10, which are evenly distributed circumferentially on the fixed column flange 7. The even distribution of the six connecting bolts 10 circumferentially provides uniform connection force, ensuring the firmness and stability of the connection between the fixed column flange 7 and the upper flange 9, so that the fixed column 6 can be stably installed on the connecting column 8, bearing the weight and force of the upper structure, and ensuring the normal operation of the equipment.
[0033] When the turning belt conveyor is in use, the belt conveyor body 1 is located above the material conveyor belt, and the belt conveyor body 1 is placed at a certain angle to the material conveyor belt. When the material comes into contact with the belt of the belt conveyor body 1, the material turns through the guidance of the belt conveyor body 1.
[0034] When the belt conveyor needs to be repaired, it is connected by the connecting bolts 10 between the fixed column 6 and the connecting column 8. There is no need to cut the fixed bracket. Instead, the flange of the fixed pile can be directly removed, and the entire turning belt conveyor can be taken off for repair. Compared with welding, it saves manpower and repair time.
[0035] When it is necessary to adjust the guide angle of the main body 1 of the belt conveyor, the bolts on the locking bolt 16 are loosened, and the connecting column 8 is rotated, which drives the fixed column 6 and the main body 1 of the belt conveyor to rotate together. The rotation angle is limited and guided by the semi-circular groove 15, and the angle of the connecting column 8 is fixed by the locking bolt 16, thereby realizing the adjustment of the guide angle of the main body 1 of the belt conveyor and improving the applicability and flexibility of the entire turning belt conveyor.
[0036] Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
